[QUOTE="Nebuchadnezzar, post: 66491, member: 1938"] Here is a Forgotten Realms specific feat which I made for my female drow ranger (not a Drizzt clone). EILISTRAEE'S EVASION [Special] You have mastered a fighting style practiced amongst the faithful of Eilistraee which allows you to take advantage of an opponent's armor. Prerequisites: Dex 15+ and Int 13+. Benefit: You gain a dodge bonus to AC equal to the armor check penalty (if any) of the opponent striking you. You must be wearing no or light armor to receive the AC bonus, and you must have at least one hand free (buckler allowed though). Note: A condition that makes you lose your Dexterity bonus to Armor Class also makes you lose dodge bonuses. Special: Can only be taken during character creation. The few who master this art are dedicated to Eilistraee, and the fighting style must be learned from them. Teaching this feat to someone who does not have Eilistraee as patron deity is considered a grave crime amongst her worshippers. I wanted to tie the feat in with my character's background. You could easily make it a normal feat (to be taken at any level) and add Expertise as a prerequisite. The reason it must be taken at character creation is because of the huge amount of time necessary to master the style. One could not simply pick it when 3rd level is reached after a dungeon-crawl. The ability itself is a copy of Moving With Shadows from Oriental Adventures, where it is an ability of a prestige class. I thought it was cool because it could give the intelligent, expertise-type fighter an edge. [/QUOTE]
