Best way to build Jarlaxle Baenre in PFS?


Advice

Dark Archive

I'm having to make a new character in PFS to get credit for when I run We Be Goblins this weekend, and I'm planning on trying to build a homage to Jarlaxle. I'm making him a half drow for the drow magic stuff, and I'm thinking that going mostly swashbuckler with some levels of occultist for crazy ability to use magic items. Apart from that, I'm not sure what to do. I know I really can't get or afford some of his iconic magic items like the portable hole, the feather that summons an axebeak, the eyepatch that sees through illusions, the wand of viscous globs, or the bracer that shoots an endless stream of daggers. I still want to get as close as I can though. I'd like to hear the communities's input.

It’ll be difficult with PFS restraints and the limp point-buy.

Swashbuckler is obviously good. Outside PFS I’d take a heavy look at Arcane Trickster from Marc Radle’s ‘New Paths Compendium.’
