Liber Vampyr

to influence the attitudes of humanoid creatures, as well
as to Disguise checks made to appear as a living creature
(minimum +1).
Paralyzing Strike (Ex): Beginning at 1 st level, a
revenant infiltrator learns how to strike a foe in such a way as
to leave them paralyzed. As a standard action, the revenant
infiltrator can make a single melee attack against a creature.
If the attack hits, it deals damage as normal, and the target
must succeed on a Fortitude save (DC 10 + 1/2 the revenant
infiltrator’s class level + the revenant infiltrator’s Intelligence
modifier) or be paralyzed. The target may make a new saving
throw each round as a full-round action to end the effect, but
all saving throws after the first suffer a -4 penalty. Even if the
target is unable to succeed on any saving throws, the effect
ends automatically after 5 minutes. If the attack misses, the
use of the ability is wasted. Creatures that are not living (such
as constructs or undead), or are immune to critical hits or
precision-based damage, are immune to this ability.
The revenant infiltrator can use this ability once per
day at 1 st level. At 5 th level, and every four levels thereafter, she
can use this ability one additional time per day.
Bonus Feats: At 2 nd level, and every even-numbered
level thereafter, she gains a single vampire feat of her choice
for which she qualifies as a bonus feat.
Evasion (Ex): At 2nd level and higher, a revenant
infiltrator can avoid even magical and unusual attacks
with great agility. If she makes a successful Reflex saving
throw against an attack that normally deals half damage on
a successful save, she instead takes no damage. Evasion can
be used only if the revenant infiltrator is wearing light armor
or no armor. A helpless revenant infiltrator does not gain the
benefit of evasion.
Uncanny Dodge (Ex): Starting at 4th level, a
revenant infiltrator can react to danger before her senses
would normally allow her to do so. She cannot be caught flatfooted,
nor does she lose her Dex bonus to AC if the attacker
is invisible. She still loses her Dexterity bonus to AC if
immobilized. A revenant infiltrator with this ability can still
lose her Dexterity bonus to AC if an opponent successfully
uses the feint action (see Combat) against her.
If a revenant infiltrator already has uncanny dodge
from a different class, she automatically gains improved
uncanny dodge (see below) instead.
Improved Uncanny Dodge (Ex): A revenant
infiltrator of 8th level or higher can no longer be flanked.
This defense denies a rogue the ability to sneak attack the
revenant infiltrator by flanking her, unless the attacker has
at least four more rogue levels than the revenant infiltrator’s
level.
If a character already has uncanny dodge (see above)
from another class, the levels from the classes that grant
uncanny dodge stack to determine the minimum rogue level
required to flank the revenant infiltrator.
Paralysis Master (Ex): Beginning at 20 th level, a
revenant infiltrator can use her paralyzing strike ability with
ease. As long as her target is denied its Dexterity bonus to AC,
or she is flanking her target, she can use her paralyzing strike
class feature without expending a daily use of that ability.
Additionally, the penalty that victims of her paralyzing strike
ability suffer on subsequent saving throws to end the effect
increases to -8.
Lose Weakness: At 3 rd level, and every four levels
thereafter, a revenant infiltrator may choose a single lesser
weakness that she gained as a result of gaining the revenant
template, and lose it, forever freeing herself of that particular
weakness. Beginning at 15 th level, she can choose to lose a
single greater weakness, rather than a single lesser weakness,
each time that she gains this ability. The revenant cannot lose
the blood dependency or sunlight vulnerability weaknesses in
this way.
Revenant Vigor (Su): Beginning at 3 rd level, a
revenant infiltrator is better able to resist effects that use
her undead nature as a weakness, and she gains a +1 bonus
on saving throws made to against spells or abilities that
specifically affect undead (such as control undead, undeath to
death, or a cleric’s channel energy class feature). Further, he
well-developed sense of self-preservation makes it easier for
her to dodge the most devastating attacks, and she also gains
a +1 dodge bonus to AC against attacks that specifically deal
extra damage or have extra effects against undead creatures
(such as the attack of a paladin using the smite evil class
feature, or an attack made with a disrupting weapon). At 6 th
level, and every three levels thereafter, these bonuses increase
by an additional +1 (to a maximum of +6 at 18 th level).
