[QUOTE="StreamOfTheSky, post: 5197297, member: 35909"] Well, aside from the fact I'd probably just allow a character to forgoe his AoO* to freely step out of the way as a houserule anyway... I'm sure there's lots of things in the 3E rules to allow for an immediate movement. The two that happen to come to mind for me at this time of night, though, are the following: Abrupt Jaunt Conjuror variant from PHB 2: Immediate action teleport 10 ft. Not sure if it can be used on an ally, I've only ever seen it used when a wizard was saving his own bacon. Evasive Reflexes feat from Tome of Battle: Lets you take a 5 ft step instead of an AoO whenever someone provokes one from you. (There are stances and maneuvers in ToB to also get immediate action or reactive 5 ft steps or movement, too) *You get an AoO for an enemy moving through your threatened space, normally. With forced movement it's not always the case, but bull rushing someone certainly makes them provoke in 3E, for one thing. In any case, they're coming at you...as long as you threaten the square in front of you, as it's leaving that square and before it actually enters yours, you get your AoO. [/QUOTE]
