Pyrrha Nikos?

[PraxisVetli]

So, my group has an upcoming Greek themed campaign, and I want to be Pyrrha. For those who dont know,

Pyrrha's pretty great.
I don't need the rifle, but the rest I want.

Things to know
We play 3.5, but allow PoW. We also allow choosing your disciplines.
All books are go.
This is a mild campaign, that said, I can easily just tone it down.

Things I need.
That shield is almost used more than the spear. I need to be able to block, swing, and throw that thing as fluid as possible.
I need to be able to go from longspear to sword and everything in between. A Morphing weapon can handle that though.
Pyrrha's FAST. Lots of attacks.

Okay, so.
Base class, I'm thinking Swordsage. Iron Tortoise, Piercing Lance, Tiger Claw, and I'm not sure what else.
I can pick up a Returning Shield (what kind of shield does that qualify as?), so that takes care of that.
Can I TWF with a Shield? That's the easiest way to represent how fast she is. I see a lot of Capn America threads suggest Agile Shield Fighter, but I'm going heavy Dex, so isn't TWF better?

Feats
Human: TWF
1. Piercing Lance Style
Treats spears as light weapons
3.
6.
9. Improved TWF
12.
15.
18.

I'm really unsure how to go about feats.
I've never done a S&B build, what does it need?

I come to you Playgrounders, hoping someone knows more than I!

You don't want Swordsage. You want Warder. Trust me on this. Warders get full base attack bonus (more attacks=more speed) and are married to their shields like nobody else. How much PoW are you allowing? Since you've got Piercing Lance Style, I assume the play test documents are in play? I don't know how you're mixing your PF and 3.5 but depending how its done you can get the whole thing out of just PF stuff.

Disciplines- Iron Tortoise (shields are fun), Thrashing Dragon (TWFing is fun), Primal Fury (Charging is Fun), Piercing Lance (Spears and Horses are Fun)

Feats
Human: TWF
Warder BF 1. Combat Reflexes (Int keyed)
1. Piercing Lance Style- Treats spears as light weapons
3. Improved Shield Bash
Warder BF 3. Weapon Finesse
6. Deadly Agility
Warder BF 8. Shield Slam (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/feats/combat-feats/shield-slam-combat---final)
9. Improved TWF
12. Shield Master (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/feats/combat-feats/shield-master-combat---final)
Warder BF 13. Greater TWF
15. Lunge (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/feats/combat-feats/lunge-combat---final)
18. Weapon Group Adaptation (Shields)
Warder BF 18. Tactical Rush

You're DEX/INT focused which fits Pyrrha's tactical insight and agility, you can TWF with both spear and shield at no penalty (shield master) and you've got great mobility/reach thanks to Lunge, Tactical Rush, and Warder's Defensive Focus ability. Grab yourself a mithral breastplate and be well armored with high dex and Stalwart.

What elric said. but as far as items go... blink shirt (custom if possible for more uses) grab a quickdraw throwing shield, pickup quickdraw feat, and then the blinkback belt. not sure if morphing is what you want it will eat up move actions. so I would stick with lunge and just call it a spear when you do that. that move where she jumps in the air and kicks the crap out of them (i think there were several) I haven't studied PoW much but it sounds like leaping dragon from ToB.
