Rebuilding Plugg, Scourge, and maybe others with the ACG? [spoilers]

[Paladin of Baha-who?]

My players stop reading here! Spoilers below!

Has anyone tried rebuilding Plugg, Scourge, or any of the other characters of this AP using the ACG? Swashbuckler sounds like a perfect fit for Plugg, and Scourge just seems like a Slayer to me.

Among the allies, Cog might also work as a Slayer. Owlbear might conceivably be done as a brawler, if you wanted to make the fight with him much more difficult, or to balance it against the type of character who would be highly effective against him, e.g. a monk, another brawler, or a fighter with IUS. Conchobar could conceivably be an investigator, but I prefer him as a bard. Rosie could be a Skald, possibly, but I don't feel like changing her that much.

Plugg as a Swashbuckler:

Swashbuckler Finesse At 1st level, a swashbuckler gains the benefits of the Weapon Finesse feat with light or one-handed piercing melee weapons, and she can use her Charisma score in place of Intelligence as a prerequisite for Combat Expertise. This ability counts as hav

Improvements: His reflex save, AC, and skills are better. He gets Panache and deeds which lets you use things like intimidate and parry/riposte and so forth which makes the fight more interesting. His crit range doubles, but only 1d6+2 will be doubled on a crit, so it's less deadly. Charmed Life will help against failed saves.

Offsets: Fort save lower, even with use of charmed life. Melee attack bonus slightly lower (could be offset by replacing a feat with WF: cutlass), attack bonus with cat significantly lower.

Scourge as a Slayer:

Master Scourge CR 3
XP 800
Human Slayer 4
NE Medium humanoid (human)
Init +3; Senses Perception +5
--------------------

--------------------
AC 17, touch 13, flat-footed 14 (+4 armor, +3 Dex)
hp 35 (4d10+8)
Fort +6, Ref +7, Will +4
--------------------
Offense
--------------------
Speed 30 ft.
Melee masterwork axe, boarding +8 (1d6+2/×3) and
. . masterwork whip +9 (1d3+2 nonlethal) and
. . punching dagger +7 (1d4+2/×3)
Ranged shortbow +7 (1d6/×3)

--------------------
Statistics
--------------------
Str 14, Dex 16, Con 15, Int 10, Wis 12, Cha 8
Base Atk +4; CMB +6; CMD 19
Feats Exotic Weapon Proficiency (whip), Iron Will, Weapon Finesse, Weapon Focus (whip)
Skills Acrobatics +7, Bluff +6, Climb +8, Intimidate +6, Perception +5, Profession (sailor) +8, Sense Motive +6, Sleight of Hand +6, Stealth +9, Survival +5, Swim +6
Languages Common
SQ slayer talents (finesse rogue, poison use), track +2
Combat Gear black adder venom (8), dark reaver powder, oil of taggit (8); Other Gear masterwork chain shirt, arrows (20), masterwork axe, boarding, masterwork whip, punching dagger, shortbow, ring of sustenance
--------------------
Special Abilities
--------------------
Favored Target (+1, 1 at a time, Move) (Ex) Study foe as a Move action, gain +1 to att/dam & some skills vs. them.
Poison Use (Ex) You cannot accidently poison your self when applying poison to a weapon
Ring of sustenance Immune to hunger and thirst, and only sleep two hours a night.
Sneak Attack +1d6 Attacks deal extra dam if flank foe or if foe is flat-footed.
Track +2 Add the listed bonus to survival checks made to track.

Improvements: attack bonus is better, especially when he has time to study an opponent first. Poison use is better than bleeding attack (really not a useful power) since it fits with his preferred tactics. having more skills lets him be a bit more of a challenge to sneak by or fool.
Offsets: No trapfinding (I don't think that makes much difference), no disable device (ditto), fewer feats meaning initiative and intimidate is lower (this is significant, as lower init may mean no chance to go at all).

I wish I'd seen this before we did our final battle last week. It was rather anti-climatic as the NPC's were written. I hope you do this with a bunch more of the NPC's.

[Jericho Graves]

I haven't done this but I might consider doing it for my wife. She's the one DMing the module, but I tend to do alot of her crunch. She's great at telling the story, a little bit worse at running combats.

[Paladin of Baha-who?]

I need to update these to the latest versions of the ACG classes. Too busy right now, and I don't have the book yet anyway. Soon...

[Babbling Bazzar]

I did this for Owlbear as a brawler. I feel like he is more suited to the brawler class than as an unarmed fighter. I waited until after the fourth day and my PCs befriending him to change his class up.

I will post the build if anyone is interested. I tried to keep everything as similar as possible but I tossed out Throw Anything from his feat list so he'd fit to the build. I figured if he really was going to throw something, he could just use martial flexibility to pick up the feat unless you anted to give him something else instead

[LeesusFreak]

I'd love to see everyone's custom NPC builds, if for nothing other than inspiration.
