I'm making more cohorts for a campaign that my friend is running, but due to him not wanting me to deploy more than one cohort to battle at a time (to prevent me stealing the spotlight, which is kinda already happening since the whole campaign revolves around my character's goal to take over the world). I've decided to make a "plot character" aka someone who can help advance the plot, by knowing anything the DM needs to tell us in character.
Basically a person who is good at one thing, and one thing only, maxing her knowledge skills to the upper levels.
Now the race is likely going to be gnome due to the feat "trivia knowledge" which lets you roll twice, but now I need help getting feats and class abilities that boost ALL knowledge checks, and not just some of them.
I will likely be using the "Master" class from dragonlance due to it's 8 skill points, and all knowledge skills as class skills, but this campaign is gestalt so if you have any other base classes feel free to point them out.
Prestige classes can be used on both sides of the build, so if you find two prestige classes that work, feel free to offer them both!
Templates that boost intelligence or knowledge will also be helpful.
To my knowledge there are the following knowledge skills.
arcana, engineering, dungeoneering, geography, history, local, nature, royalty, religion, planes, war
Which makes 11 skills I need to get to max ranks and give bonuses to.
Thanks for all the help!
