It was suggested I post this thread here...
Heres a bit of a challenge and I imagine it can be done many different ways.
I wanted to build a Thug character. It has to be a 28 point build and using only the 3.5 PHB for feats and skills and classes. I envisioned that he would be a fighter/rogue and his stats would probably be: S:16 D:14 C:14 I:12 W:10 CH:8.
I think the feats are what I struggle with most. I can see MANY combos. Dodge, Mobility, Improved Unarmed Strike, Improved Grapple, Toughness, Power Attack, etc.
I am looking for ideas that would fit a Thug born to the streets.
Can't wait for the reponse!

Rogue 8/Fighter 6/Monk 6 works pretty well - lots of flexiblity, except with the Monk levels. I'd go Rogue 1/Fighter 1/Monk 6, then alternate Rogue and Fighter levels.

Tons of extra feats, +4d6 Sneak.

The major point of survival - you're not a monk - wear armor and use a good weapon.
