Weapon and Armor Proficiencies: Avengers are proficient in the use of all simple weapons and martial weapons, all armor and
    shields.

Underground Tracking (Ex): The character may track underground with no penalty for poor visibility. Also, hard surfaces like
    stone are treated as firm surfaces for the purpose of making tracking attempts.

Drow Bane (Su): The Avenger gains a +1 competency bonus to attack vs. Drow and a +1d6 damage bonus against Drow. This
    increases at higher level. This ability stacks with a ranger's favored enemy ability (if Drow is chosen).

Poison Resistance (Su): The Avenger gains a resistance bonus vs. poison from spiders or manufactured by the Drow equal to
    his class level.

Overcome Spell Resistance (Su): Avengers gain a +2 bonus to overcome spell resistance of Drow and Driders. This stacks
    with Spell Penetration.

Spider Bane (Su): The character may use his Drow Bane abilities against aranea, driders, retrivers and bebliths.

Webwalking (Su): The avenger may ignore web spells and spider webs as if affected by a freedom of movement spell. He may
    also walk along webs as if on solid ground (No balance check required).

Drowic Change (Su): The Avenger may alter his appearance to that of a Drow. This functions like the spell alter self as if cast
    by a sorcerer of the Ancestral Avenger's class level.

Demon Bane (Su): The character may use the Drow Bane ability against any chaotic evil outsider.

Spell Resistance (Su): The Character gains a spell resistance equal to 10 + his class level.
