Just as an exercise, I'm curious to see if anyone can, using D&D 3.5 rules, create a character that does or approximates this:

Ground rules:
Humanoid with no more than two arms.

The whole 'sword porcupine' thing is ridiculous. I'm glad he only did that once.
Bee could be statted as a Talashatora Ardent pretty easily, though.

Ground rules:
Humanoid with no more than two arms.You had to make it difficult... Mechanically that's the same as having multiple arms. :smallannoyed: Braid blades then?

Maybe a druid build to cover the shapeshifting and animal friendship. Frozen Wild Shape (modified into "Burning Wild Shape") into an eight-headed pyrohydra?

Or a totemist. Totem rager? A druidic avenger (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/variant/classes/variantCharacterClasses.htm#druidVariantDruidicAve nger) could meet the prereqs.

Bee is obviously a Pseudonatural creature since he can turn into a mass of tentacles.

Okay, posted a build at BG (http://brilliantgameologists.com/boards/index.php?topic=6002.msg381038#msg381038). It's scaled to the existing builds, mind, meaning lv26.

For his ability to attack like THAT, excluding his Jinchuiruki powers, I'd say he's PROBABLY a Dervish, if anything. That's what makes most sense to me anyway. Probably with +5 Wounding Keen Shocking Burst Katana (Scimitar stats probably) and obviously at least a one level dip into Bard :smallbiggrin:

I'd say that'll do it. I do need to give the rest of that thread a read though...

Looks like a master thrower who can throw anything. Except with melee, i guess.

Dang, I read the title and thought this thread was about a build that used killer bees as an attack method

Haha, forgot about the HIVE. Killer bees with 1230945610 9th level spontaneous arcane spells, no less!

...using D&D 3.5 rules...

You had to go and make it difficult

:smallbiggrin:

The main problem is blending both his melee-dance style of fighting with the various jutsu (spells/psionics/whatever) he undoubtedly possesses, as a ninja.

Technically, I only asked about the wielding-seven-swords-in-places-other-than-his-hands part. But Prime32 seems to have gotten more or less the whole thing anyways.

I know...I was wondering what the LA for a giant bee was...I was so sad to see an utter lack of actual killer bees.
