[QUOTE="Rystil Arden, post: 2174922, member: 29014"] It depends on exactly how far I would be allowed to change the mechanics. Some ideas: The way I see it, Shalah has several interesting sides that could be reflected by different choices. I see her as a character who was at first obedient to the wishes of those in charge of her life (Lawful Good) but slowly became rebellious and Chaotic, to the point where she escaped the harem and became a proponent of Freedom. As a gestalt character, she really has two halves, which I can address one at a time: Caster half (currently BoEMII Bard): Clearly this should be some kind of specialist in enchantment type effects, but I don't have BoEMII, and if I could switch it to Telepath, Enchanter, or Sorcerer, in order of preference, without causing consistency problems, that would be awesome! Skills and racial half (currently Geniekin3/Rog4/Seductress4): I don't see this list of classes as such a logical progression. I'd prefer something more along the lines of starting as Monk to reflect her obedience early in life [and the OOC thread says that some harems have this sort of training] then switching to Seductress as she moved to Neutral Good, and finally Rogue and or maybe Paladin of Freedom (I know the setting doesn't have any of the armoured Lawful Good chivalrous knight Paladins, but I thought UA's Paladin of Freedom might be a natural fit for Shalah once she escaped from the harem, especially considering the fate of her dagger/friend) after she escaped and became truly Chaotic and independent (I'm not sure that Shalah would have continued advancing in Seductress once she was free from the harem, and at most I'd think she would advance hesitantly, only taking levels every once in a while). Depending on how much of this is acceptable, I'd like to change skill, feat, magic item, and ability score selection a tad as well. Oh and specific feat question: Nymph's Kiss from BoED seems perfect (I mean she does have a Half-Nymph lover, right?) Would it be OK to make her exalted? She seems that way from "However, she is a deeply caring woman, and dislikes to hurt anyone’s feelings, instead wishing to spread only pleasure and happiness wherever she treads." [/QUOTE]
