All Viz-Jaq'taar levels stack with Monk class levels for determining her Monk Weapon damage, her Atman, and her Strikes. This combined level is known as her "effective Monk level". This does not advance any other class features that additional Monk levels would have granted her, including additional Fast Movement. | All Viz-Jaq'taar levels stack with Monk class levels for determining her Monk Weapon damage, her Atman, and her Strikes.

| + | The Viz-Jaq'taar excels at stalking spellcasters, and so needs to be able to handle their spells. The tenets of the Order strictly forbid the Mage Slayers from gaining any magic of their own, to eliminate the possibility of corruption, and instead they hone their minds and bodies to the task. Whenever she recognizes a spell being cast through use of her Spellcraft skill, she may, as an Immediate Action, expend an number of Atman equal to half the Spell's level (rounded up) to counterspell it as if she had used a Dispel effect. Her caster level for the opposed check is her effective Monk level + 5, and she has no cap on this check. | ||

| + | The Viz-Jaq'taar may also replace her Intelligence modifier with her Wisdom modifier on Spellcraft checks, if doing so would be beneficial to her. | ||

All Viz-Jaq'taar are Psionic; they have learned the Atman that Monks use are very similar to the Power Points used by Manifesters, and though she gains no Power Points, she nonetheless can be a Psionic character, and qualifies for anything that requires a Power Point reserve pool no larger than 1 Power Point. She does not actually have any Power Points to expend, however. Because she is a Psionic character, a Viz-Jaq'taar may achieve Psionic Focus as normal. Maintaining or expending Psionic Focus has several effects on her class features, as described below. | All Viz-Jaq'taar are Psionic; they have learned the Atman that Monks use are very similar to the Power Points used by Manifesters, and though she gains no Power Points, she nonetheless can be a Psionic character, and qualifies for anything that requires a Power Point reserve pool no larger than 1 Power Point.
