Man, was I ever stupid. Maybe if I had read this thread I would have made a far more successful version of Samurai Jack for Ziroc's online module. I never knew I needed an 13+ Intelligence score in order to get Expertise (which then allows you to acquire Whirlwind Attack). I was trying to make the character follow the television show's lead character (being Jack himself), but as you cannot set all your scores to 15 or 16 at the beginning, I made a reasonable guess while trying to keep his initial combat-related statistics high.

Bad move.

Now, if anyone could tell me how best to do a samurai character using regular NWN, it would be greatly appreciated. As well, if anyone else follows that show at all, what would be the best was to do the Kilted Scotsman who is quite possibly the only other character in the program to have similar fighting ability to Jack? Would he be a fighter/weaponmaster as well? Should their be (in either build) Champion Of Torm? Would you think that since I don't have an official samurai base class (as you can get if you use the PRC Consortium hakpack) I should throw in some levels of Paladin for Jack (as he is always out there smiting evil)? Ideas would be greatly appreciated.
