==Metanode Spell==
( Champions of Ruin, p. 25) 
[Metamagic, Node Magic] 
You cast metamagic spells to greater effect in nodes to which you are attuned than elsewhere.
====Prerequisite====
Node Spellcasting (CR) , Spellcaster Level 1,
====Benefit====
When casting a spell improved by a metamagic feat, you can deduct the class of the node layer in which you currently stand from the increased spell level. The class of the layer does not equal the class of the node unless you are standing in the innermost portion of it. For example, if you use Maximize Spell to augment the 5th level spell flame strike in the innermost (+1) layer of a Class 1 node, you cast the spell as if it were only two levels higher than normal, not three, because the node pays one spell level's worth of the metamagic cost. This feat is most useful to casters who do not prepare spells (such as bards and sorcerers) and to wizards who rarely leave their nodes and can therefore prepare and cast their spells at the adjusted level.
If you use this feat to reduce the cost of preparing a metamagic spell and then leave the node, the spell you prepared is unavailable until you return to a node layer of at least the same class as the one in which the spell was prepared.
==Mortifying Attack==
( Champions of Ruin, p. 20) 
[General] 
Those who witness your brutal death attack are unnerved and jarred by the experience.
====Prerequisite====
Death attack class feature,
====Benefit====
All creatures within 30 feet that witness you make a successful death attack must succeed on a Will save (DC equal to death attack damage dealt) or be shaken for 2d4 rounds. Any creature you consider your ally is unaffected. In addition, creatures that fail the save are so horrifi ed by the attack that they lose their Dexterity bonus to Armor Class for 1 round. The target of the death attack must also make the saving throw if it survives. This extraordinary ability is a fear effect.
==Mutilator==
( Champions of Ruin, p. 20) 
[General] 
After striking down your enemy in battle, you can skillfully mutilate the corpse to prevent others from raising it from the dead.
====Prerequisite====
Base attack bonus +4, any evil alignment,
====Benefit====
After delivering the killing blow to a creature (that is, reducing it to -10 hit points) with a melee weapon, you can decapitate or otherwise hack apart the corpse as a free action. Doing so does not provoke attacks of opportunity and ensures that the creature cannot be revived using a raise dead spell. You can mutilate only one enemy per round in this fashion.
==Natural Bully==
( Champions of Ruin, p. 21) 
[General] 
You easily terrify weaker adversaries.
====Prerequisite====
Intimidate 6 ranks,
====Benefit====
All enemies within 30 feet of you that have one-half your Hit Dice or less are bullied; they take a -2 morale penalty on attack rolls made against you. A bullied enemy that succeeds in hitting and damaging you is no longer subject to the penalty and cannot be bullied by you for 24 hours. Creatures immune to fear effects cannot be bullied and do not take the penalty on attacks rolls to hit you.
==Node Defense==
( Champions of Ruin, p. 25) 
[Node Magic] 
You can use the magical power of a node to defend yourself from harm.
====Prerequisite====
Node Spellcasting (CR) , Spellcaster Level 1,

[General] 
You can perceive a node just by passing near it.
====Prerequisite====
====Benefit====
You automatically note the presence of any node to which you are attuned within 30 feet.
====Normal====
A creature without this feat that comes within 30 feet of the outermost layer of a node can make a DC 20 Intelligence check to note the presence of the node. A creature with the appropriate Node Spellcasting feat can attempt either an Intelligence check or a Spellcraft check at the same DC to notice the node.
==Node Spellcasting==
( Champions of Ruin, p. 25) 
[Node Magic] 
You have discovered the secret of the magic of a particular type of node.
====Prerequisite====
Spellcaster Level ,
====Required for====
Metanode Spell (CR) , Node Defense (CR) , Node Store (CR) ,
====Benefit====
You are attuned to one type of node and the magical power it provides. When you choose this feat, choose a type of node (earth, evil, or Shadow Weave). This feat grants you access to the various node magic feats and node powers, and allows you to make a Spellcraft check instead of an Intelligence check to notice nearby nodes of the type to which you are attuned.
====Special====
You can gain this feat multiple times. Each time you take the feat, it attunes you to a different node type.
====Normal====
A creature without this feat cannot take other node-related feats, cannot access a node's full potential, and must make an Intelligence check to notice nearby nodes or to manipulate node powers.
==Node Store==
( Champions of Ruin, p. 26) 
[General] 
You can store a prepared spell in a node to which you are attuned.
====Prerequisite====
Node Spellcasting (CR) , Spellcaster Level 1,
====Benefit====
Each time you take this feat, choose two spells of any level that you know and can cast. If you are a spellcaster who prepares spells, you can now prepare those two spells in addition to your normal spell complement as long as you are in a node to which you are attuned, just as if you had two extra spell slots per day. These extra prepared spells are stored in the node instead of in your mind. You can cast them normally while you are within that node, even if you have left the node and returned since storing them there. If you are a spellcaster who does not prepare spells, choose two spells that you know. You can now cast those two spells while in a node to which you are attuned as if you had two extra spell slots per day available. Each such slot can be used only to cast its designated spell; it cannot be used for any other spell (including the other spell designated with this feat). If you leave the node, these extra spell slots become unavailable to you, but you can use them again if you return, provided that you haven't already used them since the last time you rested. You do not need to designate a specifi c node in which to store your spells when you choose this feat, but you can have spells stored in only one node at a time. You can change the node in which your spells are stored by meditating for 1 hour inside the new node you have selected.
====Special====
You can gain this feat multiple times. Each time you take the feat, it applies to two new spells.
==Poison Immunity==
( Champions of Ruin, p. 21)

After prolonged exposure to a poison or toxin, you have rendered yourself immune to it.
====Prerequisite====

====Prerequisite====
Ability to rebuke undead, evil alignment,

==Reaping Spell==
( Champions of Ruin, p. 21) 
[Metamagic] 
The dark energy of your spell devours the soul of any creature killed by it.
====Prerequisite====
Any evil alignment,
====Benefit====
A raise dead, reincarnate, or resurrection spell cannot return to life a creature killed by a reaping spell, and a true resurrection spell has only a 50% chance of succeeding. A reaping spell that fails to kill the target has no additional effect. A reaping spell uses up a spell slot three levels higher than the spell's actual level
==Scion of Sorrow==

====Prerequisite====
Krinth, summon familiar class feature,
====Benefit====
Your summoned familiar looks like a dark, shadowy version of a normal familiar. It is insubstantial and gains the incorporeal subtype (see Monster Manual page 310). A shadowform familiar is more closely bound to you than a normal familiar, and the maximum distance from you the shadowform familiar can travel is 30 feet per caster level. If you are separated from your shadowform familiar by a distance greater than this, the shadowform familiar dissolves into nothingness and is considered slain.
====Special====
This feat does not transform a normal familiar into a shadowform familiar.
==Shadowstrike==

Alternatively, you can take a small item worn or carried by your fallen foe, such as a piece of jewelry, pouch, potion, light weapon, or helmet, in which case the victim takes no damage.
