Fiend-Blooded Beguiler

[WeaselGuy]

So, as expounded upon in this thread (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?399691-half-fiend-template-questions), I decided to make a Beguiler/Fiend-Blooded, for giggles. And because I get bored easily. And have little to do on a Friday night in Kuwait.

Anyways, I made this character, but need some help picking his last 2 feats.

So yeah. I don't gain anything from Fiendish Companion. And I need feats for levels 15 and 18. I took Darkstalker at 12 because I retain somewhat decent Hide skills throughout, plus I'll be starting with the Continuous Collar of Umbral Metamorphasis, giving me the Dark Template.
I have, after racial modifiers, and before class ability boosts, 14 Str, 18 Dex, 18 Con, 18 Int, 12 Wis and 11 Cha. All increases from level going to Int.

More interesting to me than feats, is what spells (from any class, ever) you plan to add to your spells known from Fiend-Blooded (any spell having the fire descriptor or any spell from the schools of enchantment, illusion, or necromancy.) Consumptive Field jumps to mind.

[WeaselGuy]

I haven't really decided yet, and am open to suggestions. Consumptive Field... isn't that the spell that Chicken Infested Commoner uses to take out a Tarrasque?

[Thurbane]

It's a pretty solid PrC, even if you lose out on some Beguiler features and a lot of skill points.

Don't forget - the spells don't even need to be off the Sorc/Wizard list, so that should open up a lot of possibilities.

I think it needs the greater version to work properly.

It gives you an untyped strength bonus that stacks with itself whenever a creature dies in the area of effect. The greater version actually kills anything with few enough hitpoints.

Every time the commoner pulls a chicken from their spell component pouch (as a free action), it dies and they get +2 strength. They do this 1,000,000 times, giving them 2 million strength, and punch a hole in the tarrasque.

Needless to say, using this with chickens, anthills, bags of rats or crowds of peasants may not go down well with your DM...

I am partial to Obtain Familiar (and possibly Improved Familiar) on Beguilers. With their shared skill ranks, they can get more use out of a familiar than most casters. Especially if you put ranks in UMD and give your familiar some wands for some real action economy abuse. Plus, as a Fiend-Blooded, you're further incentivized to take one, since it gets the fiendish template for free.
