Gladhanding (Ex)

Streetwise Magpie (Ex)

Don't let a gypsy's colorful dress and lack of etiquette fool you. Gypsies can easily blend into any crowd with a simple change of clothes, a change of language, and a change of manners. All gypsies gain Gypsy Cant as an additional language. In addition, a gypsy gains a bonus equal to half her level on Bluff, Disguise, Knowledge (local), and Sleight of Hand checks, Diplomacy or Intimidate checks made to influence crowds, and Diplomacy checks to gather information (minimum +1).

This ability replaces bardic knowledge.

Gypsy Prank (Ex)

There is no such thing as a “fair fight” with a gypsy as they will employ any stratagem to win a conflict, inflicting low blows and sucker punches with verve and joy. Starting at 2nd level, a gypsy selects either Perform (act), Perform (comedy), or Perform (dance). She may use her bonus in the chosen Perform skill in place of her combat maneuver bonus when performing a disarm, dirty trick, or steal combat maneuver. When substituting in this way, the gypsy uses her total Perform skill bonus, including class skill bonus, in place of her combat maneuver bonus. If the gypsy gains bonuses on combat maneuver checks from any feats, spells, magic items, or similar effects, they are added to the Perform bonus when using the appropriate combat maneuver.

This ability replaces versatile performance.

Gypsy Intuition (Su)

At 2nd level, once per day as an immediate action, a gypsy may receive a glimpse of the immediate future and predict the results of a specific action as if she had cast an augury spell. The caster level of this spell is equal to the gypsy's bard class level.

This ability replaces well-versed.

Quick Change (Ex)

At 5th level, a gypsy can don a disguise as a standard action by taking a –5 penalty on her check. She can take 10 on Bluff and Disguise checks and use Bluff to create a diversion to hide as a swift action. She can take 20 on a Bluff or Disguise check once per day, plus one time per six levels beyond 5th.

This ability replaces lore master.
