Hey guys, I am a long time lurker, but might start posting a little more regularly. Anyway, I am interested in playing a changling beguiler in an upcoming campaign. We are starting at level 10 so I am planning to go beguiler 5/mindbender 1/beguiler4. I'm not really that interested in advice on the mechanical aspect of the beguiler, (though if you have any, feel free to share them) but I was wondering if anyone had played one and had any suggestions on roleplaying them. I don't really have any information on the campaign (homebrewed) yet so I can't really help you on that.
Here are some ideas I was thinking about.
I was thinking of him as a part-time con man, who has a semi Robin Hood complex, namely taking from the rich and giving to the poorer, namely himself. The character isn't evil so much, but more neutral, convincing himself that he is teaching his victims a valuable lesson for a small (or not so small) fee. He has never had any real lasting relationships, even on a professional basis which will make it interesting when he meets up with the rest of the adventuring party.
Anyway, do any of you have some ideas? Your input is much appreciated.
