Dungeon Delver
In many ways, the Dungeon Delver is the ultimate adventuring rogue. He's skilled at moving
stealthily through all types of dungeon terrain, detecting and disarming inconvenient traps,
bypassing locks, locating treasure, and filching protected items.
Since a Dungeon Delver frequently works alone, he must learn to think and act indpendently,
relying upon no one but himself. Even when exploring a dungeon in the company of other
adventurers, he often keeps to himself - scouting ahead, disarming traps a safe
distance from the group, or seeking treasure while the others are distracted.

Darkvision
A Dungeon Delver's long exposure to pitch-black subterranean surroundings enables
him to develop darkvision out to 60 feet.
Deep Survival
A dungeon delver's experience in deep, dark places grants him a great
familiarity with that world. He is able to gain a +5 bonus to skill
checks when underground. The duration of the bonus is 10 + Dungeon
Delver class level in turns. The Dungeon Delver may use this feat 5
times a day.
Trap Sense
A Dungeon Delver is adept at evading the effects of traps. This functions the same
as the Barbarian and Rogue class feature by the same name. The bonus rises
by 1 for everythree additional Dungeon Delver levels gained (+2 at 4th level, +3 at 7th
level, and +4 at 10th level) and stack with similar bonuses granted by other classes.
Stonecunning
At 2nd level, a Dungeon Delver gains the stonecunning ability. The dungeon delver
receives a +2 competence bonus to search and spot checks when underground, similar
to the Dwarven racial trait by the same name.
Feign Death
Once per day, the dungeon delver is capable of slowing his heartbeat to a
near-stop, leading most to believe he is dead. Effectively, this puts him
at -5 HP for the duration of 1 turn per 2 class levels. Regeneration equipment
botches this stunt.
Augury
Begining at 3rd level, a dungeon delver can foretell whether a paticular action
will bring good or bad results for him in the near future. He is able to gain
1+1 per 2 Dungeon Delver levels in saving throws for a duration of time equal
to his 10 + Dungeon Delver class level in rounds.
Skill Mastery
At 3rd level, a Dungeon Delver becomes so confident in the use of certain skills that he
can use them reliably even under adverse conditions. When using the Disable Trap, Open
Lock, and Set Trap skills, the character automatically takes 20 on any skill checks,
even if in combat.
Improved Evasion
The dungeon delver takes no damage from hazards that allow a reflex save on a
successful save, and only half on a failed check.
Blind-Fight
At 9th level a Duelist gains the Blind-Fight feat.
Blindsense
At 5th level, a dungeon delver gains the ability to activate an acute sensitivity to
sounds, smells, movement and other disturbances within 30 feet. This grants him a +20
bonus to Spot checks and +10 to Listen checks for a duration in turns equal to his
dungeon delver level. He also gains the benefits of Ultravision and See Invisibility.
The Dungeon Delver can do this once per day at 5th level, and twice per day at 10th level.
Phasedoor
At 6th level, a dungeon delver gains the ability to use phase door thrice per day.
This ability functions as a Dimension Door spell.
Tough as Nails
Once per day, the dungeon delver is able to miraculously avoid a fatal catastrophe, and cheat death. He struggles back to 1 HP a minute after his nearly acertained death.
Find the Path
A dungeon delver is able to find his way into and out of confounding mazes and dungeons.
Five times per day, the Dungeon Delver can revealed the area map to himself and gain
a +10 Search bonus is for 10 rounds.
Word of Recall
A dungeon delver is able to recall to a safe location, once per day, akin to the spell by the same name.
