Hey folks,

I'm creating a new character for my friend's campagin and I was thinking something along the lines of an Arcane caster that focuses on creating magical items, summoning things, or ideally both.

Please don't suggest Artificer, I can't use it. Any other ideas for progressions (starting at 5th), Prc's or variants please let me know.

Thanks!

There's a feat in the PgtF that can be applied to one item creation feat to reduce the base cost by a certain percentage.

A variant conjurer (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/variant/classes/specialistWizardVariants.htm#conjurerVariants) would help with the summoning part. Particularly the spontaneous summoning option, you could summon any time you have a spell (of 1st level or higher) left so you don't need to dedicate spell slots to summoning.

Wizard bonus feats can be item creation feats, if you want a ton of them straight wizard could help out.

Look at this WotC article (http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/we/20060526a) for ways to reduce your personal XP drain from crafting magic items left and right.

The Craft Points (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/variant/buildingCharacters/craftPoints.htm) variant could speed item creation along, but that needs to be put in place at a campaign level so you might be out of luck with this one.

I'd make a straight Warlock. Deceive Item / Imbue Item. Summon Swarm over and over ... Have fun.
