    Default Feats that Grant SLA's

    Anyone else know of feats that grant spell like abilities? I'm having fun making commoners with them, but its proving rather a pain to locate any more. I know dragonmarks can too, but I dont have the books for those and I dont know how they work ><. If someone could explain them I'd be grateful. From what I've seen, there is a bunch of different marks you can get depending on race and they give different abilities?

    Lesser Aberrant Dragonmark

    Greater Aberrant Dragonmark
    Dragonmark Prodigy
    Dragonmark Adept

    That's a nice selection of 175 total SLAs (some overlap), but it's difficult to have more than 1 SLA per feat spent and it is flat-out impossible to have all 9 feats on the same build.

    Edit: There's a handbook for Dragonmarks. It doesn't give a word-for-word description, but it does give a good rundown.

    Some of those darkness ones also work really well with warlock levels. HiPS on a warlock/rogue? Yes, please.
    In my dreams, I am currently a druid 20/wizard 10/arcane hierophant 10/warshaper 5. Actually, after giving birth to a galaxy by splitting a black hole, level is no longer relevant.

    Making a list is a great idea. It's nice to credit the contributors, but the list would be more useful if organized by the prerequisites (level, race, etc.).

    While not feats, several of the NPC unique abilities in DMG2 grant SLAs. They aren't worth the LA though...
