The question is, how to make it the most effective spear-tossing broad of doom imaginable? Well, you guys know more about this game than I do, so maybe you could help me out a bit. I can't use Dragon Compendium or any of the magazine feats, races, or classes, I can however use its weapons.

Feats should include Brutal Throw (CV), Ranged Weapon Mastery (PH2), Quick Draw, Point Blank and (Improved) Precise Shot, Rapid Shot (and Manyshot for Improved Rapid Shot, CW), (Greater) Weapon Focus/Specialization, and if your Dex is high enough (Improved, Greater) Two-Weapon Fighting and Oversized TWF (CV). If you wouldn't have a high enough Dex to get TWF, use a shield instead and get Shield Ward (PH2). I once made an encounter consisting of two Half-Dragon Dragonkin (DCN) Fighters focused on TWF javelin throwing. Improved Flight (RotW) and Improved Speed (DCN) really helped for keeping them out of the PCs' reach. Its ECL is a bit high, but as a monster it's way powerful for its CR.

Look at something along the lines of: Azurin Feat Rogue 2/Hexblade 3/Master Thrower 3/Hellreaver 10/Master Thrower +2 1 - Weapon Focus (Javelin) 1B - Point Blank Shot 2B - Precise Shot 3 - Power Attack 6 - Tormtor School 6B - Quick Draw 9 - Shape Soulmeld (Strongheart Vest) 12 - Bonus Essentia 15 - Skewer Foe 18 - Open Greater Chakra (Waist)
