Oni's Bane

(Oriental Adventures, page 64, DnD 3.0)

[Ancestor]

Your ancestor, Isawa Akuma, was a Phoenix shugenja who sought to understand the mystery of identity. Venturing into the Shadowlands, he lost his own identity to an oni. *Clan:* Phoenix.

Benefit

You gain a +3 bonus on caster level checks (1d20 + caster level) to beat an outsider's spell resistance. However, because of Akuma's fall, you suffer a -2 penalty on "Diplomacy":skills/diplomacy/ checks.
