What to make at lvl 6?

[toxin]

Starting a new campaign at level 6 and looks like it'll be fun. The problem I'm having is thinking of my 2nd character (mine usually dies in the most gruesome ways possible in good fun). In the party there's going to be a stormblood sorcerer, a half-fiend fighter, i forget who else, and im rolling up a carnage/venom synthesis summoner.

(now that that is out of the way) What should i probably do for my backup character? We're pretty much allowed all core pathfinder (no magus or gunslinger), so any suggestions on what to have in my arsenal? The only thing I'm looking for is anything but a guy who swings my sword and thats it.

Also, some back-story.... were a group of people (we chose evil aligned cause we thought it would be fun) who've been asleep or something for so long and some goody two-shoes doppelgangerish guys have been going around ruining our name and helping people (what jerks), so we're going to go find and kill them to get our rep back up.

Human with Racial Heritage(Orc) and levels in Scarred Witch Doctor.
Later, take the Sahir-Afiyun feat to add an awesome Opium induced euphoria to your spellcasting.

might you mind telling me where that feat is so i can check it out?

Edit: Found it.

Sahir-Afiyun is fun. Add the various Pesh feats to your list, and be a drug addled caster.

link your backup character with your main character , the more invested the better, makes for much more interesting RP instead of just oh this guy died and then we found this guy and he joined us.

Old buddy you lost touch with due to the Pesh use.
Once, the Pesh was his master, now, he is the master of Pesh.

The drug induced abilities look fun and will probably be allowed :) Thanks. And I do plan on having some tie, it would be sorta lame if he magically appeared. I was hoping to grab a couple ideas out of this thread and want to say thanks for both your input.

Funny, I'm needing to make up my mind on a new 6th-level character as well!

How about a con-man/ex-Rasmiran priest/sorcerer with INSANELY high social skills?

If I play it, I'm so taking Still Spell as my bonus feat next level. (The above character uses 25-point buy though.)

I have found that Bards and Inquisitors make the best social skill PCs.

If that's what interests you.
