[QUOTE="Magesmiley, post: 3034645, member: 26292"] Another thought might be to use this guy to hit and run against the party. How about this: monk 5 and sorcerer 5 Max out his hide and move silently to start with. Also max out concentration. Spells: 0: Pick some useful ones 1: Mage Armor, Shield, Shocking Grasp, something else 2: Invisibility, plus something else Pre-combat: Have mage armor and shield running. right before battle, cast shocking grasp on, hold the charge. Charge in and combine shocking grasp with an unarmed attack for lots of hurt (5d6 electricity plus monk unarmed attack - ouch). Cast invisibility and withdraw. Rinse and repeat a few time. Even allowing for shield and mage armor, this combo could be used 4 times. Odds are that the players will get wise after the 2nd hit and be ready. Probably want combat casting at least. Lots of other good choices for the other feats, but to really make this work he needs to be able to reliably cast invisibility on the defensive. Oh, the aesthetic mage from CA might help the ability issues - it would allow you to use CHA instead of WIS for the monk's AC bonus. [/QUOTE]
