Scarred Alchemist (Apath)

Unofficial rules compendium

The scarred alchemist is a tough survivor of dangerous experiments, scarred both physically and emotionally but with an unnatural toughness matched by few. This makes him a martial artist of the way of the body. Some consider the scarred alchemist a monster even in his natural form.

Way of the Body Armor Bonus (Su)

As long as he is not wearing any armor, a scarred alchemist gains a natural armor bonus equal to his Constitution bonus. The bonus stacks with armor bonuses (as long as the armor bonus does not come from actual armor worn) and with enchantment bonuses to natural armor. It also stacks with natural armor gained from the mutagen ability, despite both being natural armor bonuses. It does not stack with natural armor, like that provided by polymorph spells.
