Gideon

I am currently a half-opossum, half-human (used to just be an awesome opossum) that has to "restore the balance" as ordered by the High Druid, Ull.

Class Features

Momentum

Many of the rogue’s powers function only when the rogue has momentum.

  • You gain momentum by hitting an enemy with an attack.
  • You lose momentum when you are hit by an attack.


The default is that you can use momentum powers without losing momentum, but a few powers specify that you must spend your momentum to use them. You don’t have to use attacks that require momentum against the foe you hit to gain that momentum.

Momentum powers that do not require you to spend your momentum are generally classified as interrupt actions. You can only use one interrupt action a round, which keeps your momentum powers from dominating the battle.

Sneak Attack

Once per round when you make a rogue melee weapon attack against an enemy engaged with one or more of your allies, you can deal +1d8 (Improved Sneak attack) damage if your attack hits.

Trap Sense

Even rogues whose backgrounds don’t have anything to do with noticing, avoiding, or disarming traps have a unique knack for dealing with traps.

If a rogue’s skill check involving a trap is a natural even failure, the rogue can reroll the skill check once. If a trap’s attack roll against a rogue is a natural odd roll, the rogue can force the trap to reroll the attack once.

Class Talents

Improved Sneak Attack

Your Sneak Attack damage is better than other rogues. Use 1d8 instead of 1d6.

Swashbuckle

Once per battle as a quick action, you can spend your momentum to pull off a daring stunt the likes of which others could scarcely conceive. You may make an attack as part of the stunt, but you’ll need to roll normally for the attack. This is an improvisational talent.

As a swashbuckler, you do not need a difficult skill check to pull the stunt off.

Tumble

You gain a +5 bonus to disengage checks. In addition, while you are moving, if an enemy moves to intercept you, you can make one disengage roll per intercepting enemy as a free action to avoid that enemy, but you must stop the first time you fail any of those disengage checks.

Feats

Prehensile Tail (Racial): Adventurer

When you hit on a even number of 10 or less, gain a basic attack with your tail once per battle.

Improved Sneak Attack (Class Talent): Adventurer

Once per day as a free action, you can add your Sneak Attack damage to any hit against one target that would not otherwise have qualified for the damage.

Deflection (Power): Adventurer

The power also triggers on a ranged attack against AC.
