Reactive Parry [Fighter]
Prerequisites: Combat Expertise, BAB +3Benefit: Once per round, when you are subject to a melee attack of any sort made by a creature within two size categories of you, you can attempt to parry the attack. After the foe has made their attack roll, but before you know whether it hit or not, you may expend one attack of opportunity to make an opposed attack roll. You take a -2 penalty for each size category your foe is larger or smaller than you, and foes more than two size categories of you either strike with too much for (if larger) or speed (if smaller) for you to effectively parry their attacks. If you win the opposed roll, then the opponent's attack has no effect. If you lose, you are treated as flat-footed against the attack
If you use the total defense action with this feat, you may instead make a number of parry attempts equal to the number of attacks of opportunity you could normally make (but only one parry attempt per attack).
Special: A Fighter may take Reactive Parry as one of her Fighter bonus feats.
