I'd do 1d6 every four levels, personally, but that's just 'cause I hate rolling d3's. Good idea otherwise, though. I'd also like to see some flavor behind this guy-like what makes him significantly different from an expert/rouge, which would give you about the same thing anyways.

Just one thing:

Skill Points at 1st Level
(6 + Int modifier) ×6.

Am I missing something or are there classes that get six times the normal skill points at first level? Cause otherwise that's a 1-level dip class for all skill addicts out there. Short class skill list be damned.
