====Class Features====

All of the following are class features of the Sublime Grandmaster.

'''Maneuvers:''' At 1st level and every level beyond, you gain a new maneuver known from your specialized discipline. You must meet a maneuver’s prerequisites to learn it. You add your full sublime grandmaster levels to your initiator level to determine your total initiator level and your highest-level maneuvers known. At 3rd level and 5th level, you gain an additional maneuver readied per day.

'''Stances Known:''' At 3rd and 5th level, you learn a new martial stance from your specialized disciplines. You must meet a stance’s prerequisite to learn it. 

'''{{Anchor|Specialized Discipline}}:''' A 1st-level Sublime Grandmaster chooses a single discipline which she meets the prerequisites of Sublime Grandmaster with. This discipline if now her Specialized Discipline. She gain a +2 bonus on Initiator level and DC when using maneuver of the chosen discipline. 

'''{{Anchor|Weapon Mastery}}:''' The Sublime Grandmaster gains [[SRD:Weapon Focus|Weapon Focus]] and [[SRD:Weapon Specialization|Weapon Specialization]] with all weapons of her favored discipline. If the Sublime Grandmaster already possesses both feat for a weapon, she gains [[SRD:Greater Weapon Focus|Greater Weapon Focus]] with that weapon instead.  

'''{{Anchor|Convert Maneuver}} {{Ex}}:''' A 2nd-level Sublime Grandmaster is capable of converting any readied maneuver of her specialized discipline into another maneuver of equal or lower level also belonging to that discipline. 

'''{{Anchor|Counter Mastery}} {{Ex}}:''' A 3rd-level Sublime Grandmaster gains an additional immediate action per turn; however it can only be used to initiate a [Counter] maneuver from her specialized discipline.

'''{{Anchor|Superior Stances}} {{Ex}}:''' A 4th-level Sublime Grandmaster is able to assume a single stance of her specialized discipline and one from another discipline at the same time.  

'''{{Anchor|Supreme Greatness}} {{Ex}}:''' A 5th-level Sublime Grandmaster possesses incredible skill when using her specialized discipline. When she initiates a strike from her specialized discipline, she gains the benefit of Weapon Supremacy<sup>PHB2</sup>.

If another initiator attempts to initiate a maneuver of the Sublime Grandmaster's specialized discipline against her, he must attempt an opposed initiator level check against her. If the Sublime Grandmaster wins the opposed check, the maneuver fails to activate; a strike becomes a regular attack, a counter fails to function, and so on.
