Serpent Tongue Style [Arcane Combat]
Magic is a force in the universe which can be manipulated just as any other ability. Spellcasters have an innate pool which they draw upon in combat, but even warriors can learn fighting styles which draw out magic from the surrounding natural world no different than using gravity to augment the power behind their blows. The serpent tongue style, originally developed by manipulative fiends, draws energy from the world and manipulates appearances and sometimes reality through the shadow plane and subtle amounts of psychological warfare.Prerequisites: Fighter level 4, Spellcraft 2 ranksBenefit: The energy you draw from the universe makes any weapon you wield at minimum a +1 weapon. However if you are already carrying a magic weapon, it is surrounded by a subtle mist which leaves afterimages and small illusions in its wake. Due to these disruptions in reality the first attack you make in a round treats your opponent as being flanked (granting you a +2 and opening up the ability to sneak attack). If you are actually flanking, the bonus stacks to a total of +4. This is a supernatural ability.
Knowledge Arcana, Knowledge Nature, Knowledge Religion, Knowledge The Planes, and Spellcraft all become class skills retroactively.
Special: Arcane Combat feats can be taken as fighter bonus feats.
