I was playing different online games, and I came upon Final Fantasy XI, and I fell in love with 2 of the jobs for it, Dragoon, and Dark Knight. Dragoon was easy enough to convert to DnD .5, (Fighter specializing in spear, recives an animal companion) but the Dark Knight was so much fun, I wanted to convert it, and not just another anti-paladin. What I came up with seems a little too overpowered, but then hes a danger to himself, as much as his oppenents. What I came up with seems more like a tactical nuke, rather then a PC. Tell me what you think.
Dark Knight is a 5 lvl Prestige Class,
requirements: bab +6/+1, power attack, medium or heavy armor prof., and have experienced some terrible event, either directly or indirectly. Any non-lawful, non good alignment.
class features: gains exotic weapon prof., Scythe
levels 1,2,3,4,5 +1/+1 to base attack.
level 3: Last Resort Add a total of +5 to base attack, at the expense of AC, last one round.
level 5: Soul Eater May Add up to half of current HP plus con bonus to damage.
This is the 3rd incarnation of Dark Knight, the first version had a small spell list, but I pulled it because it was starting to look like an anti-pally. Most times, trying to convert an online game doesnt work so well. And with the rumors about 4th Ed. will prolly render most, if not all, homebrewed classes useless.
