Knight

Target must succeed at a concentration / hardiness check to continue any secondary actions he is currently taking, the next strike against the target is also at a +2 bonus.
When the knight strikes a moving creature, its movement becomes 0 for its round.
The knight may plant himself behind his shield, gaining its AR to any area of effect spell, and his DT to reduce the damage of spells cast at him.
The Knight may move up to his movement and force the target to direct its attacks toward him. He gets to strike at the target, and gains his CMD.
While maintaining a Threatening Aura on a target, the Knight may choose to gain a +2 bonus to attack, and a +2 to damage for one round to enemies that provoke attacks of opportunity, or have struck an ally since his last round.
While maintaining a Threatening Aura, the knight may choose to increase his threatened range by one additional square. When attacking those who move within these squares, the knight must move into a square that would otherwise strike the opponent, this movement does not count toward the Knights movement total.
The Knight may move up to his movement speed as part of this action, the Knight deals his CMD as part of this attack, and the knight and his target make opposed athletics checks, if the target fails, he is knocked back a number of squares in a direction of the Knight’s choosing.

When an ally is attacked by an opponent who has taken damage from Threatening Aura within the last round, the Knight may make an attack that deals double damage, has an extended critical strike range, and forces the target to attack him for the next full-round.

For one attack the Knight adds his shield's AC and DT to any target within his threatened range + 5 feet.
The Knight negates an amount of wounds equal to his constitution modifier for one round.
Enemies within 30 feet are cloaked in an aura of fear, they suffer a -2 penalty to die rolls for 1 round, and if the Knight is within sight, become frightened.
All enemy attacks within 30 feet may be deflected, parried, or absorbed by the knight. The cost to deflect an attack is 1 mana.
As part of this action the Knight makes an attack that deals his CMD. The Knight and his allies gain an additional +1 to all die rolls against the target. Only one creature may be targeted in such a way at one time. This effect only expires when a new target is declared.
The Knight strikes, dealing his CMD split evenly between Constitution and Willpower to the enemy. The Knight regains 1 wound for every four points of attribute damage dealt, and the enemy is forced to make a constitution save at what would be his new modifier in order to resist the damage.

The knight strikes an enemy that is not aggroed against him, the knight deals double damage and has a doubled critical strike range. If the target is slain, all targets that see the execution become mortified against the knight, else they become terrified. If the target is not slain it must attack from the knight or flee, and all other targets roll a 1 on all die rolls against all targets but the knight. The sight is so terrifying that it may only be performed a single time per combat, even if the display is not seen, the sounds are so terrifying that it's guarded against by all.
The knight may absorb all area of effect abilities within 30 feet of him. The knight may hold these abilities for his constitution modifier in rounds, when the blasts are released they're released in a 30 foot radius circle around him. The knight may choose to exclude any target from this blast.
The knight becomes unstoppable, removing and becoming immune to negative status effects, and not falling unconscious or dying from wounds. At the end of each round the Knight is forced to make a Will saving throw equal to 10+ the number of previous rounds. When the knight fails this saving throw these immunities are lost.
The Knight may include his base movement with this attack. He deals his class damage die to all foes he threatens at any point of his movement, and strikes at one targeted foe. This foe takes the damage die + 1d6 for each previously struck target, and must succeed on a Strength saving throw equal to the Knight's + 1 for each previously struck target or become tripped.
