[QUOTE="Twichyboy, post: 6140512, member: 89804"] Hello everyone, I'm currently involved in a 3.5 game of dnd, and since we have a small party I am give the chance to create another character to balance out our party, insofar we have Me, a Gnome paladin AC tank and a dire badger mount A strength based Orc Archer class fighter who is our DPS and a Dragon Shaman who does, you know I don't know way he does, but so far it's been nothing So obviously we are missing a caster, a skill monkey, and a healer. So I was thinking Bard, but the problem with that is that our DM is out for blood, and considering all of our characters have high AC, he would only ever target the bard in combat and he would probably diets ther quickly. I know this because this is the second character I have designed for this role, and the first one died rather quickly. so I've also been thinking a tanky favored soul would round out the role, but then we would be out a skill monkey, and bardic music, which was nice while we had it. So does anyone have any ideas? I'm hoping for a melee focused character so he can hook me and my mount up with flanking bonuses, but I'm open to just about anything. Also if it helps, we are level 4 [/QUOTE]
