Thanks in advance.

The reason why I was looking for it is because I`m playing a Dread Necromancer and I want to give this feat to one of my awakened skeleton followers. She ruins the enemy`s saves with Enervates or other curses, then uses her Ghostly Visage familiar`s Gaze Attack that bestows paralysis... the Skeleton`s job is to stand next to me with a scythe and delay it`s turn until after mine, when it can walk up to the enemy and finish them.

P.S. I just noticed that the feat has Improved Initiative as a prerequisite... that`s fine, seeing as Skeletons get that as a bonus feat.

P.P.S. The skeleton`s name will be Robespierre.
