epic level wizard w/ those cool epic spells (you need to constantly place skill points in spellcraft to get these). Wizard instead of Sorcerer for the monsterous spell diversity, the additional feats, and as you go epic you will match-up spells per day with the Sorcerer.

Additionally save up 15 skill points by level 22 and take one level at character level 22 as a rogue - for placing points in other skills but also for placing 15 points in "use magic device". This then will allow you to cast cleric and Druid scrolls at any level.

Race: Gnome

Class Wizard (General spell caster, NOT one of the specialized casters.)

Attributes: 18 int., 14 dex., 10 in everything else. ALWAYS incresing int. (to overcome spell resistance, gain more spells to cast per day.. and gain extra skill points.)

Skills - just Concentration and Spellcraft until level 22 (at which point you should have 100 points to spend on various rogue skills - in particular 15 in use magic device, but also in hide and move silently).

Feats level 1: Spell penetration
3: Greater Spell penetration
Bonus 5: Evocation Spell focus
6: Evocation Greater Spell focus
9: Necromancy Spell focus
Bonus 10: Necromancy Greater Spell focus
12: usually Toughness
15: usually Improved Initiative
Bonus 15: usually combat casting
18: usually Evocation arcane defense
21: epic spell Dragon Knight
24: epic spell Epic Mage Armor
Bonus 24: epic spell focus Evocation
27: epic spell Greater Ruin
Bonus 27: Epic Spell Penetration
30: epic spell Hellball
Bonus 30: epic spell focus Necromancy
33: epic spell Warding
Bonus 33: epic spell Mummy Dust

If your willing to loose a couple of feats over a 40 level character then you could create something more complex with the addition of a Pale Master class - but NEVER select the class during a "feat level" (as identified above). (The starting period would be at character level 23 for the first Pale Master level).
