Iaijutsu Master

<-fluff about this prestige class->

Becoming a Iaijutsu Master
This class hinges around the use of the skill Iaijutsu Focus, found in Oriental Adventures. If your campaign does not use or support the use of this skill, this PRC is not an attractive choice for you. Alternatively, if your campagin does support the use of this skill, but katanas aren't culturally appropriate, substitue them for a weapon that is, such as a bastard sword or an elven court blade.

Class Features
All of the following are class features of the Iaijutsu Master.

Weapon and Armor Proficiency: Iaijutsu masters are proficient with all simple and martial weapons. Iaijutsu masters do not gain any proficiency with armor or shields.

 (Ex): At 1st level, an iaijutsu master may use her Dexterity modifier instead of her Strength modifier on attack rolls with her katana. This works like the Weapon Finesse feat, except that it applies to the katana, a weapon to which the feat cannot normally be applied.

 (Ex): When not wearing armor, iaijutsu masters add their Intelligence modifier as a dodge bonus to AC.

The iaijutsu master must meet the requirements for this feat.

 (Ex): An iaijutsu master of 2nd level or higher adds her Charisma modifier to her initiative checks, as well as her Dexterity modifier.

 (Ex): An iaijutsu master of 3rd level or higher adds her Charisma modifier to each extra damage die gained from using the Iaijutsu Focus skill.

The iaijutsu master must meet the requirements for this feat.

 (Ex): At 4th level and above, an iaijutsu master can make two attacks with a katana as a standard action.

 (Ex): If an iaijutsu master of 5th level begins combat (not an iaijutsu duel) within melee range of an opponent, she gains an immediate attack of opportunity and her opponent is considered flat-footed. For example, if the iaijutsu master Kakita Timoshiko and Bayushi Koro are standing on the street hurling insults at each other and the situation erupts into combat, Timoshiko can attack with his katana before Koro even rolls initiative, catching his opponent flat-footed. This ability reflects the iaijutsu master's ability to apply the principles of the iaijutsu duel in normal melee combat. It does not give the iaijutsu master any additional benefit within an iaijutsu duel.
