Swashbuckler Initiative (Ex) - +2 Initiative.
Inspired Panache(Ex): Each day, an inspired blade gains a number of panache points equal to her Charisma modifier (minimum 1) and Intelligence modifier (minimum 1), instead of just her Charisma modifier.
Unlike other swashbucklers, an inspired blade gains no panache from a killing blow. She gains panache only from scoring a critical hit with a rapier. This ability alters the panache class feature.
Inspired Finesse (Ex): At 1st level, an inspired blade gains the benefits of Weapon Finesse with the rapier (this ability counts as having the Weapon Finesse feat for the purpose of meeting feat prerequisites) and gains Weapon Focus (rapier) as a bonus feat. This ability replaces swashbuckler finesse.
Charmed Life (Ex): At 2nd level, the swashbuckler gains a knack for getting out of trouble. Three times per day as an immediate action before attempting a saving throw, she can add her Charisma modifier to the result of the save. She must choose to do this before the roll is made. At 6th level and every 4 levels thereafter, the number of times she can do this per day increases by one (to a maximum of 7 times per day at 18th level).
Nimble (Ex): At 3rd level, a swashbuckler gains a +1 dodge bonus to AC while wearing light or no armor. Anything that causes the swashbuckler to lose her Dexterity bonus to AC also causes her to lose this dodge bonus. This bonus increases by 1 for every 4 levels beyond 3rd (to a maximum of +5 at 19th level).

Character History :
I was born and raised in Sandpoint. My father is literally 'a Father', Father Chelger Fespen, Cleric of Cayden Cailean. To me, he's Chel. And he's a great example of how I might have wanted to grow up.... Not! I was the result of a 'bender' between him and young lady barbarian. I think he challenged her to a drinking contest, and things, happened. She returned to Sandpoint a few months later, letting him know about me. She left a couple of weeks after I was born. I don't know her name, and don't really care. So I was raised by the priestly types around the temple.
Actually, growing up in and around the temple, and all of the priestly types was great. I didn't have any desire to join them, which made perfect sense since I also showed no aptitude with any sort of magic. I did like Cayden's favored weapon, and I'm pretty good with it. Actually, I think I'm very good with it! When I reached adult age I realized that I needed money of my own. I had earned some coin working at the temple and various odd jobs around time. I don't have any skills that would earn a lot, and stabbing someone with my rapier.... Nah!
I got a job with the Mercantile League, loading and unloading wagons and guarding them on the way to various cities. (Mostly Magnimar) The 'guard duty' was mostly in name only. No bandit group in their right minds would consider interrupting shipping considering the families in the area. And the local goblin tribes are hardly dangerous very far away from their tribal homes.
Hmm.... I was able to say that, until just recently. I had gone to Magnamar, planning to be back for the Swallowtail Festival. Unfortunately one of the wagon had a cracked axle and we were stopped for two days getting someone out to fix it. We got back in time to hear about the 'Heroes of Sandpoint', and how they'd repelled the savage attacks of the goblins. Now I won't argue that goblins can be cruel, and in numbers they can be dangerous. But the guard and sheriff was there, and I know some of the other people in town have weapons. If I had been there I would have skewered a few of the runts! I strolled around town, chatting with the people that had spoken with them. Most liked them. The few that didn't.... well, they don't like me either.
Well, I heard they'd gone out to Thistletop, wanting to deal with the goblins there I guess? I wasn't sure why. There were five tribes of goblins around the town, and several others if they wanted to range further. I followed them. When they retreated I hid to check out the area. Maybe they'd been beat back? I knew that tribe was strong, but they were the 'Heroes', right? I decided to sneak in, see what was still there....
Crap! They collapsed the place. Nothing to see.... I headed back home.
