Hey all. I am thinking of creating a Pixie Swordsage, and I am wondering if I could get the LA down by removing the Spell-Like Abilities and the memory arrows. All are special attacks that I really don't want. Do you think this would be acceptable, and by how much could I get this reduced by, DM pending of course. I just want to know what to go to him with. Thanks!

Not much, if any, I'm afraid. It's the unbalanced ability scores, the flight speed, the SR, the damage reduction, and the natural invisibility that make the pixie one of the best monsters with LA.

From what I've gathered, I could get it down by 1.
