[QUOTE="Bad Paper, post: 2730524, member: 24674"] [b]My personal weirdo...[/b] ...just died (this is his first death, as opposed to the three deaths of the character he is replacing, ha ha ha). Thank you RttToEE! We brought him back, almost good as new. Anyway, he is currently a human Fleshwarper 1/Monk 1/Ranger 1/Wizard 5. Munchkin much? I know, I know, but it's hard to meet the prereqs for the Fleshwarper (from Lords of Madness). He's going to stick with the Fleshwarper thing as long as he can. The biggest drawback is the compulsory grafting [use-it-or-lose-it] of the PrC, and RttToEE is not known for being patient with item-crafters. If he can't keep up with the grafting, he'll just keep pursuing Wizard (all his spells are buffs). Note that his death was naturally caused by a particularly effective [i]Dispel Magic[/i] followed by a Very Mean Giant; I have not had the chance to squeeze in Practiced Spellcaster yet. He took three feats from LoM: Aberrant Blood (flexible limbs), Inhuman Reach, and Deepspawn. Inhuman Reach lets him swing that greataxe of his at targets 10' away (though all melee attacks are at -1; in practice this is pretty balanced, particularly as part of a feat chain), and the combination of Aberrant Blood, Deepspawn, and Improved Grapple (note the monk level) give him an extra +8 on grapple checks. When buffed, his grapple mod is +25. And he gets two secondary tentacle natural attacks! yay munchkin! His aesthetic goal in all this is [b]insectoid[/b]: pursue the silthilar chitin-plating grafts for natural armor, and then undead, fiendish, and illithid grafts for lots of bug stuff: antennae, claws, stinger tail, mandibiles, etc. And the Secret of the Beholder from the Fleshwarper's Elder Secrets will give him the nice touch of bug-eyes. Anyway, I'm pretty happy with the stuff from Lords of Madness. Check out the half-farspawn template as well. EDIT: if you want to see him: [url]http://www.campaign-blog.com/view.php?id=688[/url] Note that I haven't updated his familiar's info (familiar is now an aberration, a weasel with bat-wings and darkvision) [/QUOTE]
