House Rules: Lvl 9 gestalt. Full casters are banned, partial casters strongly discouraged. One side of the gestalt must have a TOB class and at least one level of Master of Nine.  Master of nine requirements have been relaxed slightly, Blind fight and Improved Unarmed attack are gone. Fun templates and races are cautiously encouraged, with the LA applying to only one side of the gestalt. Fractional saves/bab apply. 36 point buy.


What I want: An unarmed specialist, with high speed. Sneaky/quiet/assassin type is nice, too. I'd like to keep raptoran unless there is a really good reason not to, but if there's a better template out there the Collar of Umbral Metamorphasis isn't terribly expensive.


What I need: A better idea for what class to stick into those last two levels on the other side of the gestalt.  If there is a good PRC that can slide into levels six and seven that will work as well. I would also like a few more experienced eyes to see if I missed anything obvious I should have had.


What I have: A Dark (ToM template) Raptoran:
