# Feats
Characters choose a feat at 1st level, and at every subsequent level.
Feats appear in three tiers: Adventurer Tier Feats, Champion Tier Feats, and Epic Tier Feats. Adventurer Tier Feats are available to any character between level 1 and level 10. Champion Tier:s are available starting at level 5. Epic Tier Feats are available starting at level 8.
# Feats per Level
| Level | Adv. # | Cham. # | Epic # |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1 | ||
| 2 | 2 | ||
| 3 | 3 | ||
| 4 | 4 | ||
| 5 | 4 | 1 | |
| 6 | 4 | 2 | |
| 7 | 4 | 3 | |
| 8 | 4 | 3 | 1 |
| 9 | 4 | 3 | 2 |
| 10 | 4 | 3 | 3 |
Since humans start with an additional feat at 1st level, add one to the number of adventurer tier feat’s humans possess all the way up the chart.
Most of the feats in the game are attached to specific class talents, attacks, and spells. If a feat is attached to a talent, power, or spell, you must have the talent, power, or spell in order to choose the feat. When there is more than one feat attached to a specific talent or power, you have to choose the lower tier feats before you pick up the higher tier feats.
# General Feats
These are general feats available to any character. A character can’t take a specific feat more than once. A few general feats only have adventurer-tier versions; others also have champion- and epic-tier versions that can be added later in your career.
# Skilled
# Adventurer Tier
Add a total of 2 points to skills you already have, or choose 2 points of new skills that make sense for your character. You still can’t go over the 5-point-per-skill maximum.
# Champion Tier
Add a total of 3 points to skills you already have, or choose 3 points of new skills that make sense for your character. You still can’t go over the 5-point-per-skill maximum.
# Epic Tier
Add a total of 2 points to skills you already have, or choose 2 points of new skills that make sense for your character. These points can take one of your skills over 5, to a maximum of 7.
# Improved Initiative
# Epic Tier
Gain a +6 bonus to Initiative checks.
# Linguist
# Adventurer Tier
This feat allows you to speak enough of the standard humanoid languages to comprehend enough of what most other humanoids are saying or screaming during battle. You are not fluent in all these languages, no one will mistake you for a native speaker, and your vocabulary is adventurer-centric (heavy on words connected to danger rather than philosophy or emotions).
You can also read enough to get by in all these languages.
# Champion Tier
You can speak, read, and write all the humanoid languages fluently. Stranger languages are no problem for you either. If someone is speaking it, you can figure it out.
# Precise Shot
# Adventurer Tier
When your ranged attack targets an enemy who is engaged with an ally, you have no chance of hitting that ally.
# Rapid Reload
# Adventurer Tier

# Ritual Casting
# Adventurer Tier
You can cast any spells you know as rituals. Classes that are already ritual casters (cleric, wizard) don’t need this feat. (See Rituals for ritual casting rules.)
# Skill Escalation

Twice per full recovery, you can add the escalation die to one of your skill checks. Choose after you roll the check.
# Strong Recovery

# Athletic

When you make a skill check based on Strength, Dexterity, or Constitution, you can reroll a natural 2 on the d20 roll and take the second result instead.
# Bribery
# Adventurer Tier
# Bribery
Everybody has a price, and you know it intuitively. Before making a skill check to influence an NPC, you can check with the GM what sum of money, item, service or favor that NPC would take to be more favorable. If you can offer it, reduce the difficulty of the check by one step (-5).
# Charge
# Adventurer Tier
Once per battle, you can move to engage a nearby enemy as part of a melee attack. When you do, enemies other than the target of your attack have advantage on attack rolls against you until the start of your next turn.

# Epic Tier
When you charge, you cannot be intercepted.
# Cling to Life

# Diligent
# Adventurer Tier

# Expertise
# Adventurer Tier
When you beat a skill check by 5 points or more, you get a result as if you had beaten a skill check that is a difficulty step harder. The GM should allow you to narrate that additional effect accordingly.
# Exploration Leader
# Adventurer Tier
When you succeed on a skill check to overcome a physical obstacle, like climbing a wall, jumping across a chasm, or swimming across a river, your allies gain a +3 bonus to their checks to overcome the same obstacle this scene.

At champion tier, upgrade the item to champion tier, and at 8th level, to epic tier.

# Improvised Weapon Proficiency
# Adventurer Tier
No matter what situation you’re in, you can pretty much always grab something to fight with. Tell the GM about an item nearby that makes sense for the location you are in. It is there. The GM decides the appropriate weapon category. For example, a barstool would be a two-handed simple weapon (d6), a hot fire poker a one-handed martial weapon (d8), and so on. You fight with the item as if it was a proper weapon of that type, using the attack penalty (if any) as per your class.
# Minor Magic

Learn one cantrip from the wizard list (Core Book p. 147) per point of Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma modifier (whichever is highest). You can cast one cantrip per battle, or once every 5 minutes.
# Monster Lore
# Adventurer Tier
Once per battle, you can ask the GM one question about a creature’s mechanics that they will answer truthfully, such as “Is its PD or MD higher?”, “Does it have resistances or vulnerabilities?”, or “What type of element are its attacks?” The GM can provide a rough description instead of specific numbers.

# Unusual Implement

# Adventurer Tier
Choose a magic item type that your class normally can’t use as an implement. For example, if your bard casts their spells through dancing, you might pick boots. You can use that type of item as a spellcasting implement, i.e. you gain a +1 bonus to attack and damage with your spells per tier. You can still only get that bonus from one implement at a time.
# Unusual Training
Requires: A class feature or talent that gives you access to spells or powers of a class other than your own
