I'm going to be playing in an Eberron campaign, and My DM is letting me use the Planar Sheperd. I promised I wouldn't abuse it, and if anything becomes a problem, he's more than free to nerf it. For my build, I had an idea of combining Impure Prince and Planar Sheperd linked to Xoriat. Now, I want to get as many levels in of each class as possible. Has anybody done anything like this before? Any advice would be helpful. The DM hasn't set a level for the upcoming campaign, so I'm more interested in just brainstorming. Also, for flavor reasons, my DM is allowing Gatekeeper Initiate to apply for Planar Sheperd feat pre-reqs. For the race, I was considering Daelky Half-Blood or a human with abberation blood.

You know Druid 5/ Planar Sheppard 10/ Impure Prince 5 really doesn't look that bad and is very easy to follow. Looks very interesting anyways. Just remember to take the Assume Supernatural Ability feat. Also does wildshaping affect symbionts?

Tell me more about impure prince? I'm curious. I've read it, but it made no impression.
Can I ask you for a CO Diary?

Impure prince fights aberrations and in the same time becomes more like them; from Magic of Eberron. Full BAB, 4/6 casting, expanded spell list, can use symbionts, gains favored enemy aberrations.

To expand on the aberration theme, look into Lords of Madness for the aberrant feats series (aberrant wild shape). Also, somewhere was an interesting fusion of aberrant dragonmarks and aberrant feats...

So that's why little bells were ringing.

I'm aware of the LoP's dirty tricks, I just don't want to break the game. As far as a CO diary, I'd be more than happy to, if the campaign gets off the ground. The DM likes to put things off, and he already has two campaigns lagging. As far as the prgression, I wanted to start with Impure Prince for flavor reasons, then move into Planar Sheperd. What about the skill requirments for Impure prince? Are there any feats, racial sub. levels or alt. class features I should be aware of? What about race? I was thinking Half-blood for flavor and free Symbiont Mastery, but to get the aberation blood feat tree, you must be humanoid.

May I direct your attention to the back of the fiend folio where madness waits, patient and smiling? Grafts, symbiotes, and things with no reasonable disadvantage. Yay!

Hmmm, I may have to look into the Fiend Folio. That was near the end of 3.0 yes?

There's also a PrC in Lords of Madness that's quite good for an anti-abberation Druid - Abolisher.

Druid 5 / Planar Shephard 10 / Abolisher 5 is quite decent.

Hmm. The Abolisher is nice, but not quite what I'm looking for.

My concept for the character is to slowly but surely become more and more like the things he's fighting. Eventually getting to the point of tapping into their homeworld.
