Message: <blockquote data-quote="ScottB" data-source="post: 2398960" data-attributes="member: 30614">I am trying to pull off a jack of all trades build, and for such I stumbled upon the Fochlucan Lyrist prestige class, in CA pg. 47. I see only a few downsides, and it is on these which I have questions (I want to be better armed before I see my DM). First, and most doubtful, is there any way to take levels in this PrC before character level 11? It requires 13 ranks in Perform, which is why I ask. Is there some shady but letter legal way of routing around this? If I can’t take levels in this until 11, what should I do in the meantime?  Second, since the class requires Evasion, I am interested in unique ways of getting this. I don’t really want 1d6 of sneak attack, and Monk is less useful as I plan on (with DM approval) using the alternate Druid class variant found in UA, pg. 58 (this gives a mix of monk and ranger abilities in exchange for wild shape, armor and shield proficiency; check it out). I’ve checked for Evasion from OA, but I didn’t see anything so useful. Dishearteningly, Ninja doesn’t grant Evasion either. Are there any PrC’s providing Evasion in the first two levels for which I would qualify (as a Bard 1/(arcane caster) 1/Druid (variant) 1+)? How about other basic classes? Last, does anyone have any suggestions for an arcane caster class to take with this? I have been thinking Wizard (because I want to be able to do everything), but I would more enjoy something offbeat or unusual, or at least some interesting variant rules. I’m not sure why, but I want to play a character as bizarre and unexpectedly able as possible. Thanks for the help, everybody.</blockquote>
