I'm looking for any suggestions on how to achieve my goal. I can use any 3.0/3.5 material.

My current build idea is 5Rogue/1monk/2fighter/3shou disciple/3invisible blade/6 Nightsong enforcer

im thinking of going human or halfling but if there is better with no ECL let me know

I am looking for more of a team player kinda of build but keeping up in BAB would be nice.
I was thinking of getting the rogue alternate class feature disruptive attack and the monk alternate class feature desisive strike to do some damage in that one hit.

I am also thinking for maybe fitting in duelist some how sice my intelligence will be high for skill points

Any feats,class tweeks anything is up for change. Anything to help me squeeze alittle more teamwork out of this build be be greatly appreciated.

Here's something nice and simple:

Whisper Gnome

Factotum 11/Exemplar 9

Feats
1 - Trivial Knowledge
3 - Tactile Trapsmith
6 - Knowledge Devotion
9 - Skill Focus (disable device)
12 - Weapon Finesse
14 - Improved Initiative (Exemplar bonus)
15 - Font of Inspiration
17 - Open Minded (Exemplar bonus)
18 - Font of Inspiration
20 - Open Minded (Exemplar bonus)

It's not as oriented towards the teamwork aspect you'd like to obtain, but you do get Lend Talent from Exemplar, to boost a party member's skill check.

What it does excel at though, is being a skill monkey. At level 5 (with an 18 Intelligence), the character can have a +18 to hide, with only two actual ranks spent. Hide can mirror that result with six ranks spent. Tactile Trapsmith (in theory) allows both your Int and Dex plus ranks to Search and Disable Device. If you're going to be the party's trapfinder, you'll be set.

Also, you don't lose any more base attack than you would from being a rogue anyways. I'm pretty fond of the build, if you couldn't tell.
