+2 Strength (sneks are basically just one big long muscle)
+2 to Hide, Move Silently, Listen, Spot, Balance, and Climb (basic snek stuff)
-4 to Bluff, Diplomacy, Gather Information, Handle Animal, and Perform against anyone who isn't at least at a Helpful disposition (downside to being a snek, you scare almost everyone upon first contact and it makes it difficult to get creatures to do what you want them to do)

I played a Yuan Ti Tainted One Chaos Monk / Shiba Protector / Ur Priest / Sacred Fist at ECL ~14-19, iirc. I used my psionics to polymorph into a dire snake, and then I'd use Righteous Might and Giant Size to buff my size mod. Took Gape Of The Serpent and Rending Constriction to swallow enemies after becoming Colossal+.
It was probably the strongest Monk character I ever played.
>>182205
What's your size though? Do you get Improved Grab? Construct? Venom? Natural Armor? I figured you were using something like a greensnake naga or constrictor naga as your base.

Oh yeah, lamias also get Constrict. I had an idea for a "Tail Whip" natural attack which would work like a whip weapon, but I'm still not sure what GM pone thinks of it. Improved Grapple would make sense as a racial bonus since she's a constrictor. No venom or natural armor, though. There's been debates about her size. I'd prefer if she was medium sized so she can still be stealthy.

For Lacy:
Looking at a Rogue 3, Monk 1, Assassin 2 layout. Similar feats to Brie; Dagger Focus, Advanced Stabby Stab, and Improved. So with her movement action she can feint (and remove dex bonus) allowing her to sneak attack from reach, or trip, or disarm.
Btw, I forgot monk gives weapon finesse for monk weapons, so gonna reassign that one for Brie.

Could use the Oriental Adventures Sinomen nagas as a base.

Or use anthropomorphic legendary snake as your base, and then add a replacement tail graft to get back the improved grab and constrict attacks. It would be around +2 LA, which would be about the same as any creatures that flies at-will.
Could also apply some grafts/mutations. Yuan Ti and Naga's are all about fleshwarping.

You need 5 levels to qualify for assassin.

>monk gives weapon finesse for monk weapons
It only does that in 5e.
Also, weapon Finesse costs a feat in 3.5e.
There's a monk variant that gives weapon Finesse in place of a monk bonus feat though.
>>182216
This is PHB material, m8. It's clear in the SRD.
I'm letting you know now, so you won't have to change it later.

No, monk weapons allow the dex bonus instead of strength on attack bonuses, ergo finesse.
Reiterating my "back off my junk".
Im asking to take assassin at a slightly lower skill point than expressly written, to do with character bg. Im teyibg to also post more on the board and not be all up in GM's shit. If youre unwilling to honor that, fine.

>No, monk weapons allow the dex bonus instead of strength on attack bonuses, ergo finesse
No, you are mistaken. I'm looking at the Monk class in the PHB right now. It doesn't do that. Nowhere in the class description does it say that it does that.
You are confusing it with 5e again.
>Im asking to take assassin at a slightly lower skill point than expressly written, to do with character bg
If GM wants to let you ignore prerequisites, that's his call.
There's actually a variant rule for that in the SRD:

You're right, weapon finesse is not implicitly granted. Thank you for your studious adherence to the core rules.

Wasn't you who just last week threw a fit about what you perceived to be my incorrect reading Concentration rules (Which turned out to be the correct reading)?
You have been complaining about my character build and calling it "broken" for months now. This is my first time mentioning anything about yours.
I really don't care what your character does. I only spoke up because you mentioned something that was patently false.

Rosey Ring appears as a youthful mare with soft and elegant features. Her coat is a pristine snow white, and exceptionally fluffy. Her mane is a sanguine red-pink, and is soft, fine and silky, almost glowing with its vibrant. Her mane is exceptionally long, and usually done up in a braid or a war bun. Her body is slender and dainty, with generous feminine endowments. She has a calm and professional demeanor, and she comes off as mature, despite her apparent youth. When she moves, she seems to glide over the ground, with grace that seems almost supernatural. The spring in her step betrays a deceptively strong body. She trots with a regal confidence, puffing her fluffy chest out and holding her head high, and making eye contact with anyone within eyesight. Her elegant and courtly demeanor betrays an aura of absolute menace, a predatory supernatural hunger conveyed in her hypnotic gaze. She always seems alert and engaged, her ears swiveling like tiny satellite dishes. Overall, she is strikingly beautiful. She seems to radiate youth and vitality, but something about her supernatural appearance is... Unsettling. She seems almost more like an exquisite painting of a mare than a living thing, uncanny in her supernatural beauty.
Rosey Ring's eyes are like pools of gold, with hypnotic radial concentric rings. They glow with authority and give off a mesmerizing aura that demands submission. Staring into them too long gives feelings of unease and terror, but their commanding presence makes it difficult for any unfortunate souls who've caught her attention to look away.
Posey's Cutie Mark is a dark sun surrounded by a red flare. It also resemble a buboe from the black plague. It fills out her soft and rotund flank very well. The Dark Sun above a white sky is Posey's mark of destiny.
When dressed for war, Rosey Ring looks like something from another era. She wears archaic chain shirt barding, adorned with the bones and teeth of various monsters. Throwing-needles hold her hair into a tactical war bun, and she affixes a blade to the end of her braid. An elegant silver longsword lays at her flank, alongside a longbow, a coiled whip, and quiver. She brandishes an archaic halberd that crackles with electricity. Armored racers are fastened to her forehooves, dastana made from the shackles she once wore as a slave. It's clear from her fashion that she is a warrior from a bygone age.

One of the original ideas for Posey was that she was a failed clone of Rosa, but I cut that idea because it didn't make sense in lore under scrutiny.

Nightstalker is a class I always wanted to try.

Multiclass Rogue/Cleric is probably stronger though. Might do that instead.
