[QUOTE="Elder-Basilisk, post: 107604, member: 3146"] Also worth considering: Ranger/Rogue (or fighter/rogue): Bounty hunter and scout. You track down the enemies of your king and bring them to justice. (Dual wield saps for massive sneak attack subdual damage if the king wants them alive). If you want to be a church bounty hunter (or inquisitor) with Holy powers, toss in cleric and/or paladin levels for added fun. (This is also a great way to qualify for the Consecrated Harrier prestige class in DotF). Rogue/Wizard: This is actually a superlative combination--particularly if you know what you're getting into. IMHO, wizard actually multiclasses better than sorceror. Play a specialist and you'll have almost as many spells per day as a sorceror but much more flexibility in which ones you cast. (Consider a level 2/3 rogue/illusionist with Mage Armor, Expeditious Retreat, Feather Fall, Spider Climb, Cat's Grace, Invisibility, and change self (for impersonating a guard on the way out) prepared. As a rogue/sorceror, he'd be limited to three first level spells and no second levels. Message is also worth considering as a spell since it will allow you to communicate your findings to your party if scouting ahead in a dungeon or coordinate with a lookout if breaking into a building. Barbarian/Roge: This tribesman from the far North doesn't lose his wits when he loses his temper. He's always got a dirty trick up his sleeve. If need be, he can talk his way out of trouble too. (Plus, he can run away quickly if both fighting and talking fail). Rogue/Bard: A charismatic performer and con-man who doesn't use much magic but can handle himself in a fight. His razor sharp wit encourages his companions in a fight (if your DM allows peform (witty reparte) and you've got the savior faire to manage it). [/QUOTE]
