Weapon and Armor Proficiency: A warlord of utterdark gains proficiency with all simple and martial weapons, with all types of armor, and with shields.
Darkvision (Ex): At 1st level, the warlord of utterdark gains darkvision 120 feet. This overlaps (but does not stack with) any darkvision the character may already possess.

The warlord of utterdark radiates evil as if he were an evil outsider.
Vile Strike (Ex): Beginning at 2nd level, the warlord of utterdark deals 1 additional point of vile damage with any weapon or natural weapon attack. This additional vile damage increases by 1 additional point for every four levels gained thereafter (6th, 10th, and so on).
Dark God’s Blessing (Su): At 3rd level, the warlord of utterdark can apply a +5 luck bonus to a single attack roll, skill check, ability check, or saving throw once per day. Using this ability is a free action but must be declared before the roll is made.
At 7th level, and every four levels thereafter, the warlord of utterdark can call upon this blessing one additional time per day (twice at 7th level, three times at 11th, four times at 15th, and so on).
Bonus Feats: The warlord of utterdark gains a bonus feat at 4th level and an additional bonus feat every four levels thereafter (8th, 12th, 16th, and so on).
