Class Features:
Weapon and Armor Proficiency: The Divine Knight gains no new weapon or armor proficiency.
Sword Skills (Su): At every level, the Divine Knight gains access to a new Sword Skill as shown on the chart. All of these take a standard action to use, and the save DC, where applicable, is 10 + Divine Knight level + Divine Knight‘s Charisma Modifier + Enhancement Bonus of the Knight Sword used (Example, a 3rd level Divine Knight with a Charisma of 16 and a +3 Knight Sword would have a DC of 19). Level dependant effects refer to the character‘s Divine Knight level. Each one is a supernatural effect, focused through the Knight Sword, so while it is not a melee attack in any way, it requires the Knight to have a sword in hand. Using a Sword Skill takes a number of turning or rebuke attempts equal to the amount specified in the ability.
The Knight may attempt to use a Sword Skill without spending any turning or rebuke attempts, but each time he does so he must make a Fortitude save (DC 10 + 1 per Turning/Rebuking attempt it would normally use + 2 for each time he’s executed a Sword Skill in this fashion without 8 hours of rest), if he fails, the ability fails, and the Knight becomes fatigued. If he is fatigued already he becomes exhausted instead. He may not use a Sword Skill if exhausted. The Knight may otherwise use these abilities at will, but must wait 1d4 rounds after using one before using the same Skill (although he may use others during this time frame).
Sword Skills never affect the Knight who uses them, even if he is caught in its area of affect or the ability is some how rebounded upon him. The following feats the Knight may have may be applied to his Sword Skills that either require a ranged attack or deal damage (as appropriate): Improved Critical (Knight Sword), Weapon Focus (Knight Sword), Weapon Specialization (Knight Sword)
