[Those all the hallmark skills] Flavor: She only wears the vestments of a rogue, never dons robes like a wizard. Carries a light crossbow, dagger and club which both wizards and rogues are proficient with. She wears the outer wooden holy symbol of Olidammara, and a hidden silver holy symbol of Boccob. She shouldn't need to perform disguise checks since she wears these clothes all the time, she will need to bluff once-in-awhile. I'm going to bump that skill later. Once she casts a spell, the jig is up. I may get the metamagic feat that makes my spells look like they come from elsewhere later. Mark

I'd be nervous about contributing enough to the party with your entire offense being a crossbow for +1 to hit and d8 damage and a mere 11 AC (although 15 with mage armor up)

Greyhawk Method states that you get four spells at your highest level per level taken in Wizard rather than the standard two. Also, you get an expanded list of bonus wizard feats to choose from. I get to memorize two first level spells due to my high intelligence, that has no effect on the number of spells you can scribe for free.

I am a skill monkey, and can cast loads of spells. I may want to swap a 1st level spell with a damage spell.

Pack a lot of daze spells I guess. Those do help and your DC is decent. Rather than a damage spell (scrolls of magic missile get that done ok) I'd go with a save dependent spell to leverage your 18 intelligence, maybe color spray, grease or, given your penchant for indirect effects, sleep.

Except you get 3+Int Modifier for being 1st level...you have an 18 Int, that's 7 spells...I guess whether or not you get 7 or 9 due to Greyhawk Method isn't clear, but why you're picking 4 spells over 7 spells, I don't know why.(PHB page 57)
