[QUOTE="Jackinthegreen, post: 5931161, member: 6678119"] First of all, how effective do you want him to be? TWF isn't all that useful unless you have extra damage dice like Sneak Attack or Skirmish. That or you take advantage of some of the material in Tome of Battle. What level will this be for? Are you expecting to go to 20, or will it need to be fully effective at a lower level? What books are allowed? These are especially critical because they limit your options. I took the liberty of looking up that character in your pic. Please, if you're going to ask for a character build, put up all the info right from the start. [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mace:_The_Dark_Age"]Mace: The Dark Age - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia[/URL] That sounds more like a swordsage to me, which is found on pages 15-20 in Tome of Battle. The Desert Wind maneuvers are described on pages 52-57 in Tome of Battle, and of note are scimitars, among other weapons, are favored for that discipline. Honestly though, an assassin can get good use out of all the disciplines accessible to swordsages. If you can, take a look and see if something jumps out at you. [/QUOTE]
