So i have a lvl 7 cohort to build. The fluff points the Dm has given me are: race: Elf, female, must be attempting to go the way of the Eldritch Knight. She was a royal guard prior to being captured by some giants, from which we rescued her. Using the Hero Npc stat block, and all of the standard rules apply. My only personal preference is to have her use the elven curve blade. Other than that, its open.
I'm considering Fighter 5 / Wizard 2 with her being apprenticed to me (teh wizard) until she gets to F-5/W-5 then going EK, but i'm not sure thats the best way. Open to ideas!
