Limit Breaks

All characters get access to one limit break chosen at first level. To learn additional limit breaks, a character must learn them from weapons, magic items, or find a teacher. You can learn a new limit break every five levels for a total of 5 known at 20th level. At 1st level, you get 1 limit break usage per day, and every five character levels thereafter, you gain an additional limit break usage.

To activate a limit break, most require a standard action (though some limit breaks allow swift actions to be used) and you can only activate a limit break while your health (or the health of your animal companion, automaton, party member, etc. that is within 50 feet of you) is 50% or less (must also be alive). All limit breaks are considered supernatural (Su) abilities unless stated otherwise. In addition, a limit break cannot be activated while another limit break is in effect (like some that have durations).
