[QUOTE="Jolly Giant, post: 1601375, member: 5278"] Well, with all 18's you have the potential to excel at anything so I'd try to make a character who could do a bit of everything. I'd multi-class, in other words; and I'd look for a Prc that would let me develop at least two sets of class abilities simultaneously. Maybe an arcane trickster or mystic theurge. And I'd probably roleplay him as the most arrogant bastard in RPG history! ("I get all the chicks 'cause I'm so perfect, my farts smell like roses." :p For maximum versatility, I'd go with human. If I'm gonna play some sort of ûber-mensch, I'll want to have magic at my disposal. :cool: I'd also make sure to take at least one or two levels of a class that would grant me full martial weapon proficiency, probably fighter for the generic-ness of it. An ûber-mensch who doesn't even know how to handle a basic longsword just wouldn't sit right with me... ;) Actually, monk would be a great alternative, coolness-wise; "Ooh, look at me; I'm so perfect, I don't need neither weapons nor armor to defeat my enemies!" ;) I'd still take a fighter level first ("Sure, I can use every weapon in the book, but I'm so brilliant I don't need weapons..."), and then go for something like the Sacred Fist PrC. --------- As for challenges such a character would face I imagine adoration, envy and unreasonably high expectations from the community would be plentiful. Walking down a street he'd be followed by cries of "I love you, you're so perfect", "I hate you, you're so full of it", "Find my lost ring/cat/dog/significant other", "Raise my dead granny", "End world hunger", "" etc. ;) I guess just about every organisation in the world would be out to recruit such a person, an if he refuses to let himself be recruited some of those organisations would try to assinate him before he joins an enemy organisation.
