====Class Features====

All of the following are class features of the Chameleon.

'''Weapon and Armor Proficiency:''' Chameleons are proficient with all simple weapons and with the talenta tangat, kukri, short sword, rapier, longbow, all monk speicalty weapons and the hand crossbow.

'''{{Anchor|Permanent Disguise}}:''' Chameleon's gain there class level +3 as a bonus to the Disguise skill.

'''{{Anchor|Sneak Attack}} ([[SRD:Special Abilities Overview#Extraordinary|Ex]]):''' If a chameleon can catch an opponent when he is unable to defend himself effectively from her attack, she can strike a vital spot for extra damage.

The chameleon's attack deals extra damage any time her target would be denied a Dexterity bonus to AC (whether the target actually has a Dexterity bonus or not), or when the chameleon flanks her target. This extra damage is 1d6 at 1st level, and it increases by 1d6 every two chameleon levels thereafter. Should the chameleon score a critical hit with a sneak attack, this extra damage is not multiplied.

Ranged attacks can count as sneak attacks only if the target is within 30 feet.

With a sap (blackjack) or an unarmed strike, a chameleon can make a sneak attack that deals nonlethal damage instead of lethal damage. She cannot use a weapon that deals lethal damage to deal nonlethal damage in a sneak attack, not even with the usual –4 penalty.

A chameleon can sneak attack only living creatures with discernible anatomies—undead, constructs, oozes, plants, and incorporeal creatures lack vital areas to attack. Any creature that is immune to critical hits is not vulnerable to sneak attacks. The chameleon must be able to see the target well enough to pick out a vital spot and must be able to reach such a spot. A chameleon cannot sneak attack while striking a creature with concealment or striking the limbs of a creature whose vitals are beyond reach. 

At level 20 all sneak attack damage dice increase to d8.
