Deep in the mountains lies a secluded city of Avariel (winged elves). The select group of guardians known as "Faenya's Wardens" serve to protect the surrounding countryside, keeping it free of dangerous creatures, looking for signs of undesired travelers, and always searching for evidence of their most hated adversaries; dragons.

Build Comments ------------------------ - PRC Oddity: At character level 21, Perfect 2-Wpn Fighting was available? I was barely into Tempest levels.
- Strong, flexible build, melee-wise.
- A little weak on Will saves, not quite as many skill points as I would have liked. Could use some spells too, but I guess you cant have everything.
- I gave 2 points to Wisdom thinking there might be some spells with Ultimate Ranger, but it turns out there arent any. So this build can probably be optimized some more (2 to Con, or Str, maybe). _________________ Normal kids play rock-paper-scissors. Shifter kids play IronGolem-RustMonster-MindFlayer. . .
