I plan on playing an upcoming 3.5 edition DND campaign and wished to play a totemist for something new and different. I have a build in mind and was just looking for any advice or critisms.
I plan on playing a dessert kobold in order to use dragon tail (feet) and claws of the wyrm (hands) from dragon magic. Along with these soulmelds I plan to use girallon arms (totem), lammasu mantle (arms), mantle of flame (shoulder) with shape soulmeld, and heart of fire (waist). With the rest being less important and as I choose. The only ones for sure being bound to chakra are the girallon arms and lammasu mantle to totem, and the heart of fire to waist.
I plan to pick up two flaws at first level.
level 1 I will get Bind vestige (Aym) for halo of fire for 1d6 damage to attackers and 1d6 damage on natural attacks. At level 1 I will also get martial maneuver (doesnt matter) and martial stance (punishing stance) -2 ac +1d6 per attack.
level 3 shape soulmeld mantle of flame.
level 6 multiattack.
level 9 double chakra (totem).
level 12 improved multiattack
possibly sacred vow and vow of poverty later on.
With this build by level 2 i will have 3 soulmelds, one of which will be bound. This will be girallon arms bound, claws of the wyrm and dragon tail unbound. This will give me four girallon arm claw attacks, 2 claws of the wyrm attacks which also specify claws and arms that appear above your own so stack with girallon, 1 tail attack and 1 natural kobold bite attack for a total of 8. I will also get +1d6 damage from punishing stance and +1d6 from halo of fire. This will also cause attackers to take 1d6 damage from halo of fire and 2d6 damage from mantle of flame with one essentia as long as they are not using reach weapons.
Not sure if I will end up playing this character for obvious reasons was just curious on opinions, advice, criticisms, and if this is actually feasible by the rules. Thanks for reading my first post.
