Shortest prestige class

[Sergio]

Am I wrong thinking that the shortest (when it comes to levels) prestige class is fist of the forest? (just three levels to complete it...)

Are there other prestige class as short as the fist of the forest?

Is there a table with all of them somewhere?

[Ruethgar]

The Racial Paragon classes are technically PrC, Hellfire Warlock and that one from BoEF(Metaphisical Master?) are also both 3 lvls long.

[Esprit15]

I believe Hellfire Warlock is also three levels long.

Metaphysical Spellshaper. Also Racial Paragon Classes are Racial Paragon Classes, not prestige classes. Tehy are their own separate thing.

Ruathar, Stoneblessed and Wayfarer Guide are all three levels long.

Though taking a level in it makes you lose your 6th level feat.

That's okay, you can recover feats by taking all two levels of the Fighter PrC.

Or 6 levels of the Dungeoncrasher PrC.

[Telonius]

Sword of Righteousness and Wonderworker from BoED are also 3 levels long.

[Inevitability]

Or 6 levels of the Dungeoncrasher PrC.

Don't forget the 9-level Zhentarim Soldier PrC!

[DrMotives]

Warbeast template is basically a 1-level PrC with a requirement of "type: animal or vermin".

[Hish]

Exotic Weapon Master and Hulking Hurler from Complete Warrior are 3 levels long.
