I'm going to get straight to the point- I want to abuse the Keep Awake ability of the Oppressor (from Dragon #313) Prestige Class. Basically, what it does is let you, when you would normally kill or knock out someone via damage, leave them alive at 0 hp instead. This can be done an unlimited number of times per day. I want to use this to take advantage of effects that require their target to be dying.
So far, I have:
Consumptive Field and its Greater version (they're way too broken for my purposes, but I'd figure that I'd mention them for completeness's sake)
Death Knell
The Soulreaper Necromancer ACF (also from Dragon #313, it seems to be similar to a Chameleon/mini-Illithid Savant hybrid)
That Spelltouched feat that lets you absorb temporary hp from dying foes
Additions would be appreciated
The Thief of Life, which lets me finish off enemies after I've nearly completely drained them for some bonuses
I also would like to have a way to deal an extra point of damage so that my foes are kicked into "dying" range. So far, I only have Bleed effects. Any suggestions?
