Hey everyone! So I was tooling around on the boards last night and I got a character concept that I think would be really fun, and I couldn't find any characters concepts like this, so I made an account and here we go.
Here's the scene that came to my mind. Lightning McQuick is hanging out in a bar or something and starts to make fun of a big fighter type character. Lighting insults the fighter's mother or grandmother or mother's tuna salad or something along those lines. The fighter then proceeds to draw his weapon of choice, only to realize that Lighting McQuick isn't in the same time zone anymore.
What I want to make is a character who has an optimized land speed. The easiest way to increase speed that I can think of is, obviously, to take a whole bunch of monk, or monk prestige classes. I have the feeling that there is a better way to do this, but I can't think of it. I think i want to primarily make him a skill monkey. To make him effective in combat, I'm thinking of taking dodge/mobility/spring attack to take advantage of the excessive speed.
This isn't for any particular game, so any class or items or races to boost speed is cool. Because of the concept I had in mind, I'm not too keen on using magic to go faster, but if there is some spell that is excessively good, I'm willing to work it in. I have thought about expeditious retreat, but if that's the only speed increasing spell... To actually make him effective in combat, I'll probably take dodge/mobility/spring attack to squeeze all of the use out of the speed as possible.
Thanks in advanced for all your ideas and input!
