Continue as a Rogue past 2nd level.  I'd put the 18 into Cha, the next highest into Dex, then the next highest into Con or Int.  The bad part about this is it willn't work until 2nd level then willn't work fully until your second feat.Plus, many DMs are liable to have powerful enemies use evil weapons that give negative levels to good wielders.  Laugh as you run around in a evil cloak of the archmagi (that the DM didn't consider as treasure because he didn't think anyone could use it.)Of course, this relies on a good deal of wealth on behalf of the character.  It depends on how close or far your DM sticks to the treasure guidelines and how easy it is to buy scrolls/wands.</blockquote>
