I need an early-epics (21-25 or thereabouts) Wizard build for a Pixie, (Yes, that's right a Pixie). Continuing still, an Evil Pixie without Otto's Irresistable Dance using classes &/or prestige classes from the following list of books:
Dungeon Master's Guide V3.5
Player's Handbook V3.5
Monster Manual V3.5
Monster Manual II
Deities & Demigods
Epic Level Handbook
Any other as long as it is official material and you can show clear reference to its entirety
Good luck!

Curse you CO Board traffic! I keep getting shoved off the page!

I know that a Pun-Pun build might work, but Serpent Kingdoms is not a useable book. Perhaps a Speed build, or one allowing mass enchantment, or maybe a dexterity/strength booster?

Pixie and wizard doesn't really mix well, you know (you seem to know). Is this something to do with the campaign, or? You don't want to lose those caster levels.

I need it for my 10 High Maesters of Grimdolf (see sig), and they are a very important part of the campaign world. If Wizard is too much of a stretch, I'm willing to switch to Sorcerer

Since it's an NPC, the LA isn't a concern. Just find some wizard build you like (if you have Player's Guide to Faerun, Wiz5/Incantatrix 10/Archmage 5/Incantatrix 11+ seems solid) and give it to the pixie.

I need it to be borderline-munchkin, but I don't know what to put together and I (As noted on the OP) don't have the Player's Guide to Faerun

NE Pixie Monk2/Wiz5/Loremaster8/Archmage5/Loremaster9-12

Monk1: Skill Focus: Knowledge (arcana), {Improved Unarmed Strike, Stunning Fist, Wisdom to AC}
Monk2: {Deflect Arrows, Evasion}
Wiz1: Empower Spell, {Rat or Weasel Familiar, Scribe Scroll}
Wiz2
Wiz3
Wiz4: Skill Focus (Spellcraft)
Wiz5: {Quicken Spell}
Loremaster1: {School Focus (transmutation)}
LM2: School Focus (necromancy), {Lore}
LM3: {+2 Fort or Reflex Save}
LM4: {Bonus Language}
LM5: Spell Penetration, {+2 Fort or Reflex Save}
LM6: {Greater Lore}
LM7: {Secret}
LM8: Greater Spell Penetration OR Greater School Focus or School Focus, {Bonus Language}
Archmage1: {Mastery of Shaping}
Acm2: {Mastery of Elements}
Acm3: {Arcane Reach}
Acm4: Combat Reflexes {Spell Power}
Acm5: {Arcane Reach II}
LM9: Exceptional Deflection (Epic), {Secret}
LM10: {True Lore}
LM11: {?}
LM12: Infinite Deflection (Epic), {?}

This pixie is defense-heavy from being a monk and having evasion and exceptional and infinite deflection. Her base saves are 10/10/15 before familiar and lore bonuses, and AC can be phenominal. Offensively, she can chuck spells as a level 22 wizard, and, with such a predicted high INT from being a middle-aged or old pixie if need be, she can dispense save-or-die spells like many non-Red Wizards.

She screams to be shapechanged into a hydra, storm giant, or choker.

Boost her stats with tomes and wishes and give her a robe of the archmagi, bracers of armor +13*, necklace of CON or WIS, headband of INT, gloves of DEX, belt of dwarvenkind or STR, cloak of resistance, and some other items as you see fit.

*Extrapolating the formula, bracers of armor +13 cost 169,000 and are the most you can get without paying epic prices.

Nothin' wrong with a Pixie wizard. Just because Sorcerer is favored, they get +6 Int and +6 Cha. Pick up the feat to improve your fly to perfect, float around imp invisiable and blast people.

Sounds like someone needs Sublime Cord to save the day! 9th level spells at 20th level here we go!

Pixie +4 LA Wiz 5/Bard(or PrC Bard) 1/Sublime Cord 1/ YYY 9
Where YYY = +1 spellcasting PrC

Simple, sweet, and makes use of that +6 Cha.

This is remarkably perfect, I now have a Pixie that can deal 50d6+50 Con with Telekinetic Sphere with a 52 AC and all saves in the mid-twenties. And her fly speed and Invisibility only strengthens the combination, because Telekinetic Sphere isn't technically an attack (IIRC)

It doesn't work. LA and Sublime Chord do not play well together. It's the skill ranks prereq that gets you. With a +4 LA you can't get 13 ranks in a skill until ECL 14, leaving only 6 levels for SC pre-epic.

True, forgot about that. Of course, +4 LA can be removed at ECL 12, so there you go.(If his DM does LA buyoff from Unearthed Arcana.)

Almost. At ECL 12, you can buy it down from +4 to +3.
