[QUOTE="BlakeT, post: 1831435, member: 21671"] Thanks everyone for the replies, I can't thank you enough for taking the time to give me all the info you have. I was hoping there was some 'official' source, aka a WoC source, where there was more info for goblin characters. I don't think I'd pick up that .pdf, as I'm cutting back on my purchases right now. I appreciate the suggestion though. As to what concept I was thinking about ... I was thinking of a sneak thief type, one that is a melee rogue (I know he won't be the best at it obviously). One that takes advantage of the sneak attack obviously. I was even thinking of eventually doing dual shortswords, though I realize the damage is lower because of the small size. I haven't talked to my DM about this yet as we're in the middle of an adventure right now. I will talk to him about it once we're finished and between adventures. It'll give me more time to think about it as well. I would see him needing Weapon Finesse, Two weapon fighting, Weapon Focus (shortsword), Improved Initiative. I'd imagine I would take the Weapon Finesse at level one as the bonus to hit would be important. So picture him as a lock picking, silent moving rogue type but one that does indeed enjoy mixing it up in combat. Sorry I haven't replied until now, it was a pretty busy weekend. [/QUOTE]
