Marching beyond 8 hours requires a constitution check (DC 10, +2 per hour beyond 8). Failure causes 1d6 nonlethal damage and fatigue until this damage is healed (naturally or magically). Mounts automatically fail this check and take lethal damage instead.
A smaller creature can carry less weight depending on its size category, as follows: Small , Tiny , Diminutive , Fine . Quadrupeds can carry heavier loads than characters can. Instead of the multipliers given above, multiply the value corresponding to the creatures Strength score from Table: Carrying Capacity by the appropriate modifier, as follows: Fine , Diminutive , Tiny , Small 1, Medium 1, Large 3, Huge 6, Gargantuan 12, Colossal 24.
Creatures have firm footing when walking along the bottom, braced against a ships hull, or the like. A creature can only walk along the bottom if it wears or carries enough gear to weigh itself down - at least 16 pounds for Medium creatures, twice that for each size category larger than Medium, and half that for each size category smaller than Medium. 2 A successful Swim check lets a creature move one-quarter its speed as a move action or one-half its speed as a full-round action.

A candle does not provide bright illumination, only shadowy illumination. 2 A bullseye lantern illuminates a cone, not a radius.
Quadrupeds, such as horses, can carry heavier loads than characters can. See Carrying Capacity for more information. 2 Rafts, barges, keelboats, and rowboats are used on lakes and rivers. If going downstream, add the speed of the current (typically 3 miles per hour) to the speed of the vehicle. In addition to 10 hours of being rowed, the vehicle can also float an additional 14 hours, if someone can guide it, so add an additional 42 miles to the daily distance traveled. These vehicles cant be rowed against any significant current, but they can be pulled upstream by draft animals on the shores.
RIDING IN A SADDLE :
Whenever a mount runs out of control, a DC 5 check is required to stay on the mount. DC 10 is used if the mount is ill-suited for riding.

GETTING LOST:
A failed Survival check randomly determines the direction to be travelled. To recognize that the player is lost requires a Survival check (DC 15, +2 per hour of random travel) each hour of being lost. To set a course, a Survival check result determines the correct direction to head in. Multiple characters can make the attempt.

A character can hustle (move at double speed) for 1 hour without a problem. Hustling for a second hour in between sleep cycles deals 1 point of nonlethal damage, and each additional hour deals twice the damage taken during the previous hour of hustling. A character who takes any nonlethal damage from hustling becomes fatigued until this damage is healed (naturally or magically). Mounts take lethal damage instead. 2 Land movement the characters base speed (in feet) multiplied by time. One mile is exactly 5,280 feet. One full day of travel is equivalent to 8 hours of walking.

gates the damage for the first 10 ft. or renders the damage nonlethal if the fall was accidental. Falling on soft surfaces deals nonlethal damage for the first 10 ft. Falling into water deals no damage for the first 20 ft., nonlethal damage for the next 20 ft (1d3 per 10 ft. increment), and lethal damage thereafter (1d6 per additional 10 ft. increment). A diving into water (DC 15 + 5 per 50ft.) negates the damage.

FALLING OBJECTS:
An object must fall its minimum distance to deal lethal damage, otherwise it deals nonlethal damage. An object deals damage per every 10 ft. increment it falls, to a maximum of 20 damage die. A reflex save of DC 15 negates the effects of falling objects 100lbs or lighter. An object that yields to impacts always deals nonlethal damage.

Flying or airborne creatures are treated as one size category smaller than their actual size. 2 Wind of this velocity has a 50% chance of extinguishing unprotected flames. 3 Gusts of this velocity automatically extinguish unprotected flames. Listen checks suffer a -2 penalty. 4 Automatically extinguishes open flames. Has a 50% chance to extinguish covered flames. Listen checks suffer -2 penalty. 5 Blows out unprotected flames and has 75% chance to extinguish covered flames. Listen check suffer a -8 penalty. 6 All fames extinguished. Listen checks are impossible. 7 Extinguish all flames. Listen checks are impossible.
HEAT DANGERS:
Heat deals nonlethal damage and cannot be recovered until the character cools off. If rendered unconscious through the accumulation of nonlethal damage, the character begins to take lethal damage at the same rate. For each hour in 90F or above heat, a creature must make a Fortitude save (DC 15, +1 per hour) or take 1d4 nonlethal damage. In 110F or above heat, the save must be made every 10 minutes. Any nonlethal damage from the heat causes heatstroke and the creature becomes fatigued. These penalties end when the character recovers from the damage. Extreme heat (of 140F or above) deals lethal damage. Breathing air in these temperatures deals 1d6 damage (no save). A fortitude save is required every 5 minutes. Heavy clothing or armor appends a -4 penalty to the save. Boiling water deals 1d6 points of damage, unless the character is immersed, in which case it deals 10d6 points of damage per round.
ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS :
FOG:
Whether in the form of a low-lying cloud or a mist rising from the ground, fog obscures all sight, including darkvision, beyond 5 feet. Creatures 5 feet away have concealment (attacks by or against them have a 20% miss chance).
ACID EFFECTS:
Corrosive acid deals 1d6 points of damage per round of exposure. Total immersion deals 10d6 damage per round. A hurled vile of acid counts as exposure. Fumes from acidic liquids are inhaled and count as poisons. A creature must make a Fortitude save (DC 13) or take 1 point of Constitution damage. You must make another save 1 minute later for another 1d4 Constitution damage. Creatures immune to acid, while immersed, can still drown.
Siege weapon categories includes ballistae, catapults, and boulders thrown by giants.
WEATHER PATTERNS :

COLD DANGERS:
An unprotected creature in cold weather (below 40F) must make a Fortitude save (DC 15 + 1 per previous check) each hour or take 1d6 nonlethal damage. If below 0F, the rate of saves is increased to 10 minutes. A character that takes damage from exposure succumbs to frostbite (treat as fatigued). Extreme cold (-20F or below) deal lethal damage.
CATCHING ON FIRE:
A reflex save (DC 15) avoids catching fire when exposed to open flames or magic. Otherwise, a character takes 1d6 points of damage immediately. Each subsequent round a new reflex save is required to put out the flame or suffer another 1d6 points of damage. Flammable items may increase the reflex DC by 5 and increase the damage to 1d8 if failed.

Wind speeds over 50 mph3. Roll for fog, rain, snow, sleet, hail4. Roll for dust/snow/thunderstorm5. Between 60F and 85F1. Moderate winds (10 to 30 mph)6.
ICE EFFECTS:
Movement cost is doubled when walking on ice. The DC for Tumble and Balance checks increases by +5. Prolonged contact with ice may run the risk of taking damage (See: Cold Dangers).
LAVA EFFECTS:
Lava deals 2d6 points of damage per round of exposure. If totally immersed, it deals 20d6 points of damage per round. Damage from magma continues for 1d3 rounds after exposure ceases but the damage is half of that dealt during actual contact.
Noted temperature is during the day. Night time temperature is 10F to 20F cooler. 2 Downpours can create floods which hinders adventuring. A downpour can last up to 2d4 hours. 3 Powerful storms are generally in four categories: windstorms, blizzards, hurricanes, and tornados. A blizzard is accompanied by 1d3 feet of snow. Hurricanes are accompanied by downpours. Windstorms last for 1d6 hours. Blizzards last for 1d3 days. Tornadoes form as part of a thunderstorm system and last for 1d610 minutes. 4 Use a percentile dice to determine precipitation type: fog (1-30), rain/snow (31-90), or sleet/hail (91-100).Snow and sleet occur only when the temperature is 30F or below. Hail only lasts 1d20 minutes and is accompanied by 1d4 hours of rain. 5 Visibility is cut by . Storms last for 2d4-1 hours. 6 Moderate and more intense winds have a chance to blow out fires, deflect ranged weapons, and make Spot, Search, and Listen checks difficult.
DARKNESS:
Creatures with normal vision (or low-light vision) can be rendered completely blind by putting out the lights (See: Blindness). A blind creature can make Listen checks to locate enemies. Creatures with the Scent ability automatically locate unseen creatures.
SMOKE EFFECTS:
A character who breathes heavy smoke must make a Fortitude save (DC 15, +1 per round) each round or spend that round choking and coughing. A character who chokes for 2 consecutive rounds takes 1d6 points of nonlethal damage. Smoke obscures vision, giving concealment (20% miss chance) to characters within it.
FALLING:
A creature takes 1d6 points of damage per 10 ft. fallen, to a maximum of 20d6. A deliberate jump instead of slipping and falling deals nonlethal damage for the first 10 ft. A DC 15 Jump or Tumble check ne-
-ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS food per day in order to avoid starvation. In hot conditions, the water requirement increases to two gallons of water. A character can go without sustenance for 2 days (water) and 3 days (food) plus his CON modifier. During starvation, the creature suffers 1d4 Constitution damage. When its Constitution reaches 0, the creature dies.

SUFFOCATION:
A creature that has no air to breathe can hold their breath for 2 rounds per point of Constitution. A Fortitude save (DC 10, +3 per round) is required every round after the time has expired. If failed, the creature begins to suffocate and immediately drops to 0 hit points. The creature then loses 1 hit point per round and is considered dying. At -10 hit points, the creature dies.

WATER DANGERS:
Any character can wade through water that isnt over his head. No check is required. Calm water requires a Swim check (DC 10). Fast-moving water requires a DC 15 save or DC 15 Strength check. Rapid water deals 1d3 nonlethal damage due to battering and 1d6 lethal damage if rocks are present. For every 100 ft. under water, a character takes 1d6 damage due to the intense pressure. A successful Fortitude save (DC 15, +1 for each previous check) negates the damage. Very cold water deals 1d6 nonlethal damage per minute.
DROWNING:
A drowning character can suffer from damage due to the lack of air (See: Suffocation). It is possible to drown in other substances, such as sand, fine dust, and silos of grain.

Only magical healing can remove the disease. When damaged, character must succeed on another saving throw or take 1 point of permanent drain instead.
POISONS :
When a creature is infected with a poison, it must make an initial Fortitude save. If failed, the creature suffers primary damage immediately. After 1 minute after initial exposure, the creature must make another Fortitude save or suffer the secondary consequences. This list also includes Ravages from the Book of Exalted Deeds which function like poisons.

COMBAT ACTIONS :
Each round represents 6 seconds in the game world. An actions type essentially tells you how long the action takes to perform. In one round, you may perform one full-round action or a combination of a move action and a standard action. Within a round, you may also do one free action which includes swift and immediate actions.
BREAKING ITEMS :
Characters may break an item with a Strength check instead. For every size category larger than Medium, a creature gains a +4 bonus. A -4 penalty is imposed on creatures smaller than medium per size category. If an items hit points is below half, its break DC decreases by 2.
STANDARD ACTIONS:
ACTION TYPE Attack (melee) Attack (ranged) Attack (unarmed) Activate a magic item Aid another Bull rush Cast a spell (1 std action casting time) Concentrate on active spell Dismiss a spell Draw a hidden weapon Drink a potion or apply an oil Escape a grapple Feint Light a torch with a Tindertwig Lower spell resistance Make a dying friend stable Overrun Read a scroll Ready (triggers a standard action) Sunder a weapon (attack) Sunder an object (attack) Total defense Turn or rebuke undead Use extraordinary ability Use skill that takes 1 action Use spell-like ability Use supernatural ability

swift action usage for that round. You cannot use a swift action and an immediate action during the same round.
ACTION DESCRIPTIONS :
AID ANOTHER:
You can distract or interfere with an opponent by engaging in melee combat. First, make an attack roll against AC 10. If successful, you friends gain either a +2 bonus to AC or to their next attack roll against that opponent. Multiple characters can aid the same friend, the effects stack.
1. You provoke an attack. If damage is dealt, the disarm fails. 2. You and the defender make opposed attack rolls. If either opponent is armed with a two-handed weapon, they gain +4 to this roll. Light weapons suffer a -4 penalty. Unarmed is considered a light weapon. A +4 bonus is granted to the larger creature per each size category. 3. If successful, the opponent is disarmed. If unsuccessful, the opponent can disarm you with an attack roll (step 2). His attempt does not provoke an attack.
FEINT:
To feint, make a Bluff check opposed by a Sense Motive check by the target. Opponent can add his base Attack Bonus to his Sense Motive check. If successful, opponent loses his Dexterity bonus to AC if attacked by you. This attack must be made before the next turn. Feinting against non-humanoids grants a 4 penalty. Against a creature with Intelligence of less than 2, take a -8 penalty.
Regardless of the action, if you move out of a threatened square, you usually provoke an attack of opportunity. This column indicates whether the action itself, not moving, provokes an attack of opportunity. 2 If you have a base attack bonus of +1 or higher, you can combine one of these actions with a regular move. If you have the TwoWeapon Fighting feat, you can draw two light or one-handed weapons in the time it would normally take you to draw one.
BULL RUSH:
You push an opponent. You must be within 1 size category of the opponent. How Bull Rush works: 1. Move into the defenders square (can be combined with a charge). This provokes an attack of opportunity from each opponent that threatens you, including the defender. Each attack has a 25% chance of accidentally hitting the defender. 2. You and defender make opposed strength checks. Add +4 bonus for each size category you are larger than Medium. Add +2 if charging. Defender gets a +4 bonus if it has more than two legs. 3. If you succeed, you push the defender back 5 feet. If you more with the defender, you can push an addition 5 feet per 5 points of difference in the roll, but provoke attacks from others. If failed, you bounce 5 feet backwards. If space is occupied, you fall prone.
FULL-ROUND ACTIONS:
ACTION TYPE Full attack Charge1 Deliver coup de grace Escape from a net Extinguish flames Light a torch Load a heavy or repeating crossbow Lock/unlock weapon in gauntlet Prepare to throw splash weapon Run Use skill that takes 1 round Use touch spell on up to six friends Withdraw1 PROVOKE ATK No No Yes Yes No Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Usually Yes No
FIGHT DEFENSIVELY:
You can choose to fight defensively when attacking or as a full attack action. If you do so, you suffer a 4 penalty on all attacks in a round to gain a +2 dodge bonus to AC for the same round.
GRAPPLE:
Starting a grapple requires a successful attack roll. If you have multiple attacks, you can grapple many times per round (with lower base Attack Bonuses). How to Grapple: 1. You provoke an attack from the opponent. If the attack deals damage, the grapple ends. 2. Make a melee touch attack. If this fails, the grapple ends. 3. Make an opposed grapple check1 as a free action. If you succeed, youre locked in a grapple. If tied, the grappler with a higher Base Attack Bonus wins. You deal damage with an unarmed strike. If unsuccessful, the attempt is lost. 4. To maintain a grapple for subsequent rounds, you must move into the targets space. This provokes attacks from adjacent enemies (excluding target). Moving elsewhere provokes attacks. If you cannot move into the targets space, the grapple fails. While grappled, you lose your Dexterity bonus to AC, you cannot move (unless to break the grapple), and you dont threaten any squares.

May be taken as a standard action if you are limited to taking only a single action in a round.
FREE ACTIONS:
ACTION TYPE 5-foot step Cast a quickened spell Cease concentration on a spell Drop an item Drop to the floor Prepare spell components for a spell1 Speak PROVOKE ATK No No No No No No No
CASTING DEFENSIVELY:
If you want to cast a spell without provoking any attacks of opportunity, you must make a Concentration check (DC 15 + the level of the spell youre casting) to succeed. You lose the spell if you fail.
CHARGE:
1. You must at least 10 ft. in a straight line. You may move up to double your speed towards the target. Nothing may hinder the charge path. You must have line of sight. You cant take 5 ft. step this round. 2. After moving, make a single melee attack. You get +2 to the attack roll1 and -2 to AC. You gain +2 to your Strength check when initiating a Bull Rush.

NO ACTIONS:
ACTION TYPE Delay PROVOKE ATK No
Grapple attempts are automatically lost against creatures two or more sizes larger.
OVERRUN:
An overrun attempts to plow past or over a target. You cannot overrun targets that are two or more sizes bigger than you are. How to Overrun: 1. You provoke an attack from the defender. 2. The defender can waive the attack to avoid the overrun1. You run past the opponent if he avoids you. 3. If the defender blocks, make a Strength check opposed by the defenders Dexterity or Strength check (whichever is higher). A defender gets -4 to the check for every smaller size category. If defender has more than two legs, it gains a +4 bonus. If you win, you knock the defender prone. If you fail, the defender can make an opposed check (as above) against you. 4. If you succeed with the overrun, you can continue with a move action. If you fail you must move 5 ft. backwards. Page | 5
Lances deal double damage when combined with a mounted charge. Readied weapons, such as spears, tridents, and certain other piercing weapons deal double damage when readied (set) and used against a charging opponent.
COUP DE GRACE:
The opponent must be helpless. You must be adjacent to the target. You automatically hit and score a critical hit. If the defender is still alive, they must make a Fortitude save (DC 10 + damage dealt) or die. Delivering a Coup De Grace provokes attacks from adjacent enemies. You cannot deliver a Coup De Grace against a creature that is immune to critical hits.
These attack forms substitute for a melee attack, not an action. As melee attacks, they can be used once in an attack or charge action, one or more times in a full attack action, or even as an attack of opportunity. 2 The description of a feat defines its effect.
SWIFT ACTION:
A swift action is like a free action but can only be used once per round and only during the players turn. This type of action applies mainly to spells and psionics with the swift action descriptor.
DISARM:
You can disarm an opponent with a melee attack. While armed, you knock the weapon to the floor. While unarmed, you grab the weapon. Wielders of spiked gauntlets cant be disarmed. How to Disarm:
IMMEDIATE ACTIONS:
Much like a swift action but can be used at any time during the round. When used, it counts towards a
RUNNING:
When you run, you can move up to four times your speed in a straight line. You lose any Dexterity bonus to AC unless you have the Run feat. You can run for a number of rounds equal to your Constitution score, but after that you must make a DC 10 Constitution check each round to continue running. A character must rest 1 minute before running again. Running represents a speed of approximately 12 miles per hour.
Some weapons may be used to make trip attacks. In this case, you make a melee touch attack with the weapon instead of unarmed. You dont provoke an attack. If failed, you can drop the weapon to avoid a counter-trip.
1 2
Only crossbow or shuriken can be used. Defender loses Dexterity bonus to AC.
SHIELD BASH:
Bashing an opponent with a shield is considered an attack with an off-hand weapon (see Two-Weapon Fighting). A shield is considered a martial bludgeoning weapon. For the purpose of penalties, treat a heavy shield as a one-handed weapon, and a light shield as a light weapon. Tower shields cannot be used to bash. When using your shield as a weapon, you lose your AC granted by that object until the next round. An enhancement bonus does not improve the damage done by a shield during a bash. Shield spikes, when attached to your shield, add the piercing descriptor to it. Damage dealt with a shield with spikes are treated as if one size category higher. You cannot put spikes on a buckler. Shield spikes can be magically enhanced separately from the shield itself.
Defender loses Dexterity bonus to AC. Roll randomly to see what combatant is hit. Treat defenders Dexterity as 0 (-5 modifier).
CRITICAL HITS:
ROLL 1-50 51-60 61-70 71-75 76-80 81-83 84-86 87-88 89-91 92-93 94-95 96-97 98-99 100

SUNDER:
Sundering can only be accomplished with a Bludgeoning or Slashing weapon. How to Sunder: 1. You provoke an attack. Damage does not cancel sunder attempt. 2. Both parties make opposed attack rolls with respective weapons. Wielder of a two-handed weapon gains a +4 bonus. Light weapons suffer a 4 penalty. Opponents gain a +4 bonus for each larger size category over their target. 3. If successful, damage is dealt to the weapon or shield.
RESULT REGARDING TARGET Normal critical hit. Stunned for 1d4 rounds1. Knocked prone2. Bleeding wounds31. Takes 1d6 extra damage4. Left arm is maimed51 and is unusable. Right arm is maimed51 and is unusable. Minor ocular damage, blind for 1d6 rounds6. Critical damage increased by one increment. Bleeding31 wounds on left arm. Bleeding31 wounds on right arm. Major ocular damage, permanently blind. Critical damage increased by two increments. Roll again7.
TWO-WEAPON FIGHTING:
Wielding a second weapon in your off hand, you gain an additional attack per round. You suffer a -6 penalty on attack rolls with your main attack and a 10 penalty with your off hand weapon. Light offhand weapons reduce both penalties by 2. The TwoWeapon Fighting feat reduces the primary attack penalty by 2 and off-hand penalty by 6.
A Fortitude save (DC 10 + attacker level) negates effects. A Reflex save (DC 10 + attack level) negates effects. A bleeding target takes damage equal to that of the attackers level per round until wounds are closed using a cure spell. 4 Damage is not added to regular damage roll and occurs after multiplying. 5 Effects of this last until healed by a cured spell. 6 A Fortitude save (DC 10 + attack level) halves duration. 7 After rolling, if you get this result again, the target must make a Fortitude (DC 25) or be decapitated. If the weapon is not a slashing weapon, the targets head is damaged in a manner as serious as decapitation.
TOTAL DEFENSE:
You can defend yourself as a standard action. You get a +4 dodge bonus to your AC for 1 round. Your AC improves at the start of this action. You cant combine total defense with fighting defensively or with the benefit of the Combat Expertise feat. You cant make attacks of opportunity while using total defense.
USING A SKILL:
Most skill uses are standard actions, but some might be move, full, or free actions. Taking 10 can be done as a full-round action without outside distractions, such as combat or being threatened. Taking 20 can take multiple rounds or minutes.

TRIP:
You can attempt to trip an opponent that is up to one size category larger than you. How to Trip:

DAZED:
The creature is unable to take actions, but has no penalty to AC. A dazed condition typically lasts 1 round.
Magical or masterworked weapons can reroll this result once. A crossbow jams. A bows string breaks. A thrown weapon stabs or hits its wielder for 1d3 damage. A firearm backfires dealing 1d3 damage and temporarily blinding its wielder (a Fortitude save of DC 10 negates effects). 3 A Reflex save (DC 15) negates effects. 4 Roll to hit as normal, critical hits are allowed. 5 Roll to hit as normal, no critical hits allowed. 6 One attack of opportunity is provoked form the creature with the highest initiative that threatens you.
TOUCH ATTACKS :
A touch attack is considered an unarmed attack and does not provoke attacks of opportunity from the defender. You must succeed in an attack roll against the opponents Touch AC. Casting a spell provokes an attack but the act of touching the opponent does not.
DAZZLED:
The creature is unable to see well due to overstimulation of the eyes. A dazzled creature takes a -1 penalty on attacks and perception checks.
RESULT REGARDING ATTACKER Natural weapon maimed1. Take -8 to attack2. Natural weapon injured1. Deals half damage2. Fall prone and take 1d4 CON damage2. Hit adjacent target2. Roll attack, no criticals. Provoke attack from adjacent opponents2. Fall prone2. Provoke attack3 from adjacent opponent2. Pull a muscle. Take 1d6 nonlethal damage4. Normal miss.
DEAD:
When a characters hit points reach -10 or when his Constitution reaches 0, he is killed outright. The characters soul leaves the body and can only be brought back by magic. A dead body decays normally unless preserved magically or alchemically. A restored corpse is brought back to the condition at the time of death or to full health (depending on the spell). Resurrected characters do not need to worry about rigor mortis, decomposition, or other effects that affect a corpse.
CONDITION SUMMARY :
ABILITY DAMAGED:
The character has temporarily lost 1 or more ability score points. Lost points regenerate at a rate of 1 per day unless noted otherwise. No Strength results in helplessness. No Dexterity results in paralysis. No Constitution character is dead. No Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma character is unconscious.
A Reflex (DC 15) negates effects. Monks or creatures with Weapon Focus (Unarmed/Natural) may reroll this result once. 3 One attack of opportunity is provoked form the creature with the highest initiative that threatens you. 4 Fortitude (DC 15) negates effects.
ABILITY DRAINED:
The creature loses the ability permanently and can only regain it by magical means.
DEAFENED:
A deafened character cannot hear. She takes a -4 penalty on initiative checks and automatically fails perception checks that require hearing. Casting a spell has a 20% spell failure rate with verbal components. Characters that remain deafened for a prolonged period of time become accustomed to these drawbacks.
TAKING DAMAGE :
Damage does not slow a creature down unless its current hit point total reaches 0 or less. At a range of -1 to -9, a creature is considered dying. At -10 or more, the creature is dead. If a creature sustains more than 50 points of damage from a single attack that does not kill it, must make a Fortitude save (DC 15) or be killed.
BLINDED:
A blinded character cannot see. He takes a -2 on AC, loses his Dexterity to AC, moves at half speed, and takes a -4 penalty on Search, Strength, and Dexterity-based checks. All vision related checks automatically fail. All opponents are considered to have total concealment. Characters that are blind for a prolonged period of time grow accustomed to these drawbacks.
DISABLED:
A character with 0 or less hit points that has become stable is considered disabled. A disabled character may take a single move action or standard action each round. She cannot attempt full-round actions. She can only move at half speed. Any standard action that the DM feels is strenuous deals 1 hit point of damage after the action is completed. Unless the action increases hit points, the character is considered to be dying. A disabled character with negative hit points naturally heals hit points if being helped. Otherwise, each day she has a 10% chance to start healing naturally.
BLOWN AWAY:
Depending on its size, a creature can be blown away by winds of high velocity (see Environment section). A creature that is knocked down moves 1d4 10 ft., taking 1d4 points of nonlethal damage. A flying creature is blown back 2d6 10 ft. and takes 2d6 points of nonlethal damage due to battering and buffering.
SURPRISE ATTACKS :
A surprise round happens before regular combat begins. To determine awareness, all characters must make the proper perception checks. Any combatants that become aware must make initiative checks to start combat. Unaware combatants do nothing and are considered flat-footed.

A checked creature cannot move forward due to an applied force, such as wind. Creatures on land cannot move in the direction of the wind while creatures flying in the air are pushed back a distance specified by the force.
DYING:
A dying character is unconscious and has negative hit points. At the end of each round, the character rolls a percentile dice to see whether she becomes stable. She has a 10% chance of becoming stable. Otherwise, the character loses a 1 hit point per round.
FLANKING :
When making a melee attack, you get a +2 flanking bonus if your opponent is threatened by a friendly creature on the opponents opposite border or opposite corner. You can also gain this bonus if you attack from one of the flanking squares shown. If you are attacking from the rear, the attacker gains a +4 bonus to attack rolls.
CONFUSED:
A confused characters actions are determined by a percentile dice. ROLL ACTION 1-10 Attack or close in on closest caster 11-20 Act normally 21-50 Babble incoherently 51-70 Flee in a random direction 71-100 Attack nearest creature (or familiar) A confused character that cannot perform the action indicated must babble incoherently. Any attack
ENERGY DRAINED:
The character suffers one or more negative levels. If the creature has as many negative levels as hit die, they are considered dead. Each negative level gives a creature the following penalties: PENALTY PER NEGATIVE LEVEL -1 to attack rolls, saving throws, ability checks -5 hit points -1 effective level (determining: power, duration, DC) -1 spell or spell slot from highest spell level
Page | 7
STABLE:
A character that was dying but who has stopped losing hit points and still has negative hit points is considered stable. The character is still unconscious. An ally can stabilize a character by using a Heal check (DC 15). Any sort of healing that cures at least 1 hit point, stabilizes a character. If the character became stable on his own and hasnt had help, he is still at risk of losing hit points. Each hour, he has a 10% chance of becoming unconscious and disabled. Otherwise, he loses 1 hit point.
STAGGERED:
A character that has suffered nonlethal damage and is brought down to 0 hit points is considered staggered. A staggered character can only take a single move or standard action each round. She cannot take a full-round action. If her hit points were brought below 0, she becomes unconscious.
NAUSEATED: FASCINATED:
A fascinated character is entranced by an effect. The creature stands or sits quietly, taking no actions other than to pay attention. It takes a -4 penalty on skill checks made as reactions. Any potential threat, including approaching the creature, allows it a new save against the effect. Any direct threat, such as drawing a weapon, attacking, or casting a spell, automatically breaks the effect. A fascinated creature can be shook free by an ally as a standard action. Nauseated creatures are unable to attack, cast spells, concentrate on spells, or do anything else requiring attention. The only action such character can take is a single move action per turn.
PANICKED:
A panicked creature must drop everything it holds and flee away from the source of its fear along a random path. The creature cannot take any other actions and suffers a -2 penalty on all saving throws, skill checks, and ability checks. If cornered, the creature begins to cower. A panicked can use special abilities, including spells, to flee. A panicked state is more intense than shaken or frightened.
STUNNED:
A stunned character drops everything held, cant take actions, takes a -2 penalty to AC, and loses his Dexterity bonus to AC.
TURNED:
A turned creature flees for 10 rounds by the best means possible. If they cannot flee, they cower.
FATIGUED:
A fatigued creature cannot run or charge and takes a -2 penalty on Dexterity and Strength. Any actions that cause a fatigued character to become fatigued causes exhaustion. 8 hours of complete rest cancels the fatigue.
UNCONSCIOUS: PARALYZED:
A paralyzed creature is frozen in place and unable to move or act. Such a creature is considered to have 0 Strength and Dexterity, but can take purely mental actions. An airborne creature that relies on wings immediately ceases to flap and plummets to the ground. A paralyzed swimmer cannot swim and may drown if not buoyant. Moving through the space occupied by a paralyzed creature is possible but with double the cost. A creature is considered unconscious if she is knocked out and helpless. Unconsciousness can result from having less than 0 hit points or from an excess of nonlethal damage.
FLAT-FOOTED:
A flat-footed character loses his Dexterity bonus to AC and cannot make attacks of opportunity. A creature is considered flat-footed in the following situations: On the 1st round of combat, before creatures turn. While paralyzed. While using the balance skill with less than 4 ranks. When surprised by a hidden opponent.

PRONE:
The creature is forced to the ground and suffers a -2 penalty to melee attacks. While prone, the creature cannot use ranged weapons (except for a crossbow). A prone character gains a +4 AC bonus against ranged attacks but takes a -4 AC penalty against melee attacks. Standing up provokes an attack from adjacent enemies.

An Intimidate check is opposed by either a Sense Motive check or by a DC equal to the targets level. See the Intimidate skill for details.
DIPLOMACY (CHA):
Negotiating diplomatically may take several minutes. To rush the negotiation, the DC increases by 10. The participants roll opposing diplomacy checks and the winner gains the advantage. A failed attempt can be retried, but imposes penalties. Diplomacy can be used to gain favoritism from a person or party (See: Influencing NPCs). You can use the Wild Empathy feat in place of diplomacy when influencing animals.
TAKING 20:
Like taking 10, a character cannot be threatened or distracted. This type of task is assumed to take d20 +10 rounds to complete. Taking 20 means you are trying until you get it right, and it assumes that you fail many times before succeeding.
CONCENTRATION (CON):
Concentration checks can be made as a free action. A concentration check is required for an action that requires full attention while being distracted. If the check fails, the action is wasted.

APPRAISE (INT):
You can appraise common or well-known items (DC 12). Failure means you estimate the value at 50% of its actual value. Appraising rare (DC 15) or exotic items (DC 20 or higher) does not allow estimation. Appraising takes 1 minute and does not yield to retries.
BALANCE (DEX):
You move at half speed when walking on precarious surfaces. If you try to move at full speed, you suffer a -5 penalty to all balance checks. You may accept this penalty in order to charge. A balance check is required for every multiple of your base speed. You are considered flat-footed while balancing, since you cant move to avoid a blow. Having 5 or more ranks in balance negates this penalty. You must make another balance check after each attack you suffer to see if you remain standing.

A craftsperson must understand the item being crafted by rolling a craft check higher than the required DC. Crafting involves materials ( of items market price) which must be purchased beforehand. An item has a crafting point cost of the final market value, with a minimum of 15. The result of the crafters crafting check is subtracted from the remaining crafting point cost each hour until it reaches 0. If the crafter stops crafting for more than 6 hours, a new skill check must be rolled. Crafting feats are still required to make items above mundane quality. Offering help is acceptable and crafting checks stack between all parties involved.

JUMP (STR):
You can jump vertically with a high jump or over a distance with a long jump. A jump requires a 20 ft. running start. Without a running start, the DC is doubled. The DC for a long jump is equal to that of the distance traveled (ie. 10 ft. jump is DC 10). For a high jump, the DC is a multiple of 4 per foot of travel (ie. 4 ft. jump requires a DC of 16). A high jump benefits from the vertical reach of a creatures height. CREATURE SIZE VERTICAL REACH Colossal 128 ft. Gargantuan 64 ft. Huge 32 ft. Large 16 ft. Medium 8 ft. Small 4 ft. Tiny 2 ft.

COUNTERSPELLS:
To counterspell, you must ready an action against a target. How counterspelling works: 1. You delay your standard action until your opponent tries to cast a spell (you may still complete a move action on your turn). 2. When the opponent tries to cast a spell, make a Spellcraft check (DC 15 + spell level) to determine the spell being cast. This is a free action. If this fails, you cannot do anything else. 3. If successful, you correctly identify the spell being cast. To complete the action, you must cast either an opposing spell or the same spell with alterations. It is assumed the two spells cancel each other out. You can use Dispel Magic spell to counter another spellcaster. Metamagic feats are not taken into account.
