Deities and Demigods Feats

Blindsight, 5-ft. Radius
(  Deities and Demigods, p. 49)

[ General]

The deity senses opponents in the darkness.

Prerequisite
Blind-Fight (PH), Base attack bonus +4, WIS 19,

Benefit
Using senses such as acute hearing and sensitivity to vibrations, the deity detects the location of opponents who are no more than 5 feet away from it. Invisibility and darkness are irrelevant, though it cannot discern incorporeal beings. (Except for the decreased range, this feat is identical with the exceptional ability blindsight defined in the Monster Manual.)

Disguise Spell
( Deities and Demigods, p. 50)

[General]

The deity can cast spells without observers noticing it.

Prerequisite
Perform 12 ranks, Bardic music,

Benefit
The deity has mastered the art of casting spells unobtrusively, mingling verbal and somatic components into its music and performances so that others rarely catch the deity in the act of casting a spell. Like a silent, stilled spell, a disguised spell can't be identified through Spellcraft. The deity's performance is obvious to everyone in the vicinity, but the fact that the deity is casting a spell isn't. Unless the spell visibly emanates from the deity or observers have some other means of determining its source, they don't know where the effect came from. A disguised spell uses up a spell slot one level higher than the spell's actual level

Divine Might
( Deities and Demigods, p. 50)

[Divine]

The deity can channel energy to increase its damage in combat.

Prerequisite
Power Attack (PH), CHA 13, STR 13, Ability to turn or rebuke undead,

Benefit
The deity can spend one of its turn/rebuke undead attempts to add its Charisma modifier to its weapon damage for a number of rounds equal to its Charisma modifier. This is a supernatural ability

Divine Vengeance
( Deities and Demigods, p. 50)

[Divine]

The deity can channel energy to do additional energy damage in combat against undead.

Prerequisite
Extra Turning (PH), Ability to turn undead,

Benefit
The deity can spend one of its turn undead attempts to add 2d6 points of sacred energy damage to all its successful melee attacks against undead until the end of its next action. This is a supernatural ability

Energy Substitution
( Deities and Demigods, p. 50)

[Metamagic]

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;">The deity can modify a spell that uses energy to use another type of energy.

Prerequisite
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;">Knowledge (arcana) 5 ranks, Any other metamagic feat,

Benefit
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;text-align:justify;">The deity chooses one type of energy: acid, cold, electricity, fire, or sonic. When employing a spell with the acid, cold, electricity, fire, or sonic designator, it can modify the spell to use its chosen type of energy instead. The altered spell uses a spell slot of the spell's normal level.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;text-align:justify;">The altered spell works normally in all respects except the type of damage dealt. For example, a fireball spell changed to a sonicball spell works like a fireball, but deals sonic damage instead of fire damage.

Special
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;text-align:justify;">A deity can gain this feat multiple times. Each time the feat applies to a different type of energy.

[Metamagic]

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;">The deity can cast spells without material components.

Prerequisite
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;">Any other metamagic feat,

Benefit
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;text-align:justify;">A spell cast with Eschew Materials can be cast with no material components. Spells without material components are not affected. Spells with material components with a cost of more than 1 gp are not affected. An eschewed spell uses up a spell slot of the spell's normal level

Extra Music
( Deities and Demigods, p. 50)

[General]

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;">The deity can use its bardic songs more often than it otherwise could.

Prerequisite
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;">Bardic music,

Benefit

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;">The deity's superior battle sense helps minimize the threat of flanking attacks.

Prerequisite

Benefit
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;text-align:justify;">Attackers do not gain the usual +2 attack bonus when flanking the deity. This feat grants no effect whenever the deity is attacked without benefit of its Dexterity modifier to AC, such as when it is flat-footed or when it is the target of a rogue's sneak attack

Fleet of Foot
( Deities and Demigods, p. 50)

[General]

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;">The deity runs so nimbly that it can turn corners without losing momentum.

Prerequisite

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;text-align:justify;">When running or charging, the deity can make a single direction change of 90 degrees or less. A deity can't use this feat while wearing medium or heavy armor, or if it is carrying a load heavier than light.

Normal
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;text-align:justify;">Without this feat, a deity can run or charge only in a straight line.

Benefit
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;text-align:justify;">The deity may make up to three extra attacks with each weapon it wields, albeit with a -5 penalty on the second attack with each weapon and a -10 penalty on the third.

Special
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;text-align:justify;">This feat replaces the Greater Two-Weapon Fighting feat for deities with more than two arms

Greater Spell Focus
( Deities and Demigods, p. 50)

[General]

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;">The deity chooses a school of magic to which it already has applied the Spell Focus feat. Its magic spells of that school are even more potent than normal.

Greater Two-Weapon Fighting
( Deities and Demigods, p. 50)

[General]

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;">The deity is a master at fighting two-handed.

Special
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;text-align:justify;">A ranger who meets only the base attack bonus prerequisite and the Improved Two-Weapon Fighting prerequisite can gain this feat but can only use it when wearing light or no armor.

Hold the Line

No initial touch attack is required. The deity can deal normal damage while grappling, rather than subdual damage, without suffering a penalty on its grapple check.

Normal
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;text-align:justify;">Characters without this feat make a melee touch attack to grab their opponent and provoke an attack of opportunity doing so.

Benefit
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;text-align:justify;">A persistent spell has a duration of 24 hours. The persistent spell must have a personal range or a fixed range (comprehend languages or detect magic, for example). The deity is still required to concentrate on spells such as detect magic and detect thoughts to use their effects. Concentrating on such a spell is a standard action that does not provoke an attack of opportunity. A persistent spell uses up a spell slot four levels higher than the spell's actual level

Repeat Spell

[Metamagic]

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;">The deity can cast a spell that repeats the following round.

Benefit
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;text-align:justify;">A repeated spell is automatically cast again at the beginning of the deity's next round of actions. No matter where the deity is, the secondary spell originates from the same location and affects the same area as the primary spell. If the repeated spell designates a target, the secondary spell retargets the same target if the target is within 30 feet of its original position; otherwise the secondary spell fails to go off. A repeated spell uses up a spell slot three levels higher than the spell's actual level. Repeat Spell cannot be used on spells with a range of touch

Sacred Spell

[Metamagic]

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;">The deity's damaging spells are imbued with divine power.

Benefit
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;text-align:justify;">Half of the damage dealt by a sacred spell results directly from divine power and is therefore not subject to being reduced by protection from elements or similar magic. The other half of the damage dealt by the spell is as normal. A sacred spell uses up a spell slot two levels higher than the spell's actual level. Only divine spells can be cast as sacred spells

Sharp-Shooting
( Deities and Demigods, p. 52)

[General]

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;">The deity's skill with ranged weapons lets it score hits others would miss due to an opponent's cover.

Subdual Substitution

[Metamagic]

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;">The deity can modify a spell that uses energy to deal damage to deal subdual damage instead.

Prerequisite
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;">Knowledge (arcana) 5 ranks, Any other metamagic feat,

Benefit
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;text-align:justify;">When employing a spell with the acid, cold, electricity, fire, or sonic designator, the deity can modify the spell to deal subdual damage instead of the indicated type of energy damage. The altered spell uses a spell slot of the spell's normal level. The altered spell works normally in all respects except the type of damage dealt. For example, a fireball spell changed to a subdualball spell works like a fireball, but it deals subdual damage instead of fire damage

Superior Expertise
( Deities and Demigods, p. 52)

[General]

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;">The deity has mastered the art of defense in combat.

Prerequisite
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;">Combat Expertise (PH), INT 13, base attack bonus +6,

Benefit
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;text-align:justify;">When the deity uses the Expertise feat to improve its Armor Class, the number it subtracts from its attack and adds to its AC can be any number that does not exceed its base attack bonus. This feat eliminates the +5 maximum for the Expertise feat

Widen Spell

Benefit
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;text-align:justify;">A widened burst, emanation, or spread spell has its area increased by 50%. Spells that do not have an area of one of the three sorts listed above are not affected by this feat. A widened spell uses up a spell slot three levels higher than the spell's actual level.
