[QUOTE="anonystu, post: 772671, member: 10897"] Your parents would surely send a bounty hunter after you, because no sane dwarf would go on a floating rock! You could also take this away from the dwarf angle, and go more in a human/vagrant nobility angle, in which your family is influential, but you've been sort of cast out, or black sheepized, or are living a double life. You've got your girlfriend (either a current PC if anybody wishes to volunteer, or more likely, a NPC out of the loop, who we can PC in the future with a new player). You can pull this in either a "I'm a noble, and a spy on my own kind" way, or a "I renounced my family, and am living the dangerous life, and they want me back". Multiclassing: whatever you like, sir. House rules: Skill Focus: +3 to one, or +2/+2 to two related, yada, yada, yada. If people want even more skill focus style feats, let me know. Feats: Psychic Inquisitor: beyond broken (I can explain if needbe). Three options: a) We drop it, and it's ugly duckling little brother, Psychoanalyst. b) We rework it into something a bit more mild. c) You accept that in a world with Psychic Inquisitor, Conceal Thoughts is valued as the readily available counterspell to it. This doesn't mean everybody will have it, but you're likely to not be able to use it against certain kinds of people. By the way, it should be noted that your free amulet is protection against scrying, as per nondetection, and nothing more. Any more magical protection is on you. In addition, it's part of what you know that important people tend to have detect magic spells up as alarm systems: government agencies and really important people usually go a few steps further, with dispel magics, anti-magic zones, and zones of true seeing.
