User:Balmz/fighter4/Martial Abilities

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 save against a fighter's martial abilities is DC 10 + 1/2 BAB + strength or dexterity modifier

The fighter can choose which ability score to use when using a martial ability

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 and stress. 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, helpless 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(so no bag of rats). Using magic or psionics do not count for killing the foes and regaining points, it must be done with martial combat.

The martial abilities of a fighter represent their ability to adapt to and foil enemy tactics and defenses, ready themselves, adapt to enemy tactics, actions and change in battle, take advantage in battle of openings or weak spots and focus on a combat situation. The points represent the fighter's stamina, willpower, senses, insight, experience and focus being used.

The fighter can at higher levels improve the abilities by spending more points to boost them and unlock more powerful versions. However the fighter must meet the point requirements by having naturally the points required at their base. An an example is a fighter's regular martial points is 40, they use an improved ability that requires 25 points that normally only needs 10 points, they can use it even if they have less then 25 points as they normally have at least 25 points max, but if a boosted ability required 50 points, they could not use it as it would require the fighter to have a base of at least 50 points normally to use them.
