She can take levels in Sorceress and Aristocrat. Aristocrat is an okay NPC class, d8 HD, average attack BAB, good skills, simple and martial weapons, all armor and shields. Her primary attributes are probably Dex and Cha, as she won't be wearing much armor.I guess I'd recommend either level 6 Sorcerer, or level 4 Sorcerer/level 2 Aristocrat. In either case, she should take the Leadership feat, and you get to roleplay her sidekick cohort. The sidekick is important: it gives you a helpful NPC to steer her through some potential newbie mistakes. A 4th level Paladin, Fighter, or Rogue might be appropriate as her cohort. The rest of the followers: maids-in-waiting, butler, etc., get left at the castle (besides she won't have many of them). For the adventure, I'd concentrate on the roleplaying, rather than hack-and-slash. What troubles her kingdom? Is she sent as ambassador somewhere? Are there suitors lined up to marry her? Is there pressure from her parents to marry? Is she one of the last in a long line of daughters to the crown, and rather unimportant ... now is her chance to seize the spotlight! Is the princess pining for some low-class squire? Is there a knight who will be her champion, but his friendship is doomed to always be chaste. Maybe she gets kidnapped, a band of ruffians want to ransom her, she escapes, then needs to make it back home while hiding her identity (for fear of discrediting her parents).Ideally, set it in a setting that both your wife and you are familiar with. That way, she knows some of the background mythology.Get your wife to write down goals for her character, as you roleplay. That's very helpful in building the game world to interact well with the character and give useful plot hooks that the character will be interested in.Just some thoughts ...</blockquote>
