Stand Against Death
Narrow Bridge (Counter)
Level: 4
Prerequisite: Two Narrow Bridge maneuvers
Initiation Action: 1 immediate action
Range: Personal
Target: You
Duration: Instantaneous
Saving Throw: None


You may use this maneuver when you are subject to either an attack by an undead or deathless being or are called on to make a save against a death effect or a supernatural or spell-like ability used by an undead or deathless being. If used in response to an attack, you make a Knowledge (religion) check and add 1/2 of the check result as a bonus to your AC.

If used in response to having to make a save, you substitute a Knowledge (religion) check for rolling the save. You gain a +2 circumstance bonus on the save if being using the ability is an undead or deathless of a type you have recognized due to a Knowledge (religion) check. You get a +1 circumstance bonus if you recognized the type of being due to a different knowledge skill. The DC is the same as would be for the save. Since this is a skill check, a 1 is not an automatic failure and a 20 is not an automatic success.
