For my the next campaign i want to play a flavorful character.
After a while i finished a Dragonborn Raptoran Cleric 6
I will have Bahamut as a deity and i wanted a cold flavor as well as stick with the dragon flavor.
I took, extend spell, persistent spell and DMM as feats so i can persist Ice Axe.
If allowed by the DM i want to have Winter added to the Bahamut domains and use Winter and Cold domains.
As spells i have almost only cold spells, preferably as little damage spells as possible. I do not have the list with me, but it includes:
Ice Beast I-III (Frostburn)
Ice Slick (Frostburn)
Obscuring Snow (Frostburn)
Snowsight (Frostburn, if it allows me to see through obscuring snow)
Sleet Storm (PHB)
Snowshoes (SpC, to walk over Ice Slick and Sleet Storm)
Shivering Touch (Frostburn)
....some others
I want to use a Blue Ice Full Plate and Blue Ice Shield.
And since i had flight from raptoran, i could choose between a breath weapon and the sight.
Because of the flavor i really want to take the breath weapon, but i do feel i "should" have darkvision on this character.
So i took a look around and came across the Dragonfire Adept. Perfectly in flavor. Through an invocation i can get Darkvision and See invisibility and i get part of the other bonuses i miss out on with the free Dragontouched feat.
However i am stuck with a 1d6 Firebreath ability that does not fit the character. I was hoping i could convince the DM to exchange this ability for something else, perhaps improving the Dragonborn Breathweapon by 1 HD (so i get 4d8 at level 8 instead of 9). Does that sound fair?
So now my plan is a Cleric 5/Dragonfire Adept 1. Perhaps even going into an adaptation of Eldritch Disciple.
I was hoping that anyone could give some comment on my character, perhaps a nice way to add more flavor or improve optimization. Do note that flavor trumps optimization in this case.
Oh, and the rest of my group is probably semi-optimized. Along the lines of a not perfectly optimized Warblade or a Blasting-sorceror.
<edit> oh, and i have a pic custom made for me :D
