Hey all.

Looking for some advice on yet another SBEG build. This time, it's for a Doppleganger Soul Eater (BoVD).

The reqs for SE are BAB +5, Alertness, Weapon Focus (natural weapon) and Knowledge (Arcana) 2 ranks.

Doppleganger has BAB +4, meaning if I take 1 level in a full BAB class, I can go straight into SE. I'm looking for him to be CR 9, which would mean Doppleganger (X)1/Soul Eater 5.

So, my questions are:

1.) What a good full BAB class for a 1 level dip? Fighter for a bonus feat? Barbarian for rage & movement? Hexblade or Duskblade to get the Knowledge (Arcana) ranks? (Note: no ToB used in our games)

2.) Feats - two are burnt on reqs, leaving 2 to spend. I'm leaning towards Able Learner, since SE gets 4 skill points/level, but a fairly craptacular selection of skills.

Acquire flight (Winged or Half-Fey template is easiest), take Flyby Attack, drain levels and then flit back into the air.

Barbarian for pounce probably.

Soul Eater doesn't need Pounce, their signature ability is a standard action.
