So, I had a thought that has been mulling about in my head a bit, and I've been wondering how to improve it. The basic premise is to utilise the Torture subdomain on an inquisitor, to make a character that effectively demoralises everything that he approaches. Currently I'm thinking of building a Human Inquisitor with a dip in Rogue (Thug), picking up Combat Reflexes, Power Attack, and Hurtful.
The basic premise is that the character uses a longspear, painful smite hits things for nonlethal w/ free intimidate check, gets damage done as bonus to intimidate roll, when hits can hit again as a swift action, then gets an AoO for foes panicking and leaving threatened squares. Legit? Thoughts?
