Kobold Witch

[cryosphinx]

as the title says im looking to make a kobold witch. sub-optimal sure but it just seems fun as hell. i dont know how to go about doing it so i turn to you oh wise ones help this poor soul make his cackling kobold work.

i know i wont be the the most astounding combatant but i was looking to use hexes to debuff/buff and hopefully augment some damage with the spells thats about all i have planned. sorry if theres bad grammar and punctuation thanks in advance!

May I ask what we have to work with, like point buy(or stats rolled) and level?

[Kthulhu]

You might want to consider using the alternate favored class bonus from Purple Duck's Monstrous Races. Treat the kobold’s level as +1/2 higher for the purpose of determining the effects of the witch’s hex ability.

ah yeah forgot about specifics its 25point buy and the 3 corebooks.i dont know if it matters but we are converting the sundark goggles from 3.5 the ones that get rid of light sensitivity

[cryosphinx]

i hate to do it but ill bump this thread, if it dies it dies. please oh wise board gurus help a poor man out

If you're getting rid of Light-sensitivity, then the Kobold would be pretty much the same as building a Wizard, i'd think, though you'd grab Save or Suck spells instead of Direct Damage spells.

but i can't remember the normal Kobold stats, since I made my own Kobold PC template since the standard one isn't very appealing, nor does it make any sense, i remember it had -2 con, but everything i know about Kobolds says they're a Hardy race. /shrug.

After the first 2-3 levels, Kobolds bad stats end up not really mattering, IME (played an all-Kobold game to level 9). So yeah, build like a Wizzy- Focus on INT, choose spells carefully, and PROTECT YOUR FAMILIAR. The extra base land speed, small size, and dark vision make for a very effective "first strike" caster- get in lots of fogs, clouds, tentacles, etc early to confuse/confound the mass of your foes, THEN focus on the BBEGs with hexes and debuffs while the warriors hack him to bits. Muwahahaha!!!

In 3.5 I played a kobold 3 cleric/4 wizard/5 true necromancer.

A LOT of fun. Evil little bastage.

Oh..umm. I think kobold witch is a great idea.
