[QUOTE="Klaus, post: 3246184, member: 607"] Check my avatar. It's a bit of a Todd Lockwood cover for the novel Memories of Ice, bu Steven Erikson. That's Gruntle, Mortal Sword of Trake, the Tiger of Summer (think of it as a God of War, recently ascended). I thought the image was really cool, and decided to make up a character. And using PHB, PHBII, CW and CAdv, I managed to make exactly the character I wanted, with some really cool options for combat beyond just trading full attacks. I love how the rules allowed me to make this character without the need of piling up levels in a dozen different classes or whatnot, and that the charcater is really cool, even though I didn't min-max him (beyond starting with a 32-point buy). So I am posting the character below (at 9th-level, when I already had everything I wanted for the character). He started as Fighter, then took a couple of Barbarian levels to mimic the touch of the Tiger of Summer.
