The Griffin's Crier

So I'm working on a few concepts for my new combat machine.

Concept 1:
Rogue 1/Fighter 10 - This fighter's going to have some Int and Chr, so he can have some Leadership skills, and be a plausable tactictian. I'm thinking a Neutral Good outlook, a little grim, not too hung up on honor or any of those lofty concepts, just looking for the best tactical way to get the job done.

I gave him a level of Rogue to start so that I can put some skill points into adventuring type skills. I'm also going to give him some magical help to Stealth Skills, so he won't be a typical clanking tank. Imagine our enemies' surprise when they suddenly notice a badass plate clad warrior standing next to them.

Diverse feats: Power Attack, Cleave, Great Cleave, Weap Focus, Weap Specialization, Imp Crit, but also some roguish feats, Imp Initiative, Combat Reflexes and Combat Expertise, and some general feats, Iron Will and Imp Toughness.

Magical Equip:

Mithril Full Plate +2, Shadow, Silent, Light Fort
7.5k + 9k + 9k = 25.5k

Bastard Sword +1 Keen, 8k

Amulet of Health +2 4k
Gauntlets of Ogre Power (+2) 4k
Amulet of Nat Armor +2 8k
Ring of Prot +2 8k
Ring of Resistance +3 9k

Cloak of Elvenkind 2.5k
Boots of Elvenkind 2.5k

These are some ideas.

Hrm. To 'spensive. Let's try this.

Mithril Full Plate +2, Shadow, Silent 7.5k (shadow silent) + 9k (mithril) + 4k (+2 armor) = 20.5k

B Sword +1, Keen = 8k

Amulet of Health +2 = 4k
Gauntlets of Ogre Power = 4k
Amulet of Nat Armor +2 = 8k
Ring of Prot +2 = 8k
Ring of Resistance +2 = 4k

Cloak & Boots of Elvenkind = 5k

Total = 61500

edited because i can't do math and copied down prices incorrectly.

Plus some backup weapons:

Mwk Cold Iron BSword 670gp
Mwk Silvered BSword 515gp
Mwk Hv Flail 315gp
Mwk Longbow 375gp

= 1875 gp

Killing a frost giant in one hit: priceless.

Well, that's the second concept I'm working on, which I'll probably post later tonight.

THAT guy will have a a GreatAxe and huge Str and enchantment and damage dealing abilities.

THIS guy is going to hit you and hit you and hit you and THEN you'll die.

This is the first version. Richlin came out pretty well, I think.

110 hp. Yay!
25 AC (WITHOUT shield!)
2 attacks/round (3 next level)
good stats, fair saves, good skills
+12 Hide and +12 Move Silent (IN PLATEMAIL!!!)
a variety of weapons to pierce DR (cold iron, silver, bludgeoning, magic)
effective vs Golems and constructs.

Wow ... a sneaky tank. Who'd have thunk it?

So what's his character background?

Well, I'm not sure I'm playing this guy. I was working on a few other concepts, which I'll be posting shortly.
