The Mountebank Conversion


Conversions


So the mountebank. A supernatural roguish character class from paizo's Dragon Compendium.

Besides the hit dice up grade and the condensing of the class skill list my only other thought for conversion would be to have the class take rogue or ninja talents at the odd levels.

Beyond that everything looks solid. It even has a 20th level capstone ability.

What do you guys think? Yeah, nay?

Any other thoughts beyond this?

You do realize that the capstone ability is the loss of the character right?

Yes, but one's companions could quest to free you after the transformation or maybe before that knowing something like that is on the horizon the mountebank makes preparations to avoid that fate while still retaining their power and abilities.

True. That was a suggestion in the book if I recall. I just always found it odd that they made a class where the endgame was that you lost it.

Maybe a little, but a hero with a ticking clock baring down on him makes for interesting stories.

It can. Hadn't thought about it like that before.

Glad to help. :)
