Looks good, what about my proposal of Humanoid (elf) and Aberration for the favoured enemy?
Might as well.
We'd better cost up the Shadowdancer prereqs first:
Perform (dance) 5 ranks - better be from Rogue, since it's a class skill.
Move Silently 8 ranks & Hide 10 ranks - can be from Rogue, Ranger or Shadowdancer. I'm thinking we might as well max out both.
For the other skills, how's this:
Rogue (45SPs)
Bluff 5?
Jump 5?
Hide 5?
Move Silently 5?
Perform 5
Search 5?
Sense Motive 5?
Tumble 5?
Use Magic Device 5?
Ranger (35)
Knowledge (dungeoneering) 5
Hide 5?
Move Silently 5?
Listen 7?
Spot 7?
Survival 6?
Shadowdancer (21)
Hide 3?
Move Silently 3?
Listen 5?
Spot 5?
Sleight of Hand 5?
Total
Bluff 5?
Jump 5?
Hide 13?
Knowledge (dungeoneering) 5?
Listen 12?
Move Silently 13?
Perform 5?
Search 5?
Sense Motive 5?
Sleight of Hand 5?
Spot 12?
Survival 6?
Tumble 5?
Use Magic Device 5?

Love it.
Overall, pretty good. I'd like to see more Tumble, though. How about dropping the Search ranks? I could also live without the Knowledge (dungeoneering) ranks.

I'd like to keep the 5 ranks in Dungeoneering and Search for the synergy bonuses.
Although, like you, I'd like to increase Tumble. How about cutting out the Jump to make it Jump 0, Tumble 10?

Shouldn't we figure out some equipment for him/her?
Although I guess that could wait until after the template.
