Out of character (OOC)
Hello all, it's a pleasure to meet you. I'll be playing Sorin, a thief and wannabe wizard. I'm currently thinking of either an Eldritch Scoundrel or a magus, leaning towards the rogue for it's skill capacity. What do you all think?
Marcia, as for traits, it does depend quite a bit on what precisely you want your character to be doing, what skills you'd like to pick up to represent her backstory, and so forth. If you want raw mechanical advice though, it's hard to say no to the Magical Knack trait. It raises your effective Caster Level to ranger level-1 as opposed to -3, which adds a fair bit of duration to your spells. It won't kick in for you until level four, but it's very good for any half caster.
