[QUOTE="Shayuri, post: 5134395, member: 4936"] Made some changes to the DDI file to reflect new options made available since this project started. Should be a final draft unless someone has a last-minute suggestion or error correction. I added the Battle Staff +2 to fill in for the [B]Staff of the Walking Dead, Level 9 (4,200 gp)[/B] Enhancement: +2 bonus to attack rolls and damage rolls Critical: +1d6 necrotic damage per plus Power (Daily): Free action. Use this power when using a power with the necrotic keyword. After you resolve the power, all enemies within 3 squares of you are weakened (save ends). Power (Daily): Standard action. Summon a standard undead creature of 1/2 the caster's level or lower. Summoned creature uses summoner's actions to perform actions, and uses the caster's attack bonus (modified by implement) instead of its own. Other powers, damage, and effects are as per Monster Manual entry. It's the same cost and level, and has the same enhancement bonus. One question about the Staff of the Walking Dead...should its Daily power perhaps be a 'summon undead' thing? Or was that just a power the pixie had that it was using the staff as an implement for? The character builder file is included as a template so you can have a complete look at her build. Tentatively, I think she'll be pretty effective.

She hasn't got many rituals, but will be decent at them once I buy some. The ceremony she summoned Shazi with was a ritual scroll, so...there. :) Shazi himself is pretty cool and should make a good forward scout with his invisibility and flying.
