Bully

Source Interstellar Species pg. 28
You specialize in close combat, leveraging your intimidating presence to crush your foes’ defenses and hinder their attacks.

Associated Skills: Athletics and Intimidate. You can attempt an Intimidate check with a +4 bonus to make a trick attack by menacing your opponent, making them hesitate to raise a defense. This is a fear effect, and if your foe has a bonus to saving throws against fear effects, they also apply it to the skill check DC of this Intimidate check.
Specialization Exploit: Fearsome presence.
Domineering Strike (Ex): Whenever you make a trick attack against a creature that’s frightened, panicked, prone, or shaken, you treat any trick attack damage dice that roll a 1 or 2 as if they had rolled a 3 instead.
