[QUOTE="gfunk, post: 715696, member: 1813"] [B]1) How well it stacks up with other classes.[/B] Very well. This PrC has full spellcasting progression and the only thing you lose is turning/rebuking undead. This is a very small price to pay for the powerful abilities gained. [B]2) How often a PC will go with this class.[/B] This PrC does have an interesting pre-requisite in that the potential Inquisitor must ferret out corruption in the church. However, this is not terribly hard to do if you have an understanding DM so I think this class is very appealing to PCs. [B]3) How often an NPC will go with this class.[/B] Not too often, IMO. Generally, people run campagins with mostly good and neutral PCs. They would have no reason to run across an Inquisitor most of the time and LE clerics can't become Inquisitors. [B]4) How 'fun' it is to play this class.[/B] The initial pre-req makes it fun to qualify for, but after that it falls kind of flat. There is nothing really more you have to do -- it is completely up to DM rulings. For instance, does the PC have to actively root out corruption in the Church? Or does he simply have to meet the pre-reqs and that's that? Or maybe the PrC offers new and interesting role-playing opportunities? [B]5) How much this class adds to the game.[/B] This strikes me as a "classic" PrC that would fit into almost any campaign. I gave it a 10 b/c of the power of the class. Like a sorcerer, a cleric really has no reason not to multiclass -- especially if the rewards are high as a Chruch Inquisitor. Consider by level 10, the PC will be immune to all spells of the Enchantment school as well as possession. Plus the Inquisition domain's +4 on dispel checks is pretty nifty. [/QUOTE]
