We all know what flanking does. You get a small bonus to attack whenever you're flanking with an ally (or are at least treating your enemy as flanked). It also grants sneak attack, assuming your foe doesn't have uncanny dodge, all-around vision, or the like.
But I was looking at the Dimensional Agility (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/feats/general-feats/dimensional-agility) line of feats in Pathfinder, and I saw Dimensional Savant (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/feats/general-feats/dimensional-savant). I got to wondering what tricks could be done with this? Obviously, you can use it to sneak attack a lot of people, including all the oddball things you can do with that (such as Hamstringing them and so on), and getting a small bonus to hit (and giving your allies the same) is also decent.
But I want more than that. Are there any feats and class features that do unusual things to your enemies when they're flanked, or grant you extra (preferably non-numerical) benefits against any enemy you flank? If you can cause flanked enemies to cower on a failed Will save, Dimensional Savant would be the way to do it, I think.
