That's interesting... I'd glanced at it before, but never really read it. Hmmmm... -Stuart

My impression was that Wildshape (now based on Alternate Form) no longer changes your type - so you'd look like a living animal, but be undead (and lack a Con score). -Stuart

As I said, this is more a thought experiment than anything else. -Stuart

No problem. For something in the CR 6-12 range, I'd probably stat him up as a formerly-human Rogue 3/Fighter 4ish with ranks in Ride and the Mounted Combat and Ride-by Attack feats. Stick him on a Fiendish (or skeletal) Warhorse. For a nastier version, make him a Blackguard and/or put him on a...

I've been thinking about this. I just went and posted up a Headless One template on my blog. Hope that is helpful. -Stuart

[edit: wasn't paying attention to what you were responding to. sorry.] Well - two substandard feat choices, one of which (Practiced Spellcaster) is likely useless to you.... plus the loss of Wizard bonus feats and familiar advancement. I know. Multiclassing with spellcasters, though, is...

Okay. The capstone ability was meant only to apply to the class that the GM spellcasting applies to - and to caster levels for those spells. I realize this is still broken. Here's a question, though: would it cease to be broken if it were a 10-level class with the capstone ability at level 10...

The following is an idea for a five-level prestige class that I just thought up while thinking about the Abjurant Champion. Let me know how broken you think it is. -Stuart Gifted Mage Hit Die d4. Requirements To qualify to become a gifted mage, a character must fulfill all the following...

Some thoughts: Skills - There's no reason you can't buy cross-class skills with your skill points from racial HD. Also, no Bluff or Intimidate for a political rabble-rouser? Saves - Should be Fort 7 / Ref 6 / Will 6, I think. -Stuart

If you can, you might want to consider Marshall instead of Bard - the Auras are faster to enact, improve with your Charisma, and all of your abilities are usable in heavy armor. -Stuart

Dire Wolverine is nice, too. -Stuart

What sort of CR are you looking at? You could always use a standard undead type - say a wight (with some ranks in ride - or maybe some class levels and mounted combat feats) on a skeletal horse (or a nightmare if you are feeling nasty). Say that it doesn't have a head (and is blind), but give...

If you mean a living +0 LA class, I'd use something like the Changeling from Eberron - and create a race-specific Fleshwarper prestige class. -Stuart

I'm thinking that this might need Lesser/Greater varieties that are limited by spell level. -Stuart

Well, that wasn't its primary intended use. There are tons of spells that can be used with this. Here are a few: Animate Objects Animate Rope Antipathy Arcane Lock Dimensional Lock Explosive Runes Fire Trap Glyph of Warding Grease Invisibility Sphere Light Mage Hand Magic Weapon Mending...

Okay. Some restrictions: - You cast a spell on the replica. It takes effect upon the actual item. The spell must be one which can target the actual item or a point in space occupied by an object (such as an emanation-type spell). Glyph of Warding works. Fireball doesn't. - The object the spell...

Kind of a demotion from Lieutenant Governor... Need inspiration? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_famous_fictional_butlers -Stuart

I'd suggest Beguiler. It would shore up the skills-weakness of the group and provide you with a dedicated utility caster. -Stuart

Picking up a cool Martial Strike from Bo9S via a feat (at 6th level or higher) might not be a bad idea. It would synergize well with Skirmish, since you wouldn't be making a full attack anyway. If you want to be terrifying in combat, you can always go Dervish eventually. -Stuart
