So for an upcoming game I'm building a character and thought I'd like to try something out of the ordinary. It's a home brew game where everyone is basically the squire to a commander of sorts. We'll have to follow a sworn Oath, and sort of code of conduct set up by said commander.
I'm building a Kensai Blade bound Magus, but I'm curious about ways to "shake" my Oath and code if I need to get a little more shady then my lord would like. Are there any feats or features that allow you to do something like that?
I thought maybe vigilante or Nameless One feat may work, but was told the new intrigue book had some rules to possibly pull this off. Any help or suggestions would be great!
TL;DR Is there a way to have multiple identities without being a vigilante in order to by pass a code or Oath taken in one identity. If I was X character, and swapped to Y identity, am I still bound by the codes of conduct of X. Sorry if that was confusing, or is confusing.
Disguise skill of course
Linguistics can be used to forge documents
Disguise self spell/hat of disguise
If you combine these you should be able to set up and maintain alternate identities.
If you have to have class abilities to do it Spymaster from complete adventurer is great if 3.5 material allowed
You shouldn't have to follow your oath while in disguise but as a dm I would make sure to try and publicly reveal this at several points. IF it got out expect things to go very very badly in short order
