Melee [◆] +1 striking rapier +18 (disarm, deadly (1d8), finesse, magical) 2d6+4 P
Ranged [◆] +1 returning star knife +18 (versatile S, agile, deadly (1d6), finesse, thrown 20 ft.) 1d4+4 P or S Precise Strike +4 damage to any melee attack, but if the attack is a finisher then damage changes to +4d6 precision damage Weapon traits and runes:
Agile (trait): The multiple attack penalty you take on the second attack each round with this weapon is –4 instead of –5. Deadly (trait): On a critical hit, the weapon adds a weapon damage die of the listed size; this is added after doubling the weapon’s damage. Finesse (trait): You can use your Dexterity instead of Strength to calculate your attack bonus (but not damage rolls) with this melee weapon. Versatile (trait): A versatile weapon can be used to deal an alternate damage type listed. Choose the damage type each time you make an attack. Disarm (trait): You can use this weapon to Disarm with the Athletics skill even if you don’t have a free hand. This uses the weapon’s reach (if different from your own) and adds the weapon’s item bonus to attack rolls (if any) as an item bonus to the Athletics check. If you critically fail a check to Disarm using the weapon, you can drop the weapon to take the effects of a failure instead of a critical failure. On a critical success, you still need a free hand if you want to take the item. Ghost Touch (rune): A weapon etched with this rune can harm creatures without physical form. A ghost touch weapon is particularly effective against incorporeal creatures, which almost always have a specific vulnerability to ghost touch weapons. Incorporeal creatures can touch, hold and wield ghost touch weapons (unlike most physical objects.) Thrown (trait): You can throw this weapon as a ranged attack, and it is a ranged weapon when thrown. A thrown weapon adds your Strength modifier to damage just like a melee weapon does. When this trait appears on a melee weapon, it also includes the range increment. Potency Rune: Magical enhancements make this weapon strike true. Attack rolls with this weapon gain a +1 item bonus, and the weapon can be etched with one property rune. Returning (rune): When you make a thrown Strike with this weapon, it flies back to your hand after the Strike is complete. If your hands are full when the weapon returns, it falls to the ground in your space. Shove (trait): You can use this weapon to Shove with the Athletics skill even if you don’t have a free hand. This uses the weapon’s reach (if different from your own) and adds the weapon’s item bonus to attack rolls as an item bonus to the Athletics check. If you critically fail a check to Shove using the weapon, you can drop the weapon to take the effects of a failure instead of a critical failure. Striking (rune): Increase the weapon damage dice to two instead of one Critical Specialization Effects:
Finishers [◆] (swashbuckler, finisher) You gain an elegant finishing attack you can make when you have panache. You gain the Confident Finisher action. Confident Finisher [◆] You make an incredibly graceful attack, piercing your foe’s defenses. Make a Strike with the following failure effect.
Unbalancing Finisher: [◆] You attack with a flashy assault that leaves your target off balance. Make a melee Strike. If you hit and deal damage, the target is off-guard until the end of your next turn. Bleeding Finisher: [◆] Your blow inflicts profuse bleeding. Make a slashing or piercing Strike. If you hit, the target also takes persistent bleed damage equal to your precise strike finisher damage (4d6). Exemplary Finisher: (Wit) If a Strike you make as part of a finisher hits a foe, you add the following effect to the Strike: The foe takes a –2 circumstance penalty to attack rolls against you until the start of your next turn. Panache You care as much about the way you accomplish something as whether you actually accomplish it in the first place. When you perform an action with particular style, you can leverage this moment of verve to perform spectacular, deadly maneuvers. This heightened state of flair is called panache.
Bravado trait: Actions with this trait can grant panache, depending on the result of the check involved. If you succeed at the check on a bravado action, you gain panache, and if you fail (but not critically fail) the check, you gain panache but only until the end of your next turn. These effects can be applied even if the action had no other effect due to a failure or a creature’s immunity. Tumble Through [◆] (move): You Stride up to your Speed. During this movement, you can try to move through the space of one enemy. Attempt an Acrobatics check against the enemy’s Reflex DC as soon as you try to enter its space. You can Tumble Through using Climb, Fly, Swim, or another action instead of Stride in the appropriate environment.
Wit style: You are friendly, clever, and full of humor, always knowing just what to say. Your witticisms leave foes unprepared for the skill and speed of your attacks. You are trained in Diplomacy and gain the Bon Mot skill feat. When you use Bon Mot, the action gains the bravado trait. Stylish Combatant: You gain a +1 circumstance bonus to skill checks with the bravado trait while in a combat encounter. While you have panache, you gain a +5-foot status bonus to your Speeds. (but see next 2 entries)
Precise Strike When you make a Strike with an agile or finesse melee weapon or agile or finesse unarmed attack, you deal 2 additional precision damage. If the Strike is part of a finisher, the additional damage is 2d6 precision damage instead. As your swashbuckler level increases, so does your additional damage for precise strike. At 5th, 9th, 13th, and 17th level, increase the amount of additional damage on a Strike by 1 and the additional damage on a finisher by 1d6. One for All: [◆ + ↺] With precisely the right words of encouragement, you bolster an ally’s efforts. Designate an ally within 30 feet; this action counts as sufficient preparation to Aid that ally. When you use the Aid reaction to help that ally, you can roll Diplomacy in place of the usual check and the action gains the bravado trait. Traits: Auditory, Concentrate, Emotion, Linguistic, Mental, Swashbuckler Opportune Riposte: [↺] Trigger: An enemy within your reach critically fails on a Strike against you.
Swaggering Initiative: [◇] Trigger: You are about to roll Initiative. You swagger readily into any fight. You gain a +2 circumstance bonus to your initiative roll and can Interact to draw a weapon. If you are the first to act in combat, you gain panache. Confident Evasion: Your proficiency rank for Reflex saves increases to master. When you roll a success on a Reflex save, you get a critical success instead. Weapon Expertise and Weapon Specialization: Your proficiency ranks for simple weapons, martial weapons, and unarmed attacks increase to expert. You gain access to the critical specialization effects of all weapons for which you have expert proficiency. You deal 2 additional damage with weapons and unarmed attacks in which you are an expert. This damage increases to 3 if you're a master and 4 if you're legendary. Reactive Strike: [↺] Trigger: A creature within your reach uses a manipulate action or a move action, makes a ranged attack, or leaves a square during a move action it’s using.
-------------------- Skills
Skill Feats:

When you do, Demoralize loses the auditory trait and gains the visual trait, and you don’t take a penalty if the creature doesn’t understand your language. Bon Mot: [◆] You launch an insightful quip at a foe, distracting them. Choose a foe within 30 feet and roll a Diplomacy check against the target's Will DC.
Cat Fall: (Granted by Stylish Tricks class feature 3) Your catlike aerial acrobatics allow you to cushion your falls. As a Master in Acrobatics, treat falls as 50 feet shorter. Group Impression: When you Make an Impression, you can compare your Diplomacy check result to the Will DCs of up to 10 targets you conversed with, with no penalty. The number of targets increases to 20 if you’re an expert. Untrained Improvisation: Your proficiency bonus to untrained skill checks is equal to Pilgrim’s Token: You carry a small token of protection from a site holy to your faith. You gain a wooden religious symbol for your deity for free. As long as this religious symbol is in your possession, when you tie an adversary’s initiative roll, you go first.
Slippery Prey:[/I] When you attempt to Escape using Acrobatics or Athletics, you reduce the multiple attack penalty for repeated attempts to Kip Up: [◇] (Granted by Stylish Tricks class feature 7) You stand up. This movement doesn’t trigger reactions. Rolling Landing: You land with quick rolls that help you keep your momentum. If you fall and don't take damage (usually due to treating the fall as a shorter distance), you can use your reaction to immediately enter a short roll when you land and Step. -------------------- General Feats, Ancestry Feats, and Misc Abilities Skilled Human: You become trained in one skill of your choice (Stealth). At 5th level you become an expert in the chosen skill. Cooperative Nature: You gain a +4 circumstance bonus on checks to Aid. Home Region Language: Varisian Clever Improviser: (Ancestry 5) You’ve learned how to handle situations when you’re out of your depth. You gain the Untrained Improvisation general feat. In addition, you can attempt skill actions that normally require you to be trained, even if you are untrained. Storied Talent: (Horizon Hunter’s Boon) Word of your skill and expertise is spreading, and you find that increasingly prestigious clients are prepared to pay for your services. When using Downtime to Earn Income, you can choose to attempt a task of your level. Toughness: Your body can withstand more punishment than most before succumbing. Increase your maximum Hit Points by your level. You reduce the DC of recovery checks by 1. Group Aid: Your upbringing emphasized teamwork, and helping your allies comes naturally to you. After you Aid an ally at a skill check that doesn't have the attack trait, you can also Aid any other ally who attempts the same skill check for the same purpose that round. You do so as a free action rather than a reaction. The preparation you did to help must still apply to the other allies, and you can Aid each ally only once. For example, if you helped lift up an ally to Aid them on an Athletics check to scale a wall, you could keep the same posture to give a boost to other allies attempting to scale the wall in the same round.

You have modified your wayfinder to absorb a small amount of your exhaustion, allowing you to continue exploring unhindered. When you purchase this boon, you apply its benefits to one wayfinder in your possession, granting you a special ability when the wayfinder is invested and in your possession. As an action [◆], you can reduce the severity of your clumsy, enfeebled, or sickened condition, reducing that condition’s value by 1. You can safely use this benefit once per adventure. You can attempt to use it a second time, overcharging the wayfinder at the risk of destroying it. When you do so, roll a DC 10 flat check. On a success, the wayfinder is broken. On a failure, the wayfinder is destroyed. If anyone tries to overcharge a wayfinder that’s already been overcharged, the item is automatically destroyed (even if it has been repaired) and does not provide the activated benefit. Special: You can apply multiple upgrades to a single wayfinder. Each upgrade only affects one wayfinder in your possession, chosen when the boon is purchased. If a wayfinder has multiple upgrades on it, you can only safely use each ability once per scenario.
