Anyone know of a way to affect a supernatural ability, or does it just do what it does with no way to change it in a positive or negative way? I ask for the purposes of affecting dice rolls (maximizing or empowering) or adding damage or dice.

My interest comes from the use of reserve feats. In my mind, I don't see why I couldn't add the warmage edge damage or the divine damage from holy scourge to, say, a fiery burst, or change the save DC based upon having levels of elemental savant or spell focus. From reading the rules, I believe this isn't possible, but I am open to others interpretations.

As written, there is nothing open in LG that can alter those abilities, with the exception of taking ability focus to increase the DC of the save. There are a few possible tricks using Heighten Spell to increase the damage/affects of reserve feats as well.

Tome of Magic has some options under the feats available to Binders (Empower Supernatural Ability, Extend Supernatural Ability, etc).

Tome of Magic is NONC, so you would have to get a special mission for it.
