inflexible language. Faedic is a very nature-oriented tongue; the language has hundreds of words to describe a flower or color degree. Lycanthus: The universal language of the kavbroed, this is a difficult tongue for non-kav to master. It involves combining animalistic sounds, which are heavily accented by a kav’s type (i.e., werewolf, wereraven, etc.), with more human-sounding speech. Merithian: Although this language is no longer spoken on Dracos, scholars have deciphered its meaning. Those who plunder tombs would find this language useful. The language is taught in Askalan’s best colleges. Naval Code: An ancient alphabet code with roots in the great elven navies, naval code has since been modified to Common alphabet and is ubiquitous throughout the human kingdoms. The naval code substitutes long and short pulses of light for leers, using a signal lantern or heliograph for transmission. The range of communication by naval code is impressive. A signal lantern reliably communicates up to 3 miles during the day, 10 miles at night or in overcast conditions. A heliograph disk can transmit messages over the horizon by projecting light against the boom of clouds. Weather conditions limit its use, but reliable communication at 20 or more miles is not uncommon. Old Rilgoth (Old Tongue): This nearly dead tongue of the ancient and fallen Rilgoth Empire is the musical language of scholars, learned nobility, and academicians. The wrien alphabet contains 64 characters, each of which is harshly angular. Anyone who speaks Old Rilgoth may aempt to speak or read its modern descendant, Rilgoth, with a successful DC 25 Intelligence check. Rilgoth: Rilgoth descended from its parent tongue, Old Rilgoth, into a harsh, brutal sounding language. The wrien alphabet contains only 31 symbols, most of which have come to represent entire words or concepts, much as do runes, rather than individual characters. Anyone who speaks Rilgoth may aempt to speak or read its predecessor, Old Rilgoth, with a successful DC 25 Intelligence check. Semaphore: The semaphore flag code is an alphabet signaling system based on the waving of a pair of hand-held flags in a This section introduces new General and Item Creation feats, as well as additions and modifications to standard feats from the PHB. It also adds a new class of feats usable only by lycanthropes. Kav Feats These are feats available only to kav, granting them extra abilities that tap the properties of their mixed nature. Kav feats are available to kavraen and kavbroed. Kav feats and the Lycanthrope feats from Paradigm Concepts’ Slaves of the Moon are interchangeable. Amphibious Endurance (General) As a native of the water, you have steeled your body to withstand the rigors of life on land longer than is normal. Prerequisite: Aquatic subtype. Benefit: You can survive out of water for two hours per point of your Constitution score, before the effects of suffocation begin. Normal: Water-breathing creatures refer to their racial description to determine how long they may normally stay on land before suffocating. Animal Intuition (Kav) You have a preternatural sense for danger. Benefit: You gain a +2 bonus to initiative checks and Reflex saves. Chapter Ten: Skills & Feats 107 New Feats Table 10–1: <strong>SpirosBlaak</strong> Languages Language Typical Speakers Alphabet Bakad Bakad – Faedic Faedians Faedic symbols (no real alphabet) Lycanthus Kavbroed Lycanthus Merithian None (dead language) Merithian Old Rilgoth The educated Old Rilgoth (Old Tongue) and nobility Naval Code — Common Rilgoth Rilgoth barbarians Rilgoth Semaphore — Common particular paern. It can be used to communicate in any language based on the Common alphabet, although variants may exist for other alphabets. The range of this communication is limited to lineof-sight, but transmission is relatively swi: a full sentence can be communicated with a full-round action. Semaphore is in common use by merchant seamen, who frequently maintain a signal officer on longer voyages. The code is widely disparaged by pirates, whose idea of signaling with a flag is hoisting the skull-and-crossbones. Using Skills by Native Region (Optional Rule) Some skills gain a bonus when used within a character’s native region: the nation, city, or territory of his birth and/or upbringing, as outlined in the character’s background. Whenever within this region (or, in some cases, when dealing with people from that region), the character gains a +1 or +2 bonus (GM’s discretion, depending on familiarity) to his skill checks with the following: Diplomacy, Gather Information, Knowledge (history), Knowledge (nature), Knowledge (religion), Knowledge (streetwise), Knowledge (tactics), and Survival. Arcane Warrior (General) You are adapted to harnessing mystic energies while wearing armor. Prerequisites: Base aack bonus +1, Armor Proficiency (any) Benefit: While wearing armor with which you are proficient, you reduce by 10% (to a minimum of 5%) the armor’s chance of spell failure for spells with somatic components. Armored Shapechange (Light) (Kav) You can change shapes without ruining your armor. As you alter in a new form, you release straps, untie laces, and shed your armor as part of your transformation. Benefit: When you change into a form larger than your current one, you can remove any light armor you wear as a swi action (see page 100). You can only take your armor off in this manner if you change shape; you cannot remove it this quickly under other conditions. Armored Shapechange (Medium) (Kav) Your experience in wearing heavier armor and many hours of practice have taught you how to change shape without wrecking your armor. Prerequisite: Armored Shapechange (light). Benefit: This feat functions just like Armored Shapechange (light), except you can also remove medium armor as a free action while changing shape.
108 Table 10–2: Feats General Feats Armor Prowess (General) You are nimble and proficient under the encumbrance of armor. Prerequisites: Str 13, Armor Proficiency (heavy). Benefit: Wearing medium or heavy armor does not lower your base speed.

Furthermore, reduce any armor check penalties by 1 (to a minimum of –1).
