Hi everyone.

It all started with this: The good old Fistbeard beardfist.
http://brilliantgameologists.com/boards/index.php?topic=7814.0

I am interested in playing such a character soon. Starting Lv 12 or 13.
32 point buy
Almost any book allowed except Dragon and some rather exotic books. If possible I would like to avoid Bot9s as thats a special case.

My group so far will consist of :
Wizzard (Meta and envoc, usually fire)
Barbarian all the way
Cleric/ ord. champ/ - he will be switching to DM so he will be rather passive and buffing
A rather nooby druid who can change into dragons.
A ranger rogue mix, shooting arrows.

I am not sure how to build this character, as I never had anything to do with monks or unarmed attacks in general.
Is it better to go monk for flurry or two weapon fighting barbarian/ fighter stile ?

Build ideas:
Barb 1/ 3Lvs of a full BAB class/ Fist of the forest 3/ deep warden2/ frostrager 3

Or the monk way ? Like in the link
Ranger 2/ Monk 2/ Deepwarden2/ Fist of the forest 3/ Kensai or other ?

I would like the character to be a real brawler, that likes to compete with strong enemys and smashing them to a pulp with his fists.
Grapple/ Disarm or Trip are always welcome too.

Open for ideas.

I rebuild the good old Fistbeard beardfist.

Starting on Lv12
Ranger 1/ Monk 2/ Ranger 2 / Deepwarden2/ Fist of the forest 3/ Kensai 2
The classic build

But as I am rather new to unarmed and Kensai I want to check if I calculate the dmg correctly:

Impr. Unarmed + Monk belt = MonkLv7
>1d8 dmg
>2d6 dmg (Fanged ring)
>3d6>4d6 (Fist of the forest Lv1+Lv3)

Kensai allows me to use a +2 Beard
With the amulet of nat attacks I can even enchant it like a weapon up to +5Beard of ... total of 5other enchant levels. Eager, warning, holy, and another 1Lv enchantment.

If I take Hammer fist feat +1.5 STR

1) Could somebody check if this is correct so far ?
2) Fist of the forest says that myfist/beard becomes magical, does it become ghost touch when I enchant it with Kensai ?
