Class Features

All of the following are class features of the fighter.

Weapon and Armor Proficiency: A fighter is proficient with their unarmed strikes and natural weapons, all simple and martial weapons and with all armor (heavy, medium, and light) and shields (including tower shields). At character creation, the fighter can choose 3 exotic weapons to be proficient in. If multiclassing as a fighter later on, the character can become proficient in 3 weapons by spending 12 hours each training with the 3 weapons of their choice.

Bonus Feats: At 1st level, a fighter gets 1 bonus combat-oriented feat in addition to the feat that any 1st-level character gets and the bonus feat granted to a human character. The fighter gains an additional bonus feat at 2nd level and every two fighter levels thereafter (4th, 6th, 8th, 10th, 12th, 14th, 16th, 18th, and 20th). These bonus feats must be drawn from the feats noted as fighter bonus feats. A fighter must still meet all prerequisites for a bonus feat, including ability score and base attack bonus minimums. These bonus feats are in addition to the feat that a character of any class gets from advancing levels. A fighter is not limited to the list of fighter bonus feats when choosing these feats.

The save against a fighter's abilities is DC 10 + 1/2 BAB + strength or dexterity modifier unless otherwise stated. The fighter can choose which ability score to use when using their fighter class features.

Marked for Death (Ex): The fighter can with this ability choose a single foe they can see or hear. For the duration of the encounter as long as the fighter is engaged with only the marked foe, the marked foe if it attacks anyone other then the fighter takes a penalty equal to 1/2 the fighter's level (minimum 1) to all rolls, checks, armor class and relex/will saves and now suffers a 10% per 5 fighter levels (You start with 10% and can reach a max of 50%) spell/psionics failure chance (this applies to divine magic and any form of spells or spell like abilities or psionics or psi like abilities as well).The fighter can also when fighting a magic/psionics using foe that is casting defensively make either a reflex save or dexterity check against the caster/manifester's concentration check, if the fighter wins, they can attack the caster/manifester and disrupt the magic/psionics even if the marked foe is casting defensively for that round.

Additionally the fighter as long as they are engaged with only the marked foe gains a circumstance bonus equal to 1/2 the fighter's level (minimum 1) to ac/ dr- /sr against the foe's attacks and saves against the targeted foe abilities and magic/psionics. The fighter gains damage reduction/- and spell resistance even if they don't have it normally.

Engaged can mean a variety of things such as the fighter only attacking the marked foe, trying to block only the marked foe's movement or actions or the fighter trying in someway to either impede, harm or hamper the marked foe and only the marked foe.

At level 3 the marked foe additionally can now only move at half speed if not attacking or engaging only the fighter unless it passes a reflex save each round it is being engaged and must also if it wishes to use an immediate action or swift action make a reflex save or be unable to use it for that round.

At level 6 the marked foe as long as the fighter is engaged with the foe can be flanked by allies that are adjacent to the fighter or the marked foe or are in the marked foe's threatened area or are no more then 5 feet away from the marked foe. If the marked foe would normally be unable to be flanked or sneak attacked, the allies can each make a dexterity check against the marked foe, if the allies win the check, the marked foe can be flanked for that round by the allies who passed the check.

At level 9 if the fighter has engaged the marked foe for 3 or more consecutive rounds, the fighter can now make a dexterity or intelligence check against that foe, if the fighter wins the fighter can now treat their attacks against the foe as touch attacks.

At level 12 The fighter if engaged with a marked foe for 3 or more consecutive rounds against can now also if the marked foe is using magic/psionics that gives the marked foe a bonus to ac or damage reduction or energy resistance make either a will save as if it was a hostile effect targeted on them or a dexterity check, if they pass, the fighter can as long as they are engaged with the foe bypass the bonuses to ac and damage reduction the effects they passed against give the marked foe with the fighter's attacks.

At Level 15 the fighter only needs to be engaged for 1 round with the marked foe to gain the effects listed at level 9. Additionally if the marked foe wishes to use a move action, it must make a reflex save or be unable to use it for that round.

Martial Points: At level 1 and even odd level after, the fighter gains martial points which can be used during an encounter. The fighter can use a variety of martial abilities listed by spending the martial points required to do so.

The martial points used are regained after each encounter after 5 minutes of rest or noncombat.

A fighter who runs out of martial points in an encounter can force themselves to use the abilities but must each time make a DC 10 Fortitude save that increases by 3 for each additional ability used without the required martial points or take 1d10 non lethal damage from overexertion. This nonlethal damage bypasses any resistances or immunity or anything that that would prevent them from taking it.

Note some abilities have use limits regardless of the fighter having the required points or running out of the martial points.

The martial abilities can not be used with magic or psionics, the fighter can use magic/psionic weapons and armor with the abilities but casting or manifesting does not work with the abilities.

Fighters slowly regain spent martial points at the rate of 1 point per 5 fighter levels (minimum 1 to a max of 5 at level 20) + their constitution bonus if any each round unless the fighter is dying or disabled. If the fighter uses the delay option, the point rate is doubled.

Fighter can also regain martial points if the fighter kills a foe or reduces it to less then 1 hp, this gives the fighter martial points equal to the creatures CR/HD (minimum one), this can not give more points the the fighter's max point total. Foes with an cr of less then 1/2 or that are 4 or more cr lower then the fighter's hd do not give points. Using magic or psionics do not count for killing the foes and regaining points, it must be done with martial combat.

List of Martial Abilities

Inculcation: At level 2 and each even number level after afterwards, the fighter can choose 1 new stratagem to learn. These are abilities or things to help the fighter on or off the battlefield.

All martial abilities now cost 1/2 their normal cost rounded down whether they are normal or boosted with points (but all abilities always cost at least 1 martial point).

Martial GrandMastery: At level 20 the fighter reaches the peak of martial training. All martial abilities now cost 1/3 their normal cost rounded down (but all abilities always cost at least 1 martial point).
