Hello all! I am trying to work on a kitsune ninja, who does assassination stuff and in general is a big spy. I'm more favoring tactics to escape and deceive, but some combat potential is of course needed. The build I have built so far is below, but I mostly need help with the rather intimidating list of Ninja tricks/Rogue talents/Stalker Vigilante talents at my disposal.
Name: Yako (given name is Todd)
Race: Kitsune
Gender: Male
Class: Ninja
Racial bonuses: +2Dex/Cha, -2Str, Low-light vision, bite attack, change shape
Alternate Racial:
Superior shifter-+Fox shape @ lv 1, replaces Kitsune magic
Gregarious: After a successful diplomacy check, target takes -2 vs all your Charisma-based checks for 24 hours. Replaces Agile
Traits: ? Unknown
Favored class bonus available: +1/6th magical tail feat
Stat distribution: CHA>DEX>INT>CON>WIS>STR
Focus: Party face, information gathering, deception.
Build idea so far: Take realistic likeness @ first level for all the shapechanging goodness, and build a two-weapon fighting rogue with sneak attack and vanishing trick/invisible blade. The main idea for the character though, is being a spy, he uses his high skill points for ranks in things like stealth, linguistics, sense motive, diplomacy, bluff, And his ability to change shapes with something like the sleeves of many garments to be able to in a turn or two, entirely change appearance and personality. He would be a more party face social character, and would use his deception (disguise/bluff/diplomacy) to help the party through more social situations, without being dead weight in combat.
Bonus points for the party, in game and the players themselves, not knowing you are a kitsune or a ninja, bluff you are playing a human rogue. Your vanishing trick is "a stealth check so good I effectively turn invisible", and your shape change kitsune ability is you just being really good with a disguise kit, etc.
I am more than open to changing the character a bit to better suit the end goal, but mostly feat suggestions and help with all the tricks/talents would be the most appreciated. Thank you all for your time!
