When you make a successful melee or ranged attack, 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.Focused Inquisitor [Psionic]You are adept at discerning the truth.Prerequisite: Negotiator, Wis 13Benefit: To use this feat, you must maintain your psionic focus.

The power's total cost cannot exceed your manifester level.Focused Stand Still [Psionic]You can prevent foes from fleeing, closing, or standing up.Prerequisite: Power Attack, Combat ReflexesBenefit: To use this feat, you must maintain your psionic focus.

If you strike your opponent, he must make a Fortitude save vs. DC 10 + your damage inflicted, or he is unable to stand or move out of the threatened square.Focused Penetration [Psionic]Your powers are hard to resist.Benefit: To use this feat, you must maintain your psionic focus.
