Compilation of Low Level Builds

The Bomber
Male Mineral Warrior Kobold Commoner 1; CR 1 & 1/4; Small Humanoid (Reptilian, Earth); HD 1d4+1; hp 5; Init +1; Spd 30 ft., Burrow 15 ft.; AC 16 (+0 armor, +1 dex, +4 natural armor, +1 size), touch 12, flat-footed 15; Base Atk +0; Grp -4; Atk +1 melee (1d2+0/x2; Unarmed Strike); Space/Reach 5 ft./5 ft.; SA Earth Strike (1/day; +1 atk; +1 dmg); SQ Darkvision (60ft.), Damage Reduction 8/Adamantine; AL LN; SV Fort +1, Ref +1, Will -1; Str 10, Dex 12, Con 12, Int 8, Wis 9, Cha 8.
Skills and Feats: Knowledge (Religion) +1 and Speak Language (Draconic); Final Strike (Savage Species).

The main point of this build is for the bomber, consumed in their religious quest, to make it to their target so they may be vanquished and thus self-detonate. While the DR8/Adamantine is nice it serves merely as a guard until the bomber reaches their destination. When the bomber does pull off his jihad he does a simple 1d6 of earth damage (reflex save of 11) but this is nothing compared to the secondary effect. When destroyed the Bomber triggers the Earthquake spell (reflex save of 11) which is an eighth-level spell!

Now imagine sending these guys into battle...

So here is a tough, low-level minion used in my campaign world. Used primarily as enemy fodder they bring some nice strengths in the form of solid offensive might, the ability to 'convert' booze into healing potions and some flavorful skills. Their common tactic includes charging their opponent and than grappling them into any nearby water source. I present to you the frat boys of the rough waters.

The Cannibal

Human Warlock 6

Feats:
Corpsecrafter (H), Destruction Retribution (1), Tomb-tainted Soul (3), whatever (6)

Invocations:
See the Unseen
Entropic Warding (Alternatvely Spiderwalk)
Baleful Utterance
The Dead Walk

A surprisingly useful character in a dungeon.  Entropic Warding helps keep him alive while he blasts away with his 3d6 eldritch blast (which is still decent at level 6).  He can locate many foes even in the dark.  Handy, since invisible foes start showing up somewhat frequently at this level.  Using Detect Magic, he can locate magical traps more reliably than a Rogue can, allowing for better disabling (via Baleful Utternace) or avoidance, if disabling is not an option.

However, the real use is that every corpse is a potential minion or snack.  If he uses black onyx, he obtains a decent meatshield.  If he doesn't, then the minion explodes a few minutes later, healing himself and any minions in the area.  They can even be used in combat as sort of vampiric bombs.  Each minion is also a mundane trapfinder.  Since most of these traps use poison and/or piercing damage, skeletons are excellent for this task as they will frequently survive.  Once the trap has revealed its location, it can usually be hit with Baleful Utterance for disabling.  In addition, locks and jammed doors are not a problem as he can break them with baleful Utterance.

Good stuff. I'll have to try this out. Thanks.

Doable by level 2 without flaws.

And at level 1 with them (or partially so without flaws).

I'm still trying to find a way to give kobolds the [human] subtype at level 1.

The downside to this is that the corpsecrafter line of feats only apply to undead you create with spells (by RAW).  Invocations are spell-like-abilities, and woudn't benefit from them.

Personally, I house-rule the heck out of this in favor of allowing the corpsecrafter line.

I really find this one of the most useful handbooks. Just saying.

Screw using onyx. Just make your 6th level feat Master of Undeath (CM).

Good stuff. I'll update the 1st page with links. I've been neglecting this for a while...

I would love it sooooooooooooo much if you updated the first page with all the builds that people have put up.

What use will controlling a single undead for caster level days do if it only lasts for caster level minutes at maximum?  You still need onyx to make them last longer.
