wearing armor with which she is not proficient applies its armor check
penalty to attack rolls and to all skill checks that involve moving,

within 5 ft. You may use this ability once per round.

Autofire as one of his soldier bonus feats.
AUTONOMOUS [GENERAL]
You have a knack for psionic self-sufficiency.
Benefit: You get a +2 bonus on all

AWESOME BLOW [GENERAL]
Prerequisites: Str 25, Power
Attack, Improved Bull Rush, size Large or larger.
Benefit: As a standard action,
the creature may choose to subtract 4 from its melee attack roll and
deliver an awesome blow. If the creature hits a corporeal opponent
smaller than itself with an awesome blow, its opponent must succeed on
a Reflex save (DC = damage dealt) or be knocked flying 10 feet in a
direction of the attacking creature’s choice and fall prone. The
attacking creature can only push the opponent in a straight line, and
the opponent can’t move closer to the attacking creature than the
square it started in. If an obstacle prevents the completion of the
opponent’s move, the opponent and the obstacle each take 1d6 points of
damage, and the opponent stops in the space adjacent to the obstacle.
BASIC TELEKINESIS [GENERAL]
You have begun to learn how to untap your psychic potential by moving
things with your mind.
Prerequisite: Latent Psychic
Ability
Benefit: You gain the
spell-like ability to cast Mage Hand three times per day.
BLIND-FIGHT [GENERAL]
Benefit: In melee, every time
you miss because of concealment, you can reroll your miss chance
percentile roll one time to see if you actually hit.
An invisible attacker gets no advantages related to hitting you in
melee. That is, you don’t lose your Dexterity bonus to Armor Class, and
the attacker doesn’t get the usual +2 bonus for being invisible. The
invisible attacker’s bonuses do still apply for ranged attacks, however.
You take only half the usual penalty to speed for being unable to see.
Darkness and poor visibility in general reduces your speed to
three-quarters normal, instead of one-half.
Normal: Regular attack roll
modifiers for invisible attackers trying to hit you apply, and you lose
your Dexterity bonus to AC. The speed reduction for darkness and poor
visibility also applies.
Special: A soldier may select
Blind-Fight as one of his soldier bonus feats.
A zealot may select Blind-Fight as one of his zealot bonus feats.
BODY FUEL [PSIONIC]
You can expand your power point total at the expense of your health.
Benefit: You can recover 2 power points
by taking 1 point of ability burn damage to each of your three ability scores:
Strength, Dexterity, and Constitution.
You can recover additional power points for a proportional cost to Strength,
Dexterity, and Constitution. These recovered points are added to your power
point reserve as if you had gained them by resting overnight.
Special: Only living creatures can use
this feat. You can take advantage of this feat only while in your own body.
BURROWING POWER [METAPSIONIC]
Your powers sometimes bypass barriers.
Benefit: To use this feat, you must expend your psionic focus. You can
attempt to manifest your powers against targets that are sheltered behind a
wall or forcefield.
The strength and thickness of the barrier determine your chance of success. To
successfully bypass the barrier with your power, you make a Psicraft check
against a DC equal to 10 + the hardness of the barrier + 1 per foot of thickness
(minimum 1). Assign a hardness of 20 to barriers without a hardness rating,
such as forcefields. Forcefields are assumed to have less than 1 foot of
thickness unless noted otherwise.
If a power requires line of sight (which includes most powers that affect a
target or targets instead of an area), you cannot manifest it as a burrowing
power unless you can somehow see the target, such as with clairvoyant sense.
Using this feat increases the power point cost of the power by 2. The power’s
total cost cannot exceed your manifester level.
CALLED SHOT [GENERAL]
You are adept at exploiting an opponent's weak spots with ranged weapons
Prerequisite: Precise Shot
Benefit: As a standard action,
you may make a called shot with a ranged weapon. Make a normal attack
with a penalty to hit up to your base attack bonus, and add the same
number to your damage.
Special: A soldier may select
Called Shot as one of his soldier bonus feats.
CHAIN POWER [METAPSIONIC]
You can manifest powers that arc to hit other targets in addition to the
primary target.
Benefit: To use this feat, you must expend your psionic focus. You can
chain any power that affects a single target and that deals either acid, cold,
electricity, fire, or sonic damage. After the primary target is struck, the
power can arc to a number of secondary targets equal to your manifester level
(maximum twenty). The secondary arcs each strike one target and deal half as
much damage as the primary one did (round down).
Each target gets to make a saving throw, if one is allowed by the power.
You choose secondary targets as you like, but they must all be within 30 feet
of the primary target, and no target can be struck more than once. You can
choose to affect fewer secondary targets than the maximum (to avoid allies in
the area, for example).
Using this feat increases the power point cost of the power by 6. The power’s
total cost cannot exceed your manifester level.
CHAOTIC MIND [GENERAL]
The turbulence of your thoughts prevents others from gaining insight into your
actions.
Prerequisite: Chaotic alignment, Cha 15.
Benefit: Creatures and characters who have an insight bonus on their attack rolls, an
insight bonus to their Armor Class, or an insight bonus on skill checks or
ability checks do not gain those bonuses against you.
Special: You cannot take or use this feat if you have the ability to
use powers (if you have a power point reserve or psi-like abilities).
CLOAK DANCE [GENERAL]
You are skilled at using optical tricks to make yourself seem to be where you
are not.

entirely obscure your exact position. Until your next action, you have total
concealment.

Benefit: You get a +2 bonus on all saving throws to resist powers.
Special: You cannot take or use this feat if you have the ability to use
powers (if you have a power point reserve or psi-like abilities).
CLEAVE [GENERAL]
Prerequisites: Str 13, Power
Attack.
Benefit: If you deal a
creature enough damage to make it drop (typically by dropping it to
below 0 hit points or killing it), you get an immediate, extra melee
attack against another creature within reach. You cannot take a 5-foot
step before making this extra attack. The extra attack is with the same
weapon and at the same bonus as the attack that dropped the previous
creature. You can use this ability once per round.
Special: A zealot may select
Cleave as one of his zealot bonus feats.
COMBAT EXPERTISE [GENERAL]
Prerequisite: Int 13.
Benefit: When you use the
attack action or the full attack action in melee, you can take a
penalty of as much as –5 on your attack roll and add the same number
(+5 or less) as a dodge bonus to your Armor Class. This number may not
exceed your base attack bonus. The changes to attack rolls and Armor
Class last until your next action.
Normal: A character without
the Combat Expertise feat can fight defensively while using the attack
or full attack action to take a –4 penalty on attack rolls and gain a
+2 dodge bonus to Armor Class.
Special: A soldier may select
Combat Expertise as one of his soldier bonus feats.
A zealot may select

all Disguise checks and Forgery checks.
DEEP IMPACT [PSIONIC]

Prerequisite: Str 13, Psionic Weapon, base attack bonus +5.
Benefit: To use this feat, you must expend your psionic focus. You can
resolve your attack with a melee weapon as a touch attack. You must decide whether or not to
use this feat prior to making an attack. If your attack misses, you still
expend your psionic focus.
DEFT HANDS [GENERAL]
Benefit: You get a +2 bonus on
all Sleight of Hand checks and Use Rope checks.
DELAY POWER [METAPSIONIC]
You can manifest powers that go off up to 5 rounds later.
Benefit: To use this feat, you must expend your psionic focus. You can manifest a power
as a delayed power. A delayed power doesn’t activate immediately. When you
manifest the power, you choose one of three trigger mechanisms: (1) The power
activates when you take a standard action to activate it; (2) It activates
when a creature enters the area that the power will affect (only powers that
affect areas can use this trigger condition); or (3) It activates on your turn
after 5 rounds pass. If you choose one of the first two triggers and the
conditions are not met within 5 rounds, the power activates automatically on
the fifth round.
Only area and personal powers can be delayed.
Any decisions you would make about the delayed power, including attack rolls,
designating targets, or determining or shaping an area, are decided when the
power is manifested. Any effects resolved by those affected by the power,
including saving throws, are decided when the delay period ends.
A delayed power can be dispelled normally during the delay, and can be detected
normally in the area or on the target by the use of powers that can detect
psionic effects.
Using this feat increases the power point cost of the power by 2. The power’s
total cost cannot exceed your manifester level.
DIEHARD [GENERAL]
Prerequisite: Endurance.
Benefit: When reduced to
between –1 and –9 hit points, you automatically become stable. You
don’t have to roll d% to see if you lose 1 hit point each round.
When reduced to negative hit points, you may choose to act as if you
were disabled, rather than dying. You must make this decision as soon
as you are reduced to negative hit points (even if it isn’t your turn).
If you do not choose to act as if you were disabled, you immediately
fall unconscious.
When using this feat, you can take either a single move or standard
action each turn, but not both, and you cannot take a full round
action. You can take a move action without further injuring yourself,
but if you perform any standard action (or any other action deemed as
strenuous, including some free actions, such as casting a quickened
spell) you take 1 point of damage after completing the act. If you
reach –10 hit points, you immediately die.
Normal: A character without
this feat who is reduced to between –1 and –9 hit points is unconscious
and dying.
DILIGENT [GENERAL]
Benefit: You get a +2 bonus on
all Appraise checks and Decipher Script checks.
DODGE [GENERAL]
Prerequisite: Dex 13.
Benefit: During your action,
you designate an opponent and receive a +1 dodge bonus to Armor Class
against attacks from that opponent. You can select a new opponent on
any action.
A condition that makes you lose your Dexterity bonus to Armor Class (if
any) also makes you lose dodge bonuses. Also, dodge bonuses stack with
each other, unlike most other types of bonuses.
Special: A soldier may select
Dodge as one of his soldier bonus feats.
A zealot may select
Dodge as one of his zealot bonus feats.
EMPOWER POWER [METAPSIONIC]
You can manifest powers to greater effect.
Benefit: To use this feat, you must expend your psionic focus.
You can empower a power. All variable, numeric effects of an empowered power
are increased by one-half. An empowered power deals half again as much damage
as normal, cures half again as many hit points, affects half again as many
targets, and so forth, as appropriate. Augmented powers can also be empowered
(multiply 1½ times the damage total of the augmented power). Saving throws and
opposed checks (such as the one you make when you manifest dispel psionics) are
not affected, nor are powers without random variables.
Using this feat increases the power point cost of the power by 2. The power’s
total cost cannot exceed your manifester level.
ENLARGE POWER [METAPSIONIC]
You can manifest powers farther than normal.
Benefit: To use this feat, you must expend your psionic focus. You can
alter a power with a range of close, medium, or long to increase its range by
100%. An enlarged power with a range of close has a range of 50 feet + 5 feet
per level, a medium-range power has a range of 200 feet + 20 feet per level,
and a long-range power has a range of 800 feet + 80 feet per level.
Powers whose ranges are not defined by distance, as well as powers whose ranges
are not close, medium, or long, are not affected.
Using this feat does not increase the power point cost of the power.

You learn another power.
Prerequisites: Manifester level 3rd.
Benefit: Add to your powers known one additional power of any level up to one
level lower than the highest-level power you can manifest. You can choose any

Benefit: To use this feat, you must expend your psionic focus.
You can manifest an extended power. An extended power lasts twice as long as
normal. A power with a duration of concentration, instantaneous, or permanent
is not affected by this feat.

total cost cannot exceed your manifester level.

HOVER [GENERAL]
Prerequisite: Fly speed.
Benefit: When flying, the
creature can halt its forward motion and hover in place as a move
action. It can then fly in any direction, including straight down or
straight up, at half speed, regardless of its maneuverability.
If a creature begins its turn hovering, it can hover in place for the
turn and take a full-round action. A hovering creature cannot make wing
attacks, but it can attack with all other limbs and appendages it could
use in a full attack. The creature can instead use a breath weapon or
cast a spell instead of making physical attacks, if it could normally
do so.
If a creature of Large size or larger hovers within 20 feet of the
ground in an area with lots of loose debris, the draft from its wings
creates a hemispherical cloud with a radius of 60 feet. The winds so
generated can snuff torches, small campfires, exposed lanterns, and
other small, open flames of non-magical origin. Clear vision within the
cloud is limited to 10 feet. Creatures have concealment at 15 to 20
feet (20% miss chance). At 25 feet or more, creatures have total

opponent, you automatically strike at the opponent you have chosen.

on the effects of cover and concealment. Without this feat, a character

Prerequisites: Dex 13, Dodge.
Benefit: You get a +4 dodge

A zealot may select Mobility as one of his zealot bonus feats.
MULTIATTACK [GENERAL]

MAXIMIZE POWER [METAPSIONIC]
You can manifest powers to maximum effect.
Benefit: To use this feat, you must expend your psionic focus.
You can maximize a power. All variable, numeric effects of a power modified by
this feat are maximized. A maximized power deals maximum damage, cures the
maximum number of hit points, affects the maximum number of targets, and so on,
as appropriate. Saving throws and opposed checks are not affected, nor are
powers without random variables.
Augmented powers can be maximized; a maximized augmented power deals the
maximum damage (or cures the maximum hit points, and so on) of the augmented power.
An empowered and maximized power gains the separate benefits of each feat:

total cost cannot exceed your manifester level.
MENTAL LEAP [PSIONIC]

powers (if you have a power point reserve or psi-like abilities).

attack of opportunity, you can use any power you know with a range of touch,
if you have at least one hand free.
Manifesting this power is an immediate action.
You cannot use this feat with a touch power whose manifesting time is longer
than 1 full-round action.
Using this feat increases the power point cost of the power by 6. The power’s
total cost cannot exceed your manifester level.
Normal: Attacks of opportunity can be made only with melee weapons.
OVERCHANNEL [PSIONIC]
You burn your life force to strengthen your powers.
Benefit: While manifesting a power, you can increase your effective manifester
level by one, but in so doing you take 1d8 points of damage. At 8th level,
you can choose to increase your effective manifester level by two, but you take
3d8 points of damage. At 15th level, you can increase your effective
manifester level by three, but you take 5d8 points of damage.
The effective increase in manifester level increases the number of power points
you can expend on a single power manifestation, as well as increasing all
manifester level-dependent effects, such as range, duration, and overcoming
power resistance.
Normal: Your manifester level is equal to your total levels in classes that
manifest powers.

POWER ATTACK [GENERAL]
Prerequisite: Str 13.
Benefit: On your action,
before making attack rolls for a round, you may choose to subtract a
number from all melee attack rolls and add the same number to all melee
damage rolls. This number may not exceed your base attack bonus. The
penalty on attacks and bonus on damage apply until your next turn.
Special: If you attack with a
two-handed weapon, or with a one-handed weapon wielded in two hands,
instead add twice the number subtracted from your attack rolls. You
can’t add the bonus from Power Attack to the damage dealt with a light
weapon (except with unarmed strikes or natural weapon attacks), even
though the penalty on attack rolls still applies. (Normally, you treat
a double weapon as a one-handed weapon and a light weapon. If you
choose to use a double weapon like a two-handed weapon, attacking with
only one end of it in a round, you treat it as a two-handed weapon.)
A zealot may select Power Attack as one of his zealot bonus feats.
POWER PENETRATION [PSIONIC]
Your powers are especially potent, breaking through power resistance more
readily than normal.
Benefit: To use this feat, you must expend your psionic focus. You get a
+4 bonus on manifester level checks made to overcome a creature’s power resistance.
POWER SPECIALIZATION [PSIONIC]
You deal more damage with your powers.
Prerequisites: Weapon Focus (ray), manifester level 4th.
Benefit: With rays and ranged touch attack powers that deal damage, you deal
an extra 2 points of damage. If you expend your psionic focus when you
manifest a ray or a ranged touch attack power that deals damage, you add your
key ability bonus to the damage (instead of adding 2).

You must have line of sight to the opponent at the start of your turn.
PSIONIC DODGE [PSIONIC]
You are proficient at dodging blows.
Prerequisite: Dex 13, Dodge.

You can endow your manifestations with more concentrated focus.
Benefit: To use this feat, you must expend your psionic focus. You add 1 to the
save DC of a power you manifest.
PSIONIC FIST [PSIONIC]

If your attack misses, you still expend your psionic focus.
PSIONIC HOLE [GENERAL]
You are anathema to psionic creatures and characters.
Prerequisite: Con 15.
Benefit: When a foe strikes you in melee combat, the foe immediately loses its
psionic focus, if any. Also, if you are the target of a power, the manifester
of the power must spend an additional number of power points equal to your
Wisdom bonus, or the power fails (all the power points spent on the power are
still lost). This extra cost does not count toward the maximum power points a
manifester can spend on a single power.
Special: You cannot take or use this feat if you have the ability to use powers
(if you have a power point reserve or psi-like abilities).
PSIONIC MEDITATION[PSIONIC]

Prerequisite: Point Blank Shot.
Benefit: To use this feat, you must expend your psionic focus. Your ranged
attack deals +2d6 points of damage. You must decide whether or not to use this
feat prior to making an attack. If your attack misses, you still expend your
psionic focus.
PSIONIC TALENT [PSIONIC]
You gain additional power points to supplement those you already had.
Prerequisite: Having a power point reserve.
Benefit: When you take this feat for the first time, you gain 2 power points.
Special: You can take this feat multiple times. Each time you take the feat
after the first time, the number of power points you gain increases by 1.
PSIONIC WEAPON [PSIONIC]
You can charge your melee weapon with additional damage potential.
Prerequisite: Str 13.
Benefit: To use this feat, you must expend your psionic focus.
Your attack with a melee weapon deals an extra 2d6 points of damage. You must
decide whether or not to use this feat prior to making an attack. If your
attack misses, you still expend your psionic focus.
QUICK DRAW [GENERAL]
Prerequisite: Base attack bonus
+1.
Benefit: You can draw a weapon
as a free action instead of as a move action. You can draw a hidden
weapon (see the Sleight of Hand skill) as a move action.

may draw a weapon as a move action, or (if your base attack bonus is +1
or higher) as a free action as part of movement. Without this feat, you
can draw a hidden weapon as a standard action.
Special: A soldier may select
Quick Draw as one of his soldier bonus feats.
A zealot may select Quick Draw as one of his zealot bonus feats.
QUICKEN POWER [METAPSIONIC]
You can manifest a power with a moment’s thought.
Benefit: To use this feat, you must expend your psionic focus. You can
quicken a power. You can perform another action, even manifest another power,
in the same round that you manifest a quickened power. You can manifest only
one quickened power per round. A power whose manifesting time is longer than
1 round cannot be quickened.
Using this feat increases the power point cost of the power by 6. The power’s
total cost cannot exceed your manifester level.
Manifesting a quickened power does not provoke attacks of opportunity.
RAPID METABOLISM [GENERAL]
Your wounds heal rapidly.
Prerequisite: Con 13.
Benefit: You naturally heal a number of hit points per day equal to the
standard healing rate + double your Constitution bonus. You heal even if you

tended successfully by someone with the Heal skill, you instead regain double
the normal amount of hit points + double your Constitution bonus.
RAPID SHOT [GENERAL]
Prerequisites: Dex 13, Point
Blank Shot.
Benefit: You can get one extra
attack per round with a ranged weapon. The attack is at your highest
base attack bonus, but each attack you make in that round (the extra

attack action to use this feat.
Special: A soldier may select
Rapid Shot as one of his soldier bonus feats.
RECKLESS OFFENSE [GENERAL]
You can shift your focus from defense to offense.
Prerequisite: Base attack bonus +1.

move five times your normal speed (if wearing medium, light, or no
armor and carrying no more than a medium load) or four times your speed
(if wearing heavy armor or carrying a heavy load). If you make a jump
after a running start (see the Jump skill description), you gain a +4
bonus on your Jump check. While running, you retain your Dexterity
bonus to AC.
Normal: You move four times
your speed while running (if wearing medium, light, or no armor and
carrying no more than a medium load) or three times your speed (if
wearing heavy armor or carrying a heavy load), and you lose your
Dexterity bonus to AC.
SELF-SUFFICIENT [GENERAL]

all Heal checks and Survival checks.
SHOT ON THE RUN [GENERAL]
Prerequisites: Dex 13, Dodge,
Mobility, Point Blank Shot, base attack bonus +4.
Benefit: When using the attack
action with a ranged weapon, you can move both before and after the
attack, provided that your total distance moved is not greater than
your speed.
Special: A soldier may select
Shot on the Run as one of his soldier bonus feats.
SIDESTEP CHARGE [GENERAL]
You are skilled at dodging past charging opponents and taking advantage when they miss.
Prerequisite: Dex 13, Dodge.
Benefit: You get a +4 dodge bonus to Armor Class against charge attacks. If a
charging opponent fails to make a successful attack against you, you gain
an immediate attack of opportunity. This feat does not grant you more attacks
of opportunity than you are normally allowed in a round. If you are flat-footed
or otherwise denied your Dexterity bonus to Armor Class, you do not gain the
benefit of this feat.
SKILL FOCUS [GENERAL]
Choose a skill.
Benefit: You get a +3 bonus on
all checks involving that skill.
Special: You can gain this
feat multiple times. Its effects do not stack. Each time you take the
feat, it applies to a new skill.
SNATCH [GENERAL]
Prerequisite: Size Huge or
larger.
Benefits: The creature can
choose to start a grapple when it hits with a claw or bite attack, as
though it had the improved grab special attack. If the creature gets a
hold on a creature three or more sizes smaller, it squeezes each round
for automatic bite or claw damage. A snatched opponent held in the
creature’s mouth is not allowed a Reflex save against the creature’s
breath weapon, if it has one.
The creature can drop a creature it has snatched as a free action or
use a standard action to fling it aside. A flung creature travels 1d6 x
10 feet, and takes 1d6 points of damage per 10 feet traveled. If the
creature flings a snatched opponent while flying, the opponent takes
this amount or falling damage, whichever is greater.
SPEED OF THOUGHT [PSIONIC]
The energy of your mind energizes the alacrity of your body.
Prerequisite: Wis 13.
Benefit: As long as you are psionically focused and not wearing heavy armor,
you gain an insight bonus to your speed of 10 feet.
SPLIT PSIONIC RAY [METAPSIONIC]
You can affect two targets with a single ray.
Prerequisite: Any other metapsionic feat.
Benefit: To use this feat, you must expend your psionic focus. You can split
psionic rays you manifest. The split ray affects any two targets that are
both within the power’s range and within 30 feet of each other. If the ray
deals damage, each target takes as much damage as a single target would take.
Using this feat increases the power point cost of the power by 2.
SPRING ATTACK [GENERAL]
Prerequisites: Dex 13, Dodge,
Mobility, base attack bonus +4.
Benefit: When using the attack
action with a melee weapon, you can move both before and after the
attack, provided that your total distance moved is not greater than
your speed. Moving in this way does not provoke an attack of
opportunity from the defender you attack, though it might provoke
attacks of opportunity from other creatures, if appropriate. You can’t
use this feat if you are wearing heavy armor.
You must move at least 5 feet both before and after you make your
attack in order to utilize the benefits of Spring Attack.
Special: A zealot may select
Spring Attack as one of his zealot bonus feats.
STAND STILL [GENERAL]
You can prevent foes from fleeing or closing.
Prerequisite: Str 13.
Benefit: When a foe’s movement out of a square you threaten grants you an
attack of opportunity, you can give up that attack and instead attempt to
stop your foe in his tracks. Make your attack of opportunity normally. If
you hit your foe, he must succeed on a Reflex save against a DC of 10 + your
damage roll (the opponent does not actually take damage), or immediately halt
as if he had used up his move actions for the round.
Since you use the Stand Still feat in place of your attack of opportunity,
you can do so only a number of times per round equal to the number of times
per round you could make an attack of opportunity (normally just one).
Normal: Attacks of opportunity cannot halt your foes in their tracks.
STEALTHY [GENERAL]
Benefit: You get a +2 bonus on
all Hide checks and Move Silently checks.
TALENTED [PSIONIC]
You can overchannel powers with less cost to yourself.
Prerequisite: Overchannel.
Benefit: To use this feat, you must expend your psionic focus. When manifesting
a power of 3rd level or lower, you do not take damage from overchanneling.
TOUGHNESS [GENERAL]
Benefit: You gain +3 hit points.
Special: A character may gain
this feat multiple times. Its effects stack.
TRACK [GENERAL]
Benefit: To find tracks or to
follow them for 1 mile requires a successful Survival check. You must
make another Survival check every time the tracks become difficult to
follow.
You move at half your normal speed (or at your normal speed with a –5
penalty on the check, or at up to twice your normal speed with a –20
penalty on the check). The DC depends on the surface and the prevailing
conditions, as given on the table below:
Surface
Survival DC
Surface
Survival DC
Very soft ground 5
Firm ground 15
Soft ground 10
Hard ground 20
Very Soft Ground: Any surface (fresh snow, thick dust, wet mud) that
holds deep, clear impressions of footprints.
Soft Ground: Any surface soft enough to yield to pressure, but firmer
than wet mud or fresh snow, in which a creature leaves frequent but
shallow footprints.
Firm Ground: Most normal outdoor surfaces (such as lawns, fields,
woods, and the like) or exceptionally soft or dirty indoor surfaces
(thick rugs and very dirty or dusty floors). The creature might leave
some traces (broken branches or tufts of hair), but it leaves only
occasional or partial footprints.
Hard Ground: Any surface that doesn’t hold footprints at all, such as
bare rock or an indoor floor. Most streambeds fall into this category,
since any footprints left behind are obscured or washed away. The
creature leaves only traces (scuff marks or displaced pebbles).
Several modifiers may apply to the Survival check, as given on the
table below.
Condition

1 - For a group of mixed sizes, apply only the modifier for the largest
size category.
2 - Apply only the largest modifier from this category.
If you fail a Survival check, you can retry after 1 hour (outdoors) or
10 minutes (indoors) of searching.
Normal: Without this feat, you
can use the Survival skill to find tracks, but you can follow them only
if the DC for the task is 10 or lower. Alternatively, you can use the
Search skill to find a footprint or similar sign of a creature’s
passage using the DCs given above, but you can’t use Search to follow
tracks, even if someone else has already found them.
TWIN POWER [METAPSIONIC]
You can manifest a power simultaneously with another power just like it.
Benefit: To use this feat, you must expend your psionic focus. You can twin a
power. Manifesting a power altered by this feat causes the power to take
effect twice on the area or target, as if you were simultaneously manifesting
the same power two times on the same location or target. Any variables in the
power (such as duration, number of targets, and so on) are the same for both
of the resulting powers. The target experiences all the effects of both powers
individually and receives a saving throw (if applicable) for each. In some
cases, such as a twinned psionic charm, failing both saving throws results
in redundant effects (although, in this example, any ally of the target
would have to succeed on two dispel attempts to free the target from the
charm effect).
Using this feat increases the power point cost of the power by 6. The
power’s total cost cannot exceed your manifester level.
TWO-WEAPON DEFENSE [GENERAL]
Prerequisites: Dex 15,
Two-Weapon Fighting.
Benefit: When wielding a
double weapon or two weapons (not including natural weapons or unarmed
strikes), you gain a +1 shield bonus to your AC.
When you are fighting defensively or using the total defense action,
this shield bonus increases to +2.
Special: A zealot may select
Two-Weapon Defense as one of his zealot bonus feats.
TWO-WEAPON FIGHTING [GENERAL]
You can fight with a weapon in each hand. You can make one extra attack
each round with the second weapon.
Prerequisite: Dex 15.
Benefit: Your penalties on
attack rolls for fighting with two weapons are reduced. The penalty for
your primary hand lessens by 2 and the one for your off hand lessens by
6.
Normal: If you wield a second
weapon in your off hand, you can get one extra attack per round with
that weapon. When fighting in this way you suffer a -6 penalty with
your regular attack or attacks with your primary hand and a -10 penalty
to the attack with your off hand. If your off-hand weapon is light the
penalties are reduced by 2 each. (An unarmed strike is always
considered light.)
Special: A soldier may select
Two-Weapon Fighting as one of his soldier bonus feats.
A 2nd-level zealot is treated as having Two-Weapon Fighting, even if he
does not have the prerequisites for it.
UNAVOIDABLE STRIKE [PSIONIC]
You can make an unarmed strike or use a natural weapon against your foe as if
delivering a touch attack.
Prerequisite: Str 13, Psionic Fist, base attack bonus +5.
Benefit: To use this feat, you must expend your psionic focus. You can resolve
your unarmed strike or attack with a natural weapon as a touch attack.
You must decide whether or not to use this feat prior to making an attack.
If your attack misses, you still expend your psionic focus.
UNCONDITIONAL POWER [METAPSIONIC]
Disabling conditions do not hold you back.
Benefit: To use this feat, you must expend your psionic focus. Your mental
strength is enough to overcome some otherwise disabling conditions. You can
manifest an unconditional power when you are dazed, confused, nauseated, or stunned.
Only personal powers and powers that affect your person can be manifested as
unconditional powers.
Using this feat increases the power point cost of the power by 8. The power’s
total cost cannot exceed your manifester level.
UP THE WALLS [PSIONIC]
You can run on walls for brief distances.
Prerequisite: Wis 13.
Benefit: While you are psionically focused, you can take part of one of
your move actions to traverse a wall or other relatively smooth vertical surface
if you begin and end your move on a horizontal surface. The height you can
achieve on the wall is limited only by this movement restriction. If you do
not end your move on a horizontal surface, you fall prone, taking falling
damage as appropriate for your distance above the ground. Treat the wall as a
normal floor for the purpose of measuring your movement. Passing from floor to
wall or wall to floor costs no movement; you can change surfaces freely.
Opponents on the ground can make attacks of opportunity as you move up the wall.
Special: You can take other move actions in conjunction with moving
along a wall. For instance, the Spring Attack feat allows you to make an
attack from the wall against a foe standing on the ground who is within the
area you threaten; however, if you are somehow prevented from completing your
move, you fall. Likewise, you could tumble along the wall to avoid attacks of
opportunity.
UNLOAD [GENERAL]
When the chips are down, you can spray and pray.
Prerequisite: Improved
Autofire, Rock and Roll!
Benefit: You may make a
full-round action to completely unload your automatic weapon against a
single target. Make a single attack at your highest base attack bonus.
If you hit, continue to roll until you miss. For every successful hit
above the first, you deal an additional die of damage.
WEAPON FINESSE [GENERAL]
Prerequisite: Base attack bonus
+1.
Benefit: With a light weapon
made for a creature of your size category, you may use your Dexterity
modifier instead of your Strength modifier on attack rolls.
Special: A soldier may select
Weapon Finesse as one of his fighter bonus feats.
A zealot may select Weapon Finesse as one of his zealot bonus feats.
Natural weapons are always considered light weapons.
WEAPON FOCUS [GENERAL]
Choose one type of weapon. You can also choose unarmed strike or
grapple as your weapon for purposes of this feat.
Prerequisites: Proficiency with
selected weapon, base attack bonus +1.
Benefit: You gain a +1 bonus on
all attack rolls you make using the selected weapon.
Special: You can gain this
feat multiple times. Its effects do not stack. Each time you take the
feat, it applies to a new type of weapon.
A soldier may select Weapon Focus as one of his soldier bonus feats. He
must have Weapon Focus with a weapon to gain the Weapon Specialization
feat for that weapon.
A zealot may select Weapon Focus as one of his zealot bonus feats. He
must have Weapon Focus with a weapon to gain the Weapon Specialization
feat for that weapon.
WEAPON SPECIALIZATION [GENERAL]
Choose one type of weapon for which you have already selected the
Weapon Focus feat. You can also choose unarmed strike or grapple as
your weapon for purposes of this feat. You deal extra damage when using
this weapon.
Prerequisites: Proficiency with
selected weapon, Weapon Focus with selected weapon, soldier or zealot
level 4th.
Benefit: You gain a +2 bonus
on all damage rolls you make using the selected weapon.
Special: You can gain this
feat multiple times. Its effects do not stack. Each time you take the
feat, it applies to a new type of weapon.
A soldier may select Weapon Specialization as one of his soldier bonus
feats.
A zealot may select Weapon Specialization as one of his zealot
bonus
feats.
WIDEN POWER [METAPSIONIC]
You can increase the area of your powers.
Benefit: To use this feat, you must expend your psionic focus. You can
alter a burst, emanation, line, or spread-shaped power to increase its area.
(Powers that do not have an area of one of these four sorts are not affected by
this feat.) Any numeric measurements of the power’s area increase by 100%.
Using this feat increases the power point cost of the power by 4. The power’s
total cost cannot exceed your manifester level.
WILD TALENT [GENERAL]
Your mind wakes to a previously unrealized talent for psionics.
Benefit: Your latent power of psionics flares to life, conferring upon you the
designation of a psionic character. As a psionic character, you gain a reserve
of 2 power points and can take psionic feats, metapsionic feats, and psionic
item creation feats. You do not, however, gain the ability to manifest powers
simply by virtue of having this feat.
WINGOVER [GENERAL]
Prerequisite: Fly speed.
Benefits: A flying creature
with this feat can change direction quickly once each round as a free
action. This feat allows it to turn up to 180 degrees regardless of its
maneuverability, in addition to any other turns it is normally allowed.
A creature cannot gain altitude during a round when it executes a
wingover, but it can dive.
The change of direction consumes 10 feet of flying movement.
WOUNDING ATTACK [PSIONIC]
Your vicious attacks wound your foe.
Prerequisite: Base attack bonus +8.
Benefit: To use this feat, you must expend your psionic focus. You can
make an attack with such vicious force that you wound your opponent. A wound
deals 1 point of Constitution damage to your foe in addition to the usual
damage dealt.
You must decide whether or not to use this feat prior to making an attack.
If your attack misses, you still expend your psionic focus.
