Thinking of doing a kensai monk for my next life. STR based THF with greatswords (already run a few staff lives, don't want to do another for a bit). Most likely Dragonborn race, since I'm working on RTR's.

I'm thinking for the split a minimum monk 6 (adept of forms, 3rd martial arts feat) fighter 8 (greater weapon focus). T5's in kensai (35 AP's), henshin for lighting the candle (13 AP's).

Things I'm looking for, reliable healing/temp HP. Advice on how to fill out the last 6 levels of the split.

Thoughts I've had include paladin 6 for LoH's, saves, and some light damage. Cleric/FVS for ameliorating strike (doesn't kick in for a while though). Warlock for temp HP/ES goodies. Rouge for skills and traps. Of course I could finish out with more monk or fighter levels, but I don't see anything in particular I would gain

I do not have FDI, but I have all the other universal trees. Would probably be going to 30 for an EPL, so functionality in EE would be a plus. If I remember my tomes right, I have +7 wis, +5 dex, and +3 str con int cha.
