Class Features:

Favored Enemy (Ex)

Mystery Gourmet gains a bonus on Bluff, Listen, Sense Motive, Spot and Survival checks, and a bonus on damage against his favored enemies. He has a +4 bonus against Humans and a +2 bonus against Undead.

Wild Empathy (Ex)

Mystery Gourmet can improve the attitude of an animal. This ability functions just like a Diplomacy check to improve the attitude of a person. He rolls 1d20 and adds his ranger level and his Charisma modifier to determine the wild empathy check result. The typical domestic animal has a starting attitude of indifferent, while wild animals are usually unfriendly.

To use wild empathy, the ranger and the animal must be able to study each other, which means that they must be within 30 feet of one another under normal visibility conditions. Generally, influencing an animal in this way takes 1 minute, but, as with influencing people, it might take more or less time.

The ranger can also use this ability to influence a magical beast with an Intelligence score of 1 or 2, but he takes a -4 penalty on the check.

Combat Style (Ex)

Mystery Gourmet is a master of the Archery combat style.

Animal Companion (Ex)

Mystery Gourmet's companion is a Hawk named Chicken.

Ranged Precision (Ex)
Mystery Gourmet can deal an additional +1d8 damage to a target he hits with his arrows within 30-ft.

Close Combat Shot (Ex)
Mystery Gourmet does not provoke attacks of opportunity for using a bow in melee.
