Black Karma
Your lifeforce and soul has been tainted by evil. This could be the result of fiends within your parentage, a great evil done in a previous life, or other unfortunate circumstance. Whether to embrace or spurn your heritage is a choice you must make.
Prerequisite: Humanoid type
Effect: You are naturally predisposed to evil. You take a –2 penalty against [Compulsion] effect or against other flaws which would make you do evil acts, and these acts are not considered against your nature due to ethical or moral reasons (but may be judged to be so based on other factors). Additionally the effect of this flaw change based on your current alignment:
- If you are good-aligned, you are detected as an evil creature rather than a creature of your actual alignment. You are treated as an evil-aligned creature for the purposes of effects, such as smite evil, which deals additional damage to evil creatures, although the bonus damage is halved. You are treated as non-good for the purpose of any aura class feature you possess.
- If you are neutral-aligned, you are detected as an evil creature rather than a creature of your actual alignment. You are treated as an evil-aligned creature for the purposes of effects, such as smite evil, which deals additional damage to evil creatures. You are treated as evil for the purpose of any aura class feature you possess.
- If you are evil-aligned, you gain an aura of evil as a cleric of your level. You are dealt additional damage by effects such as smite evil as if you were an evil outsider. If you gain an aura, count your hit dice as four higher to determine how strong your aura of evil is.
Benefit: A Moderate bonus feat or lower for which you meet the prerequisites.
