The Tome Of Drow Lore.pdf - RoseRed

You are very well-connected in the political arena and are
able to perform very well in your home city. This feat
must be taken once for every city in which you wish to be
politically active.
Prerequisite: Gather Information 10 ranks
Benefit: You receive a +4 bonus to any skill checks made
while acting as a Lieutenant for a Noble House or other
faction of the drow. This bonus applies only to actions
taken in the Game of Bones.
Press the Attack (General)
You are unwilling to let your enemy leave the battle. If he
tries to step away from you in combat, you may follow him
immediately.
Prerequisite: Base attack bonus +6, Combat Reflexes,
Improved Initiative
Benefit: If one of the enemies in a square you threaten
takes a 5-foot step to get away from you, you may
immediately follow him. This uses up one of your attacks
of opportunity.
Normal: You must wait until your turn to follow an
opponent who leaves melee.
Relentless (General)
You take advantage of every opening your opponent gives
you, punishing him for the slightest mistake in combat.
Prerequisite: Combat Reflexes
Benefit: Any critical threat that you make with a weapon as
part of a successful attack of opportunity is automatically
confirmed without need for a further roll.
Rend the Throat (Drow)
Your teeth have been filed into needle-like fangs and you
have mastered the art of using them as a formidable and
terrifying weapon against your enemies.
Prerequisite: Kanahraun sub-race
Benefit: When you succeed with a grapple attack in melee,
you may make an additional bite attack at your base attack
bonus on your opponent as a free action. The attack deals
d6 damage plus your Strength modifier. If the opponent
is flatfooted or otherwise unable to use his Dexterity
against you, this may be used as a sneak attack. This feat
cannot be used against a foe in heavy armour, as there is no
appropriate target for the attack.
Sacrificial Spell (Metamagic)
You may fulfil part of the experience point cost of your
spells through the sacrifice of another person.
Prerequisite: Craft Lifebinding Item
Benefit: By killing another sentient being in a ritual
sacrifice, you may use your knowledge of lifebinding (see
page 188) to power part of the experience point cost of
spells which require the expenditure of experience points.
A sacrificial spell uses up a spell slot one level higher than
the spell’s actual level.
Silken Step (Drow)
You have learned to move with such grace and care that
you can avoid registering on an opponent’s tremorsense
capability.
Prerequisite: Dex 17, Stealthy
Benefit: When using the Silken Step feat, you may not be
detected by an opponent’s tremorsense ability. Speed is
reduced to one-third normal while using this ability, which
also adds a penalty of –10 to any skill check rolls made.
Actions requiring dramatic movement, such as tumbling,
casting a spell with somatic components or making an
attack automatically result in your immediate detection
by the creature with tremorsense. If you are detected, you
may not ‘hide’ from that creature again by the use of this
