Wis-based: Start as a Ninja for the ability to go invisible and Wis to AC. Progress as a druid, which also uses high Wis for spells, and can wildshape into powerful animals (check with your DM about which version of wildshape he/she uses.) Add a touch of Shiba Protector to add Wis to all your...

The hole is the entrance to a natural cavern of some sort. Though the entry itself is narrow, the light from Dzax's stone reveals a passageway inside. It looks tall enough for a man to hunch down and pass through; a dwarf might walk comfortably, but even dwarves would have to go single file...

I don't see why not, unless they are named bonuses of the same type (which in general do not stack.) Sounds like it will all work smoothly (I haven't the books with me to check wording) but let me ask you this: what are you accomplishing that is superior to a straight cleric build? Take...

- Use tumble a lot. Tumble in, flank, get your stunning fist sneak attack, strike once more, and tumble away before they can full attack you. - You're a rogue; you steal stuff. This meshes well with the fact that enemies drop whatever they are carrying when you stun them. You might not be...

Mind Spy is a really neat concept, but in terms of power I remember it being sub-par. You pretty much have to be a caster to get in, and it doesn't advance casting at all. I would probably only recommend it for doppelgangers, and even then it's questionable. If you really want to contribute...

Eliza smiles at Syut's parting comment without saying anything. After a careful search, the party succeeds in finding a hole in the ground concealed by shrubbery. It is close enough to be visible from the washing location, but the vegetation blocks the view. The hole is just wide enough for a...

I had a similar problem with a character that got detect magic at will, but as that was not permanent, I addressed it by noting that even if he wanted to reactivate it as soon as it fell, he would have to roll a random duration at the start of every battle. I don't really think detect magic is...

For the reason that there is a larger reduction that has yet to take place, and the feat specifies that multiple hours must turn into one hour. Everyone agrees that multiple hours to one hour is legal - where people disagree is on whether 1 hour can be broken into 60 minutes, one minute can be...

Maybe I didn't understand your initial objective statement, then. How is burying it and drowning/incinerating the survivors materially different from dismantling it? Okay, that would have been helpful to know before I suggested earth elementals to undermine the foundations :P If you don't...

Well, yes, you would need one level of Monk. Wis should be at least moderately high for a ranger, though, so that is not necessarily a bad thing. Kensai would also work, but it would have to be the dragon magazine one, and most DMs would not allow that.

Eliza leads the party out of the city, past towering stone structures and crenellated defensive towers. Men-at-arms stand out at every major junction, and the hustle and bustle indicate that the city is filled to bursting with refugees. The gate guards advise you to return before dark, and a...

Eliza waits patiently by the door, clothing in hand. "Whenever you're ready."

I'm still reading the thread, but my character hasn't been written in yet :P

Ask your DM what is expected of a Paladin of Torm. There's no way we can tell what your DM was thinking.

Also remember the Initiate feats can net you cool powers and extra spells. If you're going for flavor, that's one place to look.

I'm glad to see you did well. My overall concern would have been that at 15th level there are plenty of ways to kill you without dropping your hit points to -10. Fortunately, none of your enemies went for those.

Welcome. While your frustration is easy to identify with, there's not much difference between pointing you to the SRD and quoting it. For example, you asked about improved grab and brain extraction. Brain extraction is best thought of as a special combat option you have that kills an enemy if...

Can you pay for ultrablast, remembering the cap on points spent per power for all manifesting classes is limited by manifester level? You cannot. It costs 13 power points, and 13 is greater than your manifester level. Thus, you cannot manifest it. And thus, you cannot pick it. The apparent...

There are a few concepts that you would do well to familiarize yourself with. They arose in the evolution of competitive cleric building. They are: - Fighting better than a fighter - Using turn undead - Doing "un-clerical" things. I could literally write pages and pages about each, but...

There is an entire subforum full of characters like this. I'm not sure where it is after the site reorganization, but I remember seeing dozens of anime and movie characters turned into stat sheets.
