The creature is a Lizardfolk Barbarian with the Feral template. I'm giving him pumped up jump, climb, balance, and tumble skills cuz I'm going to have him leaping up into the massive tree canopy then popping out again to attack, it's gonna be crazy and exciting. I also need him to have ridiculous movement speed so I chose both Barbarian and the Feral template; both also fit the story. I know I can do w/e I want as DM but my question is: Would the 10' from barbarian fast movement and the 10' speed from the feral template be cumulative under core rules? Furthermore, what are the limitations concerning movement speed increases? (e.g. a +1 luck bonus and a +2 morale bonus stack, but +2 morale bonuse overrides a +1 morale bonus.) Thanks for the knowledge fellas!
