he's got 14d6 sneak attack, can open just about any lock, naked hide and move silently of 54, naked ac 29 and he can use any scrolls or magic items. He's only got 265 hit points at level 40, but he's designed never to get hit, with both self concealment 3 giving a permanent 30% miss chance, and epic dodge making the first attack of the round automatically miss. He does 14d6 sneak attack damage, does 2 points of strength damage per sneak attack, and has a reflex save of 33 for defensive roll, and improved evasion.
his initiative is +15, so even without hiding in plain sight he's virtually guaranteed to get the drop on most opponents, to deliver the first sneak attack or hide in plain sight and guarantee that he gets one.
