Well basically Im Looking for Two-Bladed Weapon Based Character That had Sneak attacks or Either Death Attacks and Could Cast True Strike and could also buff himself.. and perphaps be able to sneak but thats not a big deal... I Love How Two-Bladed Weapons Do that Quick fast hard hitting Damage leaving your Enemy Like what just happened lol!
You can get more attacks per round with a Monk, a dual-wielder Fighter would make up to 6 while a single-wielding Monk can make up to 7, dual-wielding monk makes 9, add Haste and you get 10, which is the max APR.
I think you're asking a bit too much though, you can't have a Weapon Master / Rogue / Cleric sneaker/buffer/dual-wielder and rock almighty, no, you will lack both feats and stats with such build, an intensive lack of feats.
I would recommend you to either drop sneak or drop buffs. If you drop sneak you can take maybe Fighter to grab feats and it will definitely work. If you drop the buffing part you can still use some scrolls and stuff thanks to Rogue's UMD, you will also need some extra feats here, Fighter is the best for that IMO.
If you were interested on Monk max APR the easiest choice would be to drop Weapon Master. _________________ "My name is Thaxll'ssyllia, but you simians may refer to me merely as "Sir", if you prefer a less... syllable intensive workout."

Maybe Perphaps say A Blackguard or Assasin.. But im not talking about Dual-Wielding i was talking about the TWo-Bladed Sword... Like Its Similiar the Double Axe...
So Say I Dropped Sneaking and I Just wanted to be buffed and wanted True Strike.. But im Using a Two-blAded Sword But after I KD someone i want that Sneak/Death Attack Damage as Well to Add to0 the Hits...
Any Suggestions?

Sorry but that was stupid, read what you write, using a two-bladed sword means dual-wielding, it works automatically as if you had two swords equipped, so you are dual-wielding which means you need lots of feats, let me explain that thoroughly:
Without any two-weapon Fighting feats you get an AB penalty of -6/-10 (mainhand/offhand). You need Ambidexterity and Two Weapon Fighting to reduce it to -4/-4, but since using a double weapon gives you advantage, when you use a two-bladed sword you actually get -4/-8 without feats and -2/-2 if you take the feats. Besides that Improved Two Weapon Fighting adds a second attack per round on your ofhand at -5 AB (a must take for any dual-wielder, pre-requirements are Ambidexterity and Two Weapon Fighting).
That maks it 3 feats and minimum 15 DEX as pre-requirement for Ambidexterity and add that the 5 feat requirement to be a Weapon Master, you just won't do without Fighter or Champion of Torm to pick extra feats. Know that taking a two-bladed sword without any dual-wielding feats is probably the worse weapon scenario you can pick.
If you only want True Strike then you don't really "buff up", just pick a scroll of True Strike and use it with UMD (Rogue). Fighter / Weapon Master / Rogue is a good build, try the build searcher. _________________ "My name is Thaxll'ssyllia, but you simians may refer to me merely as "Sir", if you prefer a less... syllable intensive workout."

Two bladed weapons are considered large weapons, so they cannot be used with weapon finesse in a dex build. That leaves you with a str build. Normally you will need dex 15 to get ambidexterity. Spending that much on dex in a str build is expensive. and you get little in return. There is one exception, and that is taking dual wield as a ranger. Then you get ambidexterity as part of the dual-wield package with no dex requirements. The down side is that you have to wear light armor, or dual wield wont work. The obvious workaround is to use dex items so you can reach dex 18 for a studded, dex 22 for a leather or dex 26 for a padded armor. Any build can reach dex 18 with items. You will need a base dex of at least 10 to be able to reach dex 22 with items, and a base dex of 14 to be able to reach dex 26 with items.
Any build with a UMD class (rogue, bard, assassin) can self buff with scrolls. A build with between 8 and 15 cleric lvls (econo cleric) will be a great self buffer. Scrolls of true strike grant a great AB bonus, but are very short lived (9 sec) meaning you spend much of your precious fighting time reading scrolls.
A str build will have weaker stealth skills than a dedicated dex build, but can manage quite well in several environments.
Going fighter in full plate is probably the easiest way to build a double weapon wielder. Just remember to take TWF, Ambidexterity and ITWF. Epic weapon specialization adds considerably to the damage.
Adding a tumble class will compensate to some degree for not being able to use a shield. (rogue or assassin is great here for both UMD and tumble)
A ranger build with enough ranger lvls to get bane of enemies can also punch quite well. In a ranger build (light armor) I would definitely add a class that gives uncanny dodge (shadowdancer, rogue, assassin, barbarian).
My favourite here is the ranger/shadowdancer and the ranger/assassin types of builds. _________________ I generally avoid temptation, unless I can't resist it...
Well, if you want to trade sneak for dev crit, I have this build:

The nice thing about two-bladed swords is the double bang on buffs etc., so yeah, it makes total sense if willing to go arcanist as opposed to a sneaker to build w. a wiz, sorc., cleric and/or paladin (what, no one recommends paladin anymore? 25 Ranger/15 Paladin: Click Here
