Looking for the right class

[Mewness]

Does anyone know of a non-prestige class in D&D that:

- Gets full BAB, or something cool that makes up for not having it as a fighterish type, at least for a few levels
- Has Knowledge (Nobility) as a class skill
- Has no code of conduct or alignment restrictions?

Not to sound useless, but you could always make your own.

I believe the DMG thurougly discusses rearranging class features and such to make an entirely new class.

 

[Scion]

Barbarian with the 3.0 cosmopolitan feat?

The marshal comes close in a few ways, maybe that would help.

There is also a 3.5 feat that allows all knowledges as class skills I believe.

Or you could multiclass (one level fighter type, next level something with the skills you want, rinse/repeat)

Urban ranger variant with aristocratic background.

Choose a fighter (or barbarian, or ranger) class, and take Education feat at level one. It makes all Knowledge skills class skills, and gives +1 to two Knowledge skills of your choice.

Urban ranger/aristocrat--Ranger isn't listed as an option for aristocratic background, and I can't find anything that says that the listed skills are treated as class skills; the table merely requires you to spend points on them.

Education--The Education feat is not really right for the character. Knowledge Nobility is the only knowledge skill he should have.

I already knew about Marshal. I may end up using this option... He won't be playing to the strengths of the class because his Charisma isn't very good, but the Diplomacy bonus is still nice.

Or pick the Skill Prodigy feat from the Kalamars Players Guide... If your Int is high enough.

 

[Liquidsabre]

Education is the feat that provides all knowledge skills as class skills.
