Zeal Mastery (Power)

Religious fanatics devote themselves to a very specific interpretation of faith to the near-exclusion of all other points of view. They tend towards swift and immediate action to achieve their goals. They are unshakable in their resolve and dismiss any who oppose them as enemies of the faith.

Righteous Fervor: Overflowing with the total conviction of his beliefs, a zealot is able to push his body far beyond its limits to accomplish his goals. A number of times per day equal the number of feats spent in this mastery tree plus his charisma modifier divided by 2 the fanatic is able to enter a righteous fervor. When in this state, he gains a +2 bonus to will saves, a +2 bonus to initiative, a +10 boost to his speed, the ability to use flurry of blows, and takes a -2 penalty to his defense. He may remain in this state for a number of rounds equal to 3 plus his constitution modifier. This ability is very draining, and leaves the fanatic fatigued for the duration of the encounter.
