Eldritch Scoundrel Abilities
Sneak Attack
If a character can catch an opponent when he is unable to defend himself effectively from her attack, she can strike a vital spot for extra damage.The character's attack deals extra damage anytime her target would be denied a Dexterity bonus to AC (whether the target actually has a Dexterity bonus or not), Or when the character flanks her target. This extra damage is I d6 and increases by Id6 at later levels. This additional damage is precision damage and is not multiplied on a critical hit. The character must be able to see the target well enough to pick out a vital spot and must be able to reach such a spot.
Master Strike
Upon reaching 20th level, a rogue becomes incredibly deadly when dealing sneak attack damage. Each time the rogue deals sneak attack damage, she can slay the target. The target receives a Fortitude save to negate the death effect. The DC of this save is equal to 10 + 1/2 the rogue's level + the rogue's Dexterity modifier. Once a creature has been the target Of a master strike, regardless Of whether or not the save is made, that creature is immune to that rogue's master strike for 24hours.
Weapon Finesse (Class Feature)
With a light weapon, elven curve blade, estoc, or rapier made for a creature of your size category, you may use your Dexterity modifier instead of your Strength modifier on attack rolls.
Rogue Talent
As a rogue gains experience, she learns a number of talents that aid her and confound her foes. Starting at 2nd level, a rogue gains one rogue talent. She gains an additional rogue talent for every 2 levels of rogue attained after 2nd level. A rogue cannot select an individual talent more than once.
Trapfinding
A rogue adds 1/2 her level on Perception checks.
Danger Sense
At 3rd level, a rogue gains a +1 bonus on Reflex saves to avoid traps and a +1 dodge bonus to AC against attacks made by traps. These bonuses increase by 1 every 3 rogue levels thereafter (to a maximum of +6 at 18th level).
Cantrips
Eldritch scoundrels can cast a number of cantrips, or Clevel spells. These spells are cast like any other spell, but they are not expended when cast and may be used again..
Scribe scrolls
Allows you to craft scrolls during camping.
Eldritch Scoundrel (Class Feature)
Rogues are proficient with all simple weapons, plus the hand crossbow, rapier, shortsword, and shortbow. An eldritch scoundrel is not proficient with any armor or shields. Armor sometimes interferes with an eldritch scoundrel's gestures, which Can Cause her spells with somatic components to fail.
Evasion
A character can avoid even magical and unusual attacks with great agility. If a character makes a successful Reflex saving throw against an attack that normally deals half damage on a successful save, he instead takes no damage. A helpless character does not gain the benefit of evasion.
Debilitating Injury
At 4th level, whenever a rogue deals sneak attack damage to a foe, she can also debilitate the target of her attack, causing it to take a penalty for 1 round (this is in addition to any penalty caused by a rogue talent or Other special ability). The rogue can choose to apply any one of the following penalties when the damage is dealt. Bewildered: The target becomes bewildered, taking a —2 penalty to AC. The target takes an additional —2 penalty to AC against all attacks made by the rogue. At 10th level and 16th level, the penalty to AC against attacks made by the rogue increases by -2 (to a total maximum of -8). Disoriented: The target takes a —2 penalty on attack rolls. In addition, the target takes an additional -2 penalty on all attack rolls it makes against the rogue. At 10th level and 16th level, the penalty on attack rolls made against the rogue increases by -2 (to a total maximum of -8). Hampered: All of the target's speeds are reduced by half (to a minimum of 5 feet). These penalties do not stack with themselves, but additional attacks that deal sneak attack damage extend the duration by 1 round. A creature cannot suffer from more than one penalty from this ability at a time. If a new penalty is applied, the old penalty immediately ends. Any form Of healing applied to a target suffering from one of these penalties also removes the penalty.
Advanced Talents
After 10th level, a character can choose one of the advanced rogue talents in place of a rogue talent.
Finesse Training
At 1st level, a rogue gains Weapon Finesse as a bonus feat. In addition, starting at 3rd level, she can select any one type of weapon that can be used with Weapon Finesse (such as rapiers or daggers). Once this choice is made, it cannot be changed. Whenever she makes a successful melee attack with the selected weapon, she adds her Dexterity modifier instead of her Strength modifier to the damage roll. If any effect would prevent the rogue from adding her Strength modifier to the damage roll, she does not add her Dexterity modifier. The rogue can select a second weapon at I Ith level and a third at 19th level.
