[QUOTE="IcyCool, post: 2988381, member: 20308"] So, option 4 then? ;) Well, according to the assassin fluff in the DMG, spies excel at infiltration and disguise, and often act as spies and informants. Death Attack can be used to paralyze. As to True Strike, Locate Creature, and Poison being assassin oriented, tell that to the wizard and druid. As far as bonuses to disguise are concerned, how about the +10 from disguise self or alter self? Not to mention its a class skill and prerequisite. And Locate Creature is a very effective spell for a spy. Good point on the poison use though. Invisibility, Alter Self, Disguise Self, Clairvoyance/Clairaudience, Glibness, Modify Memory, Search and Bluff as class skills. Because the PrC would look exactly like the assassin, minus a few prerequisites (I would probably ditch poison use), and can't see why that wouldn't get shot down "because there's already a prestige class for that". And honestly, this is about as much effort as I'd like to throw at this. Basically, I could argue this, or propose a big change (or new PrC), or I could skip the concept, or I could change the 'N' in the 'LN' I was envisioning to an 'E' and go murder some farmer's wife. Your feat suggestions for a rogue enhance the assassin just as much. [/QUOTE]
