Strike Reverser
"I'm not helpless to physical attacks just because I'm a sorcerer. Watch this!"

Your powers came to you uncontrolled, and that got you in many dangerous situations. However, your powers are also adaptable enough to fix this, and now help you not get hit nearly as much.

Gameplay wise it has abilities that help mix stuff of other roles in, and helps those in odd multiclasses or hybrids.

Prerequisite: Sorcerer

Strike Reverser Path Features:

Strike Armor (11th Lvl): You can use your Charisma modifier in place of Dexterity for determining AC in place of Intelligence or Dexterity when determining AC without heavy armor.

Strike Resistance (11th Lvl): Resistances granted by your sorcerer class features increase by 2.

Struck Action (11th Lvl): When you take damage, as an immediate interrupt you may use an action point, and take a standard action immediately.

Teammate's Energy(16th Lvl): When you flank a foe, both you and your ally deal additional damage to the attack equal to you charisma modifier.
