    Beyond using a whip, the character can be any party role. I'm picturing either a fighter-controller type or a skillmonkey who uses the whip to maintain a safe distance.
    Straight from Dictum Mortum's Duskblade Handbook - a burst damager, primarily designed to kill mooks, though, it's probably not what you imagined, it actually seems to be pretty cool.

    If you're fine with 3.0 material, here's an Indiana Jones'esque character, capable of holding his own in a fight for you, made by myself:

    Human Barbarian 1/Fighter 4/Lasher 8/Exotic Weapon Master 3/Crusader 2/Warblade 2/Swordsage 1

    Ability Scores: High Strength, High Dexterity, Decent Intelligence, Decent Constitution.

    Barbarian 1 Jotunbrud or Extra Rage, Education, Whirling Frenzy ACF, Spiritual Lion Totem ACF
    Fighter 1 Exotic Weapon Proficiency: Whip
    Fighter 2 Knowledge Devotion, Combat Reflexes
    Fighter 3
    Fighter 4 Weapon Focus: Whip
    Lasher 1 Power Attack
    Lasher 2 Improved Trip
    Lasher 3
    Lasher 4 Knock-Down
    Lasher 5
    Lasher 6 Improved Disarm
    Lasher 7 Robilar's Gambit
    Lasher 8
    Exotic Weapon Master 1 Flurry of Strikes Stunt
    Exotic Weapon Master 2 Defensive Sweep, Uncanny Blow Stunt
    Exotic Weapon Master 3 Trip Attack Stunt
    Crusader 1
    Crusader 2 Craven
    Warblade 1
    Swordsage 1

    All in all, the build gets 4 additional attacks when in rage, it's penalty, pretty much, negated by Knowledge Devotion, with 19 BAB ending up with 8 attacks per round, also dealing x2 strength damage instead of x1.5. With flaws availible, both Extra Rage and Jotunbrud are recommended. Has pounce, 9th level maneuvers and has decent versatility outside of combat. A good trick on AoO's would be to trip your opponent and use your additional attack due to Improved Trip to disarm him = total humiliation. Overall, a fun build to play, IMO.

    A two weapon claw fighter, might like to use poisons, might like to flurry, bonus points if you can add stealthy and athletic shenanigans into the mix.

    His backstory is he's an ex-monk (levels in monk aren't entirely necessary, but martial artist and far eastern flavor is) who used to run with this rogue type that taught him how to use poisons, and so he got on the bad side of the law for a while, but now he's surviving on his own looking to perfect his art/fighting style.

    The claws aren't really that important, I'm sure any number of different weapons would work fine, but the flavor is what matters.

    I need an OP caharacter of a non-standard race optimized to go with a party that is way too caster heavy. Also, My DM does not allow Psionics.

    A Naruto style ninja. Not the realistic stealthy ninja who wear black..no...I am looking for a naruto style shinobi who kicks stealth to the curb and instead relies on magic spells("Jutsu" is the proper term, but they are basically spells)and can be good at martial arts at the same time. Bonus points if you can find a way to simulate "Kekki Genkai" or even sealed beasts.

    This thread has stats for many of the most important/popular characters, you can rip off a build or get some ideas...IIRC there is even stats for both the Kyubi and the Shukaku

    From 339's "A Look Into the Potential of Stormguard Warrior"
    Fighter 4/Warblade 1/Crusader5/Knight 10 - A very interesting option. "Thicket of Blades" combined with the Knight's already impressive lockdown abilities is scary.
    Any LA+0 race works, though the larger characters have a marked advantage.

    a ECL 10 creature with at least five templates and either a base race with +2 RHD or LA, that at the final result retains its original type.

    Could you give me feat optimization and what levels to take what class to get maximum effect? My group OP's in every direction. I have trouble keeping my power level equivalent with my druid. It just breaks all of DnD.
