So, I have a project going over in World-Building (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=256736). What new world would be complete without new feats? Since these are new feats, I figure I should get some critique on them in the general Homebrew Design. Keep in mind, these are meant for E6, so they give abilities that either fit the setting, or replace later abilities gained. There are more feats coming, but I figure there are enough that getting some PEACH now would be nice.

Desert King [General]
Requirements: Must be able to Turn or Rebuke Undead, Must be able to cast at least 2 spells from the Sand, Thirst, or Earth domain.
Benefit: Crellun recognizes your willingness to support the waste. He grants you a body that no longer needs to eat or drink. Also, you gain a touch attack which deals 1d8 dessication damage. You can use this attack 2/day in addition to being able to spend a Turn or Rebuke attempt to use this attack.

Flowcasting [General]

If you are uncertain of the direction of north, the DM rolls 1d4, with each number representing a direction, and then assigns a direction to each point in combat.

Any comments? I know there are a lot, but you don't have to look at all of them.
