[QUOTE="Knightfall, post: 958795, member: 2012"] I like the idea of variant classes. Case in point, the variant core classes in FFGs L&L Path of the Sword sourcebook. [b][i]FULLY FLESHED OUT VARIANTS[/i][/b] [b]The Commander[/b] - embodies the leader/warrior, from mercenary boss to the noble knight. * Good will saves * 3 + Int for skills. * Bonus feats (x6) and special command ability. * Command I to V (command bonuses to allies, similar to bard inspiration abilities but without singing) [b]The Hunter[/b] - more focused tracker/slayer ranger variant. * good fort and will saves. * No alignment restriction. * d10 * Special abilities: Chosen foe (x5), night stalker, trackless step, merciful strike, sense foe, forceful strike, weak spot, inescapable pursuit. [b]The Outdoorsman[/b] - tough and rugged fighter/ranger cross that is at home in the wild. * Good fort and reflex saves. * Favored terrain * Preferred weapon * Bonus feats (x5) * Animal companion * Fast passage * Lightstep * Bestial companion * Magical companion [b][i]SHORTER VARIANTS[/i][/b] [b]Urban Warrior[/b] - city-based fighter, who has spent little time outside the walls of his hometown. Same as fighter except for: * no bonus fighter feat at 1st level. * 4 + Int skill points. * Expanded class skill list - more rogue like. * new Urban Lore skill is a nice addition to skill selection. [b]Seeker of Wisdom[/b] - Mok who combines quest for inner development with quest for knowledge. Same as monk except for: * Altered class skills. * Only allowed three of the listed monk weapons. [b]Ghost Hunter[/b] - Same as monk except for: * must be LN or LG * Altered class skills. * 1/ day - can turn undead as a cleric of half his class level. No extra turning. * fortitude save progression as per rogue. These are excellent core class variants, IMO. Buy the book, you'll be glad you did just for this one section. Cheers! KF72 [/QUOTE]
