Hey message board awesome people! So my group is starting a new game and one of our new players wants to build a character based on magic the gathering's Kresh The Bloodbraided http://gatherer.wizards.com/pages/card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=174876 . So any ideas how he could go about this? Thanks everyone
The best I can think of off the top of my head is Cornered Fury which is an alternate racial trait for Ratfolk
Cornered Fury: Ratfolk can fight viciously when cut off from friends and allies. Whenever a ratfolk with this racial trait is reduced to half or fewer of his hit points, and has no conscious ally within 30 feet, he gains a +2 racial bonus on melee attack rolls and to Armor Class. (Allies die, I get bigger! Ideology)
Other than that, you'd be looking at maybe a Necromancy based Wizard, Focus on giving negative levels and gaining temp HP perhaps?
Kresh is a hard character to really duplicate in pathfinder as there is little that truly goes off of creatures dying. I'll look some more, but off the top of my head, there's really not much else.
Edit:
Cleave, Cleaving Finish and Improved Cleaving Finish would be good feats for a martially built Kresh character.
Gunslingers get grit points for killing people but I imagine that's not the flavor you're looking for.
Perhaps a Sorceror 8/Fighter 1 prestige into Eldritch Knight? You get some combat feats and use your few known spells to pick up buffing and necromancy spells? If you don't care about optimizing at all, it can be built to be decently effective. How high level is this campaign starting at? How high will it likely go?
Also, the spell Death Knell. Some tieflings get it as a spell-like ability so that you don't have to be a cleric or oracle.
