Still need some melee oriented healers. Perhaps a warpreist, battle oracle, or melee focused cleric?

This happens a lot with these kinds of "Everyone play "X"" kind of games, and it is not a bad thing, it just requires the players and GM to play around the weaknesses/strengths. (Ex, Elf only game! Whos the tank?)

In this particular game everyone is encouraged to play a swordsman, which probably means we could be lacking in any of the arcane, healing or ranged categories, among others, and we are probably very heavy in the damage dealing category.
Thats fine, and we can come up with ways in game to make 5 berserk fighters work, if we cant, well the GM owns the world...
(And if you are one of those people who can create to fill any role, all the power to you. BUT if we dont have one of those people, then this can be a lot of unneeded pressure.

Basically, build what you want :) Party strenghts/weaknesses can be figured out afterward, and anything we cant fix, the GM can :)

Edit: my character is coming along, he is a fast human monk, but insomnia is a real creativity killer :(

So 2 nights of imsomnia this weekend have killed my creativity and my ability to write stories (at least good ones :p)
I was actually quite pumped for this but alas, Im not going to get him finished in time :(
Ps, what does "o wo/" mean?

I also just listened to Kung fu panda 3's sound track

which made me remember Kai.

so yeah, howed you do Kai.

to be clear, he can capture people's Ki and then make it fight for him, and uses Ki attacks in melee to great effect, also he has Jade chain sword things. :P

he definitely feels like a wizard of some kind but also GREAT at melee.

This got me thinking. For starters you would go with a Titan Mauler barbarian to get the Jotungrip ability to wield a 2-handed weapon in one hand. The rage fits in with his revenge issues. Then maybe multiclass into Ranger with the 2-weapon combat style to gain Str based TWF, also Favored terrain: Spirit Plane.

You can now TWF with 2 large weapons using Str so next up is the weapons themselves.
Using a pair of Dwarven Dorn Dergars (that have been slightly adjusted to deal slashing/piercing damage instead of bludgeoning) with the Darting Viper, Lunge and maybe Shield of Swings or some cleave feats. Make them out of Living Steel for that nice green look and enchant them with Impact (for bigger blades), Throwing/Called (for increased range), Mighty Cleaving and/or Speed.

And Volia! You now have the martial aspect of Kai :)
If you want to create the Furry aspect of him you will need to use racebuilder and that is not covered here. Also remember, he was the BBEG of the entire movie and so if you want him to do ALL of the things seen in the movie he would probably be high leveled and gestalt.
Trap the Soul or a Soul Bind spell can capture the targets soul in a gem. There are also spells that can create constructs and animate them so some type of sorcerer as a secondary role might be an answer.
Also check out the Souleater prestige class for ideas :)

Very good answer! Its always the victims fault!

I mean, why were we even there in the first place??? We could have been floating ANYWHERE else and we would have been FINE!

If you do go Vital strike, make sure to pick up the Furious Finish feat as well. That thing maxes out all your damage dice, including those from flaming enchant and whatnot :)

Big sword. Big numbers. MAXIMUM DAMAGE!
Imagine the crit \^_^/

28 Jump as a Str skill ya ya, that mouse just jumped 15 feet but HULK SMASH! can only jump 2...
29 Tiny creatures got Dex to Hit tiny creatures used to get weapon finesse for free, now most don't. That fly has to try and hit you with his -4 str modifier because?
30 Unique magic items Something similar to what was said above, but I miss having magic weapons being unique, not just an increasing bonus on a carefully monitored slider...

I also agree with the general lethality, I would not mind it so much, even if it meant that I lost a character for good. I have yet to actually kill off a character, and a few have TRIED. REALLY HARD...

Friar Fatling here is done :) (minus gear and 2 traits)
I decided to go with the Psychic Warrior (Meditant) as that is basically a psychic monk :)
But I decided against Mind knight, as I figured Wis to AC and permanent Inertial Armor (+4 AC) was a bit too much...
So I fight with a staff, and can sling out the fists as well as anyone :)
Note, I call Psionic Focus= Meditative Focus as he is more religion based. I also have Profession (Cook)! Who's hungry?

Edit: well I could have Dex to AC, Wis to AC, +1 Size, +1 NA and +4 Armor for 22 AC... Too much :)

I am interested :)
I also have a few ideas on what i could play, and a hard time deciding :(

option 1:

Option 2: Friar Fatling
A halfling aegis (abberrant)/something. (a meditant psycic warrior would work well here. Or a monk)
Key abilities: obese customization, psionic body feat and high con score.
The Friar is a small halfling and nearly as round as he is tall. However his extreme fat also lends him extrodinary strength and resilency for one so small. But he is a bit slow and fat and lazy, and must run to keep up with everyone, or hitch a ride...

Friar Fatling worked within the ministry of Mintra as one of her monks. His jolly demeanor and kind face, along with his excessive pudgyness lent to some of the younger kids within the church calling him Friar Fatling and the monkier stuck.
Friar tried to follow the tennants of Mitra, he really did. He applied himself to his studys and meditated regularly on her word. He really tried. But it was not meant to be, one day Friar stumbled apon something within the church. A secret meeting, a drunk clergy member a secret trist, something. At that point Friar lost his temper. He really lost it. In his "righteous" anger he threw out the offendants, after he beat the stuffing out of them and dealing a fair bit of property damage. During the confrontarion he knocked over a set of candles, causing the west wing to go up in flames. He didnt care.

While Friar might have been just in his anger, his actions were excessive and anything but. As well, his cries of foul play within the "Pure Church of Mitra" did little to help his case, and the Fat Friar was branded a heritic for his Blasphemy (crime trait) and sent to Branderscar prison to burn at the stake.

Friar is a little bit different for this campaign, he is not a hardened criminal, unrepentant and cursing the world. Instead he "was" a monk for Mintra, and if not a good one, at least he was trying. However after experiencing the unfairness of the world, and his own anger getting the best of him, he is becoming angry and bitter. He still wants to rejoin the church and regain his comfortable life, but when he finally accepts that he cant... At that point he will become evil "If the church of Mintra rejects me, then i will reject the church!" being consumed by his rage and vengance (Asmodeus? Would you like to step in here for a moment?).
Friar Fatling is someone who is falling, and falling hard on the good/evil axis, and who will soon try and destroy the church of Mintra for good, he just needs that tiny push to get there :)

Friar looks like the typical monk, short, exceedingly fat with a balding head (brown culdesac ^_^), a simple brown robe with a gold band around the waist and a staff in his hand. He always has a plesant smile on his face and jolly eyes, but you would never guess at the anger and rage giving away to malace that is bubbling beneath them.

One way that Friar differs from a normal monk is with a freshly burnt F branded onto his face, framing his left eye and trailing into his nose, permantly disfiguring his face.
Note, right now Friar looks "normal" with sone more mundane customizations. However the Aegis can grant some unsettling and abarant customizations. Maybe Friar will gain some "gifts" as he levels and begin to look more horrific? (like eyestalks or a stinger or tentacles?)

Ahhh... My favorite spell, Touch Injection :)

You have heard all the other responses, so there is no point repeating them.

Cast Touch Injection (TI) with Skinsend (it has no saving throw) then sell the skin. Or the bones. That's funny too.
That only costs 1300gp.
TI with a Philter of Love (again, no save) and bro-hug him. Now he "loves" you and you can make that as creepy as you desire. Actually, combine this with that potion of sex change >:D
TI with infernal healing. Give him a hearty pat on the back while you are at a temple to Sarene, then cry out "EEvil!!
More fun options :)
fire sneeze while you are at the market, ghostly disguise, and tell everyone that he died, Imbue with addiction (allows a save) repeatedly...

Other fun ideas include anchored step or eruptive postulates. Basically, look for no-save, self only spells that are at best, disabling :)

I used to be able to combine it with gaseous form but that seems to have changed... (Used to be 10min/lvl and didn't have the "willing target" line). Hug him while you are in transit via ship or flying or something.

All of these are lvl 3 or lower, so you can buy them as potions, and for relitavely cheap. If he's going to steal from you, then you might as well spend the gold on making his life miserable!
Oh, and hug him. All the time. He won't know which ones are injections and which ones are just hugs...

Otherwise, pay an alchemist for higher lvl extracts like detonate.

Other ideas.
Dump sovern glue all over him (maybe add in a dead chicken or something) or stick him to a signpost.
Acute senses can give you some pretty stupid perception modifiers.
Arcane mark him with deogratory signs or symbols.
Curse him. There are SOOOOO many fun things you can do with curses, and after the first one sticks, the rest are easy >:D

For those of you goblins who like to eat everything, here's some food for thought.
The Eat Everything racial trait is very flavorful, obviously, but that's just the start. (and +4 survival/saves vs sickened or naseuated)
Then there's also the Corpse Cannibal trait that let's you eat any meat, no matter how rotten. (and +2 fort against disease)
Now you can eat pretty much anything except stone and metal.
Next add in either the Scavenger Rogue Talent (lvl 2) or be a lvl 2 Feral Gnasher and you can now grab anything, anywhere and shove it in your mouth whenever you want :)

I did this once and it was a lot of fun ^^

Well if you are going with monster feats, nothing beats Gift of sight. cut open your stomach and read your own entrails >:)
Others, like brain eater (ghoul) would be odd... Stone clinger (ropers) would be neat, dropping on idiots below and squashing them flat :)
Any goblin feat. Just because ^^
Natural charmer (damphir) is great for a human party face.
You can't forget effortless trickery (gnome) for any illusion caster.

Or... Be a half-elf sorcerer (orc) with racial heritage: oread and dwarf blooded feats to be a wierd half-human, half-elf, partial oread and dwarf, full orc horror of the imagination :)
