His more magical powers came from the Oath Runes he had carved into himself and his divine powers were more to do with the power granted by his powerful oaths than from Morodin.It plays a lot like a Trollslayer too. An Avenger is at his best when he is soloing the biggest nastiest thing around. Generally speaking, the group moves to engage the enemy, the Avenger then flies/teleports/shifts/phases past all of the enemies and jumps onto the boss at the back.By the time the party has battled its way through all the henchmen, they reach the boss only to find both him and the Avenger laying in a pool of each others blood. It is an exciting play style that lends itself well to RPing somebody with a deathwish.Dwarves may not have exactly perfect stats, however their ability to use Dwarven Weapon Training, is worth a bit, as is their ability to use second wind as a minor action. You will take a lot of beatings, so being able to self-heal without stopping the attack is pretty important. Other races are good too, I would say choose the one you like the look and theme of the most.The one feat you really want early on is Unarmored Agility. It gives a +2 feat bonus to AC which really helps the survivability. The ability to use an Executioners Axe is of course awesome too, even better if from Dwarven Weapon Training. Githzerai will want a Full-Blade though.P.S. Are you sold on the Bahamut stuff? It's just that Avengers lend themselves well to the more shadowy aspects of a religion. Maybe a cult focused on the justice aspect without much regard for the law? Avengers of the Raven Queen are fun, hunting down people who have cheated death in some way.</blockquote>
