I am working on an Aasimar Rogue(Burglar)/Master Spy with focus on disguise, traps and poison. The idea is that he can use most of his abilities (especially disguise) without using magic (for example to foil True Seeing).
What I am aiming for character-wise is a mix of "the Spy" from Team Fortress 2 and Hans Landa from Inglorious Bastards.
A backstabbing scumbag that can talk your ear of (and no I do not plan on backstabbing my fellow players) and within a moment's notice assume a new identity to fool the enemy.
Despite his non-magical focus, magic items are still essential.
The following items are pretty much obligatory:
Hat of Disguise will allow him to quickly blend in when there is no magical detection.
Armor with glamor enhancement allows him to simply put up some makeup (1 round with the right talents) to pass as a member of an army/guard etc.
Circlet of persuasion and +x to Charisma boosts the main skills
Helm of Telepathy would be interesting for the Spy part.
Helm of Comprehend Languages would be nice for scouting (although the character will be able to speak a lot of languages naturally thanks to the alternative racial trait of the Aasimar)
I am looking for some more items along that line. Boosting the key skills or give new interesting options. There are so many items now it is hard to choose.
Please do not comment that the character is too weak or useless in battle. It is not for a PFS game and we handle our private rounds quite relaxed with a lot of leeway.
Also I am quite happy with my selection of race and class for flavor reasons.
Robe of Blending, Poisoner's Gloves, Mummer's Ruff, Medallion of Thoughts, Quickchange Cloak, Sleeves of Many Garments, Bracelet of Bargaining.
Just a few items off the top of my head.
Oh dear. The Mummer's Ruff is perfect for the character.
Robe of Blending is also nice.
Poisoner's Gloves are odd. Why do I need magical gloves for that function? It sounds more like a non-magical item.
Medallion of Thoughs a cheaper version of the helmet. Very nice.
Quickchange Cloak. I didn't know this existed. This will be my first item I get o.o
And the Sleeves I can use until I can afford magic armor.
And the bracelet gives another boost.
Thanks for this great selection. I think I have everything I need :)
