Well, this is a lot to work with.

As for the Prestige clbumes…

I like the look of the Disciple of Dispater, and power over iron? How can I resist? Not as crazy about Jubilex, ooze isn’t really my thing. Warrior of Darkness looks interesting, but he’d need some help, perhaps from a certain wizard… that might be an option if they become something resembling friends. I’ll try and keep all those options open, and see how he develops as the game goes on.

Intimidating Strike is from Player’s Handbook II. I don’t really have access to 3.0 material, so you’re gonna have to spell these things out for me. I can just replace that with Weapon Specialisation (Halberd) if you want, that was my other option for that slot. I think.

Downloading the PDF now. In the meantime, those other boots look good. He’s in big heavy armour and all, so something to compensate for that will probably be welcome. Although stocking up on potions also sounds like a good idea…

I also gotta think in character. Zak doesn’t seem like the most creative kinda guy, so I doubt he’d invest in a Bag of Tricks. Amulet of Natural Armour… eh. Looks exactly the same as a +1 Ring, not that that’s a bad thing.

The boots mean I’ll have to ditch something else… so maybe I’ll just go for some potions. He already has Jump anyway.

How about 2 Potions of Bull’s Strength, and 2 Potions of Cure Moderate Wounds?
