Vermin Trainer

(Drow of the Underdark, page 53, DnD 3.5)

[General]

Your service to the Spider Queen gives you insight into training vermin.

Prerequisite

Handle Animal 4 ranks, Knowledge (religion) 4 ranks, Drow

Benefit

You can use the Handle Animal skill to handle and train vermin as if they were animals with Intelligence scores of 1.

Special

The size of vermin directly affects the ability of the trainer to instruct them (see page 46).

Normal

Without this feat, only animals and magical beasts with Intelligence scores of 1 or 2 can be handled and trained with the Handle Animal skill, and using Handle Animal on a magical beast is done with a --4 penalty on the check.
