Help with a build for a shamanic flavor character

[Persychan]

I need some help with creating a build for shamanic new character. The campaign level's 20 and all 3.5 content are are allowed (Dragon Magazine and Dungeon too)

She's a shaman of some kind of Amazon tribe, but she's also a warrior (less than a real warrior, but you know she can make some damage with a weapon), she's Good and the tribe is connect with a Silver Dragon so I'd like to put some link with this fact also in her sheet ^^ But this last point isn't compelling need.

My idea, at the moment, is some kind of build with Nightstalker (I love the idea of having a "spirit guide") with nomad shaman levels, but I don't know how to make her more...warrior type?

Any suggestion?

Take a few levels of Sohei? It's kind of a weird mash of Paladin, Monk, and Barbarian in its features. So you definitely got the divine conduit feel going along with some warrior mojo. Not going to claim it's high powered, but when I've seen people play it they've enjoyed it.

Of course, same book, the actual Shaman class. Get your spellcasting on, spirit related abilities, undead turning, unarmed combat, etc, all in one package. Always liked it.

Spirit Shaman! One of my favorite classes, and under-respected IMO. They get druid spells, a useful and powerful spirit guide, some nifty combat abilities for facing "spirits," and one of the coolest spellcasting mechanics. This is on top of some other high-level goodies, like true resurrections for party members AND yourself - at high level, if a spirit shaman dies, he comes right back again.

Check 'em out, they are in complete divine.

Personally I like all the Incarnum classes.
Go with the wild one(forget what it is called, oh, maybe totemist I think)
So go with totemist
Based on what things you bind to yourself you get different abilities (could be combat mostly, but also buff and some casting like)
The class is themed as a primal spirit shaman type person. May be good for a level or two dip, get your totem binding on and bind things like beast claws, Eagle claws I think or the one remain conscious always and not die until -13 or even lower than that.

As Lime Juice Powder said, Spirit shaman. It really is one of the coolest classes out there.
Alternatively, you could choose a Druid with Dragon wild shape. and make a Silverbrow human.

Have the tribe all be silverbrows and all be druids, spirit shaman, Dragon shaman, and dragonfire adepts.

Spirit shaman is more connected with the spirit world, but druid is more connected with the natural living world.

Well Dragon Shaman comes to mind, a very good passive buffer and not to bad at combat, and then there is the Totemist from magic of incarnum, their kinda quirky but very shaman-y

Divine bard with a silver dragon bloodline.
As a divine bard your character can -perform- rituals that have a profound magical effect on those observing.
You get to be a religious specialist who is moderately good at combat
If possible get PT:Catalogues of Enlightenment:Spirit domain to turn spirits
Straightup bards works too.

Either way get spellbreaker song.
