So... I could use some help with a character

[NoLifeKing]

So my character just died in our carion crown game and i need a new one. I know what he is but not how to get him there, you know? Can someone help me with some good character builds for a 7th level monk/ rogue/ aldori swordlord. Half elf with ancestral arms for EWP: Aldori. Stats in our game are rolled, and min e were super high all around. I have 15, 17, 18, 15, 15, 17. This is why i asked to do point b uy, btw. Anyway, i want to do monk of many styles/ sacred mountain to swashbuckler rogue and then into Aldori swordlord. Then probably into the duelist prc. Ultimate goal is having dex, wis, cha, and int to my ac, while coming off in character as the typical womanizing dashing young rake type character. A show off. Even thinking about adding gladiator to the mix. Any thoughts?

You'll probably get a better response if you at least attempt to create a build, rather than saying "Here's what I want, do the work for me.".

Also, use paragraphs and punctuation: your post is very difficult to read.

I don't really understand your character concept.

Hey, guys, thanks for the responses. Last night when I typed that up, it was 4:30 in the morning for me, and I was on a cell phone. I apologize.

Alright, as for concept... Character-wise the concept is a swashbuckling, womanizing, duelist with flare. He's a show-off, a drunkard, and a charmer. Also, ridiculously good with a sword in hand.

Mechanics-wise, the concept is built on super high defense and counter attacking, with a penchant for disarming. Aldori Swordlord seems the best fit for the build, coupled with the Master of Many Styles monk for the Snake Style/Fang combination.

I also want to take a level of Rogue. More for flavor and skills to fit the character than for optimization. I've determined that the Swashbuckler archetype seems to be the best fit.

Here's what I've done, but it seems like it's not working correctly.

It just feels... wrong. Any suggestions?

What feels wrong? You mean you think you can do more in terms of optimization, or are you not capturing the character right?

The way you've described him, he does not seem to have a monk's lifestyle. Was that part of his past, left buried? Mountain Monks especially like to find a spot to stand, and stay there. Is that in line with your concept?

It doesn't really matter with stats like those, but I think you put too much weight on Int.

Edit: Here's a guide someone wrote for the Swordlord: http://paizo.com/forums/dmtz5s1u?Secrets-of-the-Swordlords-How-to-build-an

Alternatively, you can also just roll a Kensei Magus, and straight up use Dex and Int (as per Duelist) for AC. Arcane tricks are always handy for a rake.

Alchemy, I do mean more in optimization. Like now that I'm here, I've realized that i still haven't taken crane style and wing and i feel like i should have. I don't know. I'm just trying to get a fresh perspective really.

[Black_Lantern]

When optimizing in pathfinder it's often recommended that you stick to a single class. If you do in fact want levels in another class make sure you get in and get out. However if you don't care about optimization then go with what feels right man. Personally, I'm a big fan of reskinning things to match my character concept.
