There are... still a lot of things left to fill in(haven't even decided on their gender, let alone their name or some build decisions), but I think I have the general idea.
Build: Ninja 5/Fighter 4/Avenging Executioner 5/Ghost-faced Killer 10(yes, epic character, I know)
Stats(after items, HD bonuses, and +5 inherent item to Strength and Wisdom): 26/20/20/18/27/21
Feats: Able Learner, Darkstalker, Power Attack, Improved Initiative, Weapon Focus(greatsword), Improved Critical(greatsword), Melee Weapon Mastery(slashing), Reckless Offense, Martial Stalker, Imperious Command, (3 left)
Bonus Vile feats(from serving an Elder Evil; long story): Evil's Blessing, Chosen of Evil, Vile Martial Strike(greatsword), Insane Defiance, Harvester of Souls
Items(using PC WBL and lots left undecided yet): greatsword(bonus and enhancements undecided yet), Belt of Magnificence +6, Bracers of Armor +8, Ring of Protection from Negative Energy, Boots of Speed, Vest(or Cloak; depends on remaining slots and other stuff) of Resistance +5, Amulet of Natural Armor, Portable Hole
Yeah, lots left to fill in, especially in the items department, but I want to consider both power and aesthetics(Cowl of Warding and Ghost Shroud both have hoods, even if they aren't mutually exclusive at all).
...so, any help guys? Remember, optimization is important, and thematics are also important, but thinking "how would this NPC fight normally, both against PCs and other enemies" is important - slaughtering a bunch of guards is going to work quite differently from a decently optimized party, and I'm not just talking about things like scry-and-die tactics.
