Guerrilla Fighter (Ex): In addition of being a superb martial artist, Cheshire was trained in guerrilla tactics.

Martial Arts: Cheshire is recognized among the best martial artists and assasins in the world. This grants her several benefits

  • fighter BAB and bonus feats
  • Unarmed damage, flurry of blows and Stun Attack as a monk of her HD
  • Cheshire gains a +5 bonus to attack and damage rolls when fighting unarmed
  • Full defense
  • Evasion and Improved Evasion
  • Uncanny Dodge and Improved Uncanny Dodge
  • Sneak Attack +6d6
  • Opportunist
  • Death Attack (DC 19)
  • Crippling Strike
  • Good fortitude and Reflex saves
  • Medium Will save
  • 8+Intelligence skill points per level

Poison Expert (Ex): Cheshire learned the craft of poison making from the legendary “Spiting Cobra”, Kruen Musenda. His ability at this craft is only surpassed by Poison Ivy. She gains several benefits from this expertise.

  • Poison Use
  • +5 bonus to saves against poison and disease
  • Any poison or disease created by Cheshire has a minimal save DC of 19.
  • Cheshire often coats her fingernails with deadly chemicals and creatures who take damage from her unarmed attacks are also affected by the poison. If a Cheshire successfully deals damage in an unarmed sneak attack or in a critical hit, the save DC to resist the poison is increased by +6.

Cheshire has used several types of toxins through the years, with various effects, including higher DCs, the ability to cause almost every single status condition imaginable, and ones that affect different ability scores.

A Treat Injury check (DC 28) is required to successfully treat Cheshire’s poison without the antidote. A successful opposed Craft (chemical) check against her allows one to create an antidote if none exists.

Sample Poisons:

Deadly: Injury; Fort DC 19; Initial: 1d8 Constitution; Secondary: 2d6 Constitution

Paralizing: Injury; Fort DC 19; Initial 2d6 Dexterity; Secondary: 2d6 Dexterity
