These bonus feats are in addition to the feats that a character of any class gains every two levels. The soulknife must still meet all prerequisites for the bonus feat, including ability score and base attack bonus minimums as well as class requirements (like levels in another specific class). These bonus feats must be drawn from the feats noted as combat feats or psionic feats. The soulknife gains an additional bonus feat at 4th level and every four levels thereafter (8th, 12th, etc.). Like her psionic powers, she may choose to rotate one or more talents she knows for new ones when she regains her power points each day (see Manifesting below).Īt 1st level, a soulknife gets a bonus combat-oriented feat in addition to the feat that any 1st level character feats and the bonus feat granted to a human character. She also gains the use of two psionic talents, which must be chosen from the soulknife power list.

This provides her with both the psionic power necessary to manifest her mind blade and a single 1st-level power, even if her Wisdom score is not high enough to allow manifesting or to grant her bonus power points. The soulknife gains Unlocked Talent as a bonus feat at 1st level. Table: Weapon Special Abilities Weapon SpecialĪll of the following are class features of the soulknife.Ī soulknife is proficient with all simple weapons, with her own mind blade (regardless of form), with all types of armor (heavy, medium, and light), and with shields (but not tower shields). The soulknife does not gain any other benefits from an increased level (blade skills, etc.). This also applies to feats, traits, and other effects which increase her effective manifester level. At each level where a manifester level would increase by one, treat the soulknife as if she had gained a level of soulknife for the purposes of both Enhanced Mind Blade and Manifesting. This increased psionic training improves her mind blade as well as her manifesting. Sometimes, a soulknife may qualify for a prestige class with '+1 level of existing manifesting class' as a class feature. The soulknife's class skills (and the key ability for each skill) are Acrobatics (Dex), Autohypnosis* (Wis), Climb (Str), Craft (Int), Intimidate (Cha), Knowledge (psionics)* (Int), Perception (Wis), Profession (Wis), Stealth (Dex), and Swim (Str).
