Class Features:
Weapon and Armor Proficiency:
Gnomish Face Divers gain no proficiency with any weapons or armor
Diving Attack (Ex)
At 1st level, after jumping off the face, shoulders or back of a medium sized creature, a Gnomish Face Diver may make a DC 15 jump check. If the check is sucessful, she may make a charge attack at an opponent at most 15 feet away from her with a +1 competence bonus to attack rolls and damage. At 2nd and 3rd level, this bonus to attacks and damage increase by +1. Reach weapons may not be used for a Diving attack.
Focused Jumper (Ex)
A Gnomish Face Diver with 5 or more ranks in Concentration gains a +2 synergy bonus on jump checks. For each additional 5 ranks she has, this bonus increases by +1.
Piggyback (Ex)
A Gnomish Face Diver may make a DC 15 climb check to get on the face, shoulders or back of a willing subject who is of at least Medium size. For an unwilling subject, the DC increases by 2 plus the unwilling subject's wisdom bonus. While piggybacking an unwilling subject, both Gnomish Face Diver and subject are considered to be in a grapple. A Gnomish face diver can use her Ranks in Climb instead of her normal grapple bonus to escape a grapple and end up on the subject's head.
Diving Stunt (Ex)
At 3rd and 5th level, a Gnomish Face Diver may choose one of the following Diving Stunts:
Bonus Feat: A Gnomish Face Diver Gains one of the following bonus feats: Acrobatic, Combat Reflexes, Dodge, Exotic Weapon Proficiency, Martial Weapon Proficiency, Mobility, Power Attack, Skill Focus (Jump or tumble only) or Toughness
Diving Feint: While making a Diving attack, a gnomish face diver may make feint as a free action. However, the subject of the feint gains +5 to the sense motive check
Diving Flurry: While making a diving attack, a Gnomish Face Diver gains an extra attack at a -2 penalty
Spinning Assault: While making a Diving attack, a gnomish face diver gains the benefits of the Whirlwind Attack feat, even if she does not meet the prerequisites
Springboard Attack: When making a Diving attack, if the target is felled, a Gnomish face diver may make a DC 18 jump check to make another Diving attack a target within 10 ft of the previous one
Spray Attack: While making a Dive attack, instead of making a charge attack, a Gnomish Face Diver may instead insteat attack everyone in a 10 ft radius with a barrage of throwing weapons (Reflex DC 15 + the Gnomish Face Diver's class level negates). A gnomish face diver must have an appropriate number of throwing weapons with her, and after a spray attack, she is considered prone for 1 round.
Mantis Legs (EX)
A gnomish face diver may take 10 on a jump under any circumstances
