[QUOTE="Binho, post: 5751796, member: 6674967"] That's awesome handbook! I didn't know it yet. I'm taking a look and I'll look the monk data base as well. Just 1 level dip doesn't give the channeling ability. I prefer to stay out of ToB (but it seems that side kick feat is welcome, because it does't need adaptations). I don't have the book and it would demand some time to learn all the new rules even if I manage to borrow it. The concept would be the perfection of the body and mind. The character is adept of unarmed combat and believes that you can't rely on weapons always. The flavor of the PrC Swiftblade is good to see how the char would act in combat: strike quickly, before the target realize it. His fame comes from the style of combat: lightning fist. I want this char to strike with his punches many times, as much as possible, with light speed. Of course, it would be frustrating to have a character get his butt kicked all the time, that's why I want to have an effective/optimized character. You are right. Carmedine monk don't stack for bonus CA of monk and it doesn't allow to multiclass between wizard and monk. To correct this, I have to take straight monk 2 and, after that, start taking levels of wizard. About the option to use sorcerer, I'll pass. Sorcerer are too weak compared to wizard. Also, I like a high INT, it gives skill points that suit this character and monk concepts. [/QUOTE]
