When an adjacent creature damages you with piercing or slashing damage, it must succeed at a Fortitude save against your class DC or become stupefied 1 (or stupefied 2 on a critical failure) until the end of its next turn.

These benefits last until you're no longer polymorphed into a plant.

You have a pet—a Tiny Animal order of a type you choose, such as a cat, bird, or rodent. It has the minion trait, meaning it gains 2 skill action during your turn if you use the Command an Animal action to command it; this replaces the usual effects of Command an Animal, and you don't need to attempt a Nature check. A pet can't make Strikes.

Level Your pet's level is equal to yours.

Modifiers and AC Your pet's save modifiers and AC are equal to yours before applying circumstance or status bonuses or penalties. It uses 3 + your level as its modifier for Perception, Acrobatics, and Stealth, and just your level as its modifier for other skill checks. It doesn't have or use its own attribute modifiers and can never benefit from item bonuses.

Hit Points Your pet has 5 Hit Points per level.

Senses Your pet has low-light vision and can gain additional senses from pet abilities.

Speed Your pet has a Speed of 25 feet. You can choose to instead have an Aquatic pet, which breathes in water instead of air and has the Aquatic trait, no land Speed, and a Swimming Speed of 25 feet.

Pet Abilities When you gain your pet, choose two of the following abilities. If your pet is an Animal order that naturally has one of these abilities (for instance, an owl has a fly Speed), you must select that ability. Your pet can't be an Animal order that naturally has more pet abilities than the maximum. In some cases, the GM might add some familiar abilities described on pages 212–213 to the pet abilities you can choose.

• Amphibious It gains the amphibious trait, allowing it to breathe in both air and water, and has both a land Speed and a Swimming Speed, each equal to its highest land Speed or Swimming Speed.

• Burrower It gains a Burrowing Speed of 5 feet, allowing it to dig Tiny holes.

• Climber It gains a Climbing Speed of 25 feet.

• darkvision It gains darkvision.

• Echolocation Your pet can use hearing as a precise sense within 20 feet.

• Fast Movement Increase one of the pet's Speeds from 25 feet to 40 feet.

• Flier It gains a fly Speed of 25 feet.

• Manual Dexterity It can use up to two of its limbs as if they were hands to Perform manipulate skill action.

• scent Your pet can use scent as an imprecise sense within 30 feet.

• Tough Your pet's max HP increase by 2 per level.

Special You can gain a new pet by retraining this feat, releasing any previous pet you have. If you later gain a familiar or other companion that uses the Pet feat, you can immediately retrain this feat.

Prerequisites You have been petrified by an enemy.

It might have been a medusa, dracolisk, or even a fossil golem; regardless of the source, you were the target of some petrifying effect, and an element of that stony gaze has remained with you, both protecting and slowly consuming you. Your limbs are coated with a layer of stone that rests atop your skin and covers more of your body as you lose health. You gain a stone fist unarmed attack that deals 1d8 bludgeoning damage, has the shove trait, and is in the brawling weapon group (unlike a normal fist, it doesn't have the agile or finesse traits). Additionally, you become more petrified as your life force ebbs. When you have fewer than half your maximum Hit Points, you increase the damage die size of your stone fist from 1d8 to 1d10 and gain resistance to physical damage (except adamantine) equal to your Constitution modifier.

If you would gain the dying condition, you can choose to instead be permanently petrified and avoid the risk of death. When you do, you enter your petrified form with your full maximum Hit Points instead of the normal number. If you become unpetrified, you return to 0 Hit Points, as normal. You can't voluntarily end this petrification. Counteracting this petrification requires a casting of stone to flesh of a spell level equal to at least half your level, and a successful counteract check against the hard DC for your level. Other effects like stone to flesh have similar limitations, as determined by the GM. Each time you recover from this petrification, you gain a new scar on your skin in the shape of a long, thin crack.

Requirements You're wielding a two-handed firearm or a two-handed crossbow.

You can concentrate an immense amount of magic to create a piece of ammunition that phases through everything but your target. Make a bow Strike against a foe who is observed or hidden to you (but not undetected). The ammunition travels to your target in a straight line, passing through any non-magical barriers or walls in its way, though magical barriers stop the arrow. The shot ignores all cover, the concealed condition, the hidden condition, and circumstance bonuses to AC from shields. It has a +4 status bonus to hit creatures wearing any type of armor. The Strike's damage can't be reduced with a Shield Block reaction using a non-magical shield.

Prerequisites your eidolon is a phantom

Your eidolon phases out of reality slightly, gaining resistance to all damage (except force and negative) equal to half your level. It's not incorporeal, but it can't use Strikes or actions that require a fully physical form, such as Grapple, Shove, or Trip.
