Vampire Crusader

[Blackhawk748]

Yup, im now finally gonna suck it up and design a Crusader, the main goal here is to make an extremely durable and killtastic "vampire" warrior. Yes i am aware that this is generally a terrible idea and i may die horribly, but hey i should have fun before i kick it. So heres the, very basic, build; Spellstiched Half Vampire Necropolitan Gray Elf Crusader 5/ Horned Harbinger 10/Crusader 5. He will be wielding a Greatsword and be focusing his SLAs on creating undead and then buffing said undead, so Kelgores Grave Mist, Animate Dead, things like that. I will take Martial Study several times so i can learn Wall of Blades, Iron Heart Surge, and Mithral Tornado. Other than that im not sure what to do for feats, id like to take Faerie Mysterys Initiate, but that looks like it needs a second person so i can get Int to HP, so i need to solve the HP problem.

How open are you to homebrew? When someone wants to play a vampire, I generally recommend this (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showsinglepost.php?p=8056982&postcount=173). Unlike the MM vampire template, it's actually balanced for PCs and doesn't hurt your durability too much.

Im not opposed to them but if i was gonna use homebrew id use this, http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?290290-3-5-Vampire-lite But as for right now im gonna try to make this without homebrew so as to make it a bit more universally acceptable.

Also im seriously confused as to why Faerie Mystery Initiate Gray Elf Wizards are so common, since you need someone else to have the feat to gain the Int to HP. I mean i would love that as i generally have an int of 14 on most characters and HP is HP.
