For RP reasons, I have decided to give my warforged fighter in a 3.5 campaign that I am in prestige class levels in planar champion and horizon walker.
Planar champion first because I am built for it, and horizon walker when I get the ranks in knowledge geography. (Current character level is 6 and ready to take the first level in planar champion)
However, I might be able to get the DM to allow me to use the Pathfinder version of the horizon walker prestige class. The questions are:
Should I do this if allowed?
Should I just stick with planar champion?
Should I just stick with fighter? (I am really leaning towards "no" on this one)
The character concept here if needed is that my character is a warforged who was purchased for the sole purpose of warding a newborn child of two powerful mages. The child was the only humanoid he had ever seen develop from "A small misshapen lump of clay that needed a day or two more in the blacksmiths forge" to a young girl that " Could still use some work in the forge, but somewhat presentable if she must be human"
That girl was then abducted by powerful enemies which led to many many years of my character searching the world (and planes) for her before this adventure even began.
Obviously this is a RP heavy campaign, which is why I am considering levels of horizon walker in the first place. So. What should I do?
