[QUOTE="Kafkonia, post: 3237083, member: 40261"] There's a new race in the second Hordes of the Abyss book. It's not technically undead, but the schtick is basically "repented at the last possible moment and returned to life to prove his worth." I'm not sure I like it as a race -- it sounds more like either a template or a class -- but then I didn't buy the book so it's not for me to worry about. Necropolitan is good too. I believe there is a +1 LA race from an issue of Dragon called the... Grave Touched? It's listed in the "list of races" pdf from Crystal Keep. My first thought when you said he wanted a curse was the Hexblade, but it's only vaguely a caster and can be underpowered depending on the game, so you might be better served to look at one of the other suggestions, like the Warlock. Or he could build a sorcerer around the idea of "cursing" his opponents. Through careful feat and spell selection, and the use of the various alternate class abilities and substitution levels, you can get a lot of different flavours from that class. [/QUOTE]
