What is the earliest entry for a bone knight?

[CyberThread]

I don't own five nations or such, but a player at my table asked me how early a bone knight could be entered, and I have no clue.

BAB req of +4, so fourth level assuming a full BAB character that can cast 1st level divine spells, turn/rebuke undead, and has Craft, Know (religion), and Ride on their class list. In other words, a Paladin.

You could probably do it as a third level character given a bard inspiring greatness when you tried to qualify... How much cheese do you want? Should I try to find a way to boost skill ranks to get it at second?

I don't think you can cheat skill ranks, as even feats count as boosters rather then actual ranks.

There is at least one feat that grants actual skill ranks IIRC, "contact" or something to that tune from city scape.

1. Bard uses Inspire Greatness - +2 HD.

2. Use Psychic Reformation to fiddle with your skill ranks - your skill rank limit is equal to your HD plus 3, so it's two higher.

3. ???

4. Profit!
