|types=Ancestral School
|summary=You were inducted into a secretive order of crusaders, paladins and war-priests that teach the secret arts of Champion’s Might, a splinter school of Devoted Spirit that teaches how to directly channel divine power into martial maneuvers.
|prereqs=One [[Devoted Spirit (3.5e Martial Discipline)|Devoted Spirit]] maneuver, smite class feature
|fluff=<!-- Any non-mechanical flavor you want to show -->
|benefit=You unlock the ability to learn maneuvers and stances from the school of [[Champion's Might (3.5e Martial Discipline)|Champion’s Might]]. You treat maneuvers or stances from Champion’s Might as if they were [[SRD:Devoted Spirit Devoted_Spirit_(3.5e Martial Discipline5e_Martial_Discipline)|Devoted Spirit]] maneuvers for purposes of qualifying for new maneuvers or stances. You may choose new maneuvers by means of classes that grant access to Devoted Spirit, or by means of the Martial Study feat.
You treat all levels in a class that grant the smite class feature as initiator levels for purposes of learning new Devoted Spirit or Champion’s Might maneuvers and their power. For example, a 4th level [[SRD:Paladin|paladin]]/2nd level crusader is treated as having an initiator level of 4th for all maneuvers, and of 6th for Champion’s Might or Devoted Spirit maneuvers. Classes that grant the smite class feature include the crusader, the [[SRD:Paladin|paladin]], the [[SRD:Blackguard|blackguard]], the soulborn (see ''[[Publication:Magic_of_Incarnum|Magic of Incarnum]]'' for more details), and the [[SRD:Cleric|cleric]] (only if it has the [[SRD:Destruction_Domain|Destruction]] domain).
If you have no ability to replenish maneuvers, you may sacrifice a daily use of your smite ability to recover all expended maneuvers for the encounter.
