Brute (Apath)

Unofficial rules compendium

A brute is not a dexterous rogue but a strong one. Often considered just a dumb sidekick, a brute can be just as sharp as any other rogue but often plays up the stupid act to catch foes blind-sided.

Unchained Brute This class incorporates changes to the rogue from Pathfinder Unchained and is unbalanced against the pre-unchained rogue.

Class Features

The brute has all the rogue's class features, except as follows:

Weapon and Armor Proficiency

The brute is proficient with all simple weapons, the greatclub, hand crossbow, longsword, machete, ogre hook, planson, and sap, but not with any armor or shields.

Bonus Feats

At first level the brute gains Combat Stamina as a bonus feat, ignoring the prerequisites of the feat. At level 3, 11, and 19 the brute gains two additional stamina points. This replaces finesse training.
