The hands that hurt most are the ones that know where to strike.

Prerequisites

• Base Attack Bonus +1
• 5 Ranks in Knowledge (nature), Knowledge (arcana), or Heal.
• Int 13 or Wis 13

Benefit
As a move action, a character with this feat may make a knowledge or heal check (DC 10 + Creature's HD + Con). If successful, the character may apply their inteligence or wisdom modifier to damage against only that creature. The bonus damage lasts for rounds equal to the character's ability modifier (inteligence or wisdom) with a minimum duration of 1 round. The damage only applies to melee attacks made by the character his or herself. This feat also adds +1 round to the duration of Stunning Fist, Dirty Tricks, Rogue Tricks, or any of the Critical Feats' Status affects. Provided the affects are the direct result of a melee hit.

Only one creature at a time can be the focus of this feat. The Damage is multiplied in a critical, but some creatures such as constructs or incorporeal undead, may be immune to the additional damage.

Author's Note: Nothing too special. Just getting a little more milage out of the knowledge feats, and rewarding characters who invest in skills and get caught in melee.
