So, I'm making an NPC baddie for an upcoming battle and, to compliment the other denizens of Hell that will be taking part in the adventure, I decided to make an Asura with some class levels. I ended up with the Tripurasura and, seeing the poison attack, thought it would be fun to make him a poisoner. When I think poison, I think shuriken. When I think shuriken, I think monk or ninja. So, I decided to combine the two and make something really deadly. Here is my attempt.

Basically, I'm looking for some functional optimization here. I want to basically use him as a poison delivery platform with some bonus damage on the side. I went Zen Archer for the bonus feats, qinggong because why not, ninja for the extra throwing stars and poison use. Anything glaring that I'm missing? Any better combination to get what I'm wanting here and still stick with 15 class levels?
Bump. Any eyes on this?
