I'm tying to go with more of an RP aspect but still keep him effective. i like how the rouge plays and like the idea of him discovering he has dragon powers and magic he can use to support his skills.

Someone at one of my tables suggested i take 4lvls in Rouge and 1lvl in Sorcerer the dragon disciple takes over and lvls only the sorcerer </blockquote><p>I wouldn't multiclass on your first character. See if Minor and Major magic wont work for what you want. Also the Rogue Arctype counterfeit mage might help some to or if you want to do a more rogue themed Sorcerer the seeker arc type for Sorcerer basically gives you trap finding.

<p>Ultimately its what you want to do. I love the Dragon Disciple in theory I have never been a fan of it in practice.</p>DarklitEden wrote:Ray of frost, blurred movement, Icicle dagger, vanish seem like good early, spells.

Ray of frost, blurred movement, Icicle dagger, vanish seem like good early, spells to rely on. plus the silver dragon boost to cold damage.

so i kinda have an idea on the way i want to go sorta....

still open to ideas kind new still hehe</p>Matt2VK wrote:Here's my suggestion if you want to be a spellcasting rogue -

My character is a half elf rouge and I just hit lvl2 and the GM suggested that i re-roll me character before I play with him again.
<br />
So far I made him a UC Rouge but I also plan on Multiclassing into a dragon bloodline Sorcerer(silver).
<br />
My stats so far are:
<br />
str10
<br />
dex15
<br />
con12
<br />
int12
<br />
wis12
<br />
cha15
<br />
I have the Core,Advanced class,Ultimate Magic, and Unchained books.
<br />
The main ideas I have are, a rouge that starts at a distance with magic then sneaks an closes in for sneak or flank attack.
<br />
I'm looking for any advice on stat allocation, feats, traits, and starting spells when it gets to that point.</p>
<p>Ps:I really like the idea of using The icicle dagger and blurred movement spells
<br />
pss:Also wondering if prestieging into dragon disciple could be beneficial?</p>Still kinda new but i get the basic mechanics. My character is a half elf rouge and I just hit lvl2 and the GM suggested that i re-roll me character before I play with him again.
