==Swift Hunter==

This is an attempt to make a fun class in the spirit of the Swift Hunter feat from D&D 3.5, but with a little more punch.

===Making a Swift Hunter===

A Swift Hunter is a scout and mobile warrior.  Though he can survive the occasional scrape, he is not intended as front line martial character.  Though he can deal his fair share of damage, he's probably better fills the "skill monkey" slot in the party.  

'''Races:''' Any

'''Alignment:''' Any

'''{{Anchor|Power Points/Day}}:''' A <-class name->’s ability to manifest [[SRD:Powers|powers]] is limited by the [[SRD:Power Points|power points]] he has available. His base daily allotment of [[SRD:Power Points|power points]] is given on [[#Table: <-class name->|Table: <-class name->]]. In addition, he receives bonus [[SRD:Power Points|power points]] per day if he has a high <-relevant ability-> score (see [[SRD:Ability Scores#Ability Modifiers and Bonus Power Points|Table: Ability Modifiers and Bonus Power Points]]). His race may also provide bonus [[SRD:Power Points|power points]] per day, as may certain feats and items.
