[QUOTE="Elf Witch, post: 2923406, member: 9037"] These were the stats I rolled 17, 10, 13, 16, 12, 16 I put them in Str 18 Dex 10 Con 13 INt 16 WiS 12 CHR 16 since I came in at 10 I had two stats raises so I raised STR to 18 and CON to 14 To me someone with leadership has skills like diplomacy and sense motive and lets not forget that the feat leadership is based on CHR. There is a feat in Kalamar that allows you make cross class skills class skills based on your INT modifier. I took that and since I had an INT of 16 I choose diplomacy, sense motive and Know royalty. Being human I had 6 skill points every level so I was able to make a fighter who was smart and skilled. I put my skill points in Dplomacy, Sense Motive, Know Royalty and Intimadate. With the Courtier class from Rokugan you get synergy bonuses to charisma bases skills when used in a social setting so my character was very good at diplomacy and adequate at things like gather info my CHR was a 16 which gave me a +3 to any skills with CHR modifiers like diplomacy, Intimadate. With a STR of 18 I was a kick butt fighter. With cleave, greater cleave, power attack, Improved Crit I used a falchion she was all about just laying the smack down in melee. Yes this character could have been built as 28 point buy but I don't think it would been quite as much fun to play. It was fun playing a character who could kick butt as good as any fighter and yet have something to do outside of combat in a role play heavy game. As for the monk being a desigh flaw this may be true but it does not change the fact that right now a 28 point buy makes a piss poor monk. [/QUOTE]
