So my DM is running a game using the Pathfinder Rules Set, 3.5 for any classes that don't currently exist in PF, and d20 Modern (mostly) for the Wealth and Gun rules. Four out of the five players are using Pathfinder base classes for butt-kicking and name-taking purposes. The fifth wants to play the party face, and wants to use the Charismatic Hero class to do it.
While there will be actual social intrigue this time 'round, I get the feeling that, due to the mehness of d20 Modern base classes, he's going to feel superbly weaksauce compared to everyone else. To prevent this, I suggested the idea of playing a Beguiler, which he didn't like due to the fact that he didn't see his character as a magic-wielding one (which I totally get).
So I turn to you, denizens of the Playground and masters of CharOps, with two questions.
1. Is it possible to make the Charismatic Hero not suck?
2. How possible is it to convert the Beguiler into a mundane party face extraordinaire?
Thanks a whole bunch for reading! I'm eager to see what you guys think! :smallbiggrin:
