this one is a Primal Leader. ill run through it...
theyre born, then left in the wilds... for Primal Spirits ill guide their animal foster family to them... where they will be raised... learning age-old survival tactics. he's a leader... and the "animal" families ive came up with are Bear(strength and staying power) Wolf(Teamwork and strategy)
and Serpent(Cunning and Agility)
Wisdom I think is a good primary score, with bear Strength, Wolf Charisma and Serpent Dexterity.
i also went melee... and SPECIFIC melee weapon groups for each.. with one class feature giving them proficiency in a Superior wepon of their type.
here is the "choice" class feature.. which is the only other one, aside form the leader ecounter healing power.
basically, this flavourally chooses your chars foster parents(animal) and hence the survival tactics they use
tactics of the Bear
the bear symbolises brute strength and staying power
Brutal Weapon: you gain proficiency with the Mordenkrad. In addition, you gain a +1/3/5 bonus to the hit and damage rolls of opportunity attacks with Weapons from the Hammer group when you are bloodied
Resilience: you add your Strength modifier to hit points at first level, and gain an extra healing surge.
At-will power: you get the power associated with this feature (an attack that deals sec-striker damage and gives an adjacent ally a +Str to dmg on their next attack)
Tactics of the Wolf
the Wolf symbolises teamwork and strategy
Tactical Weapon: you gain proficiency with the Spiked Chain. in addition, when you are wielding a reach weapon and are flanking an enemy. both you and the flanking ally gain a bonus to your next melee damage rolls agaisnt the flanked enemy equal to your Charisma modifier.
Member of the Pack: when you or an adjacent ally spends a healing surge, gain an extra +1/3/5 hit points per adjacent ally
At-Will power: get the power associated with this feature(a pure leader power, which gives a +2 bonus to damage per adjacent ally.. for the inital attack with the power, and imparts it to one adjacent ally for their next melee attack.
Tactics of the Serpent
the serpent represents cunning and agility
Cunning Weapon: you gain proficiency with the Katar. In addition, when you are wielding a Light Blade in each hand, you gain a bonus to the damage rolls of opportunity attacks equal to your Dexterity Modifier
Agile Armor: When wearing Hide armor, ignore the speed penalty.
At-Will power: one that does Wis damage.. then incites a basic melee from either you or an adjacent ally if the target goes on an munches you for giving him a wee nick. (a feinting attack if you will)
