Looking for a Swordmage idea

[Herschel]

Hmmm, Dwarven Swordmage w/ Khopesh....that's definitely an idea.

The Genasi Sorcerer concept I like from a flavor standpoint are Storm and Chaos due to that whole primordial thing. Dragon and Cosmic are mechanically fine but just feel "wrong" to me.

I suppose I could stick with the Genasi Avenger and try to build in some defender concepts (multiclassing, etc.) too. The double roll could mitigate the under-18 primary stat and go Fullblade for the +3 proficiency.

Genasi aren't that bad sorcerers (chose dragon or cosmic to take advantage of +2 STR)

Feh. Genasi Wizards can add their Str bonus to all their spells anyway (assuming choice of elemental-keyword spells).

Genasi Wizard who thinks he's a Sorcerer... that might be interesting.

Of course, you can always grab a Khopesh.

Brilliant.

Try building a shielding swordmage that only uses a spiked shield.
