Re: OOC:
Assuming council shadow ninjas do exist.
ranger for favored enemy humanoid, or other speciality.
ranger for tracking, endurance.
ranger for favored terrain desert or city.
ninja/rogue for sneak attack, skills.
ranger or ninja or rogue
Looking towards Ranger 3, ninja/rogue 5.
Good at information gathering, assassination, tracking, and moving in vities, between cities, and tracking down targets in the desert.
12 str, 14 Dex, 8 Con, 14 Int, 12 Wis, 10 Cha
Atheletics. Ranger 1 (7)
Acrobatics. Rogue 1 (8)
Finesse. Rogue 2 (10)
Perception. Rogue 3 (9) favored terrain +2
Stealth. Int bonus(both), skill focus. (14) favored terrain +2
Influence. Rogue 4 (8)
Survival. Ranger 3 (7) favored terrain +2
knowledge: Society Rogue 1 (7)
Rogue (4 + 1/2 Int): Acrobatics, Finesse, Influence, Perception, Society, Stealth.
Ranger (3 + 1/2 Int): Athletics, Nature, Perception, Stealth, Survival.
A standard Shadow would be Ranger/Rogue, with growth the region they focus on.
boots that grant a bonus terrain toward the alternate terrain would be useful.
Rogue Archetypes: Scout and Knife master can be used independant or together, Scout allows more sneak attack choices, and knife master specializes the rogue's weapon choice.
Or as a plot unrelated npc generation, just base class levels, no paths.
16 hide is getting ridiculous, like Irfan skill checks. with desert colored cloths, could be a litteral ghost to bandits. sneak attacking for charging or tumbling, sniping with daggers from 20 ft away.
