Hope you like this.  I got so into the character I may play him next.The premise is a vampire/undead hunter who was tainted during his adventures as a youth while exploring an ancient crypt. In an attempt to remove his curse he traveled to a remote temple of The Raven Queen where he was informed that it was too late to remove his curse, but that The Raven Queen might offer him a boon for his services if he took up her standard. Vlaad has spent the past 15 years attempting to please his deity. As a result he has gained the ability to use the Oath of Emnity class feature a few times per encounter. He takes this blessing a sign of her pleasure and continues to seek out necromancers, vampire enclaves, and restless undead in hopes that some day she will grant him a reprieve from his cursed existence.I've added flavor and build appropriate magical items (purchasing an additional level 8 and level 4 item with his 5,000 gold at paragon level). The house rule requirement: Convince your DM to let you use a hand crossbow (free load already) as your "ranged offhand weapon" for most Maurauder build powers, and your offhand Handax as your melee weapon. I think Rule of Cool should prevail in this case, as it's not really a stretch to think you can use them in this manner. The only really technical fudge is using strength for a hand crossbows attack modifier.The feats/items/powers, etc., are built around gaining hps or temp hps when you fell an enemy (a nod to the vampiric nature of the character) and having an uber-skirmisher feel to the character, flitting around the battlefield and doling out your divine wrath.I would use the Cloistered Priest Background and call it something else.====== Created Using Wizards of the Coast D&D Character Builder ======Vlaad, level 11Human, Ranger, Unveiled VisageBuild: Marauder RangerMulti-Class: Avenger Feats granting Oath of Emnity x2Fighting Style: Marauder Fighting StyleRanger: Running AttackBackground: Cloistered Priest (Cloistered Priest Benefit)FINAL ABILITY SCORESStr 20, Con 11, Dex 14, Int 11, Wis 20, Cha 9.STARTING ABILITY SCORESStr 17, Con 10, Dex 13, Int 10, Wis 15, Cha 8.AC: 23 Fort: 25 Reflex: 23 Will: 24HP: 73 Surges: 6 Surge Value: 18TRAINED SKILLSHeal +15, Nature +15, Stealth +11, Dungeoneering +15, Athletics +14, Perception +15, Acrobatics +11, Religion +13UNTRAINED SKILLSArcana +5, Bluff +4, Diplomacy +4, Endurance +4, History +5, Insight +10, Intimidate +4, Streetwise +4, Thievery +6FEATSHuman: Vampiric HeritageLevel 1: Hero of FaithLevel 2: Manticore's FuryLevel 4: Lethal HunterLevel 6: Night's SightLevel 8: Vicious AdvantageLevel 10: Hobbling StrikeLevel 11: Disciple of Divine WrathPOWERSBonus At-Will Power: Throw and StabRanger at-will 1: Marauder's RushRanger at-will 1: Hit and RunRanger encounter 1: Hurling ChargeRanger daily 1: Skirmishing StanceRanger utility 2: Invigorating StrideRanger encounter 3: Parting StrikeRanger daily 5: Bloody ThrowRanger utility 6: Weave Through the FrayRanger encounter 7: Toppling RushRanger daily 9: Invigorating ConfrontationRanger utility 10: Blood of the FallenITEMSBloodcut Hide Armor +2, Point Blank Hand Crossbow +2, Lifedrinker Handaxe +2, Tracker's Eye, Embalm, Long-Distance Runner, Uncanny Strength, Khyber Shard of Life Drinking (heroic tier), Surprise Bullet +1, Quickhit Braces (heroic tier), Wildrunners (heroic tier), Horned Helm (heroic tier), Amulet of Protection +3, Baldric of Dividing Ranks (heroic tier), Sun Globe (heroic tier), Pierced Heart Tattoo (heroic tier), Poison Gloves (heroic tier), Alchemical Silver (heroic tier) (2), Holy Water (level 11), Holy Water (level 1) (3), Adventurer's Kit, FootpadsFORMULASAlchemical Silver (2)====== Copy to Clipboard and Press the Import Button on the Summary Tab ======</blockquote>
