...with multiple arms, preferably 4.

Or, possibly better, the feats that allow someone to be grafted with 2 extra, fully usable arms.

Non-Psionic Thri-Kreen. Shining South. 4 arms/claws and a bite. +1 LA, 2 racial hit die. Also, this thread (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?p=7066595).

Thri-kreen is the standard one. Four arms, 2hd monstrous humanoid, LA +2 for the psionic version and +1 for nonpsionic. They look kinda like mantis-men.

Psionic version is in Savage Species/XPH. Nonpsionic is in MM2, I think.

Edit: Aw, beaten.

Edit2: If you have the Dragonblood subtype you can take 'Draconic Tail' and then 'Prehensile Tail (http://realmshelps.dandello.net/cgi-bin/feats.pl?Prehensile_Tail,)' for effectively another hand. A dragonblooded thri-kreen might be a hard sell - you'd probably need the Draconic template at +1 LA - but with that and multiattack you're up to quintuple-wielding.

I'm not sure if the Yuan-ti graft 'extra tail' qualifies you for Prehensile Tail. It gives you a constriction attack, but I suspect that doesn't count.

Feh... no love for Diopsids? No racial HD, only +1 LA. In Dragon Compendium.

Hmm. I guess I need to dig up my "extra hands" post and paste it over in your "Extra Attacks" thread.

Dolgrims 1HD, 2 LA. 4 Arms, 2 mouths. They can make offhand penalties that are one handed at no penalty (so don't need light weapons for TWfing to be -2/-2).
DR 5/byeshk so very few bypass it.
