Was parsing through my Documents folder recently, and came across a build stub (well, stats minus gear) for an NPC I wrote up a while ago. I figured I'd post it here, get some opinions on the overall build, suggestions for gear, and just see what everyone thinks of it. Before the juicy part, though, a few things that need to be stated.
1) This is using my interpretation of 3.5/PF rules, ie both are valid, but PF stock rules take precedence due to being more recent.
2) I intentionally took the 3.5 Assassin PrC, because the PF version is honestly worse than straight rogue.
3) I'm using oslecamo's proposed 'associated class levels' rule, or all class levels are treated as non-associated, as this is intended as a 'elite' monster.
4) There's two entries under HP, as PF has a latent 'CHA to HP' rule for all undead, and I may not want to add Unholy Toughness on top of this.
Anyways, here's my monster, who clock in at an Elite CR 9
