- | Created Friday 26 July 2013 | ||

- | d20 UA 47 | ||
- | |||
- | The Speed Demon is an expert at vehicles—how they work, | ||
- | what their limits are, and how to exceed those limits. A | ||
- | vehicle is merely an extension of the driver’s body, and a quick | ||
- | thought translates into immediate action. They live for speed.Speed Demons include arcane wheelmen for the mob, professional | ||
- | race car drivers with a hint of shadowblood, and | ||
- | highway patrol officers with an uncanny awareness of the | ||
- | true nature of the world. | ||
- | Select this advanced class if you want your character to | ||
- | excel at driving and the handling of vehicles. Check with your | ||
- | GM before pursuing this class; if her campaign does not promote | ||
- | car chases, then this class may not be ideal for your | ||
- | player character. | ||
- | The fastest path into this advanced class is from the Fast | ||
- | hero basic class, though other paths are possible. | ||
- | Requirements | ||
- | To qualify to become a Speed Demon, a character must fulfill | ||
- | the following criteria. | ||
- | Skills: Drive 6 ranks. | ||
- | Feats: Vehicle Expert. | ||

- | one-half their character level, rounded down, every time they | ||

- | Class Features | ||
- | The following features pertain to the Speed Demon advanced | ||
- | class.Uncanny Dodge X | ||
- | The Speed Demon gains the ability of Uncanny Dodge, or | ||
- | increases the potency of this ability if she already has it. | ||
- | If the Speed Demon does not have Uncanny Dodge 1 (usually | ||
- | gained as a Fast hero), she gains Uncanny Dodge 1: She | ||
- | retains her Dexterity bonus to Defense (if any) regardless of | ||
- | being caught flat-footed or struck by a hidden attacker. (She | ||
- | still loses her Dexterity bonus to Defense if she’s immobilized.) | ||
- | If the Speed Demon already has Uncanny Dodge 1, she | ||
- | gains Uncanny Dodge 2: She can no longer be flanked; she | ||
- | can react to opponents on opposite sides of herself as easily | ||
- | as she can react to a single attacker. | ||
- | If the Speed Demon already has Uncanny Dodge 2, then | ||
- | she gains no further benefit from this ability. | ||
- | Hit the Weak Spot | ||
- | At 2nd level, the Speed Demon knows enough about | ||
- | vehicles to know the best way to damage and disable | ||
- | them. Whether using a weapon or another | ||
- | vehicle, the Speed Demon ignores the first 5 points | ||
- | of hardness when attacking a vehicle. | ||
- | Bonus Feats | ||
- | At 3rd, 6th, and 9th level, the Speed Demon | ||
- | gets a bonus feat. The bonus feat must | ||
- | be selected from the following list, and | ||
- | the Speed Demon must meet all of the | ||
- | prerequisites for the feat to select it. | ||
- | Brawl, Builder, Dodge, Drive-By | ||
- | Attack, Force Stop, Gearhead, Improved | ||
- | Brawl, Renown, Streetfighting, Vehicle | ||
- | Dodge, Vehicle Specialization. | ||
- | Vehicle Empathy | ||
- | At 3rd level, the Speed Demon gains the | ||
- | supernatural ability to use Disable Device | ||
- | with a vehicle with which she has the | ||
- | Vehicle Specialization feat. This is a free | ||
- | action, but she must be touching the | ||
- | vehicle in question in order for the ability | ||
- | to function. This may include popping | ||
- | the locks without tools, starting the | ||
- | engine without keys, or cracking the | ||
- | engine block by touching the hood. | ||
- | Need For Speed | ||
- | At 4th level, the Speed Demon can | ||
- | improve the top speed of a ground or water | ||
- | vehicle that she controls. The vehicle’s top | ||
- | speed is increased by 25%. | ||
- | Nursing the Turns | ||
- | At 5th level, the Speed Demon can get better | ||
- | performance out of a vehicle, reducing some | ||
- | of its penalties. The Speed Demon may spend | ||
- | an action point to negate the Maneuver | ||
- | penalty of a vehicle or Initiative penalty of a | ||
- | vehicle she controls until the beginning of the | ||
- | Speed Demon’s next turn.Commandeer | ||
- | At 6th Level, the Speed Demon gains the supernatural ability | ||
- | to control a vehicle even if she is not behind the wheel or | ||
- | otherwise in immediate control of the vehicle. The Speed | ||
- | Demon makes all Drive checks for the vehicle as long as she | ||
- | is in control. | ||
- | The Speed Demon must be in contact with the vehicle, and | ||
- | loses control of it if she no longer maintains contact. The | ||
- | vehicle must be a vehicle with which the Speed Demon has | ||
- | the Vehicle Specialization feat. | ||
- | The Speed Demon must make a Drive check for commandeering | ||
- | a vehicle. The DC is 10 for an otherwise uncontrolled | ||
- | vehicle or one in which the controller allows the Speed | ||
- | Demon to assume control. If the controller of the vehicle | ||
- | resists the Speed Demon’s attempts, the DC is 10 + the controller’s | ||
- | Drive skill. | ||
- | Leadfoot | ||
- | At 7th level, the Speed Demon gains a +2 competence bonus | ||
- | on initiative checks when controlling a vehicle. | ||
- | Redlining the Needle | ||
- | At 8th level, the Speed Demon treats Check/Roll Modifiers for | ||
- | All-Out and Highway Speeds as Street Speeds (reduced to –1 | ||
- | as opposed to –2 and –4, respectively). | ||
- | Restore Vehicle | ||
- | At 9th level, the Speed Demon gains the supernatural ability | ||
- | to, as a move action or part of a move action, restore a vehicle | ||
- | to working condition. The Speed Demon spends an action | ||
- | point and restores up to 10 points of damage to a vehicle she | ||
- | is in contact with. The restoration is magical in nature, and | ||
- | may be performed while the vehicle is in motion. The Speed | ||
- | Demon may restore damaged portions of the vehicle, such as | ||
- | tires, in the same manner. | ||
- | One with the Vehicle | ||
- | At 10th level, the Speed Demon develops supernatural | ||
- | reflexes behind the wheel, effectively reacting as if vehicle | ||
- | and body were one. When the Speed Demon is in control of a | ||
- | vehicle, she can add her Defense bonus to that of the vehicle. | ||
- | The Defense bonus applies to all parts of the vehicle, including | ||
- | windshields, tires, and passengers. | ||
