Feats

Feats are a staple of the Pathfinder® Roleplaying Game.

In Play Manga d20, they hold much the same role and overall power level. Any feat available in another supplement should be as balanced here as it would be in a traditional game.

Gaining Feats: Every character gains 1 feat at 1st level, plus an additional feat at every odd level thereafter. These are in addition to the feats gained as a race or class. In addition, point-based characters can purchase the bonus feats attribute.

Race Feats: When building a race, a flexible bonus feat is worth 4 points, while a static bonus feat is worth 2.

Class Feats: Classes that gain static feats at certain levels pay 1 point fewer for them unless they ignore another feat prerequisite. See the bonus feat attribute for more information.
