[QUOTE="Lackhand, post: 4201993, member: 36160"] Good thing your example hewed so closely to what was available in the PHB, without a bit of kitbashing, in 3e! :D Ignoring the race, I see 0 reason you couldn't continue to be a wizard with a bit of warlock, or a warlock (depending on pacts available) straight. It sounds like what you [i]really[/i] want is psion/beguiler/telepath, mind you, but I think a wizard with the right powers could work perfectly well. The skill-related portions seem to be easier than ever to model, since you do the Diplomacy/Perform thing. Skill challenges FTW! The crafting: A bit of an unknown. Still, we know that we're getting rules for this, so nab them for your character, whatever they end up being. The lack of skill ranks in Craft(Dongle) shouldn't stop you from continuing to be a craftspixie extraordinaire. With race included, it depends heavily on how important the "stuff" pixie nets you is to you. Invisibility will be included [i]gratis[/i] from your class choice already; how important is being size tiny (mechanically) to you? Talk to the DM; I'd imagine playing an eladrin and scaling yourself down should be doable. You might have to be a really *big* pixie, if the DM isn't up to housecat-sized-PCs in a new rules system, though. I don't blame him :) [/QUOTE]
