Pathfinder 1e Trait Race_Package

Oppressive

Swift action Sense Motive gives +4 on Intimidate and +1 to fear DC against target. Replaces nocturnal and pride.

Syrinxes often have a natural talent for sensing how to unsettle and oppress other creatures. As a swift action, a syrinx can attempt a Sense Motive check against a DC of 10 + a creature's Hit Dice + its Charisma modifier or a DC of 10 + the creature's Bluff modifier, whichever is higher. On a success, syrinx gains a +4 racial bonus on Intimidate checks against that target and a +1 racial bonus to the DC of any fear effects she uses against that target. This racial trait replaces nocturnal and pride.
