[QUOTE="Aus_Snow, post: 4709030, member: 29112"] Looks like fun. :) Here then is a knight, of sorts: Male Human Fighter 1 (now using 40 pb) Str 16 Dex 10 Con 16 Int 10 Wis 16 Cha 14 HP: 13 BAB: +1 Fort Save: +5 Ref Save: +0 Will Save: +6 (+10 vs. Fear and Compulsion effects) Skills: Diplomacy 4 (+8), Handle Animal 4 (+6), Knowledge (architecture & engineering) 1 (+1), Knowledge (geography) 1 (+1), Knowledge (history) 2 (+2), Knowledge (local) 2 (+2), Knowledge (nobility & royalty) 4 (+4), Knowledge (religion) 2 (+2), Listen 3 (+6), Ride 4 (+4), Sense Motive 4 (+7), Speak Language ([some classical language]) 1, Spot 4 (+7) Feats: Able Learner (RoD), Cleave, Lionhearted (PotS), Iron Will, Mounted Combat, Power Attack, Ride-By Attack, Sacred Vow (BoED), Spirited Charge, True Believer (CD), Vow of Obedience (BoED). [sblock=Comments on the pervious version][U]Notes[/U] Abilities are 32 point buy. All feats are from the PHB except those with the following acronyms - BoED = Book of Exalted Deeds, CD = Complete Divine, RoD = Races of Destiny (all WotC); PotS = Path of the Sword (Fantasy Flight). [U]Reasoning / Musings[/U] I mainly wanted to see how far one might have to go in terms of 'breaking' the PHB setup, in order to create a basically functional knight type. Well, of this sort anyway. With 12 feats (including the Fighter bonus feat), by gawsh, it's almost doable! :hmm: This is just a quick attempt; I'm pretty sure I could do better, given sufficient time and motivation. Also, guy needs a name. . . I then realised (once again) that, if one was stuck with only core classes (including NPC classes), Aristocrat would (overall) make for a [I]much[/I] better knight. . . if only their BAB was good. Even so. . . :erm:[/sblock] [/QUOTE]
