[QUOTE="Voadam, post: 121493, member: 2209"] From your past posts about the high death rate I would construct the character based around what level he comes in at, not at what he will be at 20th. Will he come in with 4 class levels? If you go with rogue I would go with a level of ranger at 1st level for the 4 extra hp and then go rogue and then either more rogue or extra wizard. The two weapon and sneak attacks are a good combo. For long term playing with the group just let them know you need their help slaying two horribly evil powerful drow, do-gooder surface types are usually willing to fight evil and this will give you an excuse to be part of the party in character (you recognize that you are too weak to do it on your own and surface fodder is what the situation calls for). Since the level discrepancy will make you weak hp wise regardless of your progression feel free to take classes that normally are protected (wizard, psion) by the rest of the party. I think the straight enchanter would have worked well but good luck. [/QUOTE]
