Bleeding strike (Ex): When using piercing or slashing weapons, a strike against an enemy that is denied their dexterity bonus, or flanked by the ravager, causes bleed damage (see table). Enemies that are immune to bleed or precision damage are immune to this effect. This bleed damage does not stack with itself. This damage can be healed by a heal check. As the ravager grows in power, the wounds they inflict require more healing expertise to heal. The DC for healing a ravager’s bleeding strike attacks is equal to 15 + ½ the ravager’s level (minimum 0). Spells healing hit point damage automatically close these wounds, as normal with bleed damage. When using ranged weapons, they gain bleeding strike damage out to a distance of 30 ft. as long as they meet the above requirements (such as the opponent being denied their dexterity bonus).

Momentum (Ex): As the ravager fights, their bloodlust grows. Through the thrill of combat, they gain momentum, which they can then spend to use powerful abilities and accomplish great tasks in and out of combat. They begin the day with 0 points of momentum, and gain points through different methods (see below). At any one time, ravagers can have a maximum momentum pool of their 3 + their constitution modifier. This increases by 1 for every level they possess. They can spend as much momentum as their number of actions allow. Momentum can be used the same round that it is gained, as it is meant to be a roll-of-the-punches resource that has the ravager gaining power with each attack, not just each round. The ravager can spend a maximum amount of momentum per round equal to ½ their level (minimum 1) + their constitution modifier.

Gaining momentum: The ravager gains momentum from any of the following events:

Attack/spell/ability dealing hit point damage:  The ravager gains one point of momentum when they take or deal hit point damage from a weapon attack, natural attack, spell or spell-like ability (such as the scorching ray spell), or supernatural ability (such as a wizard’s force missile).

Attack or ability dealing ability drain/damage or negative levels: The ravager gains 1 point of momentum when taking or dealing ability damage, drain, or any form of negative level. If they are dealt multiple negative levels in one attack (such as enervation), they gain 1 momentum per negative level they take.

Afflicting a condition: If the ravager afflicts a target with a condition (such as poison or daze) they gain 1 momentum. They do not gain additional momentum from extra rounds from the same effect (such as poison duration). Special: bleeding strike damage is an exception to this rule, as it grants the ravager one momentum each time the target bleeds in subsequent rounds as long as it is within sight or earshot.

Afflicted with a condition: If the ravager gains a condition (such as shaken, entangled, or dazed) they fight even harder to defeat their enemies. If the effect is noted in rounds, the ravager gains 1 momentum point when afflicted, and 1 at the beginning of their turn each turn per condition if they still have the condition. If the duration is minutes, they gain 1 momentum per minute, if 10 minutes, 1 every 10, if days, they gain 1 at the start of the day after they rest, and this momentum is not lost until it is spent. If the effect is permanent (such as blindness, or a curse) they gain an instant number of momentum points equal to their constitution modifier. If they are unaware of the condition, they do not gain this momentum.

Spell or ability not dealing hit point damage: If the ravager is affected by/uses a spell or ability that bestows a negative effect but not hit point damage (such as the misfortune hex by a witch) the ravager gains 1 momentum for each duration increment it is active (see afflicted with a condition, above)

If an ability or attack delivers multiple sections of the above list, they do not stack for the purposes of gaining momentum. For example, if a ravager is afflicted by a shout spell, they would take sonic damage and be deafened for 2d6 rounds; they would gain one momentum as the spell is cast (not one for both the damage and the condition) and then gain one momentum each round they are deafened.

If the Ravager deals a critical hi/a critical hit is scored against them (unless the critical strike is dealt through a momentum power or talent), they gain a number of momentum points equal to the critical multiplier. The ravager does not gain any momentum if they affect a willing target with an ability that gains momentum against an enemy, or if they affect themselves by one of the effects. Other means for gaining momentum, such as damaging objects, is up to GM discretion. (Such as, kicking down a door would give momentum, but cutting down a tree for wood would not)

Ravagers can ready themselves as a full-round action, giving them a number of momentum points equal to their constitution modifier. This is a loud display of aggression and focus, and thus gives them a -10 penalty to stealth checks for one round. They can also do this as a standard action, gaining half their modifier (minimum 1). This cannot bring their momentum higher than their constitution modifier.

Losing momentum: When no momentum is gained within 1 minute, the ravager loses one momentum per round until they reach their minimum. (0 at first level, increases at 4th level and higher, see the warmed up ability below)

Momentum powers (Ex): At 1st level, and every 3 levels thereafter, the ravager gains access to a set of momentum abilities that they accomplish with their own natural talent. They can spend their momentum and unleash devastating attacks and physical skills to make them a combatant to be feared – or they can maintain their momentum and grant themselves powerful benefits. These abilities do not stack with themselves. (such as, a ravager cannot use the powerful strike ability to spend 4 momentum instead of the normal 2 to gain double the bonus to a damage roll)


Skill rush: Using 1 momentum, the ravager can gain a morale bonus equal to their constitution modifier to one physical skill check (acrobatics, climb, ride, swim). This bonus increases by 1 for every five levels the ravager has. This must be chosen before the attack roll is made. If the momentum pool is full, this bonus is passive.

Powerful strike: They can spend 2 momentum to put extra force into an attack, granting a +2 morale bonus to a damage roll. This bonus increases by 1 every 4 levels the ravager has. This bonus is increased by 1.5x when using a two-handed weapon. This must be chosen before the attack roll is made.

Focused strike: Using 1 momentum, the ravager can put extra focus into their fighting, granting them a +1 morale bonus to an attack or combat maneuver roll. This bonus increases by 1 for every 5 levels the ravager has. This must be chosen before the attack roll is made.

Read the land: The ravager uses their momentum to fuel their ability to read situations and environments with speed and focus. Using 1 point of momentum, they can grant themselves a morale bonus equal to their constitution modifier to a knowledge nature, geography, dungeoneering, or local skill check in order to identify creatures and their weaknesses, as well as survival and perception checks to track in the heat of combat.

4th level onwards:

Desperate fighter: When the ravager’s momentum pool is empty, they gain a +1 competence bonus on attack rolls, combat maneuver rolls, saving throws, and physical skill checks, +2 competence to damage rolls, as well as a +1 bonus to their dodge AC. These bonuses increase by 1 for every 6 levels following 4th.

Natural resolve: The ravager can spend two momentum to grant a +3 morale bonus to a saving throw as an immediate action. At 6th, 12th, and 18th level, this bonus increases by 1. This must be added before the roll is made. As long as the ravager has points in their momentum pool, they gain a +1 morale bonus to their saving throws.

Strong stance: By spending 2 momentum, the ravager can grant a +4 morale bonus to their CMD to trip, grapple, overrun, bull rush, and reposition attempts for one round. This bonus and duration increases by 1 round for every five levels they possess.

Strong grip: By spending 2 momentum, the ravager can grant themselves a +4 morale bonus to their CMD to disarm, steal, sunder, grapple, and dirty trick attempts for one round. This increases by 1 round for every five levels they possess.

7th level onwards:

Damage reduction: While there is one momentum in the pool, the ravager gains 2 DR/-. This increases by 1 for every four levels they possess after 7th. They can also spend 3 momentum to double this number for one round.

Vicious rend: The ravager can spend four momentum to deal double bleed dice when making a bleeding strike attack. The ravager can also deal normal bleeding strike damage against targets that are immune to precision damage or have a chance to deny the attack. This does not enable bleeding strike damage to work against targets that are immune to bleed.

Stubborn: When taken below 0 hit points, the ravager can spend one momentum as an immediate action to remain conscious. At the end of their next turn, and every turn following, they must spend an additional one momentum to remain conscious. If they are taken below negative hit points equal to their constitution modifier, they still die. If they spend two momentum per round, they are not staggered. If they spend three momentum per round, they do not lose hit points for acting below 0 hit points.

Bonus attack: If all attacks hit during a full attack, the ravager can spend two momentum to grant an additional attack at their highest attack bonus. In addition, if the ravager’s momentum pool is full, they gain an additional attack during a full attack. They cannot gain two attacks this way, and this does not stack with effects such as the haste spell.

10th level onwards:

Bone carver: The ravager can specifically target an opponent's limb or other vital area with a devastating strike when spending four momentum and a standard action. Depending on the target chosen, a different effect occurs if they pass or fail a fortitude save. (DC 10 + ½ the ravager’s level + the ravager’s strength modifier, or dexterity if using ranged weapons or weapon finesse)

Arm: Enemy drops what they are holding and take 1d4 strength damage. A successful save negates the strength damage.

Leg: Enemy movement is cut to 5 feet for 1d4 rounds. A successful save reduces this penalty to half speed for one round.

Torso: Enemy takes bleed damage even if not flanked or denied their dexterity bonus to AC, and they are staggered for 1 round. A successful save negates the bleed damage, but not the stagger.

Neck: If they fail, it is a critical strike. At level 20, the target is reduced to -1 hit points and begins dying (or lower, if the ravagers damage causes such), and must make an additional fortitude save, else they die. (DC 10 + ½ the ravager’s level + their strength modifier, or dexterity for ranged weapons or weapon finesse) A successful save dazes the enemy for one round.

Head: The target is dazed for one round, and take 1d4 intelligence damage. A successful save negates the intelligence damage.

Natural resolve (greater): Once per day, the ravager can re-roll a failed saving throw if they empty their momentum pool (minimum ½ their level).

Powerful blood: While the ravager’s momentum pool is full, they become immune to contracting the sickened and nauseated conditions, as well as disease and poison. While one point or higher remains in the pool, they gain a +4 bonus to saves against them. If their momentum pool is empty, the bonus to saves is halved.

Sweeping strikes: The ravager’s attacks cleave adjacent targets to their primary targets for half the damage dealt (they must still roll an attack against these targets. Each attack uses 4 momentum.

13th level onwards:

Auto confirm: The ravager can spend 3 momentum to automatically confirm a critical hit that was just rolled.

Determination: The ravager becomes immune to the fear, compulsion, and enchantment effects as long as their momentum pool is full. While one point or higher remains in the pool, they gain a +4 bonus to saves against them. If their momentum pool is empty, the bonus to saves is halved.

Too quick to see: The ravager can spend two momentum when they move to not provoke attacks of opportunity from moving through threatened squares.



16th level onwards:

Crushing blows: The ravager can spend four momentum to increase all damage in one round by one size category.

Last stand: (Immediate free action) by spending 4 points of momentum as an immediate action when taken below 0 health (even if taken below the death threshold), the ravager is unable to be taken below 1 hit point. They must make an offensive action in the following turn, and are reduced to -1 hit points after.

Unstoppable: The ravager becomes immune to the dazed, stunned, and paralyzed conditions as long as they have one momentum in the pool. If they are afflicted when their pool is empty, they do not remove the condition (as they gain 1 momentum for being afflicted) but do gain a new save each round with a morale bonus equal to the momentum in their pool.

19th level onwards:

Adaptable: When in a flanking position vs. an enemy is immune to the effect, the ravager has a different effect on them based on their type by spending two momentum per strike.

Incorporeal or ooze: Brute force is substituted, dealing 1.5x damage from every hit.

Something with all-around vision and is able to be blinded: Contact with hit blinds the target (fort save), move action to heal. Once per round.

Creature with uncanny dodge or improved uncanny dodge: 50% chance to bypass.

Absolute force: Spend 2 momentum during an attack to pierce 10 damage reduction of any kind.

Momentum talent (Ex): At 2nd level, and every 3 levels thereafter, the ravager can select specific special abilities to learn and use in or out of combat to add to their devastating arsenal, some which use momentum, some with a number of uses per day, and others usable only if their momentum is above or below a certain threshold.

2nd level:

Achilles’ heel: By using one momentum, the ravager can make an attack that reduces the enemy’s speed by half for one round when inflicting bleed damage. This must be chosen before the attack roll is made.

Blood rush: The ravager can spend 2 momentum points to gain fast healing 1 for 1d4 rounds on a successful attack roll. The fast healing increases by 1 at 8th and 16th level. This fast healing does not stack, but it does refresh duration. This ability does not activate on an enemy with hit dice 3 or more than their own.

Crusher: The ravager can use one momentum deals double damage to objects on a single attack. This does not include constructs or undead. This can also be used to increase your strength check by 2 to break objects.

Intimidating glare: As a swift action, the ravager can spend 1 momentum to make an intimidate check to demoralize a single enemy for 1 round. The number of rounds they are shaken increases by 1 at 8th and 16th level.

Rabid swimmer: The ravager gains a swim speed equal to their movement speed as long as one momentum remains in the pool. In addition, they gain ½ their level to swim checks at all times.

Rogue talent: The ravager gains a rogue talent from the following list: acrobatic assist, armor piercer, assault leader, befuddling strike, camouflage, developed poison immunity, distracting attack, emboldening strike, expert leaper, fast getaway, focusing attack, hold breath, iron guts, ledge walker, obscuring blow, offensive defense, pierce the darkness, powerful sneak (as bleed), resiliency, rogue crawl, scavenger, slow reactions, snap shot, stand up, wall scramble, without a trace. Talents pertaining to sneak attacks, instead pertain to bleeding attacks.

Shout: The ravager learns one of the shouts from the gladiator class. This can be used a number of times per day equal to the ravager’s charisma modifier (minimum 1). For offensive shouts, the DC is charisma-based.

Spider: The ravager gains a climb speed equal to their movement speed as long as one momentum remains in the pool. In addition, they gain ½ their level to climb checks at all times.

5th level:

Deadly range: The range of bleeding strike attacks increases by 10 ft. This can be taken once more at 14th level.

Expose armor: During a standard attack action, the ravager can expose the weaknesses in the enemy’s armor, reducing their armor bonus to AC by 2. For every 5 over they succeed, the AC bonus reduces by 1 (minimum 1). The enemy must make a full-round action to fix the armor. This does not stack with itself on the same creature. This cannot take armor AC below 0, and does not affect armor granted by magical effects such as mage armor or bracers of armor.

Quick attack: As an immediate action, the ravager can spend three momentum to go at the beginning of the initiative track (if not already there). When the round ends, the ravager returns to their original position in the initiative.

Shrug it off:  three times per day, the ravager can make a new save as a swift action against a condition that affects them with a +2 bonus. This ability can be used to remove the following status effects: confused, dazed, nauseated, shaken, sickened, fatigued, frightened, fascinated, and dazzled. If the spell or ability had no save, then the ravager makes a check using a bonus equal to their level + the bonus given by this ability against a DC equal to 10 + the caster’s level. This can be used one additional time per day for every three levels following 5th. If there are no uses remaining, the ravager can instead empty their momentum pool to use this ability (minimum ½ their level). If they have uses remaining and empty their entire momentum pool (minimum ½ their level) they can remove all of these conditions without the need to make a save.

Vital critical: The ravager deals double bleed damage when they deal a successful critical hit.

Whirling steel: As long as the ravager has points in the momentum pool, they gain a +1 shield bonus to AC. This bonus increases by 1 for every five levels the ravager has following 5th. This does not stack with feats such as two-weapon defense or shield of swings.

8th level:

Extremespeed: As long as one momentum remains in the pool, the ravager’s dodge AC and movement speed increases by 1 and 10 ft. respectively. This bonus increases by 1 and 5 ft. for every 5 levels following 8th.

Joint strike: By spending 2 momentum on a successful bleeding strike attack, the ravager deals 1d2 dexterity damage. If the ravager spends 3, the damage increases to 1d2+1, and 4, for 1d2+2.

Parry: When the ravager spends 2 momentum points, they can make an attack roll when a melee or ranged attack is scored on them. If they roll higher, they parry. This can only be used once per round. Every 3 levels following 8th, they can parry one additional attack per round.

Sever muscle: By spending 2 momentum on a successful bleeding strike attack, the ravager deals 1d2 strength damage. If the ravager spends 3, the damage increases to 1d2+1, and 4, for 1d2+2.

Swift momentum: While the ravager has half their total momentum pool or higher, their movement speed is increased by 10 feet.

Weapons of fire: The ravager can, once per day as a move action, coat their weapon with oil and set it aflame. This acts as the flaming enchantment, but the flame is not magical. Note: this ability stacks with current flaming enchantments on their weapon. This flame lasts for 1 round per level of the ravager, and can be put out as a move action.

11th level:

Advanced rogue talent: against the wall, blinding strike, confounding blades, crippling strike, defensive roll, fast tumble, hamstring strike, improved evasion, opportunist, slippery mind.

Brutal strike: By spending 3 momentum on a successful bleeding strike attack, the ravager deals 1d2 constitution damage. If the ravager spends 4, the damage increases to 1d2+1, and 5, for 1d2+2.

Cheap shot: The ravager is skilled in distracting and taking cheap shots. The enemy must pass a fort save (DC 10 + ½ the ravager’s level + their dexterity modifier) or be dazed for one round. If they fail by 5 or more, they are stunned. This is used during a standard attack action using three momentum, and also inflicts normal weapon damage.

Critical force: When the ravager’s momentum pool is full, their critical multiplier for weapon attacks increases by 1. They cannot use any momentum during attacks that use this ability.

Critical eye: When the ravager’s momentum pool is empty, their critical range for weapon attacks increases by 1. They cannot use any momentum during the same turn as attacks that use this ability. If an attack hits but does not critically hit, momentum is gained, and thus the following attacks do not have the expanded range.

Overpower: When the ravager parries an attack, the ravager can make a counterattack by spending two momentum. This requires the parry momentum talent, and can only make one overpower attack per round, even if they parry additional attacks.

Pounce: The ravager leaps at an enemy using 4 points of momentum, making a full attack after a charge.

14th level:

Ability bleed: When using an momentum power or talent that deals ability score damage (such as joint strike or brutal strikes) they cause the enemy to take 1 ability score bleed. This is healed by the same check as the bleeding strike damage, and is healed along with it.

Execute: When attacking a prone enemy, the ravager can spend 4 momentum to attempt an execute. This attack is an immediate critical strike if the enemy fails a fort save (10 + ½ their ravager level + their strength modifier, or dexterity modifier for a ranged weapon or weapon finesse). If the ravager rolls a critical hit on this attempt, the multiplier is increased by 1.

The jugular: Once per day, the ravager can make a single standard attack to cut a major vein and cause the enemy to bleed (using bleeding strike damage) for three rounds without being able to be healed. This wound cannot be closed or healed during this duration, even by magic. (Although the individual can have their hit points healed)

Shrug it off (greater): Three times per day, the ravager can make a new save with a +4 bonus vs. the previous DC get rid of one of the following status effects: Stunned, diseased, poisoned, paralyzed, exhausted, panicked. This can be used one additional time per day for every three levels following 14th. If there are no uses remaining, the ravager can instead empty their momentum pool to use this ability (minimum ½ their level). If they have uses remaining and empty their entire momentum pool (minimum ½ their level) they can remove all of these conditions without the need to make a save.

17th level:

Devastating overpower: When using overpower, if the attack is a critical threat, it automatically confirms. This requires the parry and overpower momentum talents.

Recklessness: By using 8 points of momentum as a free action, the ravager can hit enemies with a doubled crit range (Stacking with feats or keen weapons) for one round, but they take a -4 penalty to their armor class until the beginning of their next turn.

20th level:

Destroyer: As long as 8 points of momentum are in the pool when wielding a two-handed weapon, the ravager deals 50% additional damage using weapons, their critical multiplier is increased by 1, and critical hits are auto confirmed. In addition, if dealing bleed damage on a critical hit, they gain hit points as fast healing equal to the bleed damage done.

Savage sniper: As long as 8 points of momentum are in the pool while wielding a ranged weapon, the ravager deals additional damage equal to their dexterity modifier and strength modifier, even if using a ranged weapon that strength normally doesn’t apply to (such as a non-composite longbow).

Multiple stab wounds: As long as 8 points of momentum are in the pool when wielding one-handed or light weapons, bleeding strike damage stacks, and all critical threat ranges expand by one, no matter what one-handed or light weapon they choose.


Utilitarian: All momentum powers are enhanced.

Skill rush: The morale bonus is constant, and can be doubled using momentum.

Powerful strike: the scaling becomes every three levels of the ravager.

Focused strike: the scaling becomes every four levels of the ravager.

Read the land: This morale bonus is constant, and can be doubled using momentum.

Desperate fighter: They also gain improved critical on all attacks as well as fast healing 5 while the pool is empty.

Natural resolve: The base bonus is a luck bonus, thus stacking with the additional morale.

Strong stance: The scaling becomes every four levels.

Strong grip: The scaling becomes every four levels.

Damage reduction: The scaling becomes 1 every 3 levels.

Vicious rend: The momentum cost is reduced by 1.

Stubborn: The base costs of each level of this ability are reduced by 1.

Bonus attack: This stacks with additional attacks given by spells such as haste.

Bone carver: The DC of this ability is increased by 2.

Natural resole (greater): This ability can be used at will.

Powerful blood: As long as there are points in the momentum pool, the ravager is immune to the effects. If the pool is empty, the bonus to saves is +4.

Sweeping strikes: These sweeping attacks deal full damage.

Auto confirm: The momentum cost is reduced by 1.

Determination: The ravager is immune as long as they have more than half their maximum pool.

Too quick to see: The momentum cost is reduced by 1.

Crushing blows: The momentum cost is halved.

Last stand: for one hour following this ability’s activation, the ravager only dies when taken below negative hit points equal to double their constitution score.

Unstoppable: This ability applies to entangled, prone, and grappled conditions.

Combat style: The ravager specializes in a type of combat: Ranged, one-handed and light weapons, or two-handed weapon combat. They can either use their dextrous nature to wield a ranged weapon, one single-handed or two weapons with mastery, or focus on brute force with two-handed weapon.

When chosen, at 2nd level, the ravager chooses a bonus combat feat to add to their arsenal, and their ability to fight changes in a special aspect. When gaining these bonus feats, the ravager does not need to meet the prerequisites.

If they choose ranged, they gain access to bleeding strike at a distance of 40 ft. instead of 30, and choose from precise shot, point-blank shot, combat expertise, multishot, throw anything, charging hurler, opening volley, distance thrower, and deadly aim.

If they choose one-handed weapons, they have the option of using their dexterity modifier for attacks and damage rolls with weapons that qualify for the weapon finesse feat, and gain a +2 bonus to critical confirmation rolls with one-handed or light weapons. For feats, they may choose from two-weapon fighting, dodge, mobility, improved trip, improved disarm, combat expertise, two-weapon feint, and combat reflexes.

If they choose two-handed weapons, they choose one type of combat ability which reduces their AC (charge, lunge, cleave). They reduce the AC penalty by this ability by 1 (minimum -1) They still require the feats for lunge and cleave. For feats, they may choose weapon focus, power attack, combat expertise, furious focus, cleave, shield of swings, improved sunder, improved bull rush, and lunge.

At 6th level, the following feats are added to the list of combat feats they can learn:
Ranged: Manyshot, snapshot, ranged feint, shot on the run, improved charging hurler, parting shot, clustered shots, bullseye shot,
One-handed: Improved two-weapon fighting, double slice, spring attack, greater disarm, greater trip, break guard, and improved two-weapon feint.
Two-handed: Vital strike, greater sunder, greater overrun, greater bull rush, greater cleave, cleaving finish, bloody assault, mobility, and spring attack.

At 10th level, the following feats are added to the list:
Ranged: Critical focus, improved critical, improved precise shot, improved snapshot, improvised weapon mastery, and critical feats they have the prerequisites for.
Two-weapon: Greater two-weapon fighting, hammer the gap, two-weapon rend, critical focus, and critical feats they have the prerequisites for.
Two-handed: improved vital strike, whirlwind attack, quick bull rush, critical focus, and critical feats they have the prerequisites for.

Fast movement (Ex): The ravager moves at high speeds, increasing their base movement speed by 10 ft.

Uncanny dodge (Ex): At 3rd level, the ravager cannot be caught flat-footed. They are still subject to feint attempts. If the ravager is carrying a medium or heavy load, they lose the benefits of this ability.

Alert (Ex): At 3rd level and every 4 levels thereafter, the ravager gains a +1 insight bonus to initiative checks, survival, stealth, and perception checks, and the same bonus to reflex saves vs. traps per rank. In addition, they get an automatic perception check to detect a surprise attack. If they successfully overcome the stealth check of the attackers, the ravager acts in the surprise round. At 10th level, if successful, the ravager is the only individual who may act in the surprise round if they are being ambushed/attacked by enemies.

Warmed up (Ex): At 4th level, the Ravager can maintain 2 momentum points in the pool after the rest are lost. This increases by 2 for every 4 levels following 4th.

Adrenaline rush: At 10th level, the ravager gains a rush from a specific effect in combat. They choose one form of momentum gain, and gain double the number of momentum points they would normally obtain. At 18th level, they choose an additional means of gaining momentum. They cannot choose to increase the same method twice.

Ravagers may choose from the list of methods of gaining momentum in the momentum ability section.

Terrain stride (Ex): At 6th level, a ravager takes no penalty to movement when moving through any sort of difficult terrain due to overgrowth, thorns, briars, or other sorts of terrain of the like. Magical thorns, briars, and growth, still affect them.

Improved uncanny dodge: At 8th level, the ravager is no longer able to be flanked. If the ravager is carrying a medium or heavy load, they lose the benefits of this ability.

Bloodthirst (Ex): At 9th level, when the ravager lands a critical hit or a killing blow, they gain hit points as fast healing equal to ¼ their level, +2 to saves against enchantment, compulsion, and fear effects, and a +2 morale bonus to attack rolls for 1d4 rounds. These effects do not stack, but can refresh duration.

In addition, the ravager naturally gains a bonus equal to their constitution modifier to survival checks to track injured creatures.

Unrelenting (Ex): At 9th level, the ravager is immune to the fatigued condition from external sources. They can still be exhausted, but must be affected by something that exhausts them. (They are immune to effects such as being fatigued while already fatigued can exhaust a target) Ravagers are still affected by fatigue that they inflict upon themselves. (such as multi-classing and using abilities such as the barbarian’s rage)

Fury of combat (Ex): At 12th level, the ravager deals 2x their strength modifier when wielding a weapon in two hands, full strength modifier on off-hand weapons while using two-weapon fighting, may always attack with both weapons after a move, and gain a +1 bonus to their dodge AC while wielding one weapon, with one free hand. If the ravager does not have any momentum, they lose the benefits of this ability.

Scent (Ex): At 13th level, the ravager gains the scent ability.

Unwavering (Ex): At 15th level, the ravager is immune to the fatigued and exhausted conditions.

Always ready (Ex): At 20th level, the Ravager never loses momentum over time unless they choose to, or until they rest.

Overdrive (Ex): At 20th level, the ravager can empty their entire momentum pool (minimum 10) to go into overdrive. This lasts for a number of rounds equal to the ravager's constitution modifier. The ravager gains a +8 morale bonus to their strength and constitution score, +4 to their shield bonus to AC, 10 DR/-, a +4 morale bonus to all saving throws, bleed damage heals the ravager for the damage done as fast healing, and all momentum abilities have their cost reduced by 4. (Abilities still have their normal ‘cost’ when considering the max momentum use per turn)
