Recently in my escapades in a villains campaign my poor Illithid was vanquished by a fowl group of heroes who slew him without hesitation after breaking past his lairs maniacal defenses, so now I must create a new villain. And after some time spent in thought, I was wondering of Caster from Fate Zero, a wonderful character I'd like to try out. Anyway, we are now level 23 as characters and I was wondering if anyone had an idea on how to make Caster based on classes and particular feat selections, our DM allows pathfinder and 3.5 materials.

Hm... *looks it up*

Sounds like a Summoner or Warlock.

Summoner is a summoner.

Warlock (Complete Arcane) has the Shadowmaster Epic Feat (http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/ei/20061027a) that gives Shades (80% real spell replication) at-will. This can let you summon shadowy fakes of monsters. Using PF material, Warlock innately qualifies for spellcasting second level spells, allowing easy access to the Anima Mage PrC (Tome of Magic). This would let you be a Binder without being a binder. Combine with Legacy Champion (Weapons of Legacy) to progress the Anima Mage, you can grab Zceryll (http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/frcc/20070718) to get a summoning spell every 5 rounds for free. Make your legacy item one of those spell book thingies he has.

Something like Warlock1/AnimaMage10/LegacyChamp10, with 2 levels in a custom Epic Anima Mage for the epic bonus feats.
