Class Features
Improved Unarmed Strike: Benefit You are considered to be armed even when unarmed—that is, you do not provoke attacks of opportunity from armed opponents when you attack them while unarmed. However, you still get an attack of opportunity against any opponent who makes an unarmed attack on you. In addition, your unarmed strikes can deal lethal or nonlethal damage, at your option.
Combat Reflexes: Benefit: You may make a number of additional attacks of opportunity equal to your Dexterity bonus. With this feat, you may also make attacks of opportunity while flat-footed.
Unarmed Combo Strike: Lets you make an additional attack for every 1 class level.
Advanced Training:When you are wielding any weapon larger than a light weapon, attacking you with a light weapon provokes an attack of opportunity. This applies to unarmed strikes, even if your opponent has the Improved Unarmed Strike feat.
Kick Up: Standing up from a prone position is a free action. You also gain a +4 bonus on any Dexterity or Strength check made to resist a trip attempt..
Improved Disarm: You do not provoke an attack of opportunity when you attempt to disarm an opponent, nor does the opponent have a chance to disarm you. You also gain a +4 bonus on the opposed attack roll you make to disarm your opponent.
Fast Heal 2: you gain two hit points every round.
Cast-Iron Stomach: You derive nourishment from spoiled food and can avoid dehydration by drinking seawater with few ill effects. By subsisting on these unusual provisions, you double the amount of time you can go without fresh food and water.
Strike Naturally: Your unarmed strikes become natural weapons.
Grounded Weapon: Each grapple check you win after you pin your opponent, you cause your base unarmed damage with an extra +1d6 damage as long as you and the person you are grappling both remain immobile (granting opponents a +4 bonus to attack you).
