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 excels at stalking spellcasters, and so needs to be able to handle their spells.
