Insinuator Antipaladin, Selfish Healing and Greeds


Rules Questions

Liberty's Edge

The Insinuator Antipaladin from Agents of Evil gets Selfish Healing, which functions as Lay on Hands, but self only, and Greeds, which function as Mercies, but again self only.

The wording for both contains the lines "this is treated exactly like the Paladin's Lay on Hands class feature" and "this functions as the Mercy Paladin class ability", respectively.

That said, should they be able to use feats that enhance or modify those abilities, such as Greater Mercy, Extra Lay On hands, Reward of Grace, etc?

Obviously the feats that specify using the ability on other people would not be valid, but everything else should work due to the "treated as" and "functions as" wording, correct?

I'd allow it without blinking.

The strict RAW is not 100% clear - it might need to be named Lay On Hands to meet prerequisites. However, since the only place that matters is PFS (where the insinuator is illegal anyway), I'm not too worried about that. ^_^


Works for the same reason you can take Extra LoH with Touch of Corruption.
