Okay, to start this off, I haven't got a very good idea on this yet but hopefully this will work out somehow.
The Clonemaster is a powerful character who has trained to use magical power to create a goodly number of clones (I apologize in advance if some of this doesn't match 3.5 edition rules, I only have 3rd ed. PHB and DMG right now)
Requirements:
Spellcasting: Able to cast 5th level arcane spells
Able to cast Mirror Image
Good Save: Will, Base Attack Bonus: 1/2 (poor) Spellcasting increases as base class every 4 levels
The hardest is making him balanced, his clones useful, and still being able to summon a fair number of them...
Cloning: once per day per three levels, the clonemaster can summon a number of 1st level clones equal to 1 + 1 per 2 levels after 1st
Greater Clones: Each of your clones gains 1 level for every 2 of yours
All clones are exactly the same as the others, and have the summoners stats, race appearance and base class, however, their spells, skills and feats can be chosen differently if desired
Equipment: At first level, the clones wear normal travelers clothes and carry a basic quarterstaff as described in the Players Handbook, along with a spell component pouch with appropriate materials for their known spells.
At second level they gain Bracers of Armor +1 and a Quarterstaff +1; the bonus on the items increases to +2 at 4th level, +3 at 7th level and +4 at 10th level.
At 5th level they gain a Ring of Wizardry I, which becomes a Ring of Wizardry II at 10th level
Does it look balanced to you? Didn't think so. Advice would be appreciated, flaming not so, and please don't say "give up, it's useless" or anything similar, simply put, D&D is to have fun, and being able to summon up a bunch of look-a-likes whenever you want would be pretty cool I think.:smallbiggrin:
