Greetings, all!

I was considering this build today for a first or second life character. I chose these due to a CHA and WIS focus (which helps Favored Souls). This gets CHA to all saves, Evasion, and WIS to AC. It's primarily a caster once it gets past its need for defenses.

I chose Bladeforged due to reconstruct as a SLA and getting -2 DEX instead of -2 CHA. Starting at L15 helps with multiclassing. Should I use a Lesser Heart of Wood +1 and change the initial Paladin level for Monk due to higher skill points?

What stat distribution do you recommend? What about feats and enhancements? I'm unsure how to optimize this otherwise.
