General Rules: Feats - Blood of Þunor

Blood of Þunor [Human, Khülen, Rage]
You are distantly related to Þunor. While Þunor and Syfa’s immediate offspring develop a host of powers and abilities, the effects upon your blood are much more subtle.
    Prerequisites: Human or Khülen, ability to rage.
    Benefit: When you rage, you gain a pool of 2 bonus damage points per character level, to be added to the damage of any successful melee attack made during your rage.

This bonus damage is not multiplied on a critical hit. Undesignated bonus damage is lost when your rage ends. You must declare the addition of bonus damage after you hit, but before damage is rolled.

You are descended from an adventurous explorer. You are quick to take action and react quickly to changing conditions in combat.
    Prerequisite: Human.
    Benefit: When you ready an action in combat, you can choose to take that action at any time, not just when the condition you specify occurs. (In effect, this allows you to take a move action and then delay your remaining action).

General Rules: Feats - Favored Destiny

Favored Destiny [Human] (adapted from Path of Shadow)
You seem to escape death just when it seems your luck has run out.
    Prerequisites: Human, Dexterity 13+, Lucky Stars.
    Benefit: Once per week, you can completely avoid what would otherwise be lethal damage (from any source). To do so requires a successful Reflex saving throw (DC = the standard difficulty for the spell or effect (if applicable), or the damage of the attack). A failed save negates the possibility of evading the blow through other special abilities or saving for half damage. A rogue's evasion ability does not apply to Favored Destiny.
