Yes... Is there anything in particular you're looking for? It would be helpful to know.

Err... Here's a basic one, I guess.

Human Swordsage 3
[1] Adaptive Style
[1H] Extra Readied Maneuver
[3] Weapon Finesse
Take whatever maneuvers you want - maybe focus on Diamond Mind and other random stuff.

Alternately, replace Weapon Finesse with Two-Weapon Fighting and make sure to take some Tiger Claw maneuvers along with other stuff.

Or... Human Swordsage 1/Swashbuckler 1/Swordsage 2.
[1] Adaptive Style
[1H] Extra Readied Maneuver
[3] Shadow Blade

Swashbuckler gives you Weapon Finesse, Shadow Blade is Dex instead of Str to damage. Maybe grab TWF later if you want, or not, whatever.

There are plenty of other options, of course.

I thought Shadow Blade adds to the damage. Has it been clarified by custserv?

Whoops, you're right. Text says it adds, table says it replaces... Officially text trumps table, so it adds.

It's spelled "Fergalicious," hun.
Also... Who claimed it was a verb? o_O

Don't ask that question. We may all suffer SAN loss if we find out... and I like what few points I have left. :P
