[QUOTE="Dr. Strangemonkey, post: 2082137, member: 6533"] I like your take on the other two feats, though I would be tempted to put in some sort of bonus to intimidate, diplomacy, or sense motive checks when interrogating creatures of an opposite alignment to the Vow of Understanding. I just don't know if that would make it terribly overpowered or not. The Vow of Joy is something I'm pretty committed to with regard to the character, but I agree with you that the above benefit, while cool, is a bit unfeasable. Particularly since the character in question will soon be immune to most of those things via the Oathsworn class features. Been thinking about two ways to do this feat: Method I: Character is unable to ask for or administer healing to himself is also unable to ask for shelter or retreat in the face of evil - though a head to head confrontation is not mandated either - in return character recieves immunity to pain effects, damage reduction 2/-, and while sleeping the character may use one healing effect on himself and also heals as many hit points as if he had rested for the day while recieving full medical attention. This stacks with actually resting for a day and recieving full medical attention. Method II: Character is unable to retreat in the face of evil - though head to head confrontation is not mandated either, may not ask for healing, and must not refuse a gift - though the character is not under any obligation to keep it. In return, character recieves wisdom bonus as a bonus to one saving throw, a +2 bonus to AC versus evil creatures, and a free intimidation check against any creature with that utilizes a fear effect. Or some combination, thereof, though I really do like the free intimidation check/charisma bonus against creatures that utilize a fear effect. That fits both St. Francis and Billy. Might do it as two different feats, actually. [/QUOTE]
