List of Pathfinder Feats
Check the racial entries if you are not sure if a prerequesite applies to your race. Ton'keena both have the catfolk and humanoid traits, so a player can take Human feats for their Ton'keenas.
Nobility-related Feats
Characters can be part of the local Nobility. The Noble status works like an alignment : it can be gained or lost depending on the player's actions. 1st-level Samurai and Yamabushi start out as Noble : they gain the Nobility feat in addition to their starting feat.
- Nobility
- Lost Nobility
If a character atones for the actions that caused them to lose their Nobility status, they may be reinstated. They regain the Nobility feat and lose the Lost Nobility one.
Magic Feats in Heibesu
Due to the different spellcasting system, some feats from the Pathfinder SRD are not appropriate for use in the game.
- Any feat that grants spell-like abilities or additional spells known is unavailable.
- The Spell Mastery Pathfinder feat and anything to its effect is unavailable. Anything that grants such a feat gains Rune Focus instead.
- The Brew Potion, Craft Magical Arms and Armour, Craft Staff, Craft Wand, Craft Wondrous Item, and Scribe Scroll feats are unavailable. See the Runed Item section to craft magical items. See the Scrolls section to craft scrolls (TBA). Alchemists can Brew Potions from level 1.
- Feats that refer to Spell Levels are either inapplicable or apply thusly: Levels 1 to 3 are first tier core runes, levels 4 to 6 are second tier core runes, and levels 7 to 9 are third tier core runes and up.
- Feats that apply to a certain school of magic apply to some runes instead (see here)
- Rune Focus [Rune] : Many Wizards find themselves drawn towards certain runes, seeking deeper mysteries behind them. Sorcerers discover their runes through the school of hard knocks, but find themselves coming back again and again to the rune at the core of their being. Spellcasters of all stripes find that they hold an affinity for their Runic Focus... whatever it may be. Anyone who takes that feat must choose a Foci below.

Homebrew Metamagic Feats
As described in the Pathfinder Players Guide, with the following exceptions. Instead of raising the spells level, instead increase the casting DC by the normal level increase multiplied by two.
Chi Focus Feats
"Chi Focus feats" refer to feats with the Chi Focus descriptor. They pertain to non-magical usages of Chi, such as the abilities of martial artists who have learned to focus their spiritual power. A character spending Chi points to activate a Chi Focus feat is not limited in her Chi Point expenditure in the same way as a spellcaster, although certain feats may place additional limitations on them.
- Active Spirit [Chi Focus]
- Battle Frenzy [Chi Focus]
As long as the character has at least 1 Chi Point, they may use a move action to enter a Battle Frenzy. While in Battle Frenzy, the character gains +2 Strength and Dexterity, a +2 Deflection bonus to their armour class, and +10' base speed. They may make an additional attack each round at their maximum attack bonus, and ignore all penalties from Fatigue or Exhaustion. Maintaining Battle Frenzy is a free action that requires the character to expand 1 chi point. If a character in Battle Frenzy takes damage, they must make a Concentration check against a DC of 5 + damage taken or immediately end Battle Frenzy. Their bonus on this check is their character level + their constitution modifier. When Battle Frenzy ends, the character becomes Fatigued (or Exhausted if already Fatigued) for a number of rounds equal to the difference between their maximum Chi pool and their current Chi pool.
- Ancient Attention
- Chi Conversion [Chi Focus]
The character can convert Chi points into HP and vise versa on a 1:1 basis as a move action. They may convert as many points as they wish in a single action.

- Chi Sensing [Chi Focus]
The character may attempt to sense out other Chi sources as a move action. When the character uses this ability, they automatically detect the size and location of any living creatures or plants within a radius of 10 feet + an additional 5 feet for each point of wisdom modifier they have. Walls do not block this ability.
- Dance of Blades [Rune]
When using Wind as both Core and Shape runes, the caster may cause the gust of wind to deal 1d4 slashing damage per 10 mph of windspeed to any character caught in the effect.
- Disrupting the Weave [Chi Focus]
As a full round action, the character can set up a sequence of disruptive waves in the leystream that makes harnessing or observing spiritual energy more difficult. For a number of rounds equal to the character's Constitution modifier, all Spellcraft checks made within 60 feet of the square this ability was activated suffer a penalty equal to the character's level.
- Earthward [Rune]
When using Earth as both Core and Shape runes, the caster may cause any character within range of the effect to gain a +1 Inherent bonus to their AC and Saves per CP spent to power the Core rune for as long as the spell is maintained.

While holding the iron cloth, they may treat their Unarmed Strikes as a Reach Weapon up to the length of the longest single piece of fabric, and may decide whether their unarmed attacks deal Bludgeoning, Slashing or Piercing damage. Alternatively, they may use the cloth to protect themselves, spending up to 4 chi points to add a corresponding armour bonus to their AC.This effect lasts three rounds, or until the end of the turn the cloth leaves the character's hand.

The character may use Chi Conversion immediately as a Reaction if their Hit Points drop below 0.
