[QUOTE="NotQuiteANoble, post: 8446978, member: 7029767"] Hello all. I'm building a character for an upcoming campaign I'm in. A changeling Ranger, and the child of a Druid(hence the shapechanging). However, I think that its interesting that a lot of traditions and tales are orally passed on, such as more ancient Druidic tales, hence a possible Bard multiclass. The plan was to grab Shillelagh through the Druidic warrior fighting style, and build for wisdom and charisma mainly. 5 levels in Ranger firstly, to get Extra Attack which with shillelagh's d8, hunters mark and dreadful strikes(Fey wanderer) should be pretty good damage. On top of that, I'd also be able to add that high wisdom to any charisma check as a Fey Wanderer. Now throw some Bard levels in(campaigns intended to go on for as long as we can, so I'm hoping). Due to Druids being a different religious system than the widespread one, anyone with druidic magic is naturally more stealthy or charismatic enough to divert attention. So perhaps Whispers Bard for some burst damage(even if it isn't great), Eloquence to aid with the setting, Glamour is naturally very Fey, and adds a but of combat utility. Lore however also really fits the idea of passing down oral traditions, Creation also suits the natural side of the character/ Theres also a lot of skills involved. 3 for ranger/2 background/1 for bard/2 changeling/1 Fey Wanderer/possibly 3 Lore Any thoughts/suggestions for the build? I think its fairly customisable, I just thought I'd include my choices for my own game [/QUOTE]
