Weapon and Armor Proficiency

Way of Life Armor Bonus (Ex)

When unarmored and unencumbered, the champion brawler adds her Charisma bonus (if positive) as a dodge modifier to armor class and CMD. She loses this bonus when she wears any armor, when she uses a shield, when she carries a medium or heavy load, or when she is denied her Dexterity bonus to armor class. The champion brawler can use her way of life armor bonus with a shield. This replaces the brawler's AC bonus ability.
