A couple of notes:

• We rolled for stats and I was very fortunate with my rolls.
  
• We have been playing for a few sessions so things are pretty set and can't be changed without the GM's approval.
  
• He currently has the Cruelty drawback, but that may change. The GM recongized that it was going to seriously harm my character in a fight in this game.

This is Azikiwe Akobundo, my character for Skull & Shackles. We are about two weeks of in game time into the AP and things have been going really well. Azikiwe is acompanied by the following:

• A catfolk rogue focusing on fighting with claws. He is pretty decent in the frontlines as long as he can flank.
  
• A human bloodrager who is our front line DPR at the moment.
  
• A half-elf inquisitor of Besmara. He focuses on distance with a longbow but can switch to a rapier when needed.
  
• A human tattooed sorcerer. She has been staying far back for now.
  
• A teifling bard (no archetype.) Needs to stay in back lines.
  

Azikiwe is designed to be about mid-field to front lines. I plan on getting him a trip reach weapons and using that to help out the catfolk and bloodrager. The idea isn't nessicarily to trip but to reposition foes to help the rogue gain flanking, and eventually to give people attacks of opportunity. He will almost always have his bite attack in combat, so if someone closes in on him he has an attack that still threatens.

So far he has been a character of surprises. Because I don't have to pump so much focus into DPR, and because I have one of the highest Intelligence scores in the party, I have been able to do some fun things with this character. I plan on taking the Improved Reposition, Greater Dirty Trick, Greater Reposition, Tactical Reposition, and possible the Quick DirtyTrick/Reposition feats. I may still get Greater Weapon focus for a hooked lance, but I am considering skipping out on Greater Weapon Specialization.

What I am considering doing, and would appreciate some advice on is 3rd level. I am thinking of dipping into another class for a two or three levels, possibly spreading them out between fighter levels.

I am considering rogue as it will give me a couple more skill points (Lore warden gives me +2 to put into Knowledge skills, and I am using the favored class bonus for +1 skill point,) maybe an neat archetype ability (haven't really picked one but rogue archtypes are pretty front loaded,) and at 3rd getting evasion to help protect the character a bit more.

I am open to other suggestions as well. Bard might be a good one but I haven't really seen much there that excites me besides the class skill bonuses and skill ranks.

What do you all suggest?
