D&D 3e/3.5e/d20The forum for conversations specifically related to the rules and procedures of Dungeons & Dragons 3rd Edition, 3.5 Edition, or any fantasy game using the d20 system or a variant thereof (commercially published or not).
Our DM has asked we roll up a second character in case our first dies and I can't decide between a Lizardfolk DFA/Midbender or a Human Factotum. Thoughts?

What does the Dragonfire Adept and Mindbender add to each other? Mostly DFAs are single class characters.

I'd bet money that the mindbender aspect of that character is a one level dip for mindsight and nothing more. If that's the case the OP probably would've done better to ask for help deciding between a DFA and a factotum with no mention of the mind-bender thing.
The alternative is that he's considering actually running a full 10 levels of mindbender, but that'd make DFA a rather unusual entry class.
Ultimately the OP doesn't give enough info for anyone to give him any really meaningful advice. (hint, hint, op. )

Work on my homebrew system, CRE8, is still marching slowly onwards. I think I can see the light at the end of the tunnel -- an Alpha release -- in the distance now. Read my Design Goals here.
Also, the DM has allowed a Lesser Lizardfolk homebrew if I go DFA. Mostly, the race would be for flavor sincemy last character in the Faerun setting was a LF Barbarian/Runescar, he'd be a descendant.
Dropping 1-2 levels from DFA doesn't hurt you that much and Mindbender 1 is as good a dip as any other.
Yeah, but the OP didn't mention 1 level dip. I was asking clarification on that point, and the OP gave it.
