The horror of Yukon

These are the classes that have to be hunted for. The archivist and dread necromancer from heroes of horror, the dragonfire adept from dragon magic, and the factotum from dungeonscape


FACTOTUM
All of the factotum is versatility, so I figure lots of mutlipowers and VPPs were the best bet The charges represent the "inspiration pts".

Obviously, didn't do any spells with this one. I think this class would be pretty fun as is though, with this "tapping into necrotic magic" concept rather than being a lord of undead. Maybe use necrotic magic to battle evil demons. Who knows.

SOOO what's next? Player's handbook 2 classes and classes from minis handbook.

Also, you may be asking (why not do PH FIRST). For two-fold reason. There are so many classes, doing it this way breaks it up easier. Two, I plan on doing PH and classes from pathfinder in parallel.
