Just for fun, I was thinking of classes that would go well together for a pseudo-Jedi (and Sith). This is what I hav eso far:
Start with a Blade Pact Warlock for the 'Saber,' then add in Arcane Trickster for the Mage Hand manipulations, then to round things out, perhaps a bit of Paladin for the Healing, Auras, and other bits.
Thoughts?
Been doing it for years. Current version is based on the paladin class.

Would love some feedback. Also, currently playtesting this class and modifying an old adventure path called savage Tides. So far, so good.

Askith Tighn is a Red Knight of the Ancient Order, dedicated to serving the Will of the Hidden Empire. All Red Knights are addressed as M'lady and they scare most people because they speak for the Hidden Empire and can mete out punishment. It is not widely known even amongst scholars, that the Red Knights were descended from Durthans exiled from Rashemen. All Red knights hate Hathrans and seek their destruction and for the Hidden Empires dominion to include Rashemen.
Askith has an apprentice called Yulvara who is studying the Mysteries of the Hidden Empire called the Way. Akiths retainers are her Majordomo Renngoba and her herald Faurgar. Both Renngoba and Faurgar have contacts with the Hidden Empire and are totally dedicated to serving Akiths.
(Apologies folks, I had to do it- yes you will see what Askith Tighn really is and she does serve the Hidden Empire which may or may not be part of the Zhentarim Faction and may only exist where the populace are subjugated by the Red Knights, or the Blue Warders and or the White Guard. Blue Warders are berserker warriors and male wizards (M'lord), whereas the White Guard are the primary warriors of the Hidden Empire, which could possibly be ruling Thay or far worse the next town or village you come to.
Warlock Blade Pact would definitely harmonise with this.
I asked the question- What if the Empire existed in Faerun, but in a way which was insidious, near invisible. In fact a sort of cross between the Empire from Star Wars and the Order under Jagang the Just (Dream Walker) but in a subtle way- a silent invasion, an invasion of fear.
The only anagram I used was Askith Tighn, her apprentices name is totally made up
Nice, guys!
