So my party has hit level 9 in our campaign. The characters are currently adventuring Dungeon island. I am looking to retire my witch from the party. We have about 6 people who consistently play with a couple people who join periodically. I am trying to think of a character to take my witches place. Her main roll was a Buffer/Debuffer, and being the only source of craft wonderous items the party has. The big downfall I have for retiring my witch is the huge amount of wealth she has accumulated over her couple levels in this campaign. (57k in the last dungeon, trumps my 46k starting gold) So if I were to make a new character it would have to be something thats could fit easily into the current roles.
Party consists of:
Fey template - Oracle of Life
Shield specialist Fighter
Barbarian
Scout Rogue
Archer Alchemist
So I am looking for ideas for something that would fit with this group. Witch fit nicely since I was the only source of debuffing, and the consistent fortune on the party made them much stronger overall. I just find that I am consistently getting knocked unconscious/ finally killed but the party wound up getting me resurrected.
I was contemplating some sort of sorcerer, possible a Kitsune Fey Sorcerer. Or maybe a Lion Shaman. Maybe some dips in paladin/oracle to make my character live. Open to some crazy suggestions for a character to try out!
