[Shade]

Updated.

That's one nice kukri!

DR 15?

SR = CR +11 again?

Bluff, Concentration, Craft (x), Diplomacy, Intimidate, Knowledge (arcana), Knowledge (nature), Listen, Sense Motive, Spellcraft, Spot, Tumble, Use Magic Device

I'm thinking of some Craft appropriate for magic item creation (perhaps constructs of some sort?) and UMD for faking alignment. How's that look?

 

[demiurge1138]

Craft Wondrous, Craft Arms and Armor and Craft Construct are all pretty good. I can see her controlling a Golden Army.

 

[freyar]

So would Craft (weaponsmithing) be the appropriate skill, then?

 

[demiurge1138]

Sure?

 

[Shade]

Lookin' good! I like the Golden Army idea.

The "metallic" golems tend to use Craft (armorsmithing) or (weaponsmithing), while the stone and clay use (sculpting).

I'd say (armorsmithing) or (weaponsmithing) is a given, and poach ranks from Diplomacy for (sculpting) if we'd like her to have stone constructs.

 

[freyar]

We can also poach ranks from UMD or Tumble probably, as those won't be her main schticks.

So we've got 3 feats: Craft Wondrous Item, Craft Magic Arms and Armor, and Craft Construct. Weapon Finesse also seems important for her. Perhaps we should pick spells before choosing the rest of the feats, though.

 

[Shade]

It would make the spell lists easier if we picked the metamagic feats first for a change.

 

[freyar]

Well, I guess I was thinking about the Spell Focus feats, but we can always just fill them in with the appropriate school later if we want.

Just a question while I ponder what epic feats to aim toward: what are the 4 metamagic feats the Faerie Queen uses as prereqs for Improved Metamagic? I only get 3, and that's counting Automatic Quicken. Do the Improved Spell Capacity feats count?

 

[demiurge1138]

OK. Deep breath. It's time to write a draft of the spell list:
