A Noble, the upper crust of the world with great influences on society, they tend to not fight much as they have servants for these things. They are in ways a lot like bards but instead of performing they use their influence, power and money do their fighting.
Noble Performance – A Noble is trained to use the Perform skill to create effects on those around him, including himself if desired. He can use this ability for a number of rounds per day equal to 4 + his Charisma modifier. At each level after 1st a Noble can use Noble Performance for 2 additional rounds per day. Each round, the Noble can produce any one of the types of Noble Performance that he has mastered, as indicated by his level.
Starting a Noble Performance is a standard action, but it can be maintained each round as a free action. Changing a Noble Performance from one effect to another requires the Noble to stop the previous performance and start a new one as a standard action. A Noble Performance cannot be disrupted, but it ends immediately if the Noble is killed, paralyzed, stunned, knocked unconscious, or otherwise prevented from taking a free action to maintain it each round. A Noble cannot have more than one Noble Performance in effect at one time.
At 7th level, a Noble can start a Noble Performance as a move action instead of a standard action.
At 13th level, a Noble can start a Noble Performance as a swift action. Each Noble Performance has audible components, visual components, or both. If a Noble Performance has audible components, the targets must be able to hear the Noble for the performance to have any effect, and such performances are language dependent. A deaf Noble has a 20% chance to fail when attempting to use a Noble Performance with an audible component. If he fails this check, the attempt still counts against his daily limit. Deaf creatures are immune to Noble Performances with audible components. If a Noble Performance has a visual component, the targets must have line of sight to the Noble for the performance to have any effect. A blind Noble has a 50% chance to fail when attempting to use a Noble Performance with a visual component. If he fails this check, the attempt still counts against his daily limit. Blind creatures are immune to Noble Performances with visual components,
Fascinate – At 1st level, a Noble can use his performance to cause one or more creatures to become fascinated with him. Each creature to be fascinated must be within 90 feet, able to see and hear the Noble, and capable of paying attention to him. The bard must also be able to see the creatures affected. The distraction of a nearby combat, or other dangers prevents this ability from working. For every three levels the Noble has attained beyond 1st, he can target one additional creature with this ability. Each creature within range receives a Will save (DC 10 + 1/2 the Noble’s level + the Noble’s Cha modifier) to negate the effect. If a creature’s saving throw succeeds, the Noble cannot attempt to fascinate that creature again for 24 hours. If it’s saving throw fails, the creature sits quietly and observes the performance for as long as the bard continues to maintain it. While fascinated, a target takes a –4 penalty on all skill checks made as reactions, such as Notice checks. Any potential threat to the target allows the target to make a new saving throw against the effect. Any obvious threat, such as someone drawing a weapon, casting a spell, or aiming a weapon at the target, automatically breaks the effect. Fascinate is an enchantment (compulsion), mind-affecting ability. Fascinate relies on audible and visual components in order to function.
Inspire Courage – A 1st-level Noble can use his performance to inspire courage in his allies (including himself), bolstering them against fear and improving their combat abilities. To be affected, an ally must be able to perceive the Noble’s performance. An affected ally receives a +1 morale bonus on saving throws against charm and fear effects and a +1 competence bonus on attack and weapon damage rolls. At 8th level, and every six bard levels there-after, this bonus increases by +1, to a maximum of +4 at 20th level. Inspire courage is a mind-affecting ability. Inspire courage can use audible or visual components. The Noble must choose which component to use when starting his performance.
Recognition – At 1st level and every level thereafter, Nobles can use their reputation to give bonuses to Diplomacy checks. A Noble can use their reputation bonus to influence the way he acts in social arguments, The higher the reputation the stronger their influence on people they approach in a diplomatic way.
Inspire Competence – A bard of 3rd level or higher can use his performance to help an ally succeed at a task. That ally must be within 30 feet and be able to hear the Noble. The ally gets a +5 competence bonus on skill checks with a particular skill as long as she continues to hear the Noble’s performance. This bonus increases by +5 for every four levels the Noble has attained beyond 3rd (+10 at 7th, +15 at 11th, +20 at 15th, and +25 at 19th). Certain uses of this ability are infeasible, such as Stealth, and may be disallowed at the GM’s discretion. A Noble can’t inspire competence in himself. Inspire competence relies on audible components.
Line of credit – At 4th level and every Level there after Nobles may rely on a line of credit. This allows the Noble to purchase food, items or even transportation when they don’t have money on hand, This only works in areas that can be influenced as Neutral or Good relation to the Nobles home, Hostile Territories will not provide such an offer, it is up the GM how much and when the purchases can be held off before this function is cut off and the Family may take more drastic actions (i.e. sending collectors after the character) the amount the Noble is able to take is on average (10,000 x the Noble’s Level +Reputation)
Leadership – At Level 5 a Noble gains the Benefit of the Feat Leadership for free, granting them ether a powerful Cohort or several weak Followers, For more on this feat see the chapter on Feats.
Impressive Argument – At level 6 and every level there after a Noble can expel a use of their Noble Performance to cause a target to make a Will Save (DC 10 +½ nobles class level + CHA mod) command Fascinated targets. That target (if normally Hostile will ether flee or surrender, if not Hostile they will be inspired to give aid in combat to the Noble)
Inspire Greatness – At Level 9 and every level thereafter, a Noble can use a use of their Noble Performance granting 2 extra hit die, +2 to hit, and +1 to Resistance saves to any ally within 30ft
Inspirational Leader – At level 12 and every level there after the Noble’s using Noble Performance effect double the bonuses on Cohorts

This defense denies a rogue the ability to sneak attack the Bounty Hunter by flanking her, unless the attacker has at least four more rogue levels than the target has Bounty Hunter levels. If a character already has uncanny dodge (see above) from another class, the levels from the classes that grant uncanny dodge stack to determine the minimum rogue level required to flank the character.
Swift Tracker – Beginning at 8th level, a Bounty Hunter can move at her normal speed while using Survival to follow tracks without taking the normal –10 penalty. She takes only a –30 penalty (instead of the normal –60) when moving at up to twice normal speed while tracking.
Evasion – At 9th level or higher, a Bounty Hunter can avoid damage from many area-effect attacks. If a Bounty Hunter makes a successful Reflex saving throw against an attack that normally deals half damage on a successful save, he instead takes no damage. Evasion can be used only if a Bounty Hunter is wearing light armor or no armor. A helpless Bounty Hunter does not gain the benefit of evasion.
Fast Movement – At 12th level and higher, The Bounty Hunter’s land speed is faster than the norm for her race by +10 feet. This benefit applies only when she is wearing no armor, light armor, or medium armor, and not carrying a heavy load. Apply this bonus before modifying the barbarian’s speed because of any load carried or armor worn. This bonus stacks with any other bonuses to the Bounty Hunter’s land speed.

Untold wonders and secrets exist for those skillful enough to discover them. Through cleverness, talent, and Abilities, these cunning few unravel the wiles of the world, becoming adept in the arts of persuasion, manipulation, and inspiration. Typically masters of one or many forms of artistry, bards possess an uncanny ability to know more than they should and use what they learn to keep themselves and their allies ever one step ahead of danger. Bards are quick-witted and captivating, and their skills might lead them down many paths, be they gamblers or jacks-of-all-trades, scholars or performers, leaders or scoundrels, or even all of the above. For bards, every day brings its own opportunities, adventures, and challenges, and only by bucking the odds, knowing the most, and being the best might they claim the treasures of each.
Role: Bards capably confuse and confound their foes while inspiring their allies to ever-greater daring. While accomplished with both weapons and Abilities, the true strength of bards lies outside melee, where they can support their companions and undermine their foes without fear of interruptions to their performances.
Bardic Knowledge – A bard adds half his class level (minimum 1) to all Knowledge skill checks and may make all Knowledge skill checks untrained.
Bardic Music – A bard is trained to use the Perform skill to create effects on those around him, including himself if desired. He can use this ability for a number of rounds per day equal to 4 + his Charisma modifier. At each level after 1st a bard can use bardic performance for 2 additional rounds per day. Each round, the bard can produce any one of the types of bardic performance that he has mastered, as indicated by his level.
Starting a bardic performance is a standard action, but it can be maintained each round as a free action. Changing a bardic performance from one effect to another requires the bard to stop the previous performance and start a new one as a standard action. A bardic performance cannot be disrupted, but it ends immediately if the bard is killed, paralyzed, stunned, knocked unconscious, or otherwise prevented from taking a free action to maintain it each round. A bard cannot have more than one bardic performance in effect at one time.
At 7th level, a bard can start a bardic performance as a move action instead of a standard action.
At 13th level, a bard can start a bardic performance as a swift action. Each bardic performance has audible components, visual components, or both. If a bardic performance has audible components, the targets must be able to hear the bard for the performance to have any effect, and such performances are language dependent. A deaf bard has a 20% chance to fail when attempting to use a bardic performance with an audible component. If he fails this check, the attempt still counts against his daily limit. Deaf creatures are immune to bardic performances with audible components. If a bardic performance has a visual component, the targets must have line of sight to the bard for the performance to have any effect. A blind bard has a 50% chance to fail when attempting to use a bardic performance with a visual component. If he fails this check, the attempt still counts against his daily limit. Blind creatures are immune to bardic performances with visual components.
Counter Song – At 1st level, a bard learns to counters effects that depend on sound (but not spells that have verbal components). Each round of the counter song he makes a Perform (keyboard, percussion, wind, string, or sing) skill check. Any creature within 30 feet of the bard (including the bard himself ) that is affected by a sonic or language-dependent actions such as an opposing bard, noble or Genjutsu may use the bard’s Perform check result in place of its saving throw if, after the saving throw is rolled, the Perform check result proves to be higher. If a creature within range of the counter song is already under the effect of a non-instantaneous sonic or language-dependent magical attack, it gains another saving throw against the effect each round it hears the counter song, but it must use the bard’s Perform skill check result for the save. Counter song does not work on effects that don’t allow saves. Counter song relies on audible components.
Fascinate – At 1st level, a bard can use his performance to cause one or more creatures to become fascinated with him. Each creature to be fascinated must be within 90 feet, able to see and hear the bard, and capable of paying attention to him. The bard must also be able to see the creatures affected. The distraction of a nearby combat, or other dangers prevents this ability from working. For every three levels the bard has attained beyond 1st, he can target one additional creature with this ability. Each creature within range receives a Will save (DC 10 + 1/2 the bard’s level + the bard’s Cha modifier) to negate the effect. If a creature’s saving throw succeeds, the bard cannot attempt to fascinate that creature again for 24 hours. If it’s saving throw fails, the creature sits quietly and observes the performance for as long as the bard continues to maintain it. While fascinated, a target takes a –4 penalty on all skill checks made as reactions, such as Notice checks. Any potential threat to the target allows the target to make a new saving throw against the effect. Any obvious threat, such as someone drawing a weapon, casting a spell, or aiming a weapon at the target, automatically breaks the effect. Fascinate is an enchantment (compulsion), mind-affecting ability. Fascinate relies on audible and visual components in order to function.
Distraction – At 1st level, a bard can use his performance to counter magic effects that depend on sight. Each round of the distraction, he makes a Perform (act, comedy, dance, or oratory) skill check. Any creature within 30 feet of the bard (including the bard himself ) that is affected by an illusion (pattern) or illusion (figment) Genjutsu attack may use the bard’s Perform check result in place of its saving throw if, after the saving throw is rolled, the Perform skill check proves to be higher. If a creature within range of the distraction is already under the effect of a non-instantaneous illusion (pattern) or illusion (figment) Genjutsu attack, it gains another saving throw against the effect each round it sees the distraction, but it must use the bard’s Perform skill check result for the save. Distraction does not work on effects that don’t allow saves. Distraction relies on visual components.
Inspire Courage – A 1st-level bard can use his performance to inspire courage in his allies (including himself), bolstering them against fear and improving their combat abilities. To be affected, an ally must be able to perceive the bard’s performance. An affected ally receives a +1 morale bonus on saving throws against charm and fear effects and a +1 competence bonus on attack and weapon damage rolls. At 5th level, and every six bard levels there-after, this bonus increases by +1, to a maximum of +4 at 17th level. Inspire courage is a mind-affecting ability.

This bonus increases by +5 for every four levels the bard has attained beyond 3rd (+10 at 7th, +15 at 11th, +20 at 15th, and +25 at 19th).

A bard can use this ability more than once against an individual creature during an individual performance. Once under the influence of suggestion the Bard can ask things that the target normally would do but to the Bard’s aid. Such suggestions, like Flee from battle, Provide Defense (Bard or Allies), Give me your stuff, or convince them that one of their allies is out to harm them. You cannot ask something put the targets life at direct risk.
