A couple days ago, my group met to begin our next big campaign. Unfortunately, life found a way to foil our good intentions. We ended up getting about half-way through character creation and of the four other players, there are going to be a Cleric, a Druid, a Beguiler and a Crusader. They all rolled very well on their characters (their average was 36 point-buy) and they all are competent as far as optimization is concerned.
I, on the other hand, was able to roll what comes out to 7 point buy with an 11 as my highest ability score. The DM offered a reroll, which I dramatically turned down (the women swooned, the children cheered and the men balked at the sight of such a daring act). My idea is to disregard ability rolls by going with Wild Shape Ranger (well, actually a Barbarian with an obscene number of variants, but for all our purposes, WS Ranger)/Master of Many Forms/Something else.
Needless background aside:
I thought I'd use Warshaper to fill the extra levels, but it doesn't actually advance the HD of Wild Shape forms. I was wondering what classes do.
Off my head I can think of Arcane Heirophant, Nature's Warrior, Daggerspell Shaper (which on second glance, doesn't actually advance Wild Shape beyond durations... maybe it was released before the HD limits?) and that's really about it.
So what other options are there?
