So, I've got a hexblade/Avenging executioner character, and I went a little bit fear orientated - it made a change and worked well with the hexblade's whole 'minus to saves' shtick.
But I'm worried that soon I'll find some undead or some paladins or something, and I'll end up as a very squishy, very average fighter.
Now, I know that having a single trick (in this case, being scary) is a bad strategy - and it isn't my only trick, it just happens to be my best one.
So, I had a look around, and I found Dread Witch from Heroes of Horror - and I was having a look at the delightful 'greater master of terror' thing - and found that they can scare enemies immune to fear.
Problem is that it only works on my spells - which I wasn't really looking at. So, what I'm looking for is being scary enough to scare those immune to fear - is there anything out there for that? A feat like blistering spell, perhaps? If you can overcome fire immunity, surely I can overcome a little thing like a Paladin being pretty hard to scare?
