(Combat)
You have mastered a deadly fighting form inspired by the hideous attacks of the barbed devil.
Prerequisites
Improved Unarmed Strike,
Weapon Focus (unarmed strike).
Benefit
Your unarmed attacks can deal either bludgeoning or piercing damage. You decide which type of damage you deal whenever you attack a foe, but you may only choose one type at a time. If you critically hit a foe with your unarmed strike while doing piercing damage, the additional pain caused by the strike causes the foe to become
Sickened for 1 round (or
Staggered for 1 round if the target is already
Sickened). Multiple critical hits in a round against a single foe do not increase the duration of the
Sickened or
Staggered condition.
Special
Hamatulatsu may be selected as a substitute bonus feat at 6th level by a
Monk, Astoran even if the
Monk, Astoran does not otherwise meet the prerequisites. This fighting style is normally only taught to women of the Sisterhood of the Golden Erinyes.
