=== Combat ===

Mavis’ natural attacks and any weapon she wields are treated as [[SRD:Epic Magic Weapons|epic]] and [[SRD:Good Effect|good]]-aligned for the purpose of overcoming [[SRD:Damage Reduction|damage reduction]]. Also, when wielding her ''fiendslayer'' – a +5 [[SRD:Composite Longbow|composite longbow]] with the [[SRD:Distance|distance]] and [[SRD:Evil Subtype|evil]] [[SRD:Outsider Type|outsider]]-[[SRD:Bane (Weapon Enhancement)|bane]] enhancement – Mavis may magically create any sort of [[SRD:Slaying Arrow|slaying arrow]] when drawn (DC 20 [[SRD:Fortitude|Fortitude]] negates).

'''{{Anchor|Change Shape}} {{Su}}:''' Mavis can assume the form of any [[SRD:Small Size|Small]] or [[SRD:Medium Size|Medium]] [[SRD:Humanoid Type|humanoid]].

'''{{Anchor|Protective Aura}} {{Su}}:''' Against attacks made or effects created by [[SRD:Neutral Evil|evil]] creatures, this ability provides a +4 [[SRD:Deflection Bonus|deflection bonus]] to [[SRD:Armor Class|AC]] and a +4 resistance bonus on [[SRD:Saving Throw|saving throws]] to Mavis and anyone within 20 feet of her. Otherwise, it functions as a ''[[SRD:Magic Circle against Evil|magic circle against evil]]'' effect and a ''[[SRD:Lesser Globe of Invulnerability|lesser globe of invulnerability]]'', both with a radius of 20 feet ([[SRD:Caster Level|caster level]] 22nd). The defensive benefits from the aura are not included in Mavis’ statistics block.)

'''[[SRD:Regeneration|Regeneration]] {{Ex}}:''' Mavis takes normal damage from [[SRD:Epic Magic Weapons|epic]] [[SRD:Evil Effect|evil]]-aligned weapons, and from [[SRD:Spells|spells]] or effects with the [[SRD:Evil Effect|Evil]] descriptor.

*[[SRD:Damage Reduction|Damage Reduction]]/- equal to [[SRD:Constitution|Constitution]] bonus is replaced by an increase of your highest existing [[SRD:Damage Reduction|Damage Reduction]] by half your [[SRD:Constitution|Constitution]] bonus.
*[[SRD:Fast Healing|Fast healing]] becomes immunity to ability damage and ability drain.

==== Practiced Spellcaster (Cleric) ====

Mavis' caster level for the purpose of her clerical casting is 4 higher than it would usually be, to a maximum of her Hit Dice (22nd).

==== Combination [[Point Blank Shot (3.5e Feat)|Point Blank Shot]] and [[Sniper (3.5e Feat)|Sniper]] ====

*Mavis' range increments with ranged weapons are 50% longer than they would ordinarily be. Any benefit of being within 30 feet of an opponent is retained out to 60 feet.
*When Mavis is within 60 feet of her target, her attacks with a ranged weapon gain a +3 bonus.
*Mavis adds her [[SRD:Base Attack Bonus|base attack bonus]] to damage with any ranged attack within the first range increment (330 feet).
*Mavis does not suffer a -4 penalty when firing a ranged weapon into melee and never hits an unintended target in close combats or grapples. 
*Mavis' ranged attacks ignore cover bonuses (except total cover). 
*Mavis never provokes [[SRD:Attack of Opportunity|attacks of opportunity]] when making ranged attacks, and may make ranged attacks of opportunity against opponents who provoke them within 60 feet. Movement within this area does not provoke an attack of opportunity.
*Opponents struck by Mavis' ranged attacks do not automatically know what square the attack came from, and must attempt to find her normally.

*As a full attack action, Mavis may target an area with a radius of her first range increment with a ranged weapon. Every enemy within the area takes weapon damage.
