what would you all think of this:

a monk gets blinded and loses his sight.

he takes the Blind Master PrC and develops blind-sight (30 ft)

then, he begins the Initiate of the Draconic Mysteries PrC.

now, this prestige class grants "keen senses" at 3rd level. normally this is 60ft low-light and darkvision, but since the monk is blind, i'm thinking about giving a 30 foot improvement to their blind-sight instead(low-light or darkvision would do him no good whatsoever obviously). this also jives with the concept of gaining 'dragon-like' abilities (the purpose of IDM), since dragons have 60' blindsense. what do you guys think?

Since dragons have blindsense now rahter than blindsight, I'd more recommend giving him blindsense 60' on top of his blindsight 30'

good call, i noticed that myself... hmm... so his blindsense would extend to 60', 30' beyond his blindsight... that makes sense.

blindsense is sort of like the 'low light vision' of blindsight in a way :)
