Juuken Stance (Ex): When unarmored and unencumbered a Hyuga Genius adds his Wisdom bonus (if any) to his AC. This bonus to AC applies even against touch attacks or when the adept is flat-footed. He loses these bonuses when he is immobilized or helpless, when he wears any armor, when he carries a shield, or when he carries a medium or heavy load.

Improved Unarmed Strike: A Hyuga Genius receives Improved Unarmed Strike as a bonus feat.

Juuken Strike (Ex): As a full-round action a Hyuga Genius may perform one Unarmed Strike using his highest base attack bonus. If this attack hits the Hyuuga Genius deals bonus psionic damage as shown in the table above. Juuken damage is equally dependent on the psionic power of the Hyuuga Genius and the precision of each attack; treat Juuken damage as Sneak Attack damage for the sake of qualifying for feats and prestige classes.

Abilities that advance Sneak Attack damage may instead advance Juuken Damage; this choice is made each time the Hyuuga Genius increases their Sneak Attack damage. Juuken Damage is halved against a targets immune to Critical Hits.

Ancient Talent: A Hyuga Genius receives Wild Talent as a bonus feat.

Pure Hyuga (Ex): The blood of a Hyuga is ancient and pure, nigh unsullied by mortal weakness. At first level the Hyuga Genius awakens his Byakugan, fusing the irises and pupils of his eyes into an almost-white circle within his Sclera. Henceforth Hyuga Geniuses do not naturally die from old age and, while Psionically Focused, gain the following benefits.

Level 1: (1 + HD/3) Racial Bonus to Search, Spot, and Survival skill checks
Level 4: Does not suffer Aging Penalties and gains Uncanny dodge.
Level 7: Adds (Wisdom Bonus/2) to all Attack and Damage Rolls
Level 10: Spell Resistance of (HD + Wisdom Bonus). A Hyuga Genius may Raise or Lower his Spell Resistance as Free Action.
Level 13: No longer needs to breathe, eat, or sleep and gains Improved Uncanny Dodge.
Level 16: Adds (Wis Bonus) to all Attack and Damage Rolls; this replaces the Level 7 Pure Hyuga ability.
Level 19: Immunity to Critical Hits, Nonlethal Damage, Ability Damage, and Ability Drain.

Even while he is not Psionically Focused a Hyuga Genius retains the Pure Hyuga abilities of a Hyuga Genius with half of his class levels; a 20th level Hyuga Genius retains his Spell Resistance regardless of whether he is Psionically Focused.

Advanced Gentle Fist: At every third level, a Hyuga Genius gains one ability from the following list:

Advanced Byakugan (Su): At 2nd level and every third level thereafter the Hyuga Genius’s Byakugan further improves. While Psionically Focused he gains one ability from the following list:

Untyped, half blocked by precision immunity.
