Major Racial Traits

Choose one of the following Major Racial Traits:

• Favored Class Adept: Beginning at 1st level, and each time you gain a level in your favored class, you gain the favored class bonus (gain either +1 extra hit point or +1 extra skill point) twice.

In campaigns where multi-classing is not allowed, your class is always considered your favored class.

• Unobtrusive: After years of social ostracism, you have learned to make yourself unobtrusive. You can initiate a stealth stance as though you have total concealment when in a crowd of people (15 or more). Furthermore, you add half your character level to your Stealth skill (round down, minimum +1).

• Wary: You have learned the hard way to always guard against random acts of violence. You gain a +2 racial bonus to your AC against attacks of opportunity.
