Are these boons balanced vs each other?

Granting the PCs individual boons at the end of the next session and want to make sure they're more or less equally good:

  • (For a small PC): Count as either small or medium, whichever is more beneficial to you, for purposes of weapon size wielded, combat maneuvers, size modifiers, etc. (Amounts to about +1 damage, CMB, and CMD and fringe benefits)

  • (For an Evolutionist summoner): Gain archetype abilities 2 levels faster.

  • (For a dhampir cleric): Once per day, take d4 Con damage to reroll any one die roll or take a second full turn anywhere in the initiative order.

  • (For a melee fighter): Immunity to all defensive abilities that trigger on making a successful melee attack, such as a fire elemental's defensive burn or Thorn Body.

I think they're all about even except for the last one, which is too situational but I like the theme.


Why not also have him ignore the first 5 feat of an opponents reach for attack's of opportunities while charging? It feels like it fits the theme for the ability you though up. Together, those two boons could be very cool.

Good idea - but what about just negating one AoO per day? The first half is already dependent on enemy type and many of the PCs' opponents don't have reach.
