Archetype Features

Weapon and Armor Proficiency Level 1

Wave riders are proficient with all simple and martial weapons and with light and medium armor, but not with shields. This replaces the cavalier's weapon and armor proficiencies.

Seafaring Companion Level 1

At 1st level, a wave rider gains Monstrous Mount as a bonus feat. The wave rider can use this feat only to select a hippocampus mount. Otherwise, this ability functions identically to and replaces the cavalier's mount ability.
