Wildcat Stalker
“This cat is subtle and fierce, just like its master.”
Prerequisites: Ranger, Beast Mastery class feature,
beast companion (cat)
Independence, courage, and quickness of mind and
body—the cat symbolizes all of these traits. It prefers
to watch the world carefully from a good vantage
before acting decisively. Normally calm and fastidiously
clean, a feline loves to play but fights fearlessly
when it must. It is a stealthy hunter that specializes
in ambushes and deadly rushes, finishing its prey as
quickly as possible. When surrounded by friends, the
cat is industrious and protective, sharing what it has.
You see yourself in the cat, or a little of the cat in
yourself. You too are a careful and swift hunter, with
catlike grace and bravery. Surprise and swift attacks
are your specialty, and few compare to you in your
self-sufficiency.
Maybe that’s why you chose a wild cat as a companion
(or perhaps it was the cat that picked you).
You have developed your feline qualities, growing
in awareness, slyness, and sneakiness. Your beast
companion has become a strong warrior at your side,
using its predatory skills to bring down your common
adversaries as if they were game.
As word of your deeds spreads, your cat’s fame
grows with yours. It has become an emblem that
identifies you among those you meet, affect, and
oppose. When your story is done, your cat will stand
beside you in mythic chronicles, as if you and it
were one.

Prowling Action (11th Level): When you spend
an action point to take an extra action, you also gain
concealment until the end of your next turn.
Cat’s Quarry (16th Level): When you or your
