I was just looking at the Jackal Lord found in Fiend Folio, and I thought to myself "How much fun would it be to play this?".

Of course, then the Min/Maxer inside of me said "Is it balanced, or am I going to be destroyed". So, I decided to ask you guys.

We are using LA Buyoff rules, so I will get 9th level divine spells at 20th level.

The DM also lets the divine spellcasters cast spontaneously... Gee, I wonder if he has a slight bias :rolleyes: . The rest of the group is not into Min/Maxing, so no matter what I play, I usually end up the most powerful of the group.

Any Suggestions, Comments?

Sweet jebus, screw the jackal lord, just do anything that gives you unabated clerical casting progression. thats utter insanity, who needs the rest of the group.

Dunno. Feels about right to slightly underpowered. The problem is that LA buyoff doesn't happen for a while, and so you're basically exchanging 3 levels for decent stats, some DR, some odd abilities, and finally that Suggestion at will spell.

In the right game, that last one is murder. If you're not in that game, I don't think Jackal Lord is worth it.
