Prerequisite: Concentration 1 rank
Benefit: When you cast a spell using defensive casting and fail the concentration check, you may opt not to lose the spell but instead trigger an attack of opportunity just as if you had cast the spell in the ordinary fashion.

Your melee or ranged attack overcomes your opponent’s alignment-based damage reduction and deals additional damage.
Prerequisite: Base attack bonus +6
Benefit: When you take this feat, choose either chaos, good, evil or law. (Your choice must match one of your alignment components. Once you’ve made this alignment choice, it cannot be changed. To use this feat, you must expend your psionic focus. When you make a successful melee or ranged attack, you deal an extra 1d6 points of damage, and your attack is treated as either a good, evil, chaotic, or lawful attack (depending on your original choice) for the purpose of overcoming damage reduction. 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.

AMBIDEXTERITY [Trait]
You are more effective with your off hand.
Prerequisite: Dex 15
Benefit: When dual, double or multi-weapon fighting you may add your full strength bonus to all attacks.
Normal: Off-hand weapons only add half your strength bonus to damage.

You have focused on leading a small band or a large body of troops.
Prerequisite: Cha 13, Leadership

If the you select the cohort option, you gain two additional cohorts. One has a maximum level as determined by the your Leadership score. The second cohort has a maximum level two experience levels lower. If you select the follower option, you gain an additional 1.5 times the number of followers specified by your Leadership score.

ANIMAL AFFINITY [General]
You have a natural rapport with animals.
Benefit: You get a +2 bonus on all Handle Animal checks and Ride checks.

ANIMAL KEN [General]
You have an innate ability to handle animals.
Prerequisite: Handle Animal 4 ranks, Cha 13
Benefit: You can handle an animal as a free action or push it as a move action.
Normal: Handling an animal is a move action, while pushing an animal is a full-round action.

ANIMATE WALL [Metamagic]
You can make your wall spells move.
Benefit: You can animate your wall spell. The wall can move very slowly: 5 feet as a full round action; but must maintain its original shape and size. You direct the wall's movement as a free action on your turn. Walls must remain in contact with the ground if normally required to do so. This feat can only affect straight, vertical walls. If moving in a certain direction would force the wall to bend, break, or otherwise change its shape; it cannot move in that direction and you will know this. You can continue to direct the wall's movement for either the spell's normal duration or 1 minute/level (if the wall's duration is instantaneous or permanent). If the wall's normal duration is instantaneous, while under the effects of this feat it can be dispelled as if it had a duration other than instantaneous. Instantaneous Conjuration (Creation) school walls that are dispelled end the wall's ability to move but do not affect the wall otherwise. Solid walls (such as wall of stone, wall of iron, or wall of force) can automatically push Medium or smaller creatures out of their space. Such creatures caught between them and another solid structure, take damage equal to your caster level per round when the creature's actual space is squeezed against something solid. A successful Reflex save versus the wall's normal spell DC negates the damage for that round and allows the creature to move at half speed along the wall. Climbing over such a wall is a valid method of escape as is cutting through the wall with weapons (especially adamantine weapons). Animated Walls cannot push or crush creatures of larger than Medium size. Damaging walls (such as wall of thorns, blade barrier, or wall of fire) deal their normal damage per round when they push against a creature's square. Again, a Reflex save versus the wall's normal spell DC negates the damage for that round. These types of walls cannot push or crush creatures. Wall of ice deals the damage listed for solid walls unless the creature breaks through (Strength check DC 15 + wall's spell level); then it does the damage listed for the wall of ice spell. Wall of ice can push Medium or smaller creatures just as other solid walls can. Some walls can not deal damage in this way (such as wind wall and illusory wall) and either have their normal effects or are dissipated when pushed against the creature's square. An Animate Wall spell uses up a spell slot one level higher than the spell's actual level.
Normal: Your wall spells do not move.

ANTIPSIONIC MAGIC [General, Magical]
Your spells are more potent when used against psionic characters and creatures.
Prerequisite: Spellcraft 5 ranks
Benefit: You get a get a +2 bonus on caster level checks made to overcome a psionic creature’s power resistance. This bonus stacks with the bonus conferred by Spell Penetration and Greater Spell Penetration. Moreover, whenever a psionic creature attempts to dispel a spell you cast, it makes its manifester level check against a DC of 13 + its manifester level. The benefits of this feat apply only to power resistance. The bonus does not apply to spell resistance. This is an exception to the psionics–magic transparency rule.
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).

ANYTHING GOES COMBAT [General, Fighter]
In your hands almost anything is a dangerous weapon
Prerequisite: Dex 13, Int 13
Benefit: You are the master of the improvised weapon. You may treat any object, including weapons you are not proficient with, as simple melee weapons using the stats listed in this feat instead of the stats usually used for that object or weapon, although you may still use weapons you have proficiency with as per normal. Determine the size of the object or weapon and use the stats listed here. All weapons threaten a critical hit on a 20 and do double damage. No weapon gives you reach. As stated in the SRD, a light weapon is generally two size categories smaller than the wielder, a one-handed weapon one size smaller, and a two-handed weapon is an object of the same size category as the wielder.
Size Damage
Tiny 1d2
Small 1d4
Medium 1d6
Large 1d8
Huge 1d10

If the DM determines that there is no way the object in question could do regular damage it instead deals nonlethal damage. Additionally any object used as a weapon via this feat can deal nonlethal damage at your discretion without penalty.
Normal: You suffer a -4 penalty on attack rolls with any weapon you are nonproficient with, and similarly with objects not designed to be used for combat.
Special: You may not take weapon feats with objects not designed to be weapons. For instance you cannot take Weapon Focus (Beer Mug).

ANYTHING GOES LONG [General, Fighter]
You can throw nearly anything - ale tankards, rocks, bags of coins - and make it hurt.
Prerequisite: Dex 13, Base attack bonus +4
Benefit: You are the master of the improvised missile. You may treat any object, including weapons you are not proficient with, as simple thrown weapons using the stats listed in this feat instead of the stats usually used for that object or weapon, although you may still use weapons you have proficiency with as per normal. Determine the size of the object or weapon and use the stats listed here. All weapons threaten a critical hit on a 20 and do double damage. No weapon gives you reach. As stated in the SRD, a light weapon is generally two size categories smaller than the wielder, a one-handed weapon one size smaller, and a two-handed weapon is an object of the same size category as the wielder.
Size Damage
Tiny 1d2
Small 1d4
Medium 1d6
Large 1d8
Huge 1d10

If the DM determines that there is no way the object in question could do regular damage it instead deals nonlethal damage. Additionally any object used as a weapon via this feat can deal nonlethal damage at your discretion without penalty.
Normal: You suffer a -4 penalty on attack rolls with any weapon you are nonproficient with, and similarly with objects not designed to be used for combat.
Notes: This does not give you the ability to use any object in melee combat; for that, see the Anything Goes Combat feat.

APOTHECARY [General]
You have extensive knowledge of poisons and how to distill and manufacture them.
Benefit: You can create any poison following the craft rules using your Craft (alchemy) or Profession (herbalist) skills, with a DC equal to the save DC of the poison, except that each skill check represents one day's (rather than one week's) work. Many poisons require more expensive or rare components, as decided by your DM.
Special: You must have an Alchemist's lab in order to create a poison.
Notes: Depending on your campaign, poison creation may be treated as a house rule based on your Craft (alchemy) or Profession (herbalist) skill, rather than a feat. Alternatively, enterprising DMs could create a Craft (poison) skill that accomplishes the same effect.

APPLIED SCHOLASTICS [General, Role Play]
Your scholarly knowledge is helpful in nearly every situation.
Prerequisite: A least 15 total ranks in 3 or more Knowledge skills
Benefit: You may use your Knowledge skills to take the Aid Another action in place of the actual skill being used. So long as you beat a DC 10 you add +2 to the roll of whomever you are aiding. You may also do this to aid your own actions by applying the aid bonus to a subsequent skill check you make. Using Aid Another remains a standard action.
Special: Because there is no hard and fast rule for which Knowledge skill can aid what actions, your DM should decide when it is appropriate although you can certainly present your case for how your smarts will make the task easier. You can never use a knowledge skill to aid your own knowledge skill checks.
Example: Janoc the scholar is about to climb a wall. His Climb skill is very poor, but he has a very good Knowledge (Architecture and Engineering) skill and wants to use this to find a good way to climb. The DM judges this a relevant field of knowledge. Taking a standard action to use Aid Other to help himself, he succeeds, granting +2 to his climb check on his next action.

AQUATIC LEAPING ATTACK [General]
You can propel yourself from the water and strike your foes.
Prerequisite: Swim Speed 30’, Base attack bonus +3
Benefit: You can make a special leaping attack as a full attack action. First move at least 5’ at or to near the surface of the water, then you may leap from the water up to 10’ high and 20’ horizontally in an arc. You may make a single melee attack at your highest base attack bonus anywhere along your movement path. You do not provoke an attack of opportunity from your target and your target losses their Dexterity bonus to AC against this attack.

ARCANE ADMIXTURE [Metamagic]
You can modify a spell that inflicts energy damage to mix in an equal amount of arcane damage.
Prerequisite: Arcane Power, One other metamagic feat, Knowledge (arcana) 5 ranks
Benefit: You can modify an arcane spell with an energy designator to add an equal amount of raw magical energy. The altered spell works normally in all respects except that it deals an amount of arcane damage equal to the damage normally inflicted by the spell. An Arcane Admixture spell uses up a spell slot five levels higher than the spell’s actual level.
Example: Thieren (Sor 15), casts an arcane admixture lightning bolt by using up an 8th level spell slot, rolls 10d6 for damage and gets 35. He inflicts 35 points of electrical damage (subject to electricity resistance) and 35 points of arcane damage (not subject to protection from elements and similar spells).

ARCANE POWER [Metamagic]
You can infuse your damaging arcane spells with raw magical energy.
Benefit: Half of the damage inflicted by an arcane spell modified by this feat is treated as raw magical energy, making it resistant to protection from elements and similar magic. The other half of the damage is treated normally as per the spell. Infusing an arcane spell with raw magical energy uses up a spell slot two levels higher than the spell's actual level.

ARCANE UNDERSTANDING [Special, Magical]
You increase the number of spells learned automatically with each new level.
Prerequisite: Int 13, Wizard level 1st, Knowledge (Arcana) 5 ranks

Prerequisite: Innate Spell Resistance 10
Benefit: Any spell or spell-like ability that includes the creature within its area of effect must beat the creature's SR or be instantly negated.

AWARENESS [General]
By intuitively predicting your opponent’s next move, you can get the jump on them.
Prerequisite: Wis 13
Benefit: You may use your wisdom bonus instead of your dexterity bonus to determine your initiative bonus.

AWESOME BLOW [Monster, Fighter]
You knock your victims flying with a powerful attack.
Prerequisite: 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.
Special: This can be taken as a fighter bonus feat.

AXE FRENZY [General, Fighter]
You can strike exceptionally fast with axes.
Prerequisite: Weapon Focus (any One Axe Weapon)
Benefit: You can only get the benefit of this feat with an axe-type weapon you have Weapon Focus in and use in one hand. Make one extra attack with an axe per round at your highest base attack. You suffer a –4 dodge penalty to AC during this round. This requires the full attack action.
Special: This feat works with the dwarven waraxe, greataxe, handaxe, kukiri, and throwing axe.

AXE HURLING [General, Fighter]
You can throw any axe.
Prerequisite: Weapon Focus (any One Axe Weapon)
Benefit: You can throw any type of axe that you have Weapon Focus for as if it had a range increment of 20 ft.
Special: This feat works with the battleaxe, dwarven waraxe, greataxe, handaxe, kukiri, and throwing axe.

BACK TO BACK [General, Fighter]
You shield your allies' vulnerabilities in combat.
Prerequisite: Base attack bonus +2
Benefit: If you are adjacent to an ally, that ally cannot be flanked. If you are adjacent to more than one ally, you must choose one ally to protect in this manner.

BACKSTAB [Stealth]
You are adept at sneak attacks.
Prerequisite: Sneak Attack 1d6
Benefit: You gain a +2 bonus on attack rolls when making a sneak attack.

BANE OF ENEMIES [Epic, Special]
Your favored enemies fear any weapon in your hands.
Prerequisite: Survival 24 ranks, Five favored enemies
Benefit: Any weapon you wield against one of you favored enemies is treated as a bane weapon for that creature type (thus, its enhancement bonus is increased by +2 and it deals +2d6 points of damage). This ability doesn’t stack with similar abilities.

BARBER-SURGEON [General]
Your training as a barber includes various medical techniques.
Prerequisite: 5 ranks Profession (barber)
Benefit: You receive a +2 bonus to your Heal skill, and that skill becomes a class skill for you. Also, you may use your Intelligence modifier in place of your Wisdom modifier on Heal checks.

BATTLE CRY [General, Fighter]
Your voice inspires greatness in battle.
Prerequisite: Cha 15
Benefit: Whenever you use the charge special attack, you may let lose an inspiring battle-cry. If you hit your target, all your allies that can hear you within 60’ get a +1 morale bonus to hit until your next action.

BATTLE LEADER [General]
Your banner or standard inspires your followers and cohorts in battle
Prerequisite: Cha 13, Leadership
Benefit: For this feat to have an effect, you must have a banner or standard that is recognizable to your followers and cohorts, and you must use this standard to urge, inspire or rally your troops. All cohorts and followers that can directly see you or your banner gain a +1 morale bonus to attack rolls and on saving throws versus all fear effects. If either you or your banner falls, all followers and cohorts instead get a -2 penalty to attack and on saving throws versus all fear effects until you are restored, the standard is raised again or one minute elapses.

BEAST TONGUES [General]
You can speak despite your form.
Benefit: As long as you can produce sound, this feat allows you to speak, even if your form would not ordinarily allow it. This is applicable to monsters that normally lack speech or if you are polymorphed into such a shape. You can now speak any language you know and cast spells with verbal components in any form. You can even sing and use bardic music in any form.

BIG FAMILIAR [Magical]
You can take a larger animal or vermin as a familiar.
Prerequisite: The ability to summon a familiar
Benefit: You can bind an animal or vermin of medium size or smaller to be your familiar. The familiar ceremony works just as described in the class description, except that the creature is not actually summoned, and must be present and in your power (charmed, tamed or captured) and of a challenge rating equal to or lower than half your character level. Once bound, the new familiar becomes loyal to you, and gains all the benefits of a normal familiar, except that it has no species-specific familiar ability; it does not grant you any bonuses beyond those common to all familiars.
Special: This feat can be taken multiple times, and stacks with itself. For each additional time it is taken, the maximum size of your familiar is increased by one category, from medium to large, to huge, and so on.
Example: Bainard the 1st level gnome illusionist wishes to use this feat to bind a dire badger as his familiar, figuring he can ride it into battle. However, since dire badgers have a challenge rating of two, he can't do this until he attains the fourth level. He decided not to bind any familiar at first level, since that would force him to wait a year and a day for his badger, once he attained fourth level.
Notes: You must dismiss any familiar you currently have before binding a new one, and you cannot bind a new familiar until a year and a day has passed since your last familiar was killed or dismissed.

BLADE DEFENSE [General, Fighter]
You have mastered the art of defending yourself with a blade.
Prerequisite: Weapon Focus (any One Blade Weapon)
Benefit: You can only get the benefit of this feat with a blade-type weapon you have Weapon Focus in. When fighting defensively you gain an additional +2 dodge bonus to Armor Class. When using the total defense action you get an additional +4 dodge bonus to Armor Class. These bonuses are in addition to the normal benefits of the chosen defensive tactic.
Special: Blades include the bastard sword, falchion, greatsword, longsword, rapier, scimitar, short sword, and two-bladed sword.

BLEEDING CRITICAL [General, Fighter]
Your strikes can cause someone to bleed to death.
Prerequisite: Improved Critical, Base attack bonus +8
Benefit: When dealing a critical hit your target takes 1 point of Constitution damage from blood loss. The critical hit does not multiply the Constitution damage.
Special: Creatures immune to critical hits (such as plants and constructs) are immune to this Constitution damage. This applies even if you have some other ability (such as the Enable Criticals feat) that lets you score critical hits against them.

BLIND [General]
Being blind, you have developed other senses to compensate.
Prerequisite: Permanently blind for at least three months
Benefit: You gain +4 to all Listen checks, and the ability to take 10 on any Listen check, regardless of condition. Listen is considered a class skill for you. You also gain the feat Blind-Fight.
Special: If you ever recover your sight, you lose this feat but keep Blind-Fight.

BLIND-FIGHT [General, Fighter]
You can sense opponents that you cannot see.
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: The Blind-Fight feat is of no use against a character who is the subject of a blink spell. A fighter may select Blind-Fight as one of his fighter bonus feats.

BLIND-SHOT [General]
You can sense your targets using senses other than sight.
Prerequisite: Blind-fight
Benefit: When making a ranged attack against a target within 30’ you may re-roll your miss chance due to concealment if you fail the first time.

BLINDING SPEED [Epic]
You can act with near superhuman speed.
Prerequisite: Dex 25
Benefit: You can act as if hasted for 5 rounds each day. The duration of the effect need not be consecutive rounds. Activating this power is a free action.
Special: A character can gain this feat multiple times. Each time he or she takes the feat, it grants an additional 5 rounds of haste per day.

BLINDING STRIKE [General]
Your mastery of underhanded dishonorable tactics allows you to temporarily blind your foe.
Prerequisite: Brawl, Streetfighting, Base attack bonus +2
Benefit: By taking a full attack action, you may make a single attack that blinds your foe. If you hit, your opponent must make a Fortitude save (DC 10 + half your level) or be blinded for 1d4 rounds. Only creatures that use sensory organs to see are vulnerable to this attack.

BLINDSIGHT, 5-FT. RADIUS [General]
You can sense everything close to you, visible or not.
Prerequisite: Base attack bonus +4, Blind-fight, Wis 19
Benefit: Using senses such as acute hearing and sensitivity to vibrations, you detect the location of opponents who are no more than 5 feet away from you. Invisibility and darkness are irrelevant, though you cannot discern incorporeal beings.

BLOODLETTING [General, Fighter]
Your strikes can cause someone to bleed to death.
Prerequisite: Weapon Focus
Benefit: When dealing a critical hit with any weapon you have taken Weapon Focus for, your opponent begins bleeding, suffering 1 additional point of damage each round until the wound is treated. The wound can be closed with a successful Heal check (DC 15), or any magical healing. This effect is cumulative but a single Heal check or magical heal will stop all current effects from this feat on that target.

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.

BONDED WEAPON [General, Fighter]
You have used a single weapon so much that you have formed an almost spiritual bond with that specific weapon.
Prerequisite: Base attack bonus +8, Improved Critical (with Weapon), Proficient With Weapon, Weapon Focus (with Weapon), Weapon Specialization (with Weapon)
Benefit: Choose a single unique weapon. For one month you train exclusively with that weapon, learning how to best wield that specific weapon most effectively. During the training period, you may use no other weapons or you must repeat the process. After the month of training, give the weapon a name to symbolize your intimate knowledge of the weapon. You gain an additional +2 to all attack rolls and +1 to damage with your named weapon (this stacks with the weapon focus and weapon specialization bonuses). You do not gain the bonuses or penalties of this feat when wielding a weapon of the same type, and suffer a -2 to all attack rolls with all other weapons.
Special: If ever your named weapon is destroyed or taken from your possession for more than a week, you must repeat the process of naming a weapon and continue to suffer the -2 to attack rolls with all weapons of a different type. You may never have more than one bonded weapon.

BONE ART [Metamagic]
You can create weapons, armor and possibly siege equipment for your undead minions.
Prerequisite: Knowledge (Architecture and Engineering) 5 ranks, Ability to summon undead
Benefit: When you cast a Bone Art spell that summons or creates undead, you may give the created undead equipment. This equipment performs just like standard equipment of the appropriate type. The undead are proficient with whatever gear they are created with. The gear created this way is actually a part of the undead creature and has an obvious sheen of undeath; it will wither to dust in an hour if more than ten feet away from the creature it was created for. A Bone Art spell uses a spell slot of higher than normal level, depending on the equipment created for the undead; all modifiers are cumulative.
Item Spell Slot Modifier
Peasant’s outfit, simple gear such as quivers and weapon belts +0
Fancy or elaborate clothing or gear worth up to 100 gold +1
Simple or martial melee weapons and shields +1
Exotic weapons, ranged weapons +2
Padded, leather, studded leather, hide or scale mail +1
Chain shirt, chainmail, breastplate, splint mail, banded mail +2

Special: DMs may allow the creation of siege equipment with this feat. To do so, you must create a full crew complement for the siege engine, all modified by this feat, and it is a +3 spell slot modifier beyond that of any other gear created for those undead.
Notes: Immaterial undead have very little use for equipment. There is nothing to stop you from equipping undead using gear at hand; this feat merely provides proficiency and gear.

BONUS DOMAIN [Epic, Magical]
You have been granted new powers by your deity.
Prerequisite: Wis 21, Ability to cast 9th-level divine spells
Benefit: Choose an additional domain from your deity’s domain list. You now has access to that domain’s spells as normal for your domain spells and the domain’s granted powers.
Special: A character can gain this feat multiple times. Each time he or she takes the feat, it applies to a different domain.

BONUS SPELLS FOCUS [Magical]
Choose one spellcasting class. You receive more bonus spells per day for that class.
Prerequisite: Caster level 4th
Benefit: You gain a +2 bonus to the appropriate ability score for the purposes of determining how many bonus spells you have available to you in the chosen class.
Special: You can gain this feat multiple times if you have multiple spellcasting classes. Each time you take this feat, it applies to a different class.

BOOKWORM [General]
You seem to have a knack for locating information needed when performing research
Benefit: Gain a +3 modifier to any research based activities conducted in a library or laboratory.
Special: This feat stacks with all skill and research enhancements applicable

BOOST CONSTRUCT [Psionic]
Your astral constructs have more abilities.
Benefit: When you create an astral construct, you can give it one additional special ability from any menu that the construct currently has an ability from.

BOTTOMS UP [General]
You can drink potion or apply an oil safely as a move equivalent action.
Prerequisite: Base attack bonus +1
Benefit: You can drink a potion or apply an oil as a move equivalent action that does not provoke an attack of opportunity.

BOW MASTERY [General, Fighter]
You are adept with either bows or crossbows.
Prerequisite: Weapon Focus (any Bow Or Crossbow), Base attack bonus +3
Benefit: You can choose to apply this feat to either bows or crossbows, but not both (unless this feat is taken twice). If you have previously taken Weapon Focus (any bow), you can apply the +1 attack bonus gained from this feat when wielding any bow that you are proficient in. Similarly, if you have previously chosen Weapon Focus (any crossbow), you can apply the +1 attack bonus gained from this feat when wielding any crossbow that you are proficient in.
Special: This feat can be chosen twice but does not stack with itself. The second time it is chosen you must apply its effects to either bows or crossbows, whichever wasn't chosen the first time this feat was taken.

BRAVERY [General]
You are especially resistant to fear effects.
Benefit: You gain a +4 bonus to all saves to resist and/or overcome fear effects.

BRAWL [General, Fighter]
You have a talent for unarmed fighting.
Benefit: When making an unarmed attack, you receive a +1 competence bonus on attack rolls, and you deal nonlethal damage equal to 1d6 + your Strength modifier.
Normal: Unarmed attacks normally deal nonlethal damage equal to 1d3 + Strength modifier.
Special: Even if you have the ability to treat unarmed damage as lethal damage, the damage when using Brawl is always nonlethal.

BRAWN [General, Fighter]
You have improved your striking power.
Prerequisite: Str 13, Brute
Benefit: When calculating melee attack bonus, consider your Strength to be two points higher than it actually is.

BREAKING BLOW [Martial Style]
You are capable of inflicting powerful attacks with your bare hands.
Prerequisite: Base attack bonus +5, Str 15, Improved Unarmed Strike, Stunning Fist, Fists Of Steel
Benefit: As a full round action you may make a single unarmed melee attack that if it hits, deals damage equal to 1d6 for each point of strength modifier you have. If applied to an inanimate object, the damage is doubled. This uses one of your Stunning Fist attempts.
Special: The damage from a Breaking Blow is not modified by any statistic, ability, or feat, is applied instead of normal damage, and is not doubled by a critical hit.

BREW POTION [Item Creation]
You can create magic potions.
Prerequisite: Caster level 3rd
Benefit: You can create a potion of any 3rd-level or lower spell that you know and that targets one or more creatures. Brewing a potion takes one day. When you create a potion, you set the caster level, which must be sufficient to cast the spell in question and no higher than your own level. The base price of a potion is its spell level x its caster level x 50 gp. To brew a potion, you must spend 1/25 of this base price in XP and use up raw materials costing one half this base price. When you create a potion, you make any choices that you would normally make when casting the spell. Whoever drinks the potion is the target of the spell. Any potion that stores a spell with a costly material component or an XP cost also carries a commensurate cost. In addition to the costs derived from the base price, you must expend the material component or pay the XP when creating the potion.

BRUTE [General, Fighter]
You have improved your striking strength.
Prerequisite: Str 13
Benefit: When calculating damage inflicted, consider your Strength to be two points higher than it actually is.

BULWARK OF DEFENSE [Epic, Special]
You have improved your defensive stance.
Prerequisite: Con 25, Defensive stance 3/day
Benefit: Your defensive stance bonuses increase to +4 Strength, +6 Constitution, +4 resistance bonus on all saves, and +6 dodge bonus to AC.

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 force effect. Your power briefly skips through the Astral Plane to bypass the barrier. 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 force effects (or a wall of ectoplasm). Force walls or walls of ectoplasm 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.

BURST FIRE [Modern]
You unload multiple rounds into a single target.
Prerequisite: Dex 13, Personal Firearms Proficiency, Advanced Firearms Proficiency
Benefit: When using an automatic firearm with at least five bullets loaded, you may fire a short burst as a single attack against a single target. You receive a –4 penalty on the attack roll, but deal +2 dice of damage. Firing a burst expends five bullets and can only be done if the weapon has five bullets in it.
Normal: Autofire uses ten bullets, targets a 10-foot-by-10-foot area, and can’t be aimed at a specific target. Without this feat, if you attempt an autofire attack at a specific target, it simply counts as a normal attack and all the extra bullets are wasted.
Special: If the firearm has a three-round burst setting, firing a burst expends three bullets instead of five and can be used if the weapon has only three bullets in it.

BUTTERFLY FLANK [General, Fighter]
Your skill with a blade distracts and intimidates your opponent, catching them off balance and unaware.
Prerequisite: Dex 15, Combat Reflexes, Lightning Reflexes, Base attack bonus +6
Benefit: As long as you and an ally threaten the same opponent, but are not adjacent to one another, your opponent is considered flanked to you and all allies threatening them.
Normal: A character can only flank an opponent if he and an ally are directly opposite one another around the target.

CADAVEROUS FAMILIAR [Magical]
You can take an undead creature as a familiar.
Prerequisite: The ability to summon a familiar, Ability to cast the animate dead spell
Benefit: With this feat, the familiar ritual is performed on the animated skeleton or zombie of a type of animal that can normally become a familiar. The familiar ceremony works normally, except that the creature is not actually summoned, and must be present and under your control. A skeletal or zombie familiar is just as intelligent as any other familiar. You still get the bonuses associated with that type of (living) familiar. As an undead creature, the cadaverous familiar can be turned or rebuked, but remember that it's hit dice is equal to your level.
Special: If your regular familiar is slain, you can recover the lost experience points by reanimating it and using this feat. If a cadaverous familiar is destroyed, you can merely replace any damaged parts and reanimate the remains, without losing any experience points in the process. You must dismiss any familiar you currently have before binding a new one, but need not wait a year and a day to bind a cadaverous familiar.
Notes: If you have the Big Familiar feat as well, you can bind any type of skeleton or zombie of the appropriate size. Your DM may let you apply this feat to an infernal companion or similar pet.

CALLED SHOT [General, Fighter]
You do more damage with pinpoint attacks.
Prerequisite: Dex 13
Benefit: On your action, before making attack rolls for the round, you may choose to subtract a number from all attack rolls for the round and add the same number to all weapon damage rolls for dexterity-based attacks. This number may not exceed your base attack bonus. The penalty on attacks and bonus on damage apply until your next action.
Special: Creatures lacking an anatomy and thus immune to critical hits, are immune to this extra damage. Called shot can be used with ranged weapons at ranges up to 30 feet.
Notes: Dexterity-based attacks are attacks that use the dexterity modifier rather than the strength modifier for attack rolls; missile weapons, thrown weapons and weapons used with the Weapon Finesse feat. Called shot cannot be used with ranged touch attacks.

CAMOUFLAGE [General]
You have mastered the art of concealing objects and other creatures.
Prerequisite: Hide 1 rank
Benefit: You can apply your Hide skill to objects or even other creatures as a standard action. Often this requires arranging scenery to provide superior concealment. All normal Hide modifiers, including size, apply. A creature hidden in this manner cannot move about without breaking concealment.
Notes: Your DM may allow anyone to use the Hide skill for this, without requiring a feat.

CAMPAIGNER [General]
You sleep well under any circumstances.
Prerequisite: Endurance
Benefit: You can sleep in any kind of armor for any amount of time without suffering fatigue penalties or discomfort. Other conditions that are uncomfortable but not dangerous, such as temperature, noise, sleeping on a hard surface, or with bed bugs, will likewise not prevent you from a good nights sleep. You get to make listen rolls normally while asleep. On any successful roll, you instantly wake up. You fall asleep easily, so you still get your rest even if you wake up several times.
Notes: This incorporates the Improved Rapid Metabolism, Improved Recovery and Light Sleeper feats from previous versions of the Netbook of Feats.

CANNIBALISTIC CASTING [Magical]
You can use your body to fuel magic once your spells have run out.
Benefit: You can cast a spell by losing a number of Constitution points equal to the level of the spell rather than using a spell slot. These lost points of Constitution are considered temporary ability score damage for all purposes, except that they cannot be healed by magical means and must be regained by rest. If the ability damage is in some way prevented the spell will fail. 0-level spells count as one spell level for the purpose of this feat.
Special: Spellcasters that must prepare spells are limited to selecting spells previously prepared and cast that day.

CANTRIP [Magical]
Allows you to use 0-level arcane spells.
Prerequisite: Int 13, Knowledge (Arcana) 1 rank
Benefit: This feat grants you the ability to understand up to your intelligence modifier's worth of cantrips, i.e. 0-level arcane spells. You still locate and be trained in these spells. Regardless of the number of cantrips learned only one may be cast per day, and you must rest and memorize their cantrip as a wizard normally does, and suffers all appropriate penalties (e.g. spell failure chance due to armor).
Special: This feat may be taken multiple times; however, no additional cantrips can ever be learned (past the individual's intelligence modifier). Each additional time this feat is taken, the caster may prepare one additional cantrip per day for casting. The total maximum number of cantrips that can be cast in a single day (regardless of the number of times this feat is taken), is also limited to the caster's intelligence modifier.

CANTRIP MASTERY [Magical]
You have mastered cantrips in a way that allows you to use them more freely.
Prerequisite: Caster level 3rd, Memorizes spells as a Wizard, Knowledge (Arcana) 5 ranks
Benefit: Instead of memorising set cantrips (0-level spells) for the day, you can freely use any cantrip available to you (known or in your spellbooks) up to the total number of cantrips you can cast per day.

CAREFUL PLANNER [General]
You always seem to have the right equipment on hand.
Prerequisite: Wis 13
Benefit: In any situation where a piece of mundane equipment is required and the item is unavailable, you can declare that you have the item on hand. You must immediately pay for the item, as if purchased from a shop. The item in question cannot be more than 25 gp in value. It is a fairly typical item of its sort you purchased last time you were in an appropriate market. The item found is not a specific item and could not for instance appear to be a counterfeit of another specific item. In the case of arrows, darts and the like, you may not ‘find’ more than 1d10 of these on you at any one time.
Special: You may use this feat a number of times per session equal to your Wisdom bonus. However, the DM may determine on extensive excursions that it can only be used a number of times equal to your Wisdom bonus per adventure. You can not find an item that you could not have conceivably been carrying with you because you lack sufficient storage space.
Notes: The idea of the feat is not that you magically create items, but that your character is a better shopper than their player and bought the item last time they re-supplied even the player had not thought to do so.

CAST ON THE RUN [General, Magical]
You can cast spells while moving.
Prerequisite: Dex 13, Concentration 7 ranks, Dodge, Mobility
Benefit: When using a standard action to cast a spell or activate a magic item you can move both before and after your action provided the totally distance moved does not exceed your current speed.

CAST-IRON STOMACH [General]
You can consume the most unpleasant fare without so much as a second thought.
Prerequisite: Con 13
Benefit: You derive nourishment from spoiled food and can avoid dehydration by drinking seawater with few ill effects. By subsisting on these unusual provisions, you double the amount of time you can go without fresh food and water.
Normal: Without this feat you can go without food for three days, after which time you must make a Constitution check (DC 10, + 1 for each previous check) or take 1d6 points of nonlethal damage. Without this feat you can go without fresh water for one day plus a number of hours equal to your Constitution score, after which you must make Constitution checks as described above, with similar effects for failed checks.
Special: For this feat to take effect, you must have access to formerly edible foods and a supply of salt water. Otherwise, you are just as vulnerable to starvation and dehydration as any other character.

CAUTIOUS [Modern]
You haven't lost any fingers yet.
Benefit: You get a +2 bonus on all Demolitions checks and Disable Device checks.
Special: Remember that the Demolitions skill and the Disable Device skill can’t be used untrained.

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.

CHAIN RAY [Metamagic]
You can chain your ray spells.
Benefit: This feat allows a spell cast with Effect: Ray that successfully hits a single target to possibly strike other targets. When a Chain Ray spell successfully strikes a target it creates a number of secondary rays that strike opponents within 30’ of the initial target. You may strike a number of secondary targets up to your caster level. Each secondary target requires an additional ranged attack. Secondary targets are only affected by one ray (regardless of how many the spell originally produces) and the ray only does half its normal damage. Rays that do not do damage but allow saving throws have their DC reduced by 4. A Chain Ray spell uses up a slot two levels higher than the actual level.

CHANNEL AGAINST OUTSIDERS [Special]
You can turn or rebuke one type of outsider.
Prerequisite: Turn or Rebuke Undead ability, Extra Turning
Benefit: Select one group of outsiders (such as fire elementals, demons or devils) that are either hostile to your faith/alignment (for turning) or associated with your faith/ alignment (for rebuking). You can channel divine energy against this type of outsider to turn or rebuke them as if they were undead of twice their Hit Dice. When turning outsiders, those whose modified Hit Dice are half your turning level or less are dismissed to their home plane rather than destroyed.
Special: On their home plane, you turn or rebuke these outsiders as undead of four times their Hit Dice, but there they really can be destroyed instead of merely dismissed. This feat can be taken several times. It does not stack. Each time, you may choose a new type of outsider to turn or rebuke.
Notes: A cleric that turns undead also turns outsiders, and a cleric that rebukes undead also rebukes outsiders. You must select appropriate groups of outsiders depending on whether you turn or rebuke. Your DM has the final say as to what constitutes a valid group of outsiders for this feat.

CHANNEL PSIONIC TOUCH [Psionic]
You can channel your psionic touch powers through a held melee weapon.
Prerequisite: Manifester level 1st
Benefit: You are able to manifest psionic touch powers through a held melee weapon, allowing you to make a standard armed attack and inflict normal weapon damage plus the effect of your psionic power on a successful strike. For a power with a manifestation time of 1 standard action, manifesting the power and making the attack require a full-round action (unless the power is manifested with Quicken Power, in which case it requires a standard action). When resolving your attack, compare your attack roll against your target’s normal AC and AC against touch attacks. If your attack roll fails to beat the target’s normal AC but beats his or her AC against touch attacks, the power is discharged normally but the weapon inflicts no additional damage. Once the power is manifest your melee weapon holds the charge of the power exactly as if the power had been manifest in the normal manner. You cannot pass a charged weapon to another character as doing so discharges your power. Likewise, the power dissipates (without discharging) if the weapon is ever thrown or leaves your hand.
Normal: You can manifest a psionic touch power as either a touch attack (no armor, shield or natural armor bonus to AC) or a normal unarmed strike.
Special: You cannot manifest personal psionic powers (like Claws of the Bear, Claws of the Vampire, etc.) with this feat. For purposes of this feat, the weapon used to manifest your psionic touch power is immune to the effects of your power while it holds the charge of the power.

CHANNEL TOUCH SPELL [Metamagic]
You can cast a touch spell through your melee weapon.
Benefit: You can cast any of your touch spells through a held melee weapon, allowing you to make a standard armed attack and inflict normal weapon damage plus the effect of your spell on a successful strike. Casting the spell is still a standard action (unless you have the Quicken Spell feat) and you must wait until your next attack action in order to make your armed attack. When resolving your attack, compare your attack roll against your target's normal AC and AC against touch attacks. If your attack roll fails to beat the target's normal AC but beats their AC against touch attacks, the spell is discharged normally but the weapon inflicts no additional damage. Once the spell is cast your melee weapon holds the charge of the spell exactly as if the spell had been cast in the normal manner. You cannot pass a charged weapon to another character, as doing so discharges your spell. Likewise, the spell dissipates (without discharging) if the weapon is ever thrown or leaves your hand. Casting a touch spell in this manner uses up a spell slot one level higher than the level of the spell cast.
Normal: You can discharge a touch spell as either a touch attack (no armor, shield or natural armor bonus to AC) or a normal unarmed strike.

CHANNELED RESISTANCE [Monster, Psionic]
The creature can protect other beings that it touches with its Spell Resistance (SR) or Power Resistance (PR).
Prerequisite: Innate Spell Resistance 10 or Innate Power Resistance 10
Benefit: As a standard action, the creature can share its SR or PR with any single creature touched. This protection lasts only so long as the creature with SR or PR concentrates on providing the protection and only as long as the beneficiary remains in contact with the creature with resistance. If the creature with resistance is distracted or suffers damage in any way while maintaining this shared protection it must make a Concentration check as if casting a 0-level spell. Failing this check instantly negates the shared SR or PR until the creature with resistance spends another action to share it again.
Normal: Creatures and magic items cannot bestow SR or PR on another.

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. The benefit of this feat applies only to insight bonuses gained from psionic powers and psi-like abilities. This is an exception to the psionics–magic transparency rule.
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).

Your rage channels the powers of raw chaos into your weapon.
Prerequisite: Rage 5/day, Chaotic alignment
Benefit: Any weapon you wield while in a rage is treated as an anarchic weapon (it is chaos-aligned and deals an extra 2d6 points of damage against creatures of lawful alignment). This ability does not stack with similar abilities.

CHEAP ENHANCING [Item Creation]

CHILD OF THE SEA [General, Trait]
You have inherited the affinity for the sea of an ancestor (perhaps an aquatic elf).
Benefit: You gain a Swim speed of 20 ft. You gain a +8 on all Swim checks. Swim is always a class skill for you. You can always Take 10 on your Swim check skills. You may use the run action when swimming, but only if you swim in a straight line.
Special: You may only take this feat at character creation.
Notes: You do not gain any ability to breathe underwater.

CHILL OF THE GRAVE [Monster]
Your undead presence horrifies the living.
Prerequisite: Undead creature type
Benefit: You have a supernatural aura that acts similarly to a continuous cause fear spell against all living creatures within 10’ of you. Creatures that make a Will save (DC of 13 + ½ HD of undead + Cha bonus) are immune to this effect for 24 hours, whereas those that fail are frightened for 1d4 rounds.

CLEAVE [General, Fighter]
You can slice through multiple foes in one great swing.
Prerequisite: Power Attack, Str 13
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 fighter may select Cleave as one of his fighter bonus feats.

CLEAVE ASUNDER [General, Fighter]
Your Sunder attacks are usually more effective. You are trained in following through when you break an opponent's weapon or shield
Prerequisite: Str 13, Cleave, Improved Sunder, Power Attack
Benefit: When attacking an opponent's weapon, shield or other held object, if the object is broken you can immediately make another attack against the same opponent or another object the opponent holds. You can use this ability only once per round.

CLEAVING RAMPAGE [General, Fighter]
You charge forward cutting through all in your path.
Prerequisite: Str 13, Dex 13, Power Attack, Cleave, Dodge, Great Cleave, Mobility, Spring Attack, Base attack bonus +8
Benefit: As a full round action you may trace a path up to twice your speed in a straight line. This path must be generally clear; the only obstructions allowed are friendly or enemy combatants. You must attack the first opponent along your path, and must move at least 10 ft. before your first attack. If you drop an opponent you may can take a cleave attack on the next available target. If no targets are in reach you may continue moving along the path. You must stop moving when you make an attack but fail to drop the opponent. Any opponent dropped will not hinder your movement even if they originally blocked your path. You are considered to be charging and get the usual +2 bonus to hit on all attacks for the round, and -2 to your AC until your next action. You still provoke attacks of opportunity as usual.
Special: This feat does not allow this maneuver to be used while mounted.

CLEAVING SHOT [General, Fighter]
Your missile attacks can pierce through one target and into the next.
Prerequisite: Weapon Focus, Point Blank Shot, Base attack bonus +8
Benefit: If you hit an opponent within 30’ with a ranged attack and deal enough damage to drop the target, you missile rips through your target and potentially strikes a second foe. You may immediately make another attack at the same base attack bonus against an enemy within 30’ of you and who is in a direct line with you and your original target.
Notes: As a DM you may want to restrict this feat to ranged weapons you feel could realistically “rip through” a target, however one could imagine that a thrown axe might whiz by cutting someone’s throat instead of blasting through their chest.

CLINCH [General, Fighter]
You have mastered the art of fighting at very close quarters.
Prerequisite: Dodge, Mobility, Base attack bonus +3
Benefit: Go into "clinch" with an adjacent opponent as a move-equivalent action. After doing this, you get a +4 cover bonus to AC against all opponents, and a +4 circumstance bonus to attack rolls against that opponent. If you and your opponent move further than 5 feet apart, you lose this bonus. You also lose the bonus if you move into a clinch with or attack someone else. To use this feat your weapon must be of a size class two categories smaller than your opponent's. A natural weapon or unarmed attack has a size code two sizes smaller than the creature using it.
Example: A medium creature with a light weapon (e.g. a tiny object such as a dagger) can use this feat against another medium creature using a two-handed weapon (e.g. a medium object such as a greatsword), but not if they were using a one-handed weapon (e.g. a small object such as a longsword). Similarly a human with a dagger could use this feat against an ogre using an ogre-sized longsword.
Notes: Roman shortswordsmen used this against longspears under king Pyrrhus. It was just successful enough to coin the term 'pyrrhic victory'.

CLOAK DANCE [General]
You are skilled at using optical tricks to make yourself seem to be where you are not.
Prerequisite: Hide 10 ranks, Perform (dance) 2 ranks
Benefit: You can take a move action to obscure your exact position. Until your next turn, you have concealment. Alternatively, you can take a full-round action to entirely obscure your exact position. Until your next action, you have total concealment.

You are trained to fight close-order.
Prerequisite: Base attack bonus +1
Benefit: You may take a 5 ft. step into the space occupied by a willing ally, that ally can then step into your space immediately, so that you exchange spaces. You may not perform this action with an ally who is immobilized. Neither you nor your ally provokes an attack of opportunity.
Special: Both you and your ally must be small or medium sized.

CLOSED MIND [General]
Your mind is better able to resist psionics than normal.
Benefit: You get a +2 bonus on all saving throws to resist powers. The benefit of this feat applies only to psionic powers and psi-like abilities. This is an exception to the psionics–magic transparency rule.
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).

This number may not exceed your base attack bonus. The changes to attack rolls and Armor Class last until your next action.

Benefit: When you make an attack of opportunity, you may add sneak attack damage.

This may negate the benefits of Combat Reflexes for the current round.
Normal: Only the loss of Dex bonus to Armor Class or flanked status allow a character to add sneak attack damage.
Special: You can take this feat multiple times. Its effects do not stack. Each time you take the feat, it applies to a new weapon.

CONCERTED ATTACK [General, Fighter]
You are well trained in directing the efforts of others during a coordinated attack
Prerequisite: Base attack bonus +3
Benefit: You can direct the efforts of your allies to gain an additional bonus to flanking efforts. When you are leading a flanking effort against a single opponent, your allies involved in the melee gain a +4 flanking bonus on the attack roll.
Normal: Gain a +2 on your attack roll when flanking
Special: You must be able to effectively communicate with the other flanking members.

Prerequisite: Combat Reflexes
Benefit: You may declare a Counter Charge as a readied action against any opponent who charges you. The action is triggered the moment your opponent comes within 5’ of your reach. You take a 5’ step forward and make a single attack at your full base attack bonus. Your opponent suffers the -2 AC penalty for charging. On a successful attack you deal double damage. Stack this bonus damage with the weapon’s critical multiplier on a critical hit. While this shortens the distance your opponent has to charge, it does not alter the bonuses and penalties of the charge if the opponent moves less than 10’ because of your action.
Normal: Normally, you may only deal double damage against a charging opponent with weapons that may be set against charging foes.

You must devote your full attention to the crafting process in order of it to count towards your total, and you suffer a -10 penalty to your spot and listen checks while doing it. Simply add up all the hours you spent crafting until you get the total working hours required to craft the item (Market Value / 1000gp * 8 Hours). You still may not work more than 8 hours in a given day.

CRAFT COGNIZANCE CRYSTAL [Item Creation, Psionic]
You can create psionic cognizance crystals that store power points.
Prerequisite: Manifester level 3rd

Doing so costs half the XP, half the raw materials, and half the time it would take to craft that item in the first place.

CRAFT MAGIC TATTOO [Item Creation]
You can create magical tattoos that duplicate the effects of a single spell.
Prerequisite: Caster level 9th, Craft (Artist) 5 ranks
Benefit: You can apply your magic and artistry together to create a magic tattoo. The tattoo is created to emulate the effects of a single spell as if it were a spell-like ability.

To craft a magic tattoo, you and the recipient must each spend 1/25th of its base price in XP. The creator must also use up raw materials costing half of the base price.
Special: The power of the tattoo can only be used once each day. The caster level is based on the lowest caster level needed to cast the spell. If two or more magic tattoos are attempted on the same body (regardless of size), the magics will disrupt each other (i.e. you may never have more than one magic tattoo). A magic tattoo can be removed using a remove curse cast at one level higher than the spell level of the spell effect granted by the tattoo (using heighten spell or a similar method). The act of casting remove curse only takes away the magic. The tattoo itself remains until removed through mundane methods. The tattoo is treated as a Miscellaneous Magic Item for all other intents and purposes.

You can also mend a broken wondrous item if it is one that you could make. Doing so costs half the XP, half the raw materials, and half the time it would take to craft that item in the first place. Some wondrous items incur extra costs in material components or XP, as noted in their descriptions. These costs are in addition to those derived from the item’s base price. You must pay such a cost to create an item or to mend a broken one.

CRAFTSMAN [General]
You have a greater understanding on how to create things
Prerequisite: 5 ranks in any two Craft skills
Benefit: You gain a +2 bonus to all Craft skills

CREATE OPPORTUNITY [General, Fighter]
Just when you thought you were as slippery as slippery can be, here comes somebody just a little bit quicker.
Prerequisite: Dex 15, Combat Reflexes, Base attack bonus +3
Benefit: In lieu of ALL your attacks of opportunity for one round, you may make a single attack of opportunity against a target who moves more than 5' and moves through your threatened area in a manner that does not normally provoke an attack of opportunity.
Normal: Tumbling successfully does not provoke an attack of opportunity. Spring attack does not provoke an attack of opportunity from the attacker's target. You get no attacks of opportunity against a target with at least 50% cover.
Notes: If you have made even a single attack of opportunity since your last action, you may not use this feat, since you can no longer give up ALL attacks of opportunity. If the target has the feat Mobility, the mobility bonus to AC still applies.

CREATE WONDROUS CREATURE [Item Creation]
You know how to create Aberrations, Beasts, Magical Beasts, Monstrous Humanoids, and Plant creatures.
Prerequisite: Spellcaster or Manifester level 5th, Knowledge (Arcana or Psionics) 5 ranks, Knowledge (Nature) 5 ranks
Benefit: You can create any Aberration, Magical Beast, Monstrous Humanoid, or Plant creature whose prerequisites you meet. The creature created is not necessarily under your control. To create a creature you need access to a lab, similar to an alchemist's lab, of at least 500 gp value. The creation of a creature involves taking a similar creature or creature(s) and subjecting them to various spells and grafting techniques. There is a chance that the experiment will be a failure. To create a creature you must succeed both a Knowledge (Arcana or Psionics) and a Knowledge (Nature) check (DC 20 + CR of attempted creature). You may not 'take 10' or 'take 20' on these rolls. However, you get a +1 circumstance bonus for every attempt at a specific creature that you have previously made, whether successful or not. If both Knowledge skill checks are failed the creature dies a horrible death. If one Knowledge skill check fails and the other succeeds the resulting creation is horribly deformed in some way and is hostile towards you. The base price of a creature is the challenge rating squared times 1000gp (CR x CR x 1000gp). Creating a creature takes 1 day for every 1,000 gp in its base price. To create a creature, you must spend 1/25 of its base price in XP and use up raw materials costing half of its base price. The minimum caster level for creating a creature is 2 x CR of the intended creature. The appropriate spells must be used in order to add extraordinary (Ex), spell-like (Sp), and/or supernatural (Su) abilities.
Special: If a Charm Monster spell is cast every day of the creation process, a successfully created creature will be in permanent servitude to you. If a Limited Wish is used in the creation process a successfully created creature will be in permanent servitude to you and will even follow a life goal, determined by you, after you have died. If a Wish is used in the creation process a successfully created creature and its descendants will follow a life goal, determined by you, even after you have died.
Notes: Characters should be encouraged to create their own unique magical beasts and not just create another Owlbear, Tendriculos, Mimic, or Skum. If the creature is a new creature the DM should determine the CR. As failures in the use of the feat can result in tremendous amounts of pain and death for the creature created your DM may restrict the use of this feat to evil, or at least non-good, characters. In games that use the Epic rules this feat may not be available, as to a certain extent it duplicates the effects of Epic Spells based on the Life seed.

CRIMINAL [General]
You are practiced in the arts of petty crime.
Prerequisite: Any non-lawful alignment
Benefit: Forgery, Open Lock and Sleight of Hand are considered class skills, regardless of your class.

CRIPPLER [General, Fighter]
You are adept at disabling the natural weapons of various creatures.
Prerequisite: Str 13, Power Attack, Knowledge (nature) 4 ranks)
Benefit: If you score a critical hit or make a successful sneak attack against a creature that has a natural attack, instead of dealing extra damage from the critical or giving up 2d6 of Sneak Attack damage, you may elect to disable one of that creature’s natural attacks. If the creature uses this natural attack in a round, it takes a -5 penalty on all attack rolls for that round. If it avoids using that attack, any other attacks it makes are not penalized. This penalty lasts until the creature receives a DC 15 Heal check, receives magical healing, regeneration, or is healed by rest.

CROSS-CLASS LEARNING [General]
Pick two skills that become class skills for all your classes.
Benefit: Pick any two skills. The selected skills become class skills for all your classes from this point on.
Special: This feat may be taken multiple times, but does not stack with itself. Choose two new skills to become class skills each time it is taken.

CRYSTAL PSIWEAPON [Psionic]
You can implant a personality fragment in a psionic weapon.
Prerequisite: Manifester level 1st
Benefit: You can seed a personality fragment in a masterwork weapon embedded with a crystal or imbued with permanent psionic power, granting the weapon sentience and linking it to your life-force. The seeded weapon becomes in all respects a psicrystal that improves with your level, gaining all special abilities accordingly. Apply the psicrystal’s natural armor bonus as a bonus to the weapon’s hardness. Because the weapon is linked to your life-force, you can telekinetically summon it to your hand at a range of 10 feet as a free action by expending your psionic focus.
Special: You can apply other feats that enhance psicrystals, such as the Improved Psicrystal and Power Psicrystal feats, to your crystal psiweapon.

CUTTING WORDS [General]
You are a master of put-downs and cutting remarks.
Prerequisite: Cha 13, Intimidate 5 ranks
Benefit: You may use your Intimidate skill to Demoralize an Opponent at a range of up to 100’ and without needing to Threaten your opponent in melee combat. This remains a standard action that does not provoke an attack of opportunity. You must be able to speak and your target must be able to hear and understand your words.
Normal: To Demoralize Opponent you must threaten them in melee combat.

DAMAGE REDUCTION [Epic, Fighter]
You take less damage from all attacks.
Prerequisite: Con 21
Benefit: You gain damage reduction 3/–. This does not stack with damage reduction granted by magic items or nonpermanent magical effects, but it does stack with any damage reduction granted by permanent magical effects, class features, or this feat itself.
Special: A character can gain this feat multiple times. Each time he or she gains the feat, his or her damage reduction increases by 3.

DEADLY PRECISION [Stealth]
You empty your mind of all distracting emotion, becoming an instrument of deadly precision.
Prerequisite: Dex 15, Base attack bonus +5, Sneak Attack 1d6
Benefit: You have deadly accuracy with your sneak attacks. You can reroll any result of 1 on your sneak attack’s extra damage dice. You must keep the result of the reroll, even if it is another 1.

DEAFENING SONG [Epic, Song]
Your songs can deafen your foes.
Prerequisite: Perform 24 ranks, Bardic music class feature
Benefit: You can use song or poetics to temporarily deafen all enemies within a 30-foot spread from you. A successful Fortitude save (DC 10 + 1/2 the your level + your Charisma modifier) negates the effect. The deafening effect lasts for as long as youcontinues the deafening song. You can choose to exclude any characters from this effect. You may sing, play, or recite a deafening song while taking other mundane actions, but not magical ones (see the bard’s inspire courage ability for more details). You may keep up the deafening song for a maximum of 10 rounds. Using the deafening song counts as one of your uses of song or poetics for the day.

DEAFENING SPELL [Metamagic]
The sonic volume of your spells reaches deafening levels.
Benefit: Deafening Spell can be used with any spell that deals sonic damage or has the (Sonic) descriptor. In addition to the spell’s normal effect, those affected by the spell must make an additional Fortitude save at the DC of the spell or be deafened for a number of rounds equal to the spell’s level. If the spell already deafens the target, Deafening Spell increases the duration of the deafening effect by a number of rounds equal to the spell’s level. A deafening spell takes up a spell slot one level higher than normal.

DEATH FROM AFAR [Special, Stealth]
You have learned to use your Death Attack ability at range.
Prerequisite: Death Attack class ability, Sneak attack +6d6
Benefit: You can use your Death Attack ability with any proficient ranged weapon up to a range of 30 feet. All other Death Attack limitations, such as the need to study your opponent for 3 rounds, still apply.

DEATH OF ENEMIES [Epic, Special]
Your critical hits can kill your chosen enemies.
Prerequisite: Bane Of Enemies, Survival 30 ranks, Five favored enemies
Benefit: Any time you score a critical hit against one of your favored enemies, it must make a Fortitude save (DC 10 + 1/2 your ranger class level + your Wisdom modifier) or die instantly.
Special: Creatures immune to critical hits can’t be affected by this feat.

DECEITFUL [General]
You really know how to lie.
Benefit: You get a +2 bonus on all Disguise checks and Forgery checks.

DECEPTIVE [General]
You are good at fooling others.
Benefit: You get a +2 bonus on all Bluff and Disguise checks.

DEEP IMPACT [Psionic, Fighter]
You can strike your foe with a melee weapon as if making a touch attack.
Prerequisite: Psionic Weapon, Base attack bonus +5, Str 13
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.

DEFENSE SPECIALIZATION [Special, Fighter]
You have mastered using your chosen weapon for defense.
Prerequisite: Weapon Focus (with Melee Weapon), Weapon Specialization (with Melee Weapon), Fighter level 12th
Benefit: When wielding your chosen weapon you gain a +2 dodge bonus to your armor class.

DEFENSIVE ARTS [General, Fighter]
You are an expert in defending yourself
Benefit: You gain a +1 dodge bonus to Armor Class against melee attacks
Special: A condition that makes you lose your Dexterity bonus to Armor Class also makes you lose dodge bonuses. Also, dodge bonuses stack, unlike most other types of bonuses.

DEFENSIVE DISARM [General, Fighter]
When attacked with a weapon, you may attempt to disarm the foe attacking you.
Prerequisite: Combat Expertise, Int 13, Improved Disarm
Benefit: If you are attacked with a melee weapon and missed, you may make a Disarm attempt on the weapon as an Attack of Opportunity, subject to the standard restrictions on Attacks of Opportunity in a round.
Special: An opponent and their weapon count as the same target for determining eligibility to Attacks of Opportunity.

DEFENSIVE STUDY [General, Fighter]
Allows you to use your intelligence modifier instead of your dexterity modifier for armor class adjustments.
Prerequisite: 2 ranks of Sense Motive, Alertness
Benefit: Grants you the ability to substitute your intelligence modifier for your dexterity modifier when calculating armor class against a single opponent. To gain this benefit, you must be able to assess your opponent completely for at least three rounds of combat. During this period of study you are only able to take a partial action each round. Through the study of attack patterns you understand the best ways to avoid the attack methods used by your opponent.

DEFENSIVE SUNDER [General, Fighter]
When attacked with a weapon, you may attempt to break the weapon.
Prerequisite: Str 13, Power Attack, Improved Sunder
Benefit: If you are attacked with a melee weapon and missed, you may make a Sunder attempt on the weapon as an Attack of Opportunity, subject to the standard restrictions on Attacks of Opportunity in a round.
Special: An opponent and their weapon count as the same target for determining eligibility to Attacks of Opportunity.

DEFENSIVE TRIP [General]
You can maintain your defense when making a trip attempt.
Prerequisite: Improved Trip, Base attack bonus +4
Benefit: When you fail your Strength check when initiating a trip attempt, your opponent may not react and attempt to trip you in turn.

DEFLECT ARROWS [General, Fighter]
You can knock arrows out of the air with your bare hands.
Prerequisite: Improved Unarmed Strike, Dex 13
Benefit: You must have at least one hand free (holding nothing) to use this feat. Once per round when you would normally be hit with a ranged weapon, you may deflect it so that you take no damage from it. You must be aware of the attack and not flatfooted. Attempting to deflect a ranged weapon doesn’t count as an action. Unusually massive ranged weapons and ranged attacks generated by spell effects can’t be deflected.
Special: A monk may select Deflect Arrows as a bonus feat at 2nd level, even if she does not meet the prerequisites. A fighter may select Deflect Arrows as one of his fighter bonus feats.

DEFLECT ATTACK [General, Fighter]
You can be more aggressive when Fighting Defensively.
Prerequisite: Int 13, Str 13, Combat Expertise, Improved Sunder, Power Attack
Benefit: When you are Fighting Defensively, your opponent provokes an Attack of Opportunity just before attacking you. Since you are Fighting Defensively, your Attack of Opportunity has a -4 penalty to attack. If the opponent attacks you with a weapon, your Attack of Opportunity can only be used as a Sunder attack against the weapon that is used to attack you. If the opponent attacks you with an unarmed attack or a natural weapon, you attack the unarmed strike or natural weapon, effectively making an Attack of Opportunity against your opponent. If your attack actually damages the opponent's weapon (or the opponent, in the case of an unarmed strike or natural weapon), subtract the damage dealt to the weapon or opponent from the damage you would sustain from their attack. In this way, it is possible to negate the damage from an opponent's attack.
Special: You cannot use this feat if attacking with a piercing weapon or unarmed if your opponent is using a weapon to attack you, unless through an ability or feat you can make Sunder attacks with a piercing weapon or unarmed (as Sunder attacks generally require you to be using a slashing or bludgeoning weapon).

DEFT HANDS [General]
Your fingers are agile and strong.
Benefit: You get a +2 bonus on all Sleight of Hand checks and Use Rope checks.

DEFT LUNGE [General, Fighter]
You are trained to take advantage of openings in an opponent's defenses
Prerequisite: Dex 13, Combat Expertise
Benefit: When you use the attack action or full attack action in non-mounted melee combat, you may take as much as a -5 penalty to Armor Class to add the same number (up to +5) to a single attack roll in the same round. This number may not exceed your base attack bonus. Unless you also have the Mobility feat, this attack draws an Attack of Opportunity from the defender. The changes to Armor Class last until your next action.

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.

DELAY SPELL [Metamagic]
You may delaty the effect of a spell you cast.
Benefit: A delayed spell doesn’t activate immediately when cast. Instead, when you cast the spell, you may specify a number of rounds between one and five to delay the effect of the spell. When that number of rounds has passed the spell takes effect. The caster may cause the spell to take effect earlier than they initially selected by taking a standard action that provokes an attack of opportunity. Only area, personal, and touch spells can be delayed. Any decisions you would make about the delayed spell, including attack rolls, designating targets, or determining or shaping an area, are decided when the spell is cast. Any effects resolved by those affected by the spell, including saving throws, are decided when the delay period ends. A delayed spell can be dispelled normally during the delay, and can be detected normally in the area or on the target by the use of spells that can detect spell effects. A delayed spell takes up a spell slot three levels higher than the spell’s actual level.
Notes: The spell is cast normally and a Spellcraft roll can determine what was cast, how and when it will go off. As noted the delayed spell can be detected and dispelled while it is waiting to take effect, however it is not readily visible or detectable by normal senses. It is not technically invisible; it simply exists as a magic aura of the same shape of the spell effect until it takes effect. The delayed spell can be noticed with a DC40 Spot check, although this will only give the spotter an awareness of where the magic effect will be, not what it will do or look like when it goes off. Detect Magic will show the user what they would normally discover when observing the spell in effect with Detect Magic.

DESTRUCTIVE FORCE [Metamagic]
You can increase the damage limitations of certain spells.
Benefit: You can raise the damage cap of capped spells by two dice for each increase in the spell's level by one.
Example: The fireball spell has a damage cap of 10d6 (at 10th level). Using this feat, a 15th level caster could instead do 12d6 points of damage using a fourth level spell slot, 14d6 damage using a fifth level spell slot, or 15d6 (with a damage cap of 16d6) using a sixth level spell slot.
Notes: This feat can be used with any spell having a damage cap expressed in the spell's description. A damage cap can be identified by a statement similar to deals #d# points of damage per caster level (maximum #d#). It would have no effect on a spell like magic missile as in this case the cap is on the number of missiles produced, rather than the damage of each missile.

DETECT POISON [General]
You are a student of poisons and how they are used.
Benefit: You can use your Search skill to detect poison without casting the detect poison spell. This is an extraordinary ability that requires a full round action with a DC equal to the save DC of the poison and can only be done at a range of 5 feet.

DETERMINED SOUL [General]
Through your will alone, you can increase your resilience
Prerequisite: Iron Will
Benefit: Add your Wisdom bonus to your hit points.

DEVASTATING CRITICAL [Epic, Fighter]
You can kill your foes with your critical hits.
Prerequisite: Str 25, Cleave, Great Cleave, Improved Critical (chosen Weapon), Overwhelming Critical (chosen Weapon), Power Attack, Weapon Focus (chosen Weapon)
Benefit: Whenever you score a critical hit with the chosen weapon, the target must make a Fortitude save (DC 10 + 1/2 character level + your Strength modifier) or die instantly. (Creatures immune to critical hits can’t be affected by this feat.)
Special: A character can gain this feat multiple times. Its effects do not stack. Each time a character takes the feat, it applies to a different type of weapon.

DEXTEROUS DODGE [General, Fighter]
You are skilled at dodging attacks.
Benefit: For the purpose of determining Armor Class, treat your Dexterity score as 2 points higher than its actual value. This feat can be taken several times, and stacks with itself.
Special: This feat grants virtual access to the Dodge feat, allowing you to take other feats for which Dodge is a prerequisite.

DEXTEROUS FORTITUDE [Epic, Stealth]
You can use reflex when fortitude would normally apply.
Prerequisite: Dex 25, Slippery mind class feature
Benefit: Once per round, when targeted by an effect that requires a Fortitude saving throw, you may make a Reflex save instead to avoid the effect (evasion is not applicable).


DEXTEROUS WILL [Epic, Stealth]
You can use reflex when will would normally apply.
Prerequisite: Dex 25, Slippery mind class feature
Benefit: Once per round, when targeted by an effect that requires a Will saving throw, you may make a Reflex save instead to avoid the effect (evasion is not applicable).

DIEHARD [General]
You can keep going until your final breath.
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]
You are good at studying things.
Benefit: You get a +2 bonus on all Appraise checks and Decipher Script checks.

DIMINUTIVE WILD SHAPE [Epic, Wild]
You can change shape into diminutive animals.
Prerequisite: Ability to wild shape into a Huge animal
Benefit: You can use wild shape to take the shape of a Diminutive animal.
Normal: Without this feat, a character cannot wild shape into an animal of smaller than Tiny size.

DIRE CHARGE [Epic, Fighter]
You charge into combat with incredible ferocity.
Prerequisite: Improved Initiative
Benefit: If you charge a foe during the first round of combat (or the surprise round, if the you are allowed to act in it), you can make a full attack against the opponent charged.
Normal: Without this feat, a character may only make a single attack as part of a charge.

DISARM AND DENY [General, Fighter]
You can steal a weapon from your opponent.
Prerequisite: Int 13, Combat Expertise, Improved Disarm
Benefit: When you succeed at an armed disarm attempt and have a free hand, you can catch your opponent’s weapon after they drop it as a free action. If you do not wish to catch the weapon, or if you do not have a free hand, you may knock the weapon up to 20’ instead of your opponent’s square. You may choose the square the weapon lands in, but there must be an unobstructed straight path to that square and the square must not be occupied.
Normal: You can snatch an opponent’s weapon using disarm but only if you performed the disarm attempt unarmed. A successful armed disarm drops the opponent’s weapon in their current space.

DISCOVER PSIONIC POWER [Psionic]
Through introspection, meditation and training you are able to learn additional psionic powers.
Benefit: You discover one additional psionic power of any level that you can manifest.
Special: You can choose this feat multiple times but may only learn one additional psionic power per power level.

DISEASE RESISTANCE [General]
You are naturally resistant to disease.
Benefit: You gain a +4 bonus on all Fortitude saves against disease.

DISGUISE SPELL [Metamagic, Song]
You can disguise your spells in a performance.
Prerequisite: Bardic music class feature, Perform 12 ranks
Benefit: You have mastered the art of casting spells unobtrusively, mingling verbal and somatic components into its music and performances so that others rarely catch you in the act of casting a spell. Like a silent, stilled spell, a disguised spell can’t be identified through Spellcraft. Your performance is obvious to everyone in the vicinity, but the fact that you are casting a spell isn’t. Unless the spell visibly emanates from you or observers have some other means of determining its source, they don’t know where the effect came from. A disguised spell uses up a spell slot one level higher than the spell’s actual level.

DISPEL MASTERY [Magical]
You are an expert at dispelling spells.
Benefit: You get a +3 bonus on dispel checks, and the maximum bonus for all your dispel checks is also increased by +3.
Notes: In addition to dispel magic and greater dispelling, this feat could also be of use when casting break enchantment or quench.

DISRUPTING ATTACK [General]
You are exceptionally good at distracting creatures.
Prerequisite: Base attack bonus +2
Benefit: Any creature that needs to make a Concentration check as a result of your action or attack does so with a -5 penalty.

DISTANCE KI STRIKE [Martial Style]
You are able to focus your ki in order to strike an opponent at a distance.
Prerequisite: Ki Strike (lawful) class ability, Stunning Fist
Benefit: As a full round action that counts as one of your stunning fist uses per day, you can make a ranged touch attack at your highest unarmed attack bonus against any opponent within 30 ft. A successful attack roll inflicts force damage equal to your base unarmed strike damage, modified by your Wis bonus. Your strength bonus does not add to your attack or damage roll. This can be combined with all other special monk unarmed attacks normally except quivering palm. Distance Ki Strike is a supernatural ability and a failed ranged touch attack counts against the total number of times that you can use this ability per day.

DISTANT SHOT [Epic, Fighter]
You can ignore range penalties.
Prerequisite: Dex 25, Far Shot, Point Blank Shot, Spot 20 ranks
Benefit: You may throw or fire a ranged weapon at any target within line of sight, with no penalty for range.

DIVINE ARMOR [Divine]
You can channel energy to enhance your body or armor.
Prerequisite: Ability to turn or rebuke undead, Cha 13, Divine Might, Extra Turning
Benefit: By spending one of your turn or rebuke undead attempts, your armor or body gains a sacred (if you channel positive energy) or profane (if you channel negative energy) bonus to Armor Class equal to your charisma bonus for a number of rounds equal to your charisma bonus. When active, your armor or body glows with divine light (or a profane aura) in a radius of 5 feet. The bonus provided by Divine Armor is fully effective against incorporeal creatures.

DIVINE ARMOR OF THE SOUL [Divine]
You can channel energy to defend yourself against life draining attacks.
Prerequisite: Ability to turn or rebuke undead, Cha 13, Divine Ghost Armor, Extra Turning
Benefit: By spending one of your turn or rebuke undead attempts, you become immune to the ability draining and level draining attacks of the undead for a number of rounds equal to your charisma bonus.

DIVINE AWE [Divine]
You can channel energy to shake the resolve of those attacking you.
Prerequisite: Ability to turn or rebuke undead, Cha 13, Extra Turning
Benefit: By spending one of your turn or rebuke undead attempts and taking a standard action, you surround yourself with an aura of awe. This effect lasts for 1 round plus one round per charisma bonus. Anyone attacking you in melee combat must make a will save DC (10 + half your turning level) or be shaken for one round. This is considered a fear effect.
Example: Thomas the 6th level Cleric activates Divine Awe. His charisma is 16 so for the next 4 rounds he is cloaked in an aura of awe. Later that round he is attacked by a troll with a club. The troll must make a Will save DC 13. It fails and is shaken (-2 attack, saves, skills and ability checks) until its next action. The troll continues to make its attack but it suffers a -2 on its attack roll due to the shaken status effect.

DIVINE BOON [Special]
You can use one of your granted powers one more time than normal each day.
Prerequisite: A domain with a granted power that has a limited number of uses per day
Benefit: Choose one of your granted powers usable a limited number of times per day. You can now use that granted power once more each day.
Special: This feat can be taken multiple times and the effects stack.

DIVINE BURST [Divine]
When you channel to cure or inflict wounds, it affects everyone in an area.
Prerequisite: Ability to turn/rebuke undead, Extra Turning, Divine Touch
Benefit: When using Divine Touch or Divine Ray, the target and every creature within 10’ of the chosen target is affected. This ability uses 3 of your daily turn/rebuke attempts but remains a standard action.

DIVINE DEATHWARD [Divine]
You may channel energy to protect yourself from ability or level draining attacks.
Prerequisite: Ability to turn or rebuke undead, Cha 13, Extra Turning, Divine Might
Benefit: By spending one of your turn or rebuke undead attempts you can negate one negative-energy based ability or level draining attack. Unlike other Divine feats, you can use Divine Deathward like a reaction (similar to a saving throw) without spending an action to channel the energy for the feat.

DIVINE DISPEL [Divine]
You can negate magic through turning.
Prerequisite: Turn or Rebuke Undead ability, Extra Turning
Benefit: You can dispel or counter a magic spell by making a turning check as if turning an undead creature of the opposing spellcaster's level. You can only dispel spells with the 'evil' descriptor (if you turn undead) or the 'good' descriptor (if you rebuke undead). A spell that is dispelled as it is being cast has no effect whatsoever; otherwise, it ends as if its duration had run out. This power cannot affect spells immune to dispel magic. Each attempt to use Divine Dispel uses up one of your turn or rebuke attempts for the day, whether the attempt is successful or not.
Notes: If your religion is strongly opposed to law or chaos, your DM may allow you to channel energy against spells with the lawful or chaotic descriptor instead, and other types of Divine Dispel are certainly possible for certain religions.

DIVINE DOMINION [Special, Magical]
Add one additional domain to your divine casting repertoire
Prerequisite: Knowledge (Religion) 6 ranks, Any domain
Benefit: Select an additional domain from your deity's domain list. All spells within the new domain list are considered domain spells for you. You do not gain the domain powers granted; you only gain the ability to use the domain spells listed as domain spells for your character.
Special: This feat can be taken several times for different domains, although deities have a limited number of domains available to their worshippers.

DIVINE ELEMENTAL FURY [Special]
You can channel energy to deal additional damage against specific elemental creatures in melee combat.
Prerequisite: Ability to turn or destroy elemental creature, One of the Air, Earth, Fire or Water domains
Benefit: Spend one of your turn/destroy elemental attempts to add 2d6 points of elemental damage to all of your successful melee attacks against one type of elemental creature until the end of your next action. The type of elemental creature affected depends on your domain (Air domain inflicts extra damage against earth creatures, Earth domain against air creatures, Fire domain against water creatures and Water domain against fire creatures).

DIVINE FLAME [Divine]
You can channel energy to sheath your weapon with sacred or profane flame.
Prerequisite: Cha 13, Ability to turn or rebuke undead
Benefit: By spending one of your turn or rebuke undead attempts, you can sheath your weapon with sacred or profane flame for a number of rounds equal to your Charisma bonus. If you channel positive energy, your weapon is sheathed in white flames that inflict +1d6 points of sacred damage against evil opponent. If you channel negative energy, you weapon is sheathed in black flames that inflict +1d6 points of profane damage against good opponents instead. These flames do not give off heat or ignite flammable objects, though sacred flames give off light equal to a torch. The sacred or profane damage inflicted by Divine Flame is unaffected by protection from elements and similar spells and abilities.

DIVINE FORCE OF PERSONALITY [Divine]
Your psyche and devotion is a shield against harm.
Prerequisite: Divine Grace or Dark Blessing class ability, Extra Turning
Benefit: Spend one of you turn or rebuke undead attempts to double your Charisma bonus, but only as applied to saving throws through the Divine Grace or Dark Blessing class abilities. This modifier lasts for a number of rounds equal to your normal Charisma modifier.

DIVINE FURY [Divine]

Special: Opposed factions are creatures whose alignment or type is considered to be in opposition to one your deity’s domains or alignments. When taking this feat, the player should choose one appropriate trait from among the following; good, evil, lawful, chaotic, elemental (any other than that of the deity). They may use this feat only against enemies of that type. Damage type would be whatever is opposite of the enemy type chosen; unholy, holy, chaos, law, elemental type of deity, respectively.
Example: Brother Landen, priest of law takes Divine Strike (against Chaos). In combat he takes a standard action to activate Divine Strike and chooses to expend a third level spell he had memorized along with his turning attempt.

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.

Prerequisite: Combat Reflexes, Base attack bonus +2

DRACONIC BLOODLINE [Magical, Trait]
The blood of Dragons truly runs through your veins.
Benefit: You may treat the Sorcerer class as a favored class in addition to any other favored class that you gain by race.
Special: You can only take this feat at character creation.

DRAGON WILD SHAPE [Epic, Wild]
You can wild shape into the form of a true dragon.
Prerequisite: Wis 30, Knowledge (nature) 30 ranks, Wild shape 6/day
Benefit: You may use wild shape to change into a dragon (black, blue, green, red, white, brass, bronze, copper, gold, or silver). The size limitation is the same as the your limitation on animal size. You gains all extraordinary and supernatural abilities of the dragon whose form you take.

Benefit: You take no vehicle speed penalty when making an attack while in a moving vehicle. Also, if you are the driver, you can take your attack action to make an attack at any point along the vehicle’s movement.

DRUIDICAL BLESSING [Magical]
Allows anyone to use 0-level druidical spells.
Prerequisite: Wis 13, Knowledge (Nature) 1 rank
Benefit: Grants you the ability to understand up to your wisdom modifier's worth of 0-level druidical spells. Regardless of the number of spells learned only one may be cast per day, and you must rest and memorise your spell as a druid normally does. You are bound by all the strictures a normal druid is for your actions, and can have your requests for spells denied, just like a normal druid.
Special: This feat may be taken multiple times; however, no additional spells can ever be learned (past the individual's wisdom modifier). Each additional time this feat is taken, the caster may prepare one additional spell per day. The total maximum number of orisons that can be cast in a single day (regardless of the number of times this feat i! s taken), is also limited to the caster's wisdom modifier.

DUAL ENERGY SPELL [Metamagic]
You can interchange two types of energy for one another.
Benefit: When you learn this feat, select two spell energy designators from the list Acid, Cold, Electricity, Fire, or Sonic. With this feat, a spell of one of the two types you selected can have its type changed from one to the other. Any damage the spell causes of its usual energy type is now changed into the new element type. Effects other than elemental damage will not change. A Dual Element Spell uses up a spell slot of its normal level.
Example: Davoud is a wizard who learns this feat for fire and acid. He can opt to prepare his melf's acid arrow spell normally, or he can apply this feat to it, and change the designator from Acid to Fire. The spell damage will now ignore acid resistance and be subject to fire resistance. It will still cause (fire) damage over three rounds. Likewise, he can prepare a fireball as either a fire or an acid spell.
Notes: This feat includes the benefit of the Fire to Ice feat from previous editions of the Netbook of Feats. Although in the SRD the Energy Substitution feat can be used with spells to cause Sonic damage, newer publications have updated this feat to no longer allow this, presumably as very few creatures have resistance to Sonic damage compared to the other energy types. As such the DM may similarly restrict this feat, or alternatively may allow spells to produce sonic damage but with the damage reduced by one die-size. For example, using this feat on Fireball would allow you to do 1d4 Sonic damage per level (maximum 10d4) rather than 1d6 Fire damage per level (maximum 10d6).

DUAL SPELL [Metamagic]
You can cast two spells with one action.
Prerequisite: Any two metamagic feats
Benefit: You may cast two Dual Spells as a single action. Casting a dual spell takes as long as the longest casting time of the two spells (and at least a full round for a spontaneous caster). If either is dispelled or interrupted both spells are lost. Casters who memorize spells must designate the two spells to be cast together at the time they are memorized but each takes up a separate spell slot. Spontaneous casters may designate any two spells at the time of casting. Each spell in a Dual Spell takes up a slot two levels higher than it’s actual level.

DIVINE RAY [Divine]
You can channel divine energy to cure or inflict wounds at range.

Prerequisite: Any two metamagic feats
Benefit: You may cast two Dual Spells as a single action. Casting a dual spell takes as long as the longest casting time of the two spells (and at least a full round for a spontaneous caster).

ELVEN ARCHERY [General, Fighter, Racial]
You are an expert in the art of elven archery.
Prerequisite: Elf or half-elf, Dex 13, Point Blank Shot, Base attack bonus +4
Benefit: When using any type of bow that you are proficient in, you can use your Dex modifier as a bonus to damage rolls against all opponents within 30 feet. This bonus does not stack with the damage bonus provided by a mighty bow and cannot be applied against a target immune to critical hits.

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 1-1/2 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.

EMPOWER PSYCHIC STRIKE [Special, Psionic]
You can channel more power into your Psychic Strike attacks.
Prerequisite: Psychic Strike class ability

Your powers are more powerful.
Prerequisite: Spell-like ability at caster level 6th
Benefit: Choose one of the creature’s spell-like abilities, subject to the restrictions below. The creature can use that ability as an empowered spell-like ability three times per day (or less, if the ability is normally usable only once or twice per day). When a creature uses an empowered spell-like ability, all variable, numeric effects of the spell-like ability are increased by one half. Saving throws and opposed rolls are not affected. Spell-like abilities without random variables are not affected. The creature can only select a spell-like ability duplicating a spell with a level less than or equal to half its caster level (round down) –2. For a summary, see the table below.
Special: This feat can be taken multiple times. Each time it is taken, the creature can apply it to a different one of its spell-like abilities.

ENABLE CRITICALS [General, Fighter]
You have learned to score critical hits on unusual creature types.
Benefit: Choose one type of creature that is normally immune to critical hits (construct, elemental, ooze, plant, undead). You can score critical hits against that type of creature, despite that this is not generally allowed.
Special: If you choose constructs, you can also score critical hits against inanimate objects. If you choose undead and are using an attack that does not suffer a miss chance against incorporeal opponents (like a ghost touch weapon), you can score critical hits against incorporeal undead.
Notes: This also allows you to use abilities and actions that only work against creatures subject to critical hits, such as Coup de Grace, Sneak Attack and the ranger's Favored Enemy damage bonus. A construct, object, or undead need never make a Fortitude save to survive a coup-de-grace.

ENCHANTED ANIMAL COMPANION [Special]
You have shown yourself to be an ally of all nature's creatures; they, in turn, will respond to your call.
Prerequisite: Animal Companion ability
Benefit: You may select a magical beast or vermin as an animal companion. The level modifier depends on the creature's challenge rating. Creatures with a challenge rating of one or less have no modifier; other creatures use twice their challenge rating minus one, rounded to the closest multiple of three levels. So creatures with a Challenge Rating of 1 have no modifier, CR 2: level -3, CR 4: level -6, CR 5: level -9, CR 6-7: level -12, CR 8: level -15, etc.

ENDURANCE [General]
You have great endurance.
Benefit: You gain a +4 bonus on the following checks and saves: Swim checks made to resist nonlethal damage, Constitution checks made to continue running, Constitution checks made to avoid nonlethal damage from a forced march, Constitution checks made to hold your breath, Constitution checks made to avoid nonlethal damage from starvation or thirst, Fortitude saves made to avoid nonlethal damage from hot or cold environments, and Fortitude saves made to resist damage from suffocation. Also, you may sleep in light or medium armor without becoming fatigued.
Normal: A character without this feat who sleeps in medium or heavier armor is automatically fatigued the next day.
Special: A ranger automatically gains Endurance as a bonus feat at 3rd level. He need not select it.

Example: Burning Hands (1st level) affects anyone in a 15 ft long cone, starting at the caster, so an Expanded Burning Hands (2nd level) affects anyone in a 20 ft long cone.

Benefit: With this feat, you get to add the spells of one clerical domain to the spell list of one of your classes, regardless of your spellcasting class. You cast these spells as if they were normal spells of your spellcaster class. The new spells become arcane spells if you have an arcane spellcaster class but in this case you must still learn the spells in the normal manner; this feat only adds them to your spell list. If the domain power of the domain you picked is a spell-like ability, you get this spell added to your spell lists, as well. Examples include speak with animals of the animal domain and freedom of movement of the travel domain.
Special: A Wizard must always research these spells from scratch, using the standard game rules. As a divine spellcaster, you cannot learn domains inappropriate to the powers you serve. You can learn this feat multiple times. Each time you learn it you can choose to add the knowledge of the spells of one additional domain to one of your spellcasting classes. This can be a domain you already know if you are adding it to a different spellcasting class.

Special: Somebody who has readied an action to counterspell and who fails to see through your trickery will think you are about to cast the spell being faked.
Notes: If the spell effect would have been unnoticeable (such as most divination spells) or you can fake the effects of the spell (perhaps through illusion, alchemical pyrotechnics or a willing accomplice), people watching you will generally believe the spell was real. Bluff, Perform, Craft (alchemy) and several other skills may be helpful in achieving this, but faking the spell effects themselves is outside the scope of this feat.

FALL GUY [General]
You know how to take a fall.
Benefit: If you fall or jump you can reduce the damage taken by treating the fall as if it were 10’ shorter. You also gain a +5 bonus to skill checks to reduce falling damage. This effect stacks with similar benefits from other feats and skills.
Normal: Falling damage is typically 1d6 per 10’ you fall.

FAMILIAR CONCENTRATION [Special]
Your familiar can concentrate on spells for you.
Prerequisite: A familiar
Benefit: When you cast a spell that normally requires your concentration, you can let your familiar do the concentrating for you if it is within 5 ft. of you at the time of casting. Your familiar must remain within 5 ft. of you while concentrating to maintain your spell; otherwise your familiar's concentration is automatically broken. To maintain a certain spell, the familiar must have an Intelligence score of 5 + the level of the spell or higher.
Notes: Your DM may let you apply this feat to a paladin's mount, special companion, infernal companion, psicrystal or similar pet.

FAMILIAR DEVELOPMENT [Special]
You have put time and effort into developing your familiar.
Prerequisite: A familiar
Benefit: Your familiar's abilities are figured as if you were two levels higher.
Special: This feat can be learned more than once and stacks with itself, each time raising your level by +2 when determining your familiar's special abilities.
Notes: Your DM may let you apply this feat to a paladin's mount, special companion, infernal companion, psicrystal or similar pet. Penalties associated with losing your familiar are not altered by this feat.

FAMILIAR FEAT [Special]
Your familiar learns a new feat.
Prerequisite: A familiar
Benefit: Your familiar learns any one new feat it can use. This new feat is unavailable to you. In many cases, familiars can learn feats you could not, such as monster feats. If your familiar dies any replacement will also know this extra feat, or a similar feat if the one taken is not available to it (e.g. your former familiar had a feat which required a Fly speed and you choose an earthbound replacement familiar).
Special: Your DM may let you apply this feat to a special mount, special companion, infernal companion, or similar pet.

FAMILIAR FEAT MERGE [Special]
Your familiar learns all the feats you know.
Prerequisite: A familiar
Benefit: Your familiar can use all your feats, just as it can use your skills.
Notes: Many feats are quite useless to familiars.

FAMILIAR FOCUS [Special]
You compensate for any lack in focus when developing your familiar
Prerequisite: A familiar
Benefit: The abilities of your familiar are now based on your character level, not your class level.
Notes: Your DM may let you apply this feat to a paladin's mount, psicrystal or similar pet.

FAMILIAR FORTITUDE [General]
You do not physically suffer from the loss of a familiar.
Benefit: You suffer no ill effects if one of your familiars dies. In addition you are not subject to the normal time period required before summoning a new familiar.

FAMILIAR RANGE EXTENSION [Special]
You can communicate with your familiar over long distances
Prerequisite: A familiar
Benefit: Your empathic communication with your familiar extends out to a range of ten miles.
Notes: Your DM may let you apply this feat to a paladin’s mount, special companion, infernal companion, psicrystal or similar pet.

FAMILIAR SPELL [Epic, Special]
Your familiar learns to cast one of your spells.
Prerequisite: Int 25 or Cha 25 (depending on which is your key ability score for manifesting)
Benefit: Choose one arcane spell you know of 8th level or lower. Your familiar can now use this spell once per day as a spell-like ability, at a caster level equal to your caster level. You cannot bestow a spell to your familiar if the spell normally has a material component cost of more than 1 gp or an XP cost.
Special: A character can gain this feat multiple times. Each time the character takes the feat, he or she can give his or her familiar a different spell-like ability or another daily use of the same spell-like ability.

FAR SHOT [General, Fighter]
You can hit targets at a greater range.
Prerequisite: Point Blank Shot
Benefit: When you use a projectile weapon, such as a bow, its range increment increases by one-half (multiply by 1-1/2). When you use a thrown weapon, its range increment is doubled.
Special: A fighter may select Far Shot as one of his fighter bonus feats.

FAR TOUCH SPELL [Metamagic]
After set-up, you can cast a touch spell on a willing creature at long range.
Benefit: Casting a far touch spell is a two-step process that may only be used on a willing target and may only be used with touch spells. First you tag the spell's eventual target by touching them and naming the spell. The spell is not yet cast, but this is a standard action that provokes an attack of opportunity. Thereafter you may cast this spell upon the target so long as they are within long range (400 feet + 40 feet per level). You may only have one tag active at a given time, even if you have more that one spell prepared with this feat. The tag effect ends when you cast the spell, or make a different tag, or when you renew your spells for the day. A far touch spell uses up a spell slot one level higher than the spell's actual level.
Normal: You must touch the target to cast a spell whose range is touch.
Special: You can gain this feat multiple times. Each time allows you to have an additional tag active simultaneously.

FAST HEALING [Epic]
You heal faster than most people.
Prerequisite: Con 25
Benefit: You gain fast healing 3, or your existing fast healing increases by 3. This feat does not stack with fast healing granted by magic items or nonpermanent magical effects.
Special: This feat may be taken multiple times. Its effects stack.


FAST ITEM CREATION [Magical]
Spellcasters can create items faster.
Prerequisite: Ability to cast 4th level spells
Benefit: You increase the daily rate at which you create magical items by 1000 gp.
Normal: All spellcasters normally create items at the rate of 1000 gp per day.
Special: This feat can be taken several times, and stacks with itself. Each time it is chosen, add 1000 gp to the value of a single magical item that the character can create per day. Thus, items take half the usual time to create with one feat's worth of Fast Item Creation, one-third the usual time with two, and so on. A minimum of one day is still required for the creation of any item, however. In campaigns using Psionics this feat can also be used to speed up the creation of psionic items, for those that meet an alternative (or additional) prerequisite of the ability to manifest 4th level powers.

FAST MOVER [General]
You can move faster than normal
Prerequisite: Dex 15, Run
Benefit: Add +5' to your base movement rate when wearing light armor or less.
Special: This feat can stack with other movement bonuses (such as the barbarian and monks abilities). This feat can be taken multiple times and stacks with itself.

FAST SPELL [Metamagic]
Cuts the casting time of your spells.
Benefit: Fast Spell reduces the casting time of a spell which takes 1 full round to a standard action, and halves the casting time for spells that take longer than a full round to cast. Fast spell has no effect on spells with a casting time shorter than a full round. A Fast Spell uses up a spell slot one level higher than the spell's actual level.
Notes: As with Quicken Spell this feat has no effect on spells when used by spontaneous spellcasters such as Sorcerers or Bards.

FAVORED CLASS [General]
You can select one class not normally associated with your race and consider it a favored class
Prerequisite: Multiclass character
Benefit: When becoming a multi-class character you can select a class that is not normally favored by your race without suffering an experience reward penalty.
Normal: You suffer an experience reward penalty for multi-classing outside of your favored class list.
Special: This feat can only be taken one time. The choice of the non-racially favored class must be explained in the characters history or role-played within the group so that this feat makes sense for the character.

FAVORED ENEMY SPELL [Magical]
You are adept at casting spells against your favored enemies.
Prerequisite: Favored Enemy, ability to cast 2nd level arcane or divine spells
Benefit: When casting a spell against your favored enemies, you can either add half your favored enemy bonus to the spell’s save DC or your full favored enemy bonus to the amount of damage inflicted by the spell.

FEARSOME DISPLAY [General]
You can use an impressive display of weapon prowess to intimidate.
Prerequisite: Weapon Finesse
Benefit: By spending a full-round action doing an impressive display with a weapon for which you have Weapon Finesse, you can use your base attack bonus plus Charisma bonus in lieu of your Intimidation skill. This can only be used to impress, scare and face people down; you cannot use this to interrogate prisoners or with any subtlety.

FEARSOME FORTITUDE [General]
You are exceedingly difficult to kill.
Prerequisite: Con 15, Toughness
Benefit: Whenever you are killed by loss of hit points or a spell effect that causes instant death you may make a special Fortitude save to stay alive. For death spells the DC is the same as standard for a spell of that level (10 + spell level + attribute modifier + special), for death by damage the DC is the number of hit points you are below 0. If successful you do not die, but are stabilized at -9 hit points. You remain unconscious and appear dead to casual observation for ten minutes even if healed during that time. You can not use this feat if you are not conscious at the time you are killed.
Special: You can not use this feat if you are killed by an effect that would leave your body incapable of life such as Disintegration or Decapitation.

FELL SHOT [Psionic, Fighter]
You can strike your foe with a ranged weapon as if making a touch attack.
Prerequisite: Point Blank Shot, Psionic Shot, Base attack bonus +5, Dex 13
Benefit: To use this feat, you must expend your psionic focus. You can resolve your ranged attack as a ranged 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.

FENCING STANCE [General, Fighter]
You defend well with a single weapon light weapon.
Prerequisite: Weapon Finesse
Benefit: When employing a single weapon for which you have Weapon Finesse in one hand, and using the other hand for balance only, your defensive stance improves, granting you a +2 Dodge bonus to Armor Class.

FIERY RAGE [Rage]
Your Rage burns particularly hot and can be sustained longer than usual
Prerequisite: Rage 1/day
Benefit: You can rage for a number of rounds equal to 6 plus your rage-enhanced modified Constitution modifier.
Normal: A fit of rage normally lasts a number of rounds equal to 3 plus the raging character's newly modified Constitution modifier.

You can wild shape into a fine sized animal.
Prerequisite: Ability to wild shape into a Diminutive creature
Benefit: You can use your wild shape to take the shape of a Fine animal.
Normal: Without this feat, a character cannot wild shape into an animal smaller than Tiny size.
FINE WILD SHAPE Copyright 2000, System Reference Document
Comments: Normal should be altered to: "Without this feat, a character cannot wild shape into an animal of smaller than Diminutive size, requiring Diminutive Wild Shape".

FISTS OF ADAMANTINE [Martial Style]
You can make devastating unarmed strikes.
Prerequisite: Improved Unarmed Strike, Fists Of Steel, Stunning Fist, Base attack bonus +4
Benefit: You must declare use of this ability prior to your attack roll and it counts as two of your stunning fist uses per day. On a successful unarmed attack, your bonus damage from Fists of Steel is maximized, allowing you to inflict +6 points of damage.

FISTS OF STEEL [Martial Style]
You can imbue your unarmed strikes with even more force.
Prerequisite: Improved Unarmed Strike, Stunning Fist, Base attack bonus +3
Benefit: You must declare use of this ability prior to your attack roll and it counts as one of your stunning fist uses per day. On a successful unarmed attack, you inflict +1d6 points of damage.

FLASHES OF BRILLIANCE [General]
You are brilliant but erratic with a specific skill.
Benefit: Chose one skill. When you roll a natural 20 (the d20 comes up 20) on a skill check with that skill, you gain a +20 insight bonus to the check. If you attempt the same action repeatedly in the same circumstances, such as when taking 20, this bonus only applies to the first attempt.
Special: You may take this feat multiple times. The effects do not stack. You must choose a different skill each time you take this feat.

FLASHY ATTACK [General, Fighter]
You are able to use an impressive display of prowess to catch your opponents off guard
Prerequisite: Base attack bonus +6, Weapon Finesse
Benefit: As a full round action, you can add your charisma modifier (in addition to all other modifiers) to your attack roll when wielding a weapon eligible for use with Weapon Finesse.
Special: This feat can be taken multiple times, each time it applies to a new weapon. Fighters may take this as a bonus feat.

FLEET OF FOOT [General]
You can turn while running or charging.
Prerequisite: Dex 15, Run
Benefit: When running or charging, you can make a single direction change of 90 degrees or less. You can’t use this feat while wearing medium or heavy armor, or when carrying a medium or heavy load. If you are charging, you must move in a straight line for 10 feet after the turn to maintain the charge.
Normal: Without this feat, you can run or charge only in a straight line.

FLURRY OF BLADES [General, Fighter]
You can strike exceptionally fast with light weapons.
Prerequisite: Weapon Finesse, Weapon Focus (with Weapon), Base attack bonus +3, Dex 13
Benefit: Choose one weapon that you have Weapon Focus and Weapon Finesse for. When unencumbered, in light armor or less, and wielding this type of weapon, you may make one extra attack per round. The attack is at your highest base attack bonus, but each attack (the extra one and all the normal ones) suffer a -2 penalty. You must use the full attack action. This feat does not stack with other feats/abilities that grant extra attacks, such as Flurry of Blows, two weapon use, double weapons, or creatures that make multiple attacks. It does stack with the iterative attacks of a character with high base attack bonus.
Notes: This is a fencing technique, and fits well in a renaissance-style game.

FLYBY ATTACK [Monster, Special]
You can attack in the middle of a flying move.
Prerequisite: Fly speed
Benefit: When flying, the creature can take a move action (including a dive) and another standard action at any point during the move. The creature cannot take a second move action during a round when it makes a flyby attack.
Normal: Without this feat, the creature takes a standard action either before or after its move.

FOCUSED PRIMEVAL ABILITY [Monster]
One of the creature's supernatural or spell-like abilities is more potent than normal.
Prerequisite: Innate supernatural or spell-like ability
Benefit: Choose one of your innate supernatural or spell-like abilities. Add +1to the Difficulty Class for all saving throws made to resist this ability.
Special: This feat can be taken multiple times but its benefits do not stack. Each time that it is taken the creature must apply it to another of its innate supernatural or spell-like abilities. This feat cannot be used with class based spell-like abilities, like the druid's wild shape or paladin's ability to cure disease.

FOCUSED PSIONIC POWER [Psionic]
Choose one psionic discipline. Your powers from this discipline are more potent and capable of piercing spell resistance more easily than normal.
Benefit: You must expend your psionic focus to use this feat. Add +1 to the difficulty class for all saving throws and +1 to your manifester level checks to overcome power resistance for all powers manifested from your chosen discipline.
Special: This feat can be chosen multiple times and will stack with itself, though each time it is taken you have the option of applying its effects to a different psionic discipline.

FOCUSED SUNDER [Psionic, Fighter]
You can sense the stress points on others’ weapons.
Prerequisite: Str 13, Power Attack, Improved Sunder
Benefit: To use this feat, you must expend your psionic focus. When you strike at an opponent’s weapon, you ignore half of the weapon’s total hardness (round down). Total hardness includes any magical or psionic enhancements possessed by the weapon that increase its hardness.
Special: You can also sense the stress points in any hard construction, such as wooden doors or stone walls, and can ignore half of the object’s total hardness (round down) when attacking that object.

FOLLOW UP [General, Fighter]
You can push through enemy lines to create a breach.
Prerequisite: Base attack bonus +6
Benefit: When using the Full Attack action, if you deal a creature enough damage to make it drop (typically by dropping it to below 0 hit points or killing it), you may immediately move into the space they occupied if within 5’. This move does not provoke an attack of opportunity. There is no fixed limit to the number of times in a round this feat may be used, although you may not move further than your current movement rate in one round using this feat.
Special: You may not use this feat if you cannot fit into your opponent’s space because of other opponents or obstacles. When using this feat in conjunction with Cleave or a feat based on Cleave, you must take your bonus attacks from those feats before you move using Follow Up.

FORCE OF WILL [General]
You are able to resist psionic attacks with extreme force of will.
Prerequisite: Iron Will
Benefit: Once per round, when targeted by a psionic effect that allows a Reflex save or a Fortitude save, you can instead make a Will saving throw to avoid the effect. The benefit of this feat applies only to psionic powers and psi-like abilities. This is an exception to the psionics–magic transparency rule.
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).
FORCE OF WILL Copyright 2000, System Reference Document
Comments: The Netbook of Feats team is not generally in favor of feats such as these that break the magic-psionics transparency rule.

FORCE SPELL [Metamagic]
You can infuse your damaging arcane spells with force.
Benefit: Half of the damage inflicted by an arcane spell modified by this feat has the force descriptor, enabling it to affect incorporeal creatures and making it resistant to protection from elements and similar magic. The other half of the damage is treated normally as per the spell. A force spell uses up a spell slot two levels higher than the spell's actual level.

FORCE STOP [Modern]
You can stop another vehicle during a sideswipe.
Prerequisite: Drive 4 ranks, Vehicle Expert
Benefit: When you attempt a sideswipe stunt with a surface vehicle, you can force the other vehicle to a stop by nudging it into a controlled side¬ways skid. In addition to the nor¬mal requirements for attempting a sideswipe stunt, you must have sufficient movement re¬maining to move a number of squares equal to your turn number. After succeeding on the check to attempt the sideswipe, you make a Drive check opposed by the other driver. If you succeeds, turn the other vehicle 90 degrees across the front of your, so that they form a tee. Move them forward a distance equal to your turn number. The vehicles end their movement at that location, at stationary speed, and take their normal sideswipe damage. If you fail the check, resolve the sideswipe normally.

FORGE EPIC RING [Epic, Item Creation]
You can create epic level rings.
Prerequisite: Forge Ring, Knowledge (arcana) 35 ranks, Spellcraft 35 ranks
Benefit: You can forge magic rings that exceed the normal limits for such items.

FORGE RING [Item Creation]
You can create magical rings.
Prerequisite: Caster level 12th
Benefit: You can create any ring whose prerequisites you meet. Crafting a ring takes one day for each 1,000 gp in its base price. To craft a ring, you must spend 1/25 of its base price in XP and use up raw materials costing one-half of its base price. You can also mend a broken ring if it is one that you could make. Doing so costs half the XP, half the raw materials, and half the time it would take to forge that ring in the first place. Some magic rings incur extra costs in material components or XP, as noted in their descriptions. You must pay such a cost to forge such a ring or to mend a broken one.

FORTUNE [General]
You have unusually good luck
Benefit: You gain the power of good fortune, which is usable once per day. This extraordinary ability allows you to reroll one roll that you have just made. You must take the result of the reroll, even if it’s worse than the original roll.

FOUL SNEAKING [Stealth]
You can sneak attack stymied creatures.
Prerequisite: Sneak Attack 1d6

FRACTURE [General, Fighter]
You are skilled at exploiting weaknesses in objects.
Prerequisite: Improved Sunder, Power Attack, Base attack bonus +2
Benefit: When attacking an object with hardness greater than or equal to that of your weapon, you gain +2 circumstance bonus to damage. When you are attacking an object with hardness less than that of your weapon, you gain a +5 circumstance bonus to damage.

FRENZIED ATTACK [General, Fighter]
You may attack your foe with wild abandon, allowing you to rain many inaccurate blows upon them.
Prerequisite: Str 13, Power Attack, Base attack bonus +6
Benefit: When you make a full attack action with a melee weapon, you may take an additional attack at your highest base attack bonus. However, this additional attack and all others suffer a -4 penalty this round.

FROM THE JAWS OF DEFEAT [General]
Your worst breaks often turn into lucky breaks.
Prerequisite: Charmed, Fortune
Benefit: Once per day when you roll a natural 1 (the d20 comes up 1) on a skill check, saving throw, or characteristic check, you may change it into a natural 20.
Special: You may take this feat multiple times. Each extra time provides an additional use per day.
Notes: Both of the listed prerequisites are elsewhere in the Netbook of Feats.

FURY OF THE MOUNTAIN [General]
You can strain yourself to the breaking point for extra power in your attacks.
Prerequisite: Str 15, Con 15, Great Fortitude, Iron Will, Toughness, Improved Toughness, Base attack bonus +11
Benefit: Before making an attack roll, you may sacrifice a number of hit points up to your Constitution bonus. For every full two hit points you sacrifice, you deal an additional 1d6 points weapon damage to your opponent if you hit with the attack. If for any reason you don’t lose the hit points you do not gain the benefits of this feat.

GARGANTUAN WILD SHAPE [Epic, Wild]
You can wild shape into a gargantuan animal.
Prerequisite: Ability to wild shape into a Huge animal
Benefit: You can use your wild shape to take the shape of a Gargantuan animal.
Normal: Without this feat, a character cannot wild shape into an animal greater than Huge size.

Benefit: You get a +2 bonus on all Computer Use and Repair checks.
Special: Remember that the Computer Use skill and the Repair skill can only be used untrained in certain situations.

GEOMETRIC WALL [Metamagic]
You can shape your wall spells making rings, hemispheres, or spheres.
Benefit: You can choose to alter the wall shape differently as shown below. A spell without "Effect: Wall" in its description or "wall" in its name is not affected by this feat. A wall that can already be adjusted into a particular shape uses this feat's dimensions or the spell description's dimensions, whichever you desire. Creatures must stand on one inner edge of a sphere-shaped wall and thus suffer the effects (if any) of the wall each round they are encapsulated. A Geometric Wall spell uses up a spell slot two levels higher than the spell's actual level.
Normal: You can only shape a wall spell if it has the Shapeable designation at the end of its Area or Effect entry. In addition, a wall's spell description must specifically mention allowable shapes (ring, hemisphere, or sphere).

GHOST ATTACK [Psionic, Fighter]
Your deadly strikes against incorporeal foes always find their mark.
Prerequisite: Base attack bonus +3
Benefit: You must be psionically focused to use this feat. When you make a melee attack or a ranged attack against an incorporeal creature, you can make two rolls to check for the miss chance. If either is successful, the attack is treated as if it were made with a ghost touch weapon for the purpose of affecting the creature. Your weapon or natural weapon actually appears to become briefly incorporeal as the attack is made.

GHOST SPELL [Metamagic]
You can cast spells that are especially effective against incorporeal opponents.
Benefit: Any spell with a damage descriptor prepared as a ghost spell is fully effective against corporeal and incorporeal opponents. An incorporeal creature struck by a ghost spell suffers the normal damage inflicted by the spell and does not have a 50% change to ignore this damage. A ghost spell uses up a spell slot one level higher that the spell’s normal level.
Normal: Incorporeal creatures have a 50% chance to ignore spells cast from a corporeal source unless the spell has a force effect.

GHOST TOUCH [Special]
By channeling your ki you can effectively strike incorporeal opponents.
Prerequisite: Wis 13, Ki Strike class ability
Benefit: You can make unarmed attacks against incorporeal opponents as if you had the ghost touch power, negating an incorporeal creature's ability to ignore 50% of successful attacks from a corporeal source. Like Ki Strike, Ghost Touch is a supernatural ability.

GIANT STEP [Monster]
Your long legs allow you to take longer steps.
Prerequisite: Natural reach of 10 ft or longer
Benefit: What is normally a 5 ft. step is longer for you. Whenever you could normally take a 5 ft. step, you may instead move a distance equal to your natural reach, without provoking attacks of opportunity. You still cannot move through the squares of other creatures, unless the size difference is great enough to allow you to occupy the same space. Nor can you move farther than your speed in this way.

GIVEAWAY SPELL [Metamagic]
You give away control over a spell.
Benefit: You transfer the control of a spell to another willing creature that you touch at the time of casting, such as levitate or flaming sphere. This does not work on spells with a personal range, or an emanation area, or an instantaneous duration. It also does not alter spells whose initial effects are fixed, but whose durations last some time - for example, when you cast charm person it may last days, but when you cast the spell the victim will always view the caster as their friend (if they fail the saving throw). In all other ways the spell functions as normal; the save DC and level-dependent functions are based upon your the caster's abilities. You still make all the decisions inherent in casting the spell, such as what the initial target is, but if the effect can be moved (for example flaming sphere), the creature in control decides how. If the spell requires concentration to maintain, the creature you transfer it to must maintain this concentration, and they can opt to end a dismissable spell at their whim. A Giveaway Spell uses up a spell slot one level higher than the spell's actual level.
Special: A creature must have an Intelligence score of at least 1 to receive control of a Giveaway Spell; if you try to transfer control to a non-intelligent creature then the spell will instantly dissipate and be wasted.

GO HUNGRY [General]
You are able to go without food and water for six days before suffering any ill effects.
Benefit: You are able to ignore the effects of hunger and thirst for up to six days without suffering any ill effects. After six days you must eat and drink normally for at least three days before fasting again.

Prerequisite: Cha 25, Smite ability (from class feature or domain granted power)

Prerequisite: Crippling Strike, Improved Crippling Strike, Sneak Attack 8d6
Benefit: An opponent damaged by one of her sneak attacks also takes 2 points of Constitution damage. This stacks with the benefit from Crippling Strike and Improved Crippling Strike.

GREATER DISEASE RESISTANCE [General]
You are even more resistant to disease.

Prerequisite: Innate supernatural or spell-like ability, Focused Primeval Ability
Benefit: Choose one innate supernatural or spell-like ability that you have augmented with the Focused Primeval Ability feat. Add +2to the Difficulty Class for all saving throws made to resist this ability. This bonus supercedes (i.e. does not stack with) the bonus provided by the Focused Spell-Like Ability feat.
Special: The creature can take this feat multiple times but its benefits do not stack. Each time that it is taken the creature must apply it to another of its innate supernatural or spell-like abilities that has been augmented with the Focused Primeval Ability feat. This feat cannot be used with class based spell-like abilities, like the druid's wild shape or paladin's ability to cure disease.

GREATER HEART OF THE DRAGON [Rage]
The blinding intensity of your rage may completely protect you from harm.
Prerequisite: Heart Of The Dragon, Rage 2/day, Base attack bonus +9
Benefit: When raging, you may substitute a Fortitude save for a Reflex save for any damage from a spell-like ability or supernatural ability that normally allows a Reflex save for half damage. If you succeed in the save, you take no damage.

GREATER HELD CHARGE [Metamagic]
You have mastered your body’s ability to hold a magical charge.
Prerequisite: Con 13
Benefit: You can hold a charged touch spell and still cast another spell, although the charge may not be released in the same round as the new spell has been cast. The number of times this feat can be used while a specific touch spell is charged is equal to the caster’s Constitution modifier. Once you have cast that many additional spells, if you cast another, the charged touch spell dissipates as normal. Spells cast using this feat take up a spell slot one level higher.
Normal: If you are holding a spell charge for a touch attack and cast another spell, the spell charge for the touch spell dissipates.
Notes: Casting another touch spell will override this feat. You are only considered “armed” when you attempt to use the touch attack itself, otherwise, you will draw an attack of opportunity as per normal when casting another spell. If you fail a concentration check while using this feat, the charged touch spell will also dissipate.

GREATER KNOWLEDGE [General, Role Play]
You absorb knowledge well and know how to find obscure information.
Prerequisite: Int 15
Benefit: When making a trained knowledge skill check any roll less than 10 is treated as if it were 10. In addition you are aware of where you can find out any fact which you could know if you failed a trained knowledge check by 10 or less. The actual source is at the discretion of the DM and may well be quite inaccessible or unwilling to divulge the information.
Normal: You may not take a 10 or 20 on knowledge checks.

GREATER MANYSHOT [General, Fighter]
You are skilled at firing many arrows at once, even at different opponents.
Prerequisite: Dex 17, Manyshot, Point Blank Shot, Rapid Shot, Base attack bonus +6
Benefit: When you use the Manyshot feat, you can fire each arrow at a different target instead of firing all of them at the same target. You make a separate attack roll for each arrow, regardless of whether you fire them at separate targets or the same target. Your precision-based damage applies to each arrow fired, and, if you score a critical hit with more than one of the arrows, each critical hit deals critical damage.
Special: A fighter may select this feat as one of his fighter bonus feats.

You can get an additional attack with an offhand weapon.
Prerequisite: Dex 19, Three arms, Improved Multiweapon Fighting, Multiweapon Fighting, Base attack bonus +15

You can overrun multiple targets.
Benefit: When using the Overrun combat maneuver, you may overrun any number of opponents in your movement path so long as you move in a straight path. In addition you may move twice your current movement rate while Overrunning by making the Overrun combat maneuver a full round action instead of a standard action. If you fail a strength check at any point, the maneuver ends as normal.

GREATER POISON RESISTANCE [General]
You are even more resistant to poison.

GREATER POWER SPECIALIZATION [Psionic, Fighter]
You deal more damage with your powers.
Prerequisite: Power Specialization, Weapon Focus (ray), Manifester level 12th
Benefit: Your powers that deal damage deal an extra 2 points of damage. This damage stacks with other bonuses on damage rolls to powers, including the one from Power Specialization. The damage bonus applies only if the target or targets are within 30 feet.

GREATER PRIMEVAL RAGE [Rage]
You are incredibly vicious, ferocious and dangerous.
Prerequisite: Primeval Rage or Rage ability, Base attack bonus +12
Benefit: When enraged, you gain a temporary +6 bonus to Str, +6 bonus to Con and +3 morale bonus to Will saves, while still suffering the standard -2 AC penalty. You cannot end your rage voluntarily.
Special: This feat does not stack with the Greater Rage class ability (it is superceded by it).

GREATER PSIONIC ENDOWMENT [Metapsionic]
You can use meditation to focus your powers.
Prerequisite: Psionic Endowment

GREATER SPELL MASTERY [Special]
You can cast some of the spells previously mastered with Spell Mastery without preparation.
Prerequisite: Spell Mastery
Benefit: Choose a number of spells equal to your charisma modifier that you have previously mastered with Spell Mastery. You can now cast these spells at their normal level without preparation, exactly like a sorcerer. This allows you to prepare a full set of spells, yet still cast any spell selected by this feat by exchanging the spell energy of one of your prepared spells of equal or higher level.
Normal: Wizards must normally prepare spells in order to cast them.
Example: Hhune is a 10th level wizard with Int 16 (+3) and Cha 13 (+1). He has previously selected the Spell Mastery feat, selecting three spells based on his Int modifier (dimension door, magic missile and lightning bolt). He next selects the Greater Spell Mastery feat, choosing one spell based on his Cha modifier that he has previously learned with Spell Mastery (magic missile). He no longer needs to prepare magic missile and can now prepare his normal allotment of first level spells per day (5 total, 4 plus 1 for Int 16). Whenever he decides to cast magic missile, he can cast this spell in place of one of his prepared 1st-level spells, casting up to a maximum of 5 magic missile or first level spells per day in any combination. He could also choose to cast magic missile by trading in one of his higher level prepared spells in a similar manner.

GREATER TWO-WEAPON FIGHTING [General, Fighter]
You get a third attack with an off-hand weapon.
Prerequisite: Dex 19, Improved Two-weapon Fighting, Two-weapon Fighting, Base attack bonus +11
Benefit: You get a third attack with your off-hand weapon, albeit at a –10 penalty.
Special: A fighter may select Greater Two-Weapon Fighting as one of his fighter bonus feats. An 11th-level ranger who has chosen the two-weapon combat style is treated as having Greater Two-Weapon Fighting, even if he does not have the prerequisites for it, but only when he is wearing light or no armor.

GREATER WEAPON FOCUS [Special, Fighter]
Choose one type of weapon for which you have already selected Weapon Focus. You can also choose unarmed strike or grapple as your weapon for purposes of this feat.
Prerequisite: Proficiency With Selected Weapon, Weapon Focus With Selected Weapon, Fighter level 8th
Benefit: You gain a +1 bonus on all attack rolls you make using the selected weapon. This bonus stacks with other bonuses on attack rolls, including the one from Weapon Focus (see below).
Special: You can gain Greater Weapon Focus multiple times. Its effects do not stack. Each time you take the feat, it applies to a new type of weapon. A fighter must have Greater Weapon Focus with a given weapon to gain the Greater Weapon Specialization feat for that weapon. A fighter may select Greater Weapon Focus as one of his fighter bonus feats.

Special: You can gain Greater Weapon Specialization multiple times. Its effects do not stack. Each time you take the feat, it applies to a new type of weapon. A fighter may select Greater Weapon Specialization as one of his fighter bonus feats.

GREATWEAPON QUICKNESS [General, Fighter]
Your mastery of this style reflects strengthened wrist muscles and honed reflexes, allowing blindingly fast strikes with the largest of weapons.
Prerequisite: Str 13, Base attack bonus +4
Benefit: When you wield a weapon that requires two hands to be used with proficiency (e.g. a greatsword), you receive a +4 circumstance bonus to your initiative. This bonus only applies whilst you wield a two-handed weapon; if you perform some other action (switching to a non-two-handed weapon, drinking a potion, etc.), use your unmodified initiative.

GRIM DETERMINATION [General]
Adversity only increases your determination.
Prerequisite: Toughness, Iron Will
Benefit: When you are reduced to ½ your full hit points or less you gain a +1 morale bonus to attack rolls, a +1 morale bonus to skill checks, and a +2 morale bonus to damage rolls.

GRUDGE [General, Role Play]
You have a grudge against a group or organization and won’t rest until they are all dead.
Benefit: Choose a social group or organization, with the DM’s permission. You gain a +2 bonus on Bluff, Listen, Sense Motive, Spot, and Survival checks when using these skills against members of the group. Likewise, you get a +2 bonus on weapon damage rolls against members of the chosen group.
Special: You may take this feat multiple times. Each time, it applies to a different group.
Example: Boris Badaxe’s sister was killed by the crimson guard and he has sworn bloody vengeance. Whenever facing the crimson guard in battle he gains the benefits of Grudge.
Notes: This is not meant as a way for other characters to get the Ranger Favored enemy ability, although the mechanic is nearly identical. It can not be used as a prerequisite to any feat or class requiring Favored Enemy. The intent was more of a passionate vendetta against people that have done you wrong, as opposed to a ranger’s deep knowledge of their prey.

GUIDE [Modern]
You rarely ever get lost.
Benefit: You get a +2 bonus on all Navigate checks Survival checks.

HANDY [General]
You don’t depend on book-smarts when fixing things, making things, or dismantling things.
Benefit: You may use your Dexterity modifier in place of your Intelligence modifier on Craft, Disable Device and Forgery checks.

HARDENED SPELL [Magical]
Your spells become highly resistant to disruption.
Prerequisite: Spell Focus
Benefit: Spells that you cast from the school of magic you have Spell Focus in become very hard to counterspell and disrupt. If the same spell or an opposed-effect spell is used as a counterspell to your Hardened Spell, the counterspell is ineffective (including spells used with the Improved Counterspell feat). If Dispel Magic or a similar spell or effect is used as a counterspell, the DC for the dispel check required is increased by +4. You also gain a +2 bonus to any Concentration checks you make in order to cast or maintain the Hardened Spell.
Special: You may take this feat multiple times. Each time that you take this feat it applies to a different school of magic that you have Spell Focus in.

HARDY BRAWLER [General]
You really know how to take a punch
Prerequisite: Toughness
Benefit: You gain a nonlethal-based damage reduction equal to your constitution modifier. This only applies to nonlethal damage.
Special: This feat cannot be used against magical weapons or attacks.
Example: If you have a constitution modifier of +3, you can subtract the first three points of nonlethal damage from each nonlethal attack. If a punch only did 2 points of nonlethal damage, you would take no damage from the strike. If a punch did 5 points of nonlethal damage, you would only suffer 2 of those 5 points.

HEALING KI TOUCH [Special]
You can heal others just like you can heal yourself.
Prerequisite: Monk level 9
Benefit: You can use your Wholeness of Body class ability to heal others by touch, in a manner exactly like you can heal yourself.

HEART OF DEFIANCE [Rage]

Prerequisite: Rage 1/day, Base attack bonus +3
Benefit: When enraged you are immune to all forms of fear and all mind-affecting spells and spell-like abilities.

HEART OF FURY [Rage]
Your all-consuming fury enables you to continue to fight even when near death.
Prerequisite: Rage 2/day, Base attack bonus +3
Benefit: When enraged, you can continue to act fully when disabled (at 0 hit points) or dying (at -1 to -9 hit points). You do not fall unconscious when reduced to negative hit points and you can take a full action even when at zero or fewer hit points. Taking a full action when at zero or fewer hit points automatically inflicts 1 hit point of damage per round with no chance of stabilization unless healed or treated. You still die when reduced to -10 hit points or less or when the automatic damage is applied and your Constitution is lowered after your Rage ends.
Normal: You can only take a single move or standard action when disabled and are unconscious when dying.

HEART OF INVULNERABILITY [Rage]
Your raging heart protects you from harm.
Prerequisite: Rage 2/day, Base attack bonus +6

The blinding intensity of your rage protects you from harm.
Prerequisite: Rage 2/day, Base attack bonus +6
Benefit: When raging, you may substitute a Fortitude save for a Reflex save for any damage from a spell-like ability or supernatural ability that normally allows a Reflex save for half damage.

HEIGHTEN PRIMEVAL ABILITY [Monster]
The creature has achieved mastery of its innate supernatural or spell-like powers.
Prerequisite: Innate supernatural or spell-like ability
Benefit: Choose one of your supernatural abilities or all of your spell-like abilities. You can use this chosen ability or abilities at +1 level of experience.
Special: This feat cannot be used with class based spell-like abilities, like the druid's wild shape or paladin's ability to cure disease. This feat can be chosen more than once and will stack with itself.

HEIGHTEN SPELL [Metamagic]
Your spells act as though they were a higher level.
Benefit: A heightened spell has a higher spell level than normal (up to a maximum of 9th level). Unlike other metamagic feats, Heighten Spell actually increases the effective level of the spell that it modifies. All effects dependent on spell level (such as saving throw DCs and ability to penetrate a lesser globe of invulnerability) are calculated according to the heightened level. The heightened spell is as difficult to prepare and cast as a spell of its effective level.

HEIGHTENED BODILY CONSTITUTION [General]
Your training has made you extra resilient.
Prerequisite: Con 13
Benefit: You gain a +1 bonus to all Constitution based skill checks.

HEIGHTENED COGNITIVE INTELLIGENCE [General]

Benefit: You gain a +1 bonus to all Wisdom based skill checks.

HEIRLOOM [General]
You have inherited a family heirloom of great value with which to begin your career. Your family expects you to guard this heirloom above all other things, of course, and eventually hand it down to your own child...
Benefit: You begin the game with a single magic or exotic item worth roughly 2000gp. It is up to the GM to assign this item.
Special: You can only take this feat at character creation.
Notes: If a magical item is chosen it should probably be a permanent item instead of a one use or limited charge item.

HERCULEAN EFFORT [General]
You can temporarily perform great acts of strength.
Benefit: You can add +4 to your Strength attribute for purposes of lifting and carrying weight and for figuring your Strength bonus on ability checks for a number of rounds equal to 3 plus your Constitution modifier. After this time you are fatigued (-2 to Strength, -2 to Dexterity, can’t run or charge). Your increased strength does not affect attack or damage rolls, combat maneuvers like Grapple, Bull Rush and Trip, and does not increase your strength bonus on skill checks.

HEROIC EVASION [General]
When you focus on an effort you may get flashes of insight about the immediate future allowing you to avoid disastrous mistakes.
Prerequisite: Cha 13, Great Fortitude, Iron Will, Lightning Reflexes
Benefit: You may reroll a check or save you just made and apply a insight bonus equal to your charisma modifier. You may do this once per day. You must take the result of the reroll, even if it is worse than the original roll.

HIDE TRACKS [General]
You can conceal signs of passage.
Prerequisite: Track
Benefit: You can conceal the tracks you and your companions make while moving. Add your ranks in Survival to the DC of following your tracks. You can move at full speed while hiding tracks; if you move at half speed, you impose the additional +5 DC modifier on tracking rolls noted in the Track feat.
Normal: Anyone can use the survival skill to remove the traces at a campsite or the search skill to hide clues at a location.

HINDERING SONG [Epic, Song]
Your music can disrupt spell casting.
Prerequisite: Deafening Song, Perform 27 ranks, Bardic music class feature
Benefit: You can use song or poetics to hinder enemy spellcasters within a 30-foot spread from you. To successfully cast a spell within this area, a spellcaster must make a Concentration check as if he or she were casting defensively, and all such checks have a penalty equal to half your level. You can choose to exclude any characters from this effect. You may sing, play, or recite a hindering song while taking other mundane actions, but not magical ones (see the bard’s inspire courage ability for more details). You may keep up the hindering song for a maximum of 10 rounds. Using the hindering song counts as one of your uses of song or poetics for the day.

HOBBLING ATTACK [General, Fighter]
Your attacks can slow down an opponent.
Prerequisite: Int 13, Base attack bonus +4
Benefit: Once per round you may declare a standard attack to be a hobbling attack. You suffer a -4 to hit penalty on your attack roll but if you deal any damage the target must make a Fortitude Save (DC 10 + ½ damage dealt) or their speed is reduced by one-half. This movement penalty lasts for 24 hours, or until the creature is successfully treated with a DC 15 Heal check, or until it receives at least 1 point of magical curing. Multiple Hobbling Attacks are not cumulative in effect.
Special: This feat is ineffective against creatures that are not subject to critical hits (e.g. constructs, elementals, oozes, plants, undead, and characters whose armor fortification successfully activated). It also does not affect creatures with a supernatural means of locomotion (levitation or the like). If a creature has multiple modes of movement you must select which type of movement you are reducing.

HOLD THE LINE [General, Fighter]
You can attack charging opponents.
Prerequisite: Combat Reflexes, Base attack bonus +2
Benefit: You may make an attack of opportunity against a charging opponent who enters an area you threaten. Your attack of opportunity happens immediately before the charge attack is resolved.
Normal: You only get an attack of opportunity against a character that exits a square you threaten.

HOLE IN THE MIDDLE [Metamagic]
You can create a hole in an area spell to avoid being affected
Benefit: When you cast an area spell in such a way that you are in the area affected, you can create a hole in the area around yourself to avoid being affected by your own spell. Any creatures occupying your square(s) (for example grappling you or being small enough to fit between your feet or on your shoulder) are also unaffected. A Hole in the Middle Spell uses up a spell slot one level higher than the spell's actual level.

HOLY STRIKE [Epic, Special]
Any weapon in your hands is a holy weapon.
Prerequisite: Smite evil class feature, Any good alignment
Benefit: Any weapon you wields is treated as a holy weapon (is good-aligned and deals an extra 2d6 points of damage against creatures of evil alignment).If the weapon already has an alignment, this feat has no effect on the weapon.

HOSTILE MIND [General]
Your mind recoils violently against those who use psionics against you.
Prerequisite: Cha 15
Benefit: Whenever you are subject to a power from the telepathy discipline (regardless of whether the power is harmful or beneficial to you), the manifester must make a Will saving throw against a DC of 10 + 1/2 your character level + your Charisma bonus or take 2d6 points of damage. The benefit of this feat applies only to psionic powers and psi-like abilities. This is an exception to the psionics–magic transparency rule.
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).
HOSTILE MIND Copyright 2000, System Reference Document
Comments: The Netbook of Feats team is not generally in favor of feats such as these that break the magic-psionics transparency rule.

HOVER [Monster, Special]
You can hover in place while flying.
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 concealment (50% miss chance, and opponents cannot use sight to locate the creature). Those caught in the cloud must succeed on a Concentration check (DC 10 + 1/2 creature’s HD) to cast a spell.
Normal: Without this feat, a creature must keep moving while flying unless it has perfect maneuverability.

IDENTIFY ITEM [General]
You can identify magic items without the use of magic.
Prerequisite: Appraise 8 ranks, Spellcraft 8 ranks, Use Magic Device 8 ranks, Learn Command
Benefit: By making a detailed study of a magic item for 6 hours and a successful Use Magic Device check (DC25) you can duplicate the effects of the identify spell.

IGNORE MATERIAL COMPONENTS [Epic, Magical]
You never need material components for your spells.
Prerequisite: Eschew Materials, Spellcraft 25 ranks, Ability to cast 9th-level arcane or divine spells
Benefit: You may cast spells without any material components. This feat does not affect the need for a focus or divine focus.

IMMEDIATE DODGE [General, Fighter]
You may spontaneously elect to dodge incoming attacks that you are aware of.
Prerequisite: Dodge, Dex 13+
Benefit: As an immediate action, you can elect to give up your next turn to perform the total defense combat action, thus gaining the appropriate dodge bonus to your armor class against incoming attacks (+4 dodge bonus, or +6 dodge bonus if you have five ranks or more of Tumble). You must be able to apply your Dexterity bonus to AC against the attack, and you must declare this immediate action before the attacker makes their attack roll. Your initiative does not change; you simply do not take an action on your next turn. You gain this dodge bonus until the next time your initiative comes up after your "skipped" turn.
Special: You may apply any benefits of feats or special abilities that improve your dodge bonus to your AC when you activate this ability that you could normally apply to a total defense combat action made on your turn.
Notes: You can’t make attacks of opportunity while using the total defense combat action. An immediate action can be taken at any point, even when it's not your turn.

IMPACT SPELL [Magical]
You can increase the maximum damage of heightened spells.
Prerequisite: Arcane spellcaster, Heighten Spell
Benefit: If you prepare a damage causing arcane spell with a higher than normal level using the Heighten Spell metamagic feat, the maximum number of damage dice may be increased. If the spell causes damage to one creature, or must be split amongst multiple creatures (e.g. Shocking Grasp), the revised maximum dice allowed is given in the second column (Single). If the spell causes damage to any creatures that fall within its area of effect (e.g. Fireball), refer to the third column (Multiple) for the revised maximum dice allowed. This feat does not affect spells similar to Magic Missile, as in this case it is the number of missiles that has a level-based maximum, rather than the damage per missile.
New Level
Max # of Damage Dice for
a Single Creature Affected Multiple Creatures Affected
1st 5 5
2nd 10 5
3rd 10 10
4th 15 10
5th 15 15
6th 20 15
7th 20 20
8th 25 20
9th 25 25


Notes: Looking at the spell lists, few divine spells are flashy, damage causing spells. In addition, these spells are generally alignment related. For this reason, this feat did not seem appropriate or have the right flavor for divine spellcasters. If deities could grant more damage against infidels with a particular spell, they already would. This is the reason for their omission. GMs may, of course, opt to allow this feat for clerics or all divine spellcasters.

IMPRINT STONE [Item Creation, Psionic]
You can create power stones to store psionic powers.
Prerequisite: Manifester level 1st
Benefit: You can create a power stone of any power that you know. Encoding a power stone takes one day for each 1,000 gp in its base price. The base price of a power stone is the level of the stored power x its manifester level x 25 gp. To imprint a power stone, you must spend 1/25 of this base price in XP and use up raw materials costing one-half of this base price. Any power stone that stores a power with an XP cost also carries a commensurate cost. In addition to the costs derived from the base price, you must pay the XP when encoding the stone.

IMPROVED AID ANOTHER [General]
You are especially adept at helping others.
Benefit: When using the Aid Another action you grant whomever you are aiding a +4 bonus instead of a +2 bonus.

IMPROVED ALIGNMENT-BASED CASTING [Epic, Magical]

Prerequisite: Access to domain of Chaos, Evil, Good, Or Law, Alignment must match domain chosen, Ability to cast 9th-level divine spells
Benefit: Select an alignment-based domain (Chaos, Evil, Good, or Law) to which you have access. You cast spells with that alignment descriptor at +3 caster level.
Special: This benefit overrides (does not stack with) the granted powers of the Chaos, Evil, Good, and Law domains. A character may select this feat multiple times. Its effects do not stack. Each time a character takes the feat, it applies to a different alignment-based domain to which the character has access.

IMPROVED ANIMAL COMPANION [Special]
Your animal companion is more powerful than normal.
Prerequisite: Animal Companion ability
Benefit: Your effective level for the Animal Companion ability is three levels higher than normal. As noted in the SRD this improves the abilities of your existing animal companion, or alternatively allows you to attract a more powerful one.
Special: You may select this feat multiple times. It stacks with itself.

Your arrows of death are just that much more deadly.
Prerequisite: Dex 19, Wis 19, Point Blank Shot, Precise Shot, Arrow of death class feature

The list in the table above presents only a few possible improved familiars. Almost any creature of the same general size and power as those on the list makes a suitable familiar.

Special: You can gain this feat multiple times. The effects stack, though you can’t lower the cost of any metapsionic power to less than 1 power point.

Comments: The 21st level prerequisite is useless as all epic feats have this prerequisite. The wording of this feat is incorrect if the spirit of the feat should be the same as Improved Metamagic; theoretically if you used a 2nd level power (3 pp) with a metapsionic feat that did not increase the power cost (eg something that changed an energy type from fire to cold) this feat would allow you to manifest that power for only 1 pp. The benefit should be altered to “Metapsionic powers you manifest cost 2 power points less than normal (to a minimum of +2 power points). This feat has no effect on metapsionic powers that inflate the cost by under 2 power points.”, and similarly change “1 power point” to “2 power points” in Special.

You strike multiple times at everyone around you.
Prerequisite: Int 13, Dex 23, Combat Expertise, Dodge, Mobility, Spring Attack, Whirlwind Attack
Benefit: As a standard action, you can make one melee attack for every five points of your base attack bonus (including epic attack bonus, round fractions down).

When using the Improved Whirlwind feat, your also forfeit any bonus or extra attacks granted by other spells or abilities (such as Cleave or the haste spell). Since these attacks are made as part of a standard action your can’t make a 5-foot step between any two of the attacks.

IMPROVED WILD TALENT [Psionic]
Allows you to use a single Psionic power.
Prerequisite: Wis 13, Wild Talent
Benefit: Grants you access to a single 1st level Psionic power chosen from the Psion or Psychic warrior lists. Where manifester level is a factor (such as for determining range), use the character's manifester level or one, whichever is higher.

The rage of affected allies lasts a number of rounds equal to 3 + their Constitution modifier, regardless of whether they remain within 60 feet of you. This is otherwise identical with normal barbarian rage (including the fatigue at its end).
Special: This is a mind-affecting effect.

INFER SPELL [Special, Magical]
You can learn spells from magic items.
Prerequisite: Spellbook
Benefit: You can learn spells from magic items. You must study the item for one day per level of the spell you are attempting to learn. The item must be able to produce an effect identical to the spell you are learning. After the period of study you must make a spellcraft check identical to copying a spell from another spell book (DC 15+ the level of the spell). If you fail you are subject to the same limitations as when failing to copy a spell from a spellbook. The spell must be one you are normally permitted to learn.

The creature can use its spellcasting knowledge to modify its innate spell-like abilities with learned metamagic feats.
Prerequisite: Int 11, Innate spell-like ability, Ability to cast spells, One or more metamagic feats
Benefit: The creature can modify any of its innate spell-like abilities with any spell altering metamagic feat that it knows. In order to alter a spell-like ability in this manner, the creature must prepare (Wizards or Divine spellcasters) or spend (Sorcerer or Bard) a spell slot equal in level to the bonus level required for the metamagic feat in question (see examples below). Casting a metamagically enhanced spell-like ability also counts as one or its uses of that spell-like ability per day. Spontaneously casting a metamagically enhanced spell-like ability, like a Sorcerer or Bard, requires a full-round action (rather than a standard action).
Normal: Creatures cannot normally modify spell-like abilities with spell altering metamagic feats.
Special: This feat does not provide knowledge of any other metamagic feat and it cannot be used with class based spell-like abilities, like the druid's wild shape or paladin's ability to cure disease. Because spell-like abilities are cast without need of verbal, somatic or material components, modifying a spell-like ability with Silent Spell or Still Spell provides no additional game related benefit.

INNATE SPECIALIST [Special]
You have a remarkable affinity for a school of magic, similar to a specialist wizard.
Prerequisite: Ability to cast arcane spells without preparation (like a bard or sorcerer)
Benefit: Choose one school of magic (and its associated prohibited schools), per the wizard's school specialization rules. You can learn one additional spell per spell level that you can cast as long as this additional spell is from your specialty school. You do not gain the ability to cast more spells per day nor do you gain a bonus on Spellcraft checks when dealing with your specialty school. Spells from your chosen prohibited school(s) cannot be cast and are removed from your spell list. If you cast spells from a limited spell list (like a bard), you cannot choose Evocation or Necromancy as prohibited schools.
Normal: Bards and Sorcerers cannot normally choose to specialize in a school of magic.
Special: This feat can be taken more than once, but each time it must apply to a different spontaneous spellcaster class.

INNER DEPTHS OF THE SOUL [Magical]
You have tapped an inner reserve of power that allows you to reduce magic-related XP costs.
Prerequisite: Int 13, Wis 13, Cha 13
Benefit: Any time you cast a spell with an XP cost, manifest a power with an XP cost or create a magic item, the XP cost is reduced by 10%. Fractional XP costs are rounded up to the nearest whole number.
Special: A character may gain this feat multiple times. Each time you take this feat beyond the first, the ability score requirements each increase by 2 and the XP cost discount is increased by 5%, to a maximum of a 95% reduction.
Example: At 6th level Garmand took Inner Depths Of The Soul as his feat. He met the prerequisites of 13 or higher in Intelligence, Wisdom and Charisma. The XP cost discount is 10%. At 9th level, he took this feat again as he was able to meet the increased prerequisites of 15 or higher in Intelligence, Wisdom and Charisma, giving him a total discount of 15% to XP costs.

INQUISITOR [Psionic]
You know when others lie.
Prerequisite: Wis 13
Benefit: To use this feat, you must expend your psionic focus. You gain a +10 bonus on a Sense Motive check to oppose a Bluff check.

Prerequisite: Bardic music class feature, Perform 3 ranks
Benefit: You gain a +2 bonus to all Charisma based attribute and skill checks made against anyone that has heard you sing or perform for a full round, except for people that begin the encounter hostile towards you.

Prerequisite: Cha 17, Leadership, Inspire Loyalty, Inspire Greatness
Benefit: Your followers and cohorts gain the benefits from Inspire Loyalty and Inspire Greatness at all times while you are alive and need not be within 60’ of you.

INSPIRE EXCELLENCE [Epic, Song]
Your music can increase allies ability scroes.
Prerequisite: Perform 30 ranks, Bardic music class feature
Benefit: You can use song or poetics to grant a bonus to one ability score to your allies. To be affected, an ally must hear the bard sing for 1 full round. The effect lasts as long as you sing and for 5 rounds after you stop singing (or 5 rounds after the ally can no longer hear you). While singing, the bard can fight but cannot cast spells, activate magic items by spell completion (such as scrolls), or activate magic items by command word (such as wands). Each ally to be inspired gains a +4 competence bonus to the same ability score, which you must choose before you begins inspiring. Inspire excellence is a supernatural, mind-affecting ability. Use of this feat counts as one of your bardic music uses for the day.
Special: This feat is treated as a bardic music inspiration ability for purposes of feats that affect such abilities.

INSPIRE GREATNESS [General]
Your followers fight harder when you are near.
Prerequisite: Cha 15, Leadership, Inspire Loyalty

These bonuses remain in effect for up to one minute if you are dropped in combat.

INSPIRING LOVE [General, Role Play]
Your love bolsters your efficacy when doing something for your beloved.
Benefit: You must select another person to be your beloved when you take this feat. This is usually a lover, but can be a child or even just a very close friend. Every time you do something specifically for your beloved's benefit, like going on a quest or fighting a duel for your love, you gain a +1 morale bonus to attack rolls and skill checks. This does not include things you merely do together – you have to be doing this for the sake of your love. Loving an adventuring companion will not give you a bonus on all your adventures however. If your beloved has acknowledged your love, and given you an appropriate token (handkerchief, lock of hair, etc.), this bonus increases to +2, as long as you wear this token over your heart.
Special: You must be true to your love for this feat being effective; meaning you must think about your love every day, risk your safety for love, etc. Should the object of your love die, you might still gain these benefits when exacting revenge or building a monument to them or the like.

INSTANT AWAKENING [General]
You can instantly awaken from sleep at the slightest sign of danger.
Benefit: When subject to an attack while asleep, you may make an immediate Reflex save (DC 15) to awaken and defend yourself normally. On a successful save you are not considered helpless or surprised, so you are not vulnerable to a coup de grace, and you may take a standard action in the surprise round (if one occurs); roll for initiative and resolve attacks normally. You may still be considered flat-footed if your initiative is worse than your attacker's.
Normal: A sleeping opponent is flat-footed, helpless (+4 circumstance bonus to strike, treat Dexterity as 0 and apply the -5 modifier to Armor Class) and vulnerable to coup de grace attacks.

INSTANT RELOAD [Epic, Fighter]

Prerequisite: Quick Draw, Rapid Reload, Weapon Focus (crossbow Type To Be Selected)
Benefit: You may fire the selected type of crossbow at your full normal attack rate. Reloading the crossbow does not provoke attacks of opportunity.

INTENSIFY POISON [Stealth]
You know how to intensify the effect of a poison.
Prerequisite: Poison Use ability
Benefit: You can distill two doses of an identical poison into a single dose. This increases the DC to resist the effects of the poison by 2 and takes one hour to complete.

INTENSIFY SPELL [Epic, Metamagic]
You can imbue your spells with legendary power.
Prerequisite: Empower Spell, Maximize Spell, Spellcraft 30 ranks, Ability to cast 9th-level arcane or divine spells
Benefit: All variable, numeric effects of an intensified spell are maximized, then doubled. An intensified spell deals twice maximum damage, cures twice the maximum number of hit points, affects twice the maximum number of targets, and so forth, as appropriate. Saving throws and opposed rolls are not affected. An intensified spell uses up a spell slot seven levels higher than the spell’s actual level. You can’t combine the effects of this feat with any other feat that affects the variable, numeric effects of a spell.
INTENSIFY SPELL Copyright 2000, System Reference Document
Comments: With a level increase of +7 this feat is virtually useless without Improved Spell Capacity as well. Consider that for +5 levels you can combine Empower Spell and Maximize spell to do 150% of maximum damage; this does 200%, so only one third more. Bearing in mind you have to spend an additional epic feat to get this ability it is suggested to have only a +5 level increase for this feat, or no more than +6.

INTIMATE KNOWLEDGE [General, Role Play]
You have thorough knowledge of a specific individual.
Prerequisite: Sense Motive 4 ranks, Knows individual well
Benefit: Chose one specific individual with whom you meet the prerequisites. You gain a +10 to Sense Motivation checks directed at that individual, and a +5 to all Charisma based skill checks directed at that individual. If you have gone over a year without using this feat, you may replace the specified individual with another with whom you meet the prerequisites.
Special: ‘Knows person well’ equates to spending approximately 500 hours observing &/or interacting with specific individual. This works out to around two months of extensive daily interaction or 1 year of more limited but still substantial contact.

INTIMATE SPELL [Metamagic, Role Play]
You can use your knowledge of an individual to enhance your magic.
Prerequisite: Sense Motive 4 ranks, Knows individual well, Intimate Knowledge, Able to cast spells
Benefit: A spell modified by this feat ignores the saving throw, spell resistance, and Abjuration magic of the character with whom you have the Intimate Knowledge feat. An Intimate Spell spell uses a spell slot four levels higher than the spell’s actual level.

INTUITIVE [General]
You use intuition where others use logic.
Benefit: You may use your Wisdom modifier in place of your Intelligence modifier on Search and Spellcraft checks.

INTUITIVE SPELL PREPARATION [Magical]
You can recover spell slots without rest or need for meditation.
Prerequisite: Ability to cast 1st level Arcane spells without preparation (like a Bard or Sorcerer)
Benefit: Choose one spellcasting class that meets the above prerequisites plus a particular time of day (dawn, noon, dusk or midnight is recommended). Rather than regaining spell slots after resting, every day at this time your spell slots in this class automatically refresh, allowing you to cast your daily allotment of spells without need for rest or meditation. All spell slots used within 8 hours prior to your chosen time of day do not refresh and count against your daily spell limit for the following day.
Normal: Bards and sorcerers must rest for 8 hours and spend 15 minutes playing music or concentrating in order to recover their spell slots.

INVESTIGATOR [General]
You are a talented sleuth.
Benefit: You get a +2 bonus on all Gather Information checks and Search checks.

INVISIBLE SPELL [Metamagic]
You may make your spells invisible.
Benefit: A hidden spell incorporates an illusion that renders it and its effects invisible. Invisible Spell does not conceal the casting of the spell, only the spell effects. An invisible spell uses up a spell slot three levels higher than the spell's actual level.
Special: This feat does not work with Illusion Magic, or spells that depend on light or visibility for their effects. Casters who are prohibited from casting illusion spells can not use this feat. Non-permanent magical effects including invisible ones can be spotted as per invisible creatures with a DC20 Spot check for mobile effects, and DC 40 for non-mobile effects.
Notes: If the spell reasonably makes noise, has odor, or a tactile effect of some kind these effects are not hidden, it operates like any other invisibility effect. The “spell effects” refer to any magical manifestation of the spell, not indirect results of the spell. For instance, a ball of fire would be invisible but anything it ignites would be visibly burning.

IRON WILL [General]
You posses a strong will.
Benefit: You get a +2 bonus on all Will saving throws.

JACK OF ALL TRADES [General]

Benefit: Your unarmed strike has a critical threat range of 18-20 and deals slashing damage (at your option any attack can deal bludgeoning damage, but cannot then take advantage of the enhanced threat range).

You have learned to channel your Ki into devastating unarmed attacks.
Prerequisite: Wis 13, Str 11, Improved Unarmed Strike, Stunning Fist, Base attack bonus +3

You can take advantage of a prone opponent's weakness.

Benefit: To use this feat, you must expend your psionic focus. You are able to manifest two psionic defense powers as an immediate action (limited to the powers empty mind, intellect fortress, mental barrier, thought shield or tower of iron will). Manifesting two defense powers simultaneously costs a number of power points equal to the standard cost to activate both psionic powers +1, and you must know the powers in question in order to manifest them.

LEAD FISSILE FIRE [General]
You can trick opponents into shooting their allies by stepping aside at the last moment.
Prerequisite: Dex 13, Dodge, Bluff 4 ranks, Combat Reflexes
Benefit: If someone makes a ranged weapon against you while you are fighting in melee combat, you may make a Bluff check opposed by the attacker’s Sense Motive check + their Base Attack Bonus. If you succeed, the attacker instead attacks a target you designate who is adjacent to you or occupies the same space. Each time you use this ability it counts as one of your attacks of opportunity for the round and it can not be used if you have no attacks of opportunity of the round remaining.

LEADERSHIP [General]
Allies flock to your banner.
Prerequisite: Character level 6th
Benefit: Having this feat enables you to attract loyal companions and devoted followers, subordinates who assist you. See the tables below for what sort of cohort and how many followers you can recruit.
Leadership Modifiers: Several factors can affect your Leadership score, causing it to vary from the base score (character level + Cha modifier). Your reputation (from the point of view of the cohort or follower he is trying to attract) raises or lowers your Leadership score:

Leadership Score: Your base Leadership score equals your level plus any Charisma modifier. In order to take into account negative Charisma modifiers, this table allows for very low Leadership scores, but you must still be 6th level or higher in order to gain the Leadership feat. Outside factors can affect your Leadership score, as detailed above
Cohort Level: You can attract a cohort of up to this level. Regardless of your Leadership score, you can only recruit a cohort who is two or more levels lower than yourself. The cohort should be equipped with gear appropriate for its level. You can try to attract a cohort of a particular race, class, and alignment. The cohort's alignment may not be opposed to your alignment on either the law-vs-chaos or good-vs-evil axis, and you take a Leadership penalty if your recruit a cohort of an alignment different from your own.
Cohorts earn XP as follows:
The cohort does not count as a party member when determining the party's XP.
Divide the cohort's level by the level of the PC with whom he or she is associated (the character with the Leadership feat who attracted the cohort).
Multiply this result by the total XP awarded to the PC and add that number of experience points to the cohort's total.
If a cohort gains enough XP to bring it to a level one lower than the associated PC's character level, the cohort does not gain the new level-its new XP total is 1 less than the amount needed attain the next level.
Number of Followers by Level: You can lead up to the indicated number of characters of each level. Followers are similar to cohorts, except they're generally low-level NPCs. Because they're generally five or more levels behind the character they follow, they're rarely effective in combat.
Followers don't earn experience and thus don't gain levels. However, when a character with Leadership attains a new level, the player consults the table above to determine if she has acquired more followers, some of which may be higher level than the existing followers. (You don't consult the table to see if your cohort gains levels, however, because cohorts earn experience on their own.)
Comments: Although admittedly not listed in the SRD (still), it has been acknowledged by Skip Williams that the Leadership feat can be taken multiple times, and that it gives you both followers and a cohort, not one or the other.
A modification has also been suggested by Skip and others; the follower (not cohort) levels above should apply only to those with basic NPC Classes, i.e. Commoners, Experts and Warriors. Those with more advanced NPC Classes (Adepts and Aristocrats) and all PC Classes should be treated as if they are a level higher, and those with a prestige class as if they are two levels higher. So, for example, the most powerful follower of someone with a leadership score of 21 could be a 6th level Expert, but only a 5th level Wizard, or a 4th level character with a prestige class (which rules out all prestige classes in the SRD).

LEARN COMMAND [General]
You are good at figuring out how to activate magic items.
Prerequisite: Use Magic Device 5 ranks
Benefit: If you are successful when activating an item blindly (use magic device check DC25) you actually learn the true command word or activation mechanism for the item you are using and thus no longer need to activate it blindly henceforth.
Notes: You still may need to make a use magic device check to use the item if you don’t meet the normal requirements for it, you only get to skip the activate blindly check.

LEARNED METAMAGIC [Metamagic]
Through hard work, study and dedication, you have learned to combine your arcane knowledge with your innate spellcasting ability, enabling you to prepare certain metamagic spells.
Prerequisite: Int 13, Ability to cast Arcane spells without preparation (like a Bard or Sorcerer), Any Metamagic feat, Spellcraft 8 ranks, Knowledge (Arcana) 8 ranks
Benefit: You can prepare metamagically-enhanced versions of spells that you know exactly like a Wizard. Prepared metamagic spells take up a spellcasting slot of the appropriate level (against a Bard or Sorcerer’s spells per day) until cast, per the base spell and metamagic feat used to augment it. This spell slot cannot be used to cast another spell. Only spells known by the Bard or Sorcerer can be prepared in this fashion, and preparing a metamagic spell takes 15 minutes. A prepared metamagic spell is cast exactly as if the spell were cast by a Wizard, per the normal casting time of the base spell, and once cast the metamagic spell cannot be recast without being prepared again.
Normal: Bards and Sorcerers do not normally prepare spells.
Special: This allows a Bard or Sorcerer to make full use of Quicken Spell and similar feats. It does not provide knowledge of any other metamagic feat.

LEGENDARY CLIMBER [Epic]
You can climb quickly without penalty.
Prerequisite: Dex 21, Balance 12 ranks, Climb 24 ranks
Benefit: You can ignore any check penalties applied for accelerated climbing or rapid climbing.
Normal: Without this feat, a character takes a –5 penalty on Climb checks when attempting to cover his or her full speed in climbing distance in a round, or a –20 penalty when attempting to cover twice his or her speed in climbing distance in a round.

LEGENDARY COMMANDER [Epic, Special]
You can command many more followers.
Prerequisite: Cha 25, Epic Leadership, Leadership, Diplomacy 30 ranks, Must rule own kingdom and have a stronghold
Benefit: Multiply the number of followers of each level that your can lead by 10. This has no effect on cohorts.

LEGENDARY LEAPER [Epic]
You can jump without much of a running start.
Prerequisite: Jump 24 ranks
Benefit: You need only move 5 feet in a straight line to make a running jump.
Normal: Without this feat, a character must move at least 20 feet in a straight line before attempting a running jump.

LEGENDARY RIDER [Epic]
You can control a mount with hardly any effort.
Prerequisite: Ride 24 ranks
Benefit: You doesn’t take a penalty on Ride checks when riding a mount without a saddle (bareback). You never needs to make a Ride check to control a mount in combat (and even controlling a mount not trained for combat doesn’t require an action).
Normal: Without this feat, a character takes a –5 penalty on Ride checks without a saddle, and must make a Ride check to control a mount in combat (and controlling a mount not trained for combat requires a move action).

LEGENDARY TRACKER [Epic, Special]
You can track in almost any environment.
Prerequisite: Wis 25, Track, Knowledge (nature) 30 ranks, Survival 30 ranks
Benefit: You can track creatures across water, under-water, or through the air. This adds the surfaces of water, underwater, and air to the list of surfaces found under the Track feat - Surface DC Water 60 Underwater 80 Air 120

LEGENDARY WRESTLER [Epic, Fighter]
You are a true master of grappling.
Prerequisite: Str 21, Dex 21, Improved Unarmed Strike, Escape Artist 15 ranks
Benefit: You gain a +10 bonus on all grapple checks.

LIGHT AS A FEATHER [Special]
Your ability to levitate makes you all but immune to falling damage.
Prerequisite: Ability to levitate as a spell-like ability
Benefit: Instead of using your spell-like ability to levitate, you may feather fall per the spell, cast at your normal levitate caster level. Each use of feather fall counts as one of your levitate uses per day.

LIGHTEN WEAPON [General, Fighter]
You can wield a chosen weapon with less effort.
Prerequisite: Str 13, Base attack bonus +1
Benefit: Chose one type of weapon. When using a weapon of that type you may reduce the effort required to wield it by one step but suffer a -2 penalty to hit with that weapon. This allows you to wield a weapon one size larger as if it were your own size, use a two handed weapon in one hand, or a one handed weapon in your off hand as a light weapon.
Normal: Weapons of a size category one step larger increase the effort required to wield them by one step, light becoming one handed, one handed becoming two handed, and two handed becoming un-wieldable. Two handed weapons may not be used one handed. Using a one handed weapon in your off hand results in suffering a -2 attack penalty to all of your attacks (in addition to other off hand penalties that may apply).
Special: The effect of this feat does not stack with other feats that alter wielding effort or weapon size. You may take this feat multiple times each time choosing a different type of weapon.
Example: Rogar the Human Fighter takes Lighten Weapon and chooses Greatsword. He can now use a Medium sized Greatsword in one hand with a -2 to hit and adding 1 x Strength bonus to damage. He can also wield a Large sized Greatsword in two hands with a -2 to hit and adding 1.5 x Strength bonus to damage.

LIGHTNING PARRY [General, Fighter]
You use your lightning-quick strikes for defense instead of attack.
Prerequisite: Base attack bonus +3
Benefit: For each attack that you give up, you get a +2 dodge bonus to Armor Class. You choose which attacks to use this way. The Dodge bonus applies until the beginning of your next round. The maximum dodge bonus you can get this way is +4.
Special: Abilities that lets you attack several opponents as one attack (such as Whirlwind Attack) only count as one attack for the purpose of this feat. You cannot use the extra attacks granted by Cleave or attacks of opportunity to improve your armor class.
Notes: If you have extra attacks for any reason, such as due to haste, a weapon of speed, or various other magics, feats or tactics, those can now be used for defense. You must be able to make those attacks as a part of whatever type of action you are performing for the round, and incur all penalties associated with the multiple attacks you are using, such as those outlined under Two-Weapon Fighting or Flurry of Blows.

LIGHTNING REFLEXES [General]
You have excellent reflexes.
Benefit: You get a +2 bonus on all Reflex saving throws.

LINGERING DAMAGE [Epic, Stealth]
Wounds from your sneak attacks continue to bleed.
Prerequisite: Sneak attack 8d6, Crippling strike class feature
Benefit: Any time you deal damage with a sneak attack, that target takes damage equal to your sneak attack bonus damage on your next turn as well.

LINGUISTIC SAVANT [General]
You are talented at learning languages.
Benefit: You may speak two new languages that are available for you to learn. If you are not illiterate, you can also read and write in these languages. In addition, Speak Language is always considered a class skill for you.

LINKED RESISTANCE [Special]
When touching your familiar you can benefit from its Spell Resistance (SR).
Prerequisite: Familiar with SR.
Benefit: As a standard action when touching your familiar you can share in your familiar's SR until your next action.
Normal: SR cannot normally be shared between creatures.
Notes: At the sole discretion of your DM, this feat may be extended for use with a special mount, special companion, fiendish servant or even to a psicrystal that grants Power Resistance.

LOCAL ENEMY OFFENSIVE TRAINING [Regional]
You have been trained to fight aggressively against the tactics of a regional enemy.
Prerequisite: Base attack bonus +1, Region has local enemy
Benefit: You gain a +1 bonus on attack rolls versus your local enemy. This stacks with any racial bonuses you may have against similar creatures.
Notes: This is a regional ability comparable to a dwarf's or gnome's specialized racial training. Consult with your DM to see if this feat is available for your character's region.

LOOK HARMLESS [General, Role Play]
You have a knack for looking harmless, enabling you to avoid unwanted attention and potentially surprise your enemies.
Prerequisite: Bluff 4 ranks
Benefit: To use this feat you must have no visible weapons or threatening magic items. As long as you are acting in a non-threatening manner, you can make a Bluff check opposed by a Sense Motive by anyone you wish to fool. Anyone failing to beat your roll will direct their attention and attacks to someone else (at the DM’s discretion). If you initiate combat against someone who has been fooled in this way you automatically catch your opponent flat-footed for 1 round.
Special: This feat will not work against creatures with Intelligence under 3 or a creature that would consider anyone, or anyone of your race to automatically be dangerous or untrustworthy.

LOW PROFILE [Modern]
You keep it on the down low.
Benefit: Reduce your Reputation bonus by 3 points.

LUNGS OF STEEL [General, Trait]
Through arduous training or birth, you have maximized your ability to hold your breath and thus resist poisonous gas.
Benefit: You are able to hold your breath as if your Constitution score was 4 points higher (see Drowning in the SRD under Water Dangers in The Environment). Furthermore, you get a +2 circumstance bonus to all saving throws versus gas attacks (such as Cloudkill and Ungol Dust).
Special: You may only take this feat at character creation.

MAGEBANE [General]
You are better able to resist arcane magics than normal.
Prerequisite: Must not have a level in any class that offers arcane spellcasting
Benefit: You get a +2 bonus on all saving throws to resist arcane spells and spell-like abilities of creatures with arcane caster levels.

MAGIC SECRET [Magical]
Your magic is tied to a secret, making your spells harder to dispel.
Benefit: Because all of your magic is tied to a secret, those not knowing this secret find it harder to unravel your spells. The difficulty of any dispel check against your spells is 15 + your caster level instead of the normal 10 + caster level. However, anyone who knows your magical secret will automatically succeed in any dispel check against your magic.
Special: The effects of your spells are not changed in any way. The feat affects all of your spells from the moment you learn it; you cannot avoid using it.
Notes: A magical secret can be most anything, but it must be something that is possible to figure out. A secret name, your birthday, the name of your mentor or patron, the fact that you are of a strange race or parentage, your gender (or lack thereof), the true color of your hair; all are possible spell secrets. A creature can find out that you have this feat with a Spellcraft roll of DC 20 against one of your spells, or by researching your background and making a Knowledge (Local) skill roll against a DC of 20, or with a Bardic Knowledge roll against a DC of 20. This will not tell them what your exact secret is, however (although an additional Bardic Knowledge roll against a DC of 30 will). If a creature thinks that they know your secret they can concentrate upon it whilst attempting to dispel one of your spells; if they guess correctly they will automatically succeed and know this to be the case.

MAGIC SENSE [General, Magical]
You identify any magical effect you make a Will save against.
Prerequisite: Spellcraft 4 ranks
Benefit: When you make a successful Will save against any magical (or psionic) effect, you learn what the effect would have done to you if you had failed the saving throw.
Normal: A creature that successfully saves against a spell that has no obvious physical effects feels a hostile force or tingle, but cannot deduce the exact nature of the attack.

MAGICAL APTITUDE [General]
You are talented in the ways of magic.
Benefit: You get a +2 bonus on all Spellcraft checks and Use Magic Device checks.

MAGICAL BEAST COMPANION [Epic, Wild]
You can have magical beasts as animal companions.
Prerequisite: Knowledge (nature) 24 ranks, Wild shape 6/day
Benefit: The following magical beasts are added to the lists of animal companions from which you can select. 1st Level (no adjustment) Stirge Darkmantle 4th Level (-3) Hippogriff Shocker lizard 7th Level (-6) Cockatrice Ankheg Griffon Owlbear Sea cat* 10th Level (-9) Basilisk Digerster Girallon Spider eater 13th Level (-12) Bulette Chimera Remorhaz 16th Level (-15) Gorgon Gray render
Special: Creatures marked with an asterisk are available only in an aquatic environment.
MAGICAL BEAST COMPANION Copyright 2000, System Reference Document
Comments: There seems to be no reason why this feat should require wild shape as a prerequisite apart from to restrict it to Druids; as such it should be removed and the ability to obtain animal companions made the prerequisite as well, which would also remove Wild as a type. The Netbook of Feats team would also prefer some guidelines on how to work out what other monsters could be added to this table at what level, eg HD or CR restrictions. There is also a feeling that this should be a normal, not Epic, feat.

MAGICAL BEAST WILD SHAPE [Epic, Wild]
You can wild shape into magical beasts.
Prerequisite: Wis 25, Knowledge (nature) 27 ranks, Wild shape 6/day
Benefit: You can use your normal wild shape ability to take the form of a magical beast. The size limitation is the same as your limitation on animal size. You gains all supernatural abilities of the magical beast whose form you take.

MAIN GAUCHE [General, Fighter]
Defend with an off-hand weapon
Prerequisite: Two-weapon Fighting
Benefit: If you are using a light off-hand weapon, or even holding a buckler, hat or rolled up cloak in your off hand, you can use your off-hand weapon to defend. It also works with a double weapon. You must make a full-round attack, and you are giving up all off-hand attacks for the round. This gives you a +4 bonus to Armor Class and a -2 penalty to attack.
Special: If you use a buckler this way, you do not get its normal armor bonus.
Notes: Main Gauche means simply 'left hand', but it is often applied to a left-hand parrying dagger and the fighting style that goes with it. The forerunner of modern fencing, it uses an off hand weapon to deflect attacks, but not to attack with. This feat represent the very earliest fencing styles, and is appropriate for an early renaissance campaign.

MANUAL TECHNIQUE [General]
You reason out locks, knots and slights of hand.
Benefit: You may use your Intelligence modifier in place of your Dexterity modifier on Open Lock, Use Rope and Sleight of Hand checks.

MANYSHOT [General, Fighter]
You can fire two or more arrows in one attack.
Prerequisite: Dex 17, Point Blank Shot, Rapid Shot, Base attack bonus +6
Benefit: As a standard action, you may fire two arrows at a single opponent within 30 feet. Both arrows use the same attack roll (with a –4 penalty) to determine success and deal damage normally (but see Special). For every five points of base attack bonus you have above +6, you may add one additional arrow to this attack, to a maximum of four arrows at a base attack bonus of +16. However, each arrow after the second adds a cumulative –2 penalty on the attack roll (for a total penalty of –6 for three arrows and –8 for four). Damage reduction and other resistances apply separately against each arrow fired.
Special: Regardless of the number of arrows you fire, you apply precision-based damage only once. If you score a critical hit, only the first arrow fired deals critical damage; all others deal regular damage. A fighter may select Manyshot as one of his fighter bonus feats. A 6th-level ranger who has chosen the archery combat style is treated as having Manyshot even if he does not have the prerequisites for it, but only when he is wearing light or no armor.

MARTIAL WEAPON PROFICIENCY [General, Fighter]
Choose a type of martial weapon. You understand how to use that type of martial weapon in combat.
Benefit: You make attack rolls with the selected weapon normally.
Normal: When using a weapon with which you are not proficient, you take a –4 penalty on attack rolls.
Special: Barbarians, fighters, paladins, and rangers are proficient with all martial weapons. They need not select this feat. You can gain Martial Weapon Proficiency multiple times. Each time you take the feat, it applies to a new type of weapon. A cleric who chooses the War domain automatically gains the Martial Weapon Proficiency feat related to his deity’s favored weapon as a bonus feat, if the weapon is a martial one. He need not select it.

MASS EFFECT SPELL [Metamagic]
Your spells can affect more targets.
Benefit: A spell that normally affects a single target now affects one target per level, no two of which can be more than 30 ft. apart. A mass effect spell uses up a spell slot four levels higher than the spell’s actual level.
Special: Range is not changed in any way, except that touch spells can be cast on a chain of creatures all touching one another (and hence is unlikely to be useful for combat spells). This feat does not work on spells with a “personal” range.

MASTER ARTISAN [General]
You can make items faster using the Craft skill.
Prerequisite: Craft (of the specific type chosen with the feat) 8 ranks or higher
Benefit: Select a craft skill when you learn this feat. When working in a well-equipped workshop (5,000gp value or better), with at least two assistants (who need not be skilled), you can produce craft goods of this type at an increased rate. Calculate production in gold pieces per week, instead of the usual silver pieces per week resulting in a crafting rate ten times faster than normal.
Special: This feat can be taken several times, but does not stack. Each time, it applies to a different variant of the Craft skill.

MASTER BATTLECASTER [General]
You have mastered the ability to combine magic and war-skill on the battlefield.
Prerequisite: Combat Casting, Base attack bonus +6, Concentration 8 ranks, Ability to cast second level spells
Benefit: During a full attack action, you may sacrifice a single attack of your highest attack bonus in order to cast a spell with a casting time of one standard action or less. Casting a spell in combat in this manner is difficult and requires a Concentration check (DC 20 + spell level) to do successfully. Casting a spell while threatened by an opponent still triggers an Attack of Opportunity, which may be avoided by casting defensively.
Example: You have two attacks, one at +10 and a second at +5, you may sacrifice the +10 attack to cast a spell in combat, and still make an attack at +5.

MASTER STAFF [Epic, Magical]
You can channel your own magic to power a staff.
Prerequisite: Craft Staff, Spellcraft 15 ranks
Benefit: When you activate a staff, you can substitute a spell slot instead of using a charge. The spell slot must be one you have not used for the day, though you may lose a prepared spell to emulate a staff charge (you may not lose prepared spells from your school of specialty, if any). The spell slot lost must be equal to or higher in level than the specific spell stored in the staff, including any level-increasing metamagic enhancements. You cannot emulate a charge for a staff function that does not match a specific spell.

MASTER WAND [Epic, Magical]
You can channel your own magic to power a wand.
Prerequisite: Craft Wand, Spellcraft 15 ranks
Benefit: When you activate a wand, you can substitute a spell slot instead of using a charge. The spell slot must be one you have not used for the day, though you may lose a prepared spell to emulate a wand charge (you may not lose prepared spells from yourschool of specialty, if any). The spell slot lost must be equal to or higher in level than the spell stored in the wand, including any level-increasing metamagic enhancements.

MASTERFUL SCROLL CASTING [Epic]
You can cast a spell from a scroll without causing the writing of the activated spell to disappear.
Prerequisite: Scribe Scroll, Spellcraft 15 ranks
Benefit: By spending a spell slot equal or higher in level to the spell activated from a scroll, you can cast the spell from the scroll without causing the writing of the spell to disappear. A prepared spell or any unused spell slot can be used to power the scroll, but the prepared spell or spell slot cannot be from your chosen domain or specialty school. Casting a spell from a scroll in this manner requires a full-round action that provokes attacks of opportunity. Otherwise, all standard rules for scroll casting apply (the scroll must first be deciphered, it must be the correct type and appear or your class list, and you must have the prerequisite ability score to cast spells of that level).

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: the maximum result plus one-half the normally rolled result. Using this feat increases the power point cost of the power by 4. The power’s total cost cannot exceed your manifester level.

MAXIMIZE SPELL [Metamagic]
You can maximize the potential of your spells.
Benefit: All variable, numeric effects of a spell modified by this feat are maximized. Saving throws and opposed rolls are not affected, nor are spells without random variables. A maximized spell uses up a spell slot three levels higher than the spell’s actual level. An empowered, maximized spell gains the separate benefits of each feat: the maximum result plus one-half the normally rolled result.

MEDDLESOME [General]
You are well trained in the art of disrupting spell casting.
Prerequisite: Base attack bonus +4
Benefit: Anyone you threaten suffers a -5 penalty on any attempt to cast defensively.

MEDICAL EXPERT [Modern]
You have a knack for medicine.
Benefit: You get a +2 bonus on all Craft (pharmaceutical) and Treat Injury checks.
Special: Remember that the Craft (pharmaceutical) skill can’t be used untrained.

MENAGERIE [Magical]
You have an impressive affinity for summoning spells.
Prerequisite: Spell Focus (conjuration)
Benefit: When casting any Conjuration (summoning) spell with a limited duration, you can summon twice the normal number of items or creatures. In return, the duration of your spell is reduced to one-fourth, with a minimum of 1 round.

MENTAL LEAP [Psionic]
You can make amazing jumps.
Prerequisite: Jump 5 ranks, Str 13
Benefit: To use this feat, you must expend your psionic focus. You gain a +10 bonus on a Jump check.

MENTAL RESISTANCE [General]
Your mind is armored against mental intrusion.
Prerequisite: Base Will save bonus +2
Benefit: Against psionic attacks that do not employ an energy type to deal damage you gain damage reduction 3/–. In addition, when you are hit with ability damage (but not ability drain or ability burn damage) from a psionic attack, you take 3 points less than you would normally take. The benefit of this feat applies only to psionic powers and psi-like abilities. This is an exception to the psionics–magic transparency rule.
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).

METAFFINITY [Metamagic]
You are adept at casting metamagic Arcane spells without prior preparation.
Prerequisite: Ability to cast Arcane spells without preparation (like a Bard or Sorcerer), Any metamagic feat
Benefit: Despite the fact that you do not prepare spells, you are able to cast any spell augmented by any other metamagic feat that you know without increasing the spell’s casting time. Spells cast through the use of this feat use up a spell slot one level higher than the spell’s metamagically enhanced level.
Normal: Sorcerers, Bards and other Arcane spellcasters that do not prepare spells normally take more time to cast a metamagic spell than a normal one; if a spell’s normal casting time is 1 standard action, a Sorcerer or Bard can cast a metamagically-enhanced version of the spell as a full-round action, and spells with longer casting times take an additional full-round action to cast.
Special: This feat can be combined with the Quicken Spell feat, a feat not normally useful to Sorcerers and Bards.
Example: Aerryk, a 17th level Sorcerer, has the Metaffinity, Quicken Spell and Maximize Spell feats. He can cast a maximized Lightning Bolt spell as a full-round action by using up a 6th level spell slot or use his Metaffinity feat to cast a maximized Lightning Bolt in 1 standard action by using up a 7th level spell slot. He could also use his Metaffinity feat to cast a quickened Lightning Bolt as a free action by using up an 8th level spell slot, but would not be able to maximize the spell.

METALINGUIST [General]
You have an intuitive understanding of the basics of communication.
Benefit: If you do not share a language with another person/creature, you may, over the course of a minute, convey an abstract thought, idea or question that you could otherwise express with a full round of speech. If the other party also takes the time to communicate at the same pace, you can understand in return. Of course, there is always some risk of mistranslation.
Special: You can only communicate with creatures that speak some language. A purely telepathic creature, or one communicating through scents but not words, is unintelligible to you.
Notes: This feat incorporates the Pidgin feat from earlier versions of the Netbook of Feats.

METAMORPHIC TRANSFER [Psionic]
You can gain a supernatural ability of a metamorphed form.
Prerequisite: Wis 13, Manifester level 5th
Benefit: Each time you change your form, such as through the metamorphosis power, you gain one of the new form’s supernatural abilities, if it has any. You gain only three uses of the metamorphic ability per day, even if the creature into which you metamorph has a higher limit on uses (You are still subject to other restrictions on the use of the ability.) The save DC to resist a supernatural ability gained through Metamorphic Transfer (if it is an attack) is 10 + your Cha modifier + 1/2 your Hit Dice.
Normal: You cannot use the supernatural abilities of creatures whose form you assume.
Special: You can gain this feat multiple times. Each time, you can gain one additional supernatural ability.

METASPELL [Magical]
You can learn metamagically-enhanced spells instead of standard spells.
Prerequisite: Ability to cast Arcane spells without preparation (like a Bard or Sorcerer)
Benefit: When you gain new spells, you have the option of learning a metamagically-enhanced spell in place of another spell of the appropriate level. This spell takes up a spell-slot appropriate for the normal level of the spell, modified by the metamagic feat used to augment the spell. You do not need to know the base spell nor the metamagic feat used to modify the spell in order to use this feat. Once a metamagically-enhanced spell is learned in this manner, you cannot cast the spell without its metamagic enhancement, though you can augment the spell in standard fashion with additional metamagic feats. A metamagic spell learned in this fashion is treated as a normal spell, and as such does not increase the time needed to cast the spell.
Example: A Sorcerer normally gains a 5th level spell upon attaining 10th level. Instead of learning a standard 5th level spell, a Sorcerer with the Metaspell feat could learn an Empowered Fireball spell (3rd level spell +2 spell levels for the Empower feat).
Notes: This may be appropriate as a house rule for many campaigns without requiring purchase as a feat.

METICULOUS [General]
You are talented at forgery and looting.
Benefit: You get a +2 bonus on all Forgery and Search checks.


MIGHTY CHARGE [General, Fighter]
You charge with single minded purpose and determination.

Notes: This feat allows you to provide food and water for two more people when you make a Survival roll for this purpose, since every two points that the Survival roll exceeds ten provides food for another person.

Your racial psionic aptitude allows you to communicate through mental contact.
Prerequisite: Naturally Psionic racial ability
Benefit: You possess the limited ability to communicate telepathically with any willing creature within 30 feet that shares at least one language in common with you. It is possible to address multiple creatures at once telepathically, although maintaining a telepathic conversation with more than one creature at a time is just as difficult as simultaneously speaking and listening to multiple people at the same time. Spells, psionic powers and other special abilities that block telepathy or divination also block this form of communication.
Special: You may only select this feat as a first level character.

MINOR DAMAGE REDUCTION [General]
You can shrug off minor injuries.

MIRROR MIND [Psionic]
Also known as psionic reflection, this feat allows you to reflect psionic attacks directed against you.
Prerequisite: Manifester level 5th
Benefit: To use this feat you must expend your psionic focus. As an immediate action after successfully defending against a psionic power that does not employ an energy type to inflict damage, you can reflect this attack back towards your attacker.

MISSILE PROOF [General, Fighter]
You may block projectiles easily with your shield.
Prerequisite: Combat Reflexes, Shield Proficiency
Benefit: You must be using a Buckler, Small Shield or Large Shield when using this feat. Once per round when you or someone immediately behind you would normally be hit with a ranged weapon, you may make a Reflex saving throw against a DC of 20 (if the ranged weapon has a magical bonus to attack, the DC increases by that amount). You add a Small or Large Shield's armor bonus, and enhancement bonus if applicable, to your Reflex check for purposes of this feat. If you succeed, you deflect the weapon. You must be aware of the attack and not flat-footed. You may block an incoming missile attack with your shield only once per round. This feat also allows you to block magical projectile attacks (e.g. acid arrow, fire arrow), but the shield will sustain any damage from the spell that exceeds its hardness. Against special attacks with splash damage (e.g. acid, alchemist's fire, etc.), if the Reflex saving throw is successful, the shield takes the primary damage and you take only the splash damage.
Special: You may take this feat multiple times. Its effects do not stack. Each time you take this feat, you may block an additional missile attack with your shield. You may not block more attacks in a round than 1 + your Dexterity bonus (minimum of one attack).

Special: A fighter may select Mounted Combat as one of his fighter bonus feats.

MOUNTED DODGE [General, Fighter]
You may avoid attacks to yourself or your mount.
Prerequisite: Wild Rider, Mounted Combat, Ride skill
Benefit: When mounted, you may use your Ride skill and Mounted Combat feat to evade attacks against yourself or against your mount. Either use counts against the limitation on how often Mounted Combat can be used.

In addition the mount move twice its current movement rate while Overrunning by making the Overrun combat maneuver a full round action instead of a standard action. If the mount fails a strength check at any point, the maneuver ends as normal.

You can use secondary attacks at a reduced penalty.
Prerequisite: Three natural attacks

Benefits are doubled when used in conjunction with the Power Attack feat.
Normal: The creature gains no benefit for wielding a weapon with more than two hands.
Special: In conjunction with the Multiweapon Fighting feat the creature can combine use of a weapon with two or more hands and still gain extra attacks for wielding additional weapons in combat. When determining the penalty for wielding a weapon with two or more hands in a multiattack sequence, treat all multihanded weapons as one-handed weapons.
Example: A typical Marilith with Strength 21, Multihanded Weapon and Multiweapon Fighting could wield two greatswords, each with three hands. She would inflict double her Strength bonus on damage inflicted by her primary greatsword (1 for her primary hand plus 2 off-hands * .5 = 2), and 1.5 times her Strength bonus with her off-hand greatsword (3 * .5 = 1.5). She could also drop one of the greatswords to wield the other with all six hands, gaining 3.5 times her Strength bonus on damage rolls (1 for using her primary hand plus 5 * .5 = 2.5 for her 5 off-hands).

OVERWHELMING CRITICAL Copyright 2000, System Reference Document
Comments: The Netbook of Feats team is confused as to why Cleave and Great Cleave are prerequisites, and why d6s of damage are used rather than the weapon base damage. There is a suggestion to just increase the weapon's critical multiplier by one instead.

Special: This feat may be taken multiple times. Each time, select a different spell to become permanent.

PERMANENT EMANATION Copyright 2000, System Reference Document
Comments: The Netbook of Feats team believes that this feat could be open to serious abuse (e.g. with a permanent Repulsion, Invisibility Sphere, Globe of Invulnerability, Antilife Shell, Null Psionics Field, Affinity Field, etc) and as such should have a level restriction - e.g. only 3rd or lower level spells can be made permanent.

PERSISTENT SPELL [Metamagic]
You can extend a spells duration to a full day.
Prerequisite: Extend Spell
Benefit: A persistent spell has a duration of 24 hours. The persistent spell must have a personal range or a fixed range. Spells of instantaneous duration cannot be affected by this feat, nor can spells whose effects are discharged. You need not concentrate on spells such as detect magic or detect thoughts to be aware of the mere presence of absence of the things detected, but you must still concentrate to gain additional information as normal. Concentration on such a spell is a standard action that does not provoke an attack of opportunity. A persistent spell uses up a spell slot six levels higher than the spell’s actual level.

PERSONAL FIREARMS PROFICIENCY [Modern]
You are skilled with small arms.
Benefit: You can fire any personal firearm without penalty.
Normal: Without this feat you take a –4 penalty on attack rolls made with personal firearms.

PERSUASIVE [General]
When you speak, people listen.
Benefit: You get a +2 bonus on all Bluff checks and Intimidate checks.

PIERCE ARMOR [General, Fighter]
You have mastered armor-piercing weapons.
Prerequisite: Base attack bonus +1
Benefit: You must be using either a heavy crossbow or a weapon with a x4 critical damage modifier to use this feat. You add +1 to your attack roll if your opponent is wearing light armor, +2 if your opponent is wearing medium armor, and +3 if your opponent is wearing heavy armor. Shields and natural armor are not considered armor for the purposes of this feat.

PIN WEAPON [General, Fighter]
This feat allows you to 'lock blades' with an opponent, reducing their ability to react
Prerequisite: Base attack bonus +3
Benefit: As a full-attack action, you can strike an opponent's weapon in order to pin it. This works like a disarm but does not trigger an attack of opportunity. A successful pin causes both of you to be flat-footed as long as it is maintained.
Special: You can only use Pin Weapon unarmed if you have the Improved Unarmed Strike feat.
Example: Friar Tuck is rescuing some children from a castle dungeon when a guard blocks the way. Tuck pins his weapon, shouting for the children to run past. The guard cannot make any attacks of opportunity, being flat-footed.
