Skill Points: 4+Int Saves: Good Reflex and Will Special: Gains Sneak Attack as per a Rogue -2 levels. Example: A 5th level Mountebank would gain +2d6 sneak attack damage.

Thanks. :D Originally posted by strenoth quick note: might want to incluse a hex-blade liek note abotu 1 spell/day -1 means a listing of zero spells, ie, you still get yoru bonus spells per day. Yeah, you're right. I'll add that, thanks.
