[QUOTE="TremorFang, post: 5828440, member: 93711"] So, while rolling around fun and silly character builds I came across the style feat: Monkey Style. [I]Prerequisite: Wis 13, Improved Unarmed Strike, Acrobatics 5 ranks, Climb 5 ranks. Benefit: You add your Wisdom bonus on Acrobatics checks. While using this style, you take no penalty on melee attack rolls or to AC while prone. Further, you can crawl and stand up from lying prone without provoking attacks of opportunity, and you can stand up as a swift action if you succeed at a DC 20 Acrobatics check.[/I] This gave me the idea to make a sort of prone fighter, someone that excels more at fighting in the prone position, as well as sneaking and crawling in it. So obviously first level monk (master of many styles) to gain the monkey style feat with ease. Unless the master of many styles archetype isn't needed to pick this up, then even better. Name: Crawly McCrawlington Level 3 Human Monk 1/Rogue 2 Stats: High Dex 16-18 (maybe 20), Second Wis, Then Str, Con, Int, and Cha. Weapon: (Agile) If its affordable. 1st Lv : Dodge (1st feat), Weapon Finesse (Human feat), Monkey Style (Bonus) 2nd Lv: Sneak attack +1d6, trapfinding (rogue abilities) 3rd Lv: Evasion, Rogue Talent (Rogue Crawl) While most likely not nearly effective as other builds, just the thought of sneaking up on enemies while crawling prone of the floor and stabbing them from said position is kind of amusing. Anything you would suggest adding / subtracting? Better yet, any really silly and fun build ideas, that could be still effective, that you've come up with that you're willing to share? Let me know what you think. :) [/QUOTE]
