An enemy that makes this save may not be affected by this ability for an entire day.  This ability lasts as long as the hostile creature threatens the Sentinel. This ability does not function if a Sentinel is Unconscious, Paralyzed, or otherwise incapacitated.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Rush of Adrenaline: At 5th level, the Sentinel may trade in one turning attempt, if any previous classes have yielded this ability, to add his Sentinel level+Cha bonus to any one action roll, of any kind, including damage.  At 7th level, this ability may be used as a reaction, for example, it may be added to saving throws and to reactionary skills.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Compulsion of Battle: By 6th level, the Sentinel's bloodlust has become so strong that he will seek to enter melee as soon as possible. Every round after combat begins that the Sentinel is *not* engaged in Melee, he suffers a -2 circumstance penalty on all his rolls as the compulsion to get "stuck in" gnaws at him. Likewise, if the Sentinel ever willfully and knowingly retreats from a battle (barring magical fear and other effects) he may not rage or cast any divine spells until proper penance is made (Usually, an Atonement ) As a benefit to this however, the Sentinel no longer applies the -2 AC penalty when raging.  The Sentinel may attempt to resist the effects of this ability by making a Will save each round after the first that he wishes to remain outside of melee combat at a DC of 10+Sentinel level+round after the first.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Aura of Menace: At 9th level, divine favor radiates from the Sentinel, acting as a 15ft circle of Fear that only affects hostile creatures that have been hit by the Sentinel in combat, provided that they fail a Will save at DC 10+Sentinel level+Cha bonus of the Sentinel. This can be supressed at will, except when raging. A creature that has made its saving throw cannot be affected by this ability for an entire day.  Also, as above, this ability does not work when the Sentinel is unconcious, paralyzed or otherwise incapacitated.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Fury of Battle: at 10th level, the Sentinel has honed his rage so sharply that he is considered to be always raging if engaged in melee combat. This ability can *not* be supressed, but it is not triggered unless the Sentinel suffers an amount of damage equal to Con bonus X character level in a single round.  This ability lasts until the Sentinel disengages from melee.</li> </ul>BAB = Level of SentinelFort = StrongRef = WeakWill = Strong</blockquote>
