Loner Archetype [Sentai]
« on: September 17, 2012, 10:42:19 AM »
Loner Archetype


Not all Sentai fight as a team. Some wander alone, fighting evil wherever they may be, and are unused to having allies. Loner Sentai are sentai who forsake teamwork for greater effectiveness while alone.


For the purposes of the abilities of the Loner archetype, "fighting alone" is defined as targeting an enemy that none of the Sentai's allies have targeted with an attack, spell, or ability within the last 3 rounds, nor have they cast a spell or used an ability that affected that enemy within the last 3 rounds. He is counted as fighting alone until his next turn, or an ally targets of affects that enemy. If a Loner sentai has a creature (such as a special mount or summoned monster) gained through class levels or through magic, that creature does not count as an ally for the purposes of this ability.


A Loner Sentai has the following features.


Maneuvers: The Loner Sentai loses access to the White Raven discipline. He gains access to the Army of One discipline.


Singular Warrior (Ex): At second level, a Loner Sentai is a paragon of single combat. He no longer benefits from morale bonuses provided by allies, but does not take morale penalties from abilities possessed by enemies. If an ability that would provide a morale bonus is changed to provide a different type of bonus, the Sentai gains no benefit from it. Furthermore, he gains a +2 Dodge bonus to AC whenever he is fighting alone, which increases by 1 at 5th level and every five levels thereafter.

This replaces Team Player.


Uncanny Dodge (Ex): By eighth level, a Loner Sentai has gotten used to having no one watch his back, and has no need for it any more. He gains Uncanny Dodge, as the rogue ability of the same name.

This replaces Double Team.


Improved Uncanny Dodge (Ex):  By fourteenth level, a Loner Sentai has mastered the art of not getting stabbed and murdered by enemies. He gains Improved Uncanny Dodge, as the rogue ability of the same name.

This replaces The Power of Teamwork.


True Lone Warrior (Ex): A twentieth level Loner Sentai in combat is a fearsome sight. The Loner Sentai may himself as Flanking while fighting alone. Furthermore, once every four rounds, he may use a Swift action to treat a creature he is flanking with himself as flat footed for all attacks he makes until the beginning of his next turn.

This replaces True Allies of Justice.
