I'm playing a pixie! What class should I be?

Be a Cha-based Warlord/Warlock (MC or hybrid)- gripe about how your party mates are lousy at tactics.

IOW, "Pixie Bitching."

Warlock or Bard, with Warlord MC, works well with this. Take both Warlord feats that kick in when the player spends an action point and watch the party tear the opponents up, as they envision chopping the Pixie into even tinier bits.

Your Armour Class will be mediocre, so be careful.

Not sure how you work that out. 10 + 4 (Int mod) + 1 (half level) + 2 (leather armour or Unarmored Agility) + 3 (Swordmade Warding, assuming the off hand is free) = a very respectable 20.

As for the change of plans: Although your stat bonuses don't support it, I'd like to suggest being a Shaman. You could always reflavour the spirit companion as also being a pixie, making the enemy believe that there's more than one of you.

Personally, I don't think Shaman fits well with the OP's character concept of "dark fae...selfishness combined with a distinct lack for solid moral guidelines, this character would be cruel, spoiled, and hellbent on making mischief."

Truthfully, I've had a problem trying to fit most of the leader classes with my character concept. Leaders focus on aiding their allies rather than themselves, and I'm kind of stuck on how to combine the two.

Perhaps I should go for a different concept all together.

 

[Dannyalcatraz]

Leaders can also use others to selfishly further their own ends- better that fighter takes on that foe than he get to me!- so its not the role.

I just don't see the shaman in particular being a good fit.

Artificer who considers the other PCs his test subjects?

You know, Dr. Zachary Smith of Lost in Space was a classic "leader from the rear"- despite being an expert in interstellar environmental psychology, Cybernetics and an enemy agent/saboteur, he is constantly telling others what to do...often while retreating/hiding.

Brilliant, egotistical, helpful (when it suited him), selfish and cowardly...but still a leader in many ways.

I've thought about it lately, but not very hard, and I think what you need is a --
slightly-illicit, rogue-complicit, peevishly perplexing, prurient, prescient, piccolo-playing pixie bard -- all high-pitched and shrill.
