Skeletal Champion Cyclops Overwhelming Soul Void Kineticist

[Wasum]

Hello!

I'm trying to build a cyclops skeleton with the kineticist class (my target is CR 14). As he's an undead I'd have to pick the Overwhelming Soul archetype - which fits pretty good if you ask me and I guess void would be the apropriate element.

But now I'm a little stuck. I'm completely inexperienced when it comes to the kineticist and I need to consider archetype, template, base creature and the class itself including good picks of infusions.

Maybe someone could help me so I get a correct statblock for a somewhat powerful monster. If I made him more of a casterish kineticist I could buy off some CR of the base Cyclops, right? Also I though about he Elemental Annihilator Archetype but I'm not sure whether it's worth it. I'd really apreciate your help!

Thanks in advance,
Wasum

PS: "Creatures with class levels receive +4, +4, +2, +2, +0, and –2 adjustments to their ability scores" - this is the only thing I can do to improve the cyclops rather poor dex and cha values, right?

I found two more archetypes that might be an option:

Blighted Defiler (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/occult-adventures/occult-classes/kineticist/archetypes/paizo-llc-kineticist-archetypes/blighted-defiler-kineticist-archetype/)
and
Psychokineticist (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/occult-adventures/occult-classes/kineticist/archetypes/paizo-llc-kineticist-archetypes/psychokineticist-kineticist-archetype/)

But I‘m not sure on which one to pick.

I‘d love to hear some ideas :)

[khadgar567]

whats this guys role?

[Wasum]

He‘s one of four deacons of my cyclops lich villain, reigning his part of a rising undead imperium. Also he‘s leading a huge skeleton army but that‘s something he usually leaves to his generals. That‘s all I got so far.

He‘s meant as Bossfight for my PCs but he will have mooks supporting him there.

Why such a horrible class?

[Wasum]

Do you have an idea what else I could make of the eye beaming skeleton cylops?

[Andor13]

Almost anything? The Kineticist class sucks HARD.
An eyebeam is a special effect, the base ability is what matters. You can make it an item, custom spell, PrC ability, whatever.

If you want it to be class related then Sorcerer seems obvious, load up on beam spells and use still spell to blast them out his eye-hole.

Or if you use Dream Scarred Press,
Psion
Aegis
Mystic
Soul Knife (Soul Bolt)

Thank you very much - somehow I was stuck to the kineticist!

I now made him Negative Energy Charged Skeleton Champion Cyclops Sorcerer 10

This gives him a strong ray attack (Su) and a great selection of spells. I really should have checkt for templates that give ray attacks earlier...
