Hey Giants!
I was kicking around the idea (metaphorically) of a bloodmarked skinwalker (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/races/other-races/more-races/standard-races-1-10-rp/skinwalkers-10-rp) (werebat-kin) alchemist (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/classes/base-classes/alchemist) with the *takes deep breath* chirurgeon (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/classes/base-classes/alchemist/archetypes/paizo-alchemist-archetypes/chirurgeon/), vivisectionist (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/classes/base-classes/alchemist/archetypes/paizo-alchemist-archetypes/vivisectionist/), and wasteland blighter (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/classes/base-classes/alchemist/archetypes/paizo-alchemist-archetypes/wasteland-blighter/) archetypes. Essentially, I wanted to create a cold and calculating scientist who disguises her dark experimentation and blood-lust with the guise of an anxious (https://www.d20pfsrd.com/traits/drawbacks/anxious/) but benevolent healer; lawful evil healer for the win!
Anywho, I was looking at taking Bat Shape (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/feats/general-feats/bat-shape) early (maybe Dire Bat Shape (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/feats/general-feats/dire-bat-shape) later on) but the vivisectionist's sneak attack ability in bat form has a lot of potential for hitting lone targets unaware. I was wondering what traits, feats, or other goodies I could take in order to help her be the best stealthy nocturnal killer she can be? Alternatively, I would love some clarification as to whether Bat Shape allows you to transform into a diminutive animal (as a normal bat) or a tiny animal (as beast shape II (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/magic/all-spells/b/beast-shape)).
Lastly, just thinking of this as I am typing, I would love to see how she could deal nonlethal sneak attack damage with her bite to knock targets out. This would allow her to take on dire bat form and carry her targets away, stealthfully under the cover of night, to her lab for further... examination.
As always, any help is appreciated.
