Cities on the Endless Ocean or within the great gulf of the Vokari Waters use massive sailing ships to transport people and goods. When trouble comes calling, all weapons must be wielded to protect cargo and lives. The sailors on these ships often specialize in the use of anchors as weapons.
Anchor Combat
The anchor hurler is proficient in the use of anchors as weapons and treats anchors as though they were in the close and thrown fighter weapon groups. An anchor uses the same statistics as a harpoon, except that is has a range increment of 5 feet, deals bludgeoning damage, and has a damage dice of 2d6.
This replaces unarmed strike
Crushing Anchor (Ex)
At 4th level, the anchor hurler may use an anchor to strike with such force that her target crumbles to the ground. The anchor hurler must declare the use of this ability before the attack made. When the anchor hurler makes her attack roll, first compare her attack roll to her target’s CMB. If the attack roll exceeds the target’s CMB, the target falls prone. The anchor hurler may add bonuses she gains on trip combat maneuvers to this attack roll, but her target does not gain any additional defenses against trip attempts against this attack. The anchor hurler may use this ability once per day at 4th level and an additional time per day at 10th and 16 levels.
This replaces knockout
Feather Crafter (Su)
At 5th level the anchor hurler can craft anchor feather tokens as though she had the Craft Wondrous Items feat. She must make a Profession (Sailor) skill modifier instead of a Spellcraft check in order to craft these tokens, and gains a +2 competence bonus on such checks. This bonus increases by +2 at 9th, 12th, and 17th levels.
This replaces brawler’s strike
Feather Token Hurler (Ex)
At 5th level, the anchor hurler learns to surprise her foes with anchor feather tokens which compliment her combat style. The anchor hurler can use an anchor feather token as a weapon, activating it as it strikes her target. Creatures are denied their Dexterity bonus to their AC against the first attack the anchor hurler makes with an anchor feather token each round.
This replaces close weapon mastery
Improved Crushing Anchor (Ex)
At 16th level, when the anchor hurler successfully causes a creature to fall prone with her crushing anchor ability, her target provokes an attack of opportunity from all creatures other than her.
This replaces awesome blow
Greater Crushing Anchor (Ex)
At 20th level, when the anchor hurler successfully knocks a foe prone with her crushing anchor class feature, that creature takes 3 points of Strength, Dexterity and Constitution damage, and cannot stand up from prone of 3 rounds. A successful Fortitude saving throw reduces this damage and the number of rounds to 1 (DC = 10 + 1/2 the brawler’s level + the higher of the brawler’s Strength or Dexterity modifier).
