Beguilers, assassins, and duskblades are all spontaneous intelligence-based arcane spellcasters.

yup, and a beguiler flavor-wise would definately work for what im building. but because it uses intellegience over charisma, it is quite detrimental to my build.

Myself, and my DM, changed the Beguiler to being a CHA-based caster. We just felt that it fit better with the class. You could ask your DM if it would be okay, too.

i will most definately do that. it just makes more sense to me that he would be charisma based. so i will definately ask and see what he says.

To clarify, I wasn't recommending the intelligence-based spontaneous arcane classes to Chrae77. I made that post in response Grod_The_Giant's claim that "almost anything that spontaneously casts" is charismatic.
