1. Body Power (Accomplished Stalker):  A leopard's spots offer excellent camouflage when in the wild and in addition with their natural agility, they make exceptional stalkers. Subtract 10% from all Detect Hidden and Detect Danger rolls when trying to notice a leopard.
2. Body Power (Climbing):  Leopards are exceptional climbers, often making their homes in trees. A leopard only needs to make an Agility roll to see if it remains in the tree if it has been startled or attacked.
3. Heightened Senses:  A leopard has the following heightened senses:
        a. Enhanced Smell: A leopard sense of smell is extremely sensitive. A leopard can recognize individual scents.
        b. Nightvision: A leopard's eyes are well suited for hunting at night. A leopard doesn't suffer any penalties when operating in a night-like darkness. Darkness created by the superpower is a different matter.
        c. Track by Smell: A leopard must make an End roll per hour (on d20, -1 per hour of trail) or else lose the trail.
