'''Feats''' are properties a creature can choose to gain when leveling up.  Usually, certain levels will offer a choice between two points of [[Ability Score]] improvement, and choosing a Feat instead, though some Feats also bring a single point of Ability Score improvements with them.
'''Feats''' are powerful passive or active features a character can select at certain levels during the level up process.
