Template or race for unseen seer build?

[bigbaddragon]

Hi all,

I'm joining a game soon and the DM is giving two free LA. Since I haven't had much experience with templates a question arise: which template or race would be good for unseen seer?

Also if the DM allows feats instead of those LA which one would you prefer?

Please name the source for your suggestions if possible at the moment.

Thanks

Unseen Seer? I don't know that one off the top of my head- can you tell us a bit about it?

Arcane prestige class with full spellcasting that progresses sneak attack and gains bonus to caster level for divination spell. Can obtain 3 divination spells from other classes lists and ad them to your own list. This is largely used to get Ranger's (I think) spell Hunter's Eye. This spell gives you 1d6 SA/3 CL for one round. After this its up to you which ray you'll use to deliver those sneak attacks . Something that would to well for this build would be a race/template with bonus to Int and Dex and decent stealth abilities, although this is not a priority because after gaining access to improved invisibility it would become less useful. Tiefling is solid but I really want that human bonus feat and skill point.

Unseen seer is from Complete Mage btw.

@ parinho7: thanks for suggestions.

Dark template from Tome of Magic, +1 LA but underrated for a sneak class.
Gives +6 on move silently, +8 on hide, hide in plain sight ability, resistance to cold 5, +10' move, darkvision 60'.......
I have a human/dark 7th spellthief in my campaign and it's a good choice for rogue type.

As I recall, the Winged template (Savage Species, +2LA?) gives some kind of nifty Dex bonus on top of the ability to fly...
