Message: <blockquote data-quote="Psion" data-source="post: 2783273" data-attributes="member: 172">Thought I'd dump a few stats I've been using. Sorry if the stat blocks aren't neatly formatted.I'm interested in item help for my Psion villain (scroll down).First on the hit parade is Edward "D" Sabaka, the NPC first mate, swaggerer, cat-juggler, and rapier master. Edward's catch line is to introduce himself as "Edward Deee Sabaka. D stands for" {insert appropriate D-word}.Edward D. Sabaka, male half-elf Bard 5 / Rapier Master4:  CR 9; Size M (5 ft., 9 in. tall); HD 5d6+5 + 3d8+3; hp 47; Init +2 (+2 Dex); Spd 30 ft.; AC 19 (+2 Dex, +3 Dodge, +4 leather armor +2); Attack +9 melee, or +10 ranged; SV Fort +3, Ref +10, Will +5; AL NG; Str 12, Dex 14, Con 12, Int 14, Wis 10, Cha 16.    Languages Spoken:  Common, Elven.    Skills and feats:  Balance +10 (8), Bluff +11 (6), Climb +6 (5), Diplomacy +7 (4), Hide +3 (1), Jump +6 (5), Gather Information +9 (6), Perform (Juggle) +11 (8), Perform (Sing) +7, Profession (Sailor) +6 (6), Sense Motive +4 (4), Speak Language +4 (4), Swim +4 (3), Tumble +10 (8); Careful Attack*, Dodge, Expertise, Fencing Stance*, Lunge*, Setting the Target Up*, Silver Tongue, Weapon Focus (Rapier).    Possessions:  5,600 gp  in gear.    Bard Spells Known (3/4/2):  0th -- Dancing Lights, Know Direction, Mage Hand, Mending, Open/Close, Read Magic.  1st -- Disguise Self, Erase, Identify, Undetectable Alignment.  2nd -- Eagle's Splendor, Hold Person, Mirror Image.  * - Feat from Masters of Arms:Careful Attack (Ex, Combination)Too many people attempt to do everything at once, and fail miserably as a result. By slowing down the pace of the fight and taking your time with your attacks you can increase your chance of a hit.Prerequisites: Dodge, Weapon Focus (Rapier)    Allowed Weapons: rapier    Benefit: For this two step combination you sacrifice your first attack to gain a +8 maneuver bonus to hit with the second attack.Fencing Stance (Ex):    Prerequisites: Weapon Focus (Rapier)    Benefit: You may enter or leave this stance as a free action. While in this stance you gain a +2 Dodge bonus against one opponent that you designate. You may not make use of a shield while in this stance.Setting the Target up (Ex, Combination)    You make a quick strike near the target’s head or some vital organ to draw their attention. However, this is just a feint and you quickly follow with another strike to a more vulnerable location.    Prerequisites: Weapon Focus with weapon used    Benefit: With this two-step maneuver you sacrifice your first attack to gain a maneuver bonus of +3 to hit, +3 damage, and double the critical threat range with the second step.Lunge (Ex, Combination)    Most fencers learn how to do this early in life since, by stepping outward and leading with your blade, you not only extend your reach but also the force with which you strike. As fencers age they continue to do this until they realize that they’re mostly just causing additional damage to their pants.    Prerequisites: Weapon Focus with weapon used    Allowed Weapons: any sword    Benefit: This is one of the rare maneuvers where you give up later attacks for a bonus on the initial step. For this two step combination you make the initial lunging attack;  you have +5 feet of reach with this and gain a maneuver bonus of +1 to hit and +2 to damage. However, you spend the second step returning to your original position and stance.A half elf of somewhat humble beginnings, Edward is a troubadour and adventurer of high aspirations. He has learned a bit of fencing and hopes to someday enter both the prestigious fighting schools and minstrel academy of Tai. Along the way, he hopes to encounter a little adventure and swoon a few maidens. Surely, that's not the only adventure he's going to encounter.  Quotes: "D is for dangerous," or "D is for dashing," or "D is for daring," etc.</blockquote>
