[QUOTE="doctorbadwolf, post: 6920252, member: 6704184"] Rogue: expertise helps round a character out. A monk with a rogue splash can be an unstoppable free runner, climber, etc, if that is relevant to your campaign. The swashbuckler bits make you impossible to pin down. Also dex/con/wis is, IMO, just a better stat lineup for any character that doesn't need high str for class stuff. Even with barb, you can't ignore dex, and rogue gets you skills, swashbuckler goodies, SA, cunning action, and theives cant, which seems rather appropriate for the character. Ranger: don't discount the cool factor of a pet monkey. :D seriously, though, ranger gets you fighting style (I recommend mariner for this character, as much for the climb speed as for anything else), favored enemy, bat explorer, which no longer specifies wilderness, along with everything you mentioned. i only recommend this if DM allows the revised ranger. I dont like fighters enough to comment there. I don't recommend barbarian, just because it runs counter to the rest of the concept, to me. [/QUOTE]
