Skills: Appraiseš +4, Balanceš +8, Bluffš +1, Climbš +5, Craft (Alchemy)š +5, Disable Device +13, Escape Artistš +11, Hideš +17, Jumpš +7, Knowledge (arcana) +4, Knowledge (nature) +3, Knowledge (religion) +3, Listenš +10, Move Silentlyš +14, Open Lock +11, Profession (Guide) +2, Profession (Miner) +2, Searchš +11, Sleight of Hand +6, Spellcraft +7, Spotš +11, Tumble +15.

Feats: Point Blank Shot, Precise Shot

I'm looking at taking Fighter at level 6 and take Dodge and Titan Fighting from Races of Stone (+4 dodge bonus vs. larger creatures).

At level 7 (uncanny dodge, level 4 rogue), and 8 (3d6 sneak attack at level 5 rogue). I was going to take Rogue (we need a good rogue for the party).

At level 9 I was going to take Rogue (Trap sense +2) or maybe Swashbuckler (+1 Reflex saves at level 2), and then at level 10 take Master Thrower (Quickdraw) and get Sneaky Shot combat trick.

I was thinking of eventually taking level 3 Swashbuckler so I can get +3 (Int 16) because I only have +0 to damage (Str 11).

Because of my good Hide I usually cast spells like Obscuring Mist and use my Wand of Darkness.

In combat where I need to melee, I usually cast Shield on myself.

09-19-04, 11:54 PM I took the level in Wizard because at the time we were roleplaying and my character happened to get good with a level 10 Wizard. We don't have a wizard in our party so I took Wizard so we could save on Identify spells and I could sneak attack with spells...also use Obscuring Mist and Shield alot.

I have a Masterwork Buckler and at level 9 will be taking Weapon Focus (Dagger) so I can take Master Thrower at level 10.
