| + | ''Benefit:'' The Defender's Gambit feat allows the following options, with enough prowess expenditure: | ||
| - | '' | + | ''Marked Target'' (X prowess): |
| - | '' | + | ''Guardianship'' (X prowess): When an ally of yours is targeted by a melee attack (including a touch spell that must make an attack roll), you may move up to 5' into your ally's square. If you do so, move your ally 5' in any direction, as if they had taken a 5' step. The attacker must treat you as the target of the attack or effect, making attack rolls and checks against you instead of your ally. However, he makes any attack rolls against your touch AC. If his attack roll hits your touch AC but not your full AC, the attack bounces off harmlessly. If it hits both AC values, or if the original attack is a touch attack, you are affected as if you were the original target. |
| - | + | Should the attack miss you completely, your opponent makes a second attack roll at the original target; however, you provide soft cover when determining the results of such attacks (even if the original attack is not one that typically allows for soft cover). | |
| - | + | If your attacker willingly fails the attack roll against you, they also forfeit their ability to make a follow-up attack roll on the ally you are protecting. | |
| + | |||
| + | For each two abilities granted to you by this feat, increase the range you may move by 5' and increase the AC bonus provided by your soft cover when using this ability by 1. | ||
| - | + | ''Spell-Shield'' (X prowess): When a line, burst, emanation, or cone affect includes you within it, you may alter its shape to protect your allies. You willingly forgo your normal saving throw (if any) and your spell resistance (if any). You take the affect's full effects, but are treated as a wall or other obstructive object for the purposes of determining the spell's area. You create a cone originating in your square and directed immediately away from the origin of the triggering effect. Creatures in this area are not affected by the triggering effect. The size of this cone is determined by the number of abilities you are granted by this feat: the cone begins at 15' and increases by 5' per ability granted. | |
''Interposition'' (X prowess): When an ally of yours is targeted by a ranged attack (including a spell that must make an attack roll), you may move up to 5' into an attacker's line of sight or line of effect as an immediate action, such that your new position would rest on the attacker's line of sight or line of effect upon your ally. If you do, the attacker must treat you as the target of the attack or effect, making attack rolls and checks against you instead of your ally. However, he makes any attack rolls against your touch AC. If his attack roll hits your touch AC but not your full AC, the attack bounces off harmlessly.
