Bowsage

Those who live by the sword die by the arrow.

Hit Die: d8 Skills: 4+int Class Skills: Craft, Hide, Knowledge (archetechture and engineering), Listen, Martial Lore, Move Silently, Search, Spot Weapons: All simple weapons, all martial ranged weapons, hand- and repeating- crossbows Martial Schools: Falcon's Eye, Iron Rain, Nightingale Feather, Shadow Hand

Recovery: A Bowsage can recover a single spent maneuver as a move action. He cannot, however, both recover and execute a single maneuver in the same round.

Point-Blank Shot (ex): At level 1, a Bowsage gets Point Blank Shot as a bonus feat

Wise Cover (ex): If you spend enough time standing behind a rampart and shooting things, you get better at standing behind ramparts. At level 2, a Bowsage with partial cover adds 5 percentage points of mischance per point of wisdom modifier (if positive), to a maximum of 95% miss chance.

Weapon Focus (ex): At level 3, a Bowsage gains Weapon Focus with a ranged weapon of his choice.

Wise Motion (ex): At level 4, a Bowsage adds his wisdom modifier (if positive) to move silently checks.

Bonus feat: At levels 6, 10, 14 and 18, a Bowsage gains a bonus feat. The feat must have either point blank shot, weapon focus (a ranged weapon), or a Falcon's Eye, Iron Rain or Nightengale Feather maneuver as a prerequisite. The Bowsage must meet all the feat's prerequisites, except that he may treat his fighter level as half his Bowsage level (plus any actual levels in fighter).

Distant Perception (ex): When computing search and spot penalties, treat everything as 2/3 the distance it actually is.

Prolonged Boost (su): When executing a boost that normally lasts until end of turn or for one round, a Bowsage may choose to prolong it. This causes the boost's effects to last for a number of rounds equal to his wisdom modifier. At level 12, he can do this 1/day (16: 2/day, 20: 3/day).
