That's actually a pretty good idea. It would be always on, and you could always make an OA with a Ki Focused Wrist Razor. The damage size is pretty irrelevant (only really need it for OAs, if you are going to attack someone melee, you can swap out for a short sword or rapier). However, I try and leeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnn away from such things as using Rhythym Blade Spiked Shields without prof. I'd still just throw mundane wrist razors on for the OA thing (why not). Also, to erachima's dismay on the errata thread... Again, doesn't explain RAW, but spells out *exactly* the RAI. So standard disclaimer here: I am a freelancer who submitted work, WotC R&D takes passes through it, etc. and my answers are only based upon my RAI when submitting them and my rules answers are unofficial. OK, that out of the way…  " class="wp-smiley" /> If you use one of the Assassin poisons that lasts until the end of the encounter, you can toss 3 shurikens every round that use the poison when using the shuriken power. If you use a poison that only lasts for the next attack, you can toss the 3 shurikens with the poison when using the shuriken power, and all 3 will be affected by the poison that you hit. So your Bloodroot Poison can potentially affect up to the 3 targets in a round in which you hit them all, whereas your Carrion Crawler Brain Juice can potentially hit 3 targets every round until the end of the encounter. Hope that helps.

I am going to start the long process of manually editting the entire build to make it more readable.  EDIT: Does anyone know how to notify a mod that you would like the thread's title changed? I feel like "Report Post" is the wrong way to do it.

Yea, it's an understandably sketchy issue. Seems to be a pretty strong case that light shield prof is the only thing you need though. At worst, it means you'll just need to burn a feat to use a fairly lackluster weapon (at least it's a light blade)
Since you're pumping Int, then the Radiant One ED might be a decent choice. Another +Int to damage (along with radiant/fire shenanigans), a rather strong revival feature, a very nice daily utility (though it likely prevents you from hiding), and a 1/day extra round of actions are pretty decent. Really wish it had a stat bump though... 
Have you considered races other than Gnome?
Edit: I'm curious to see what kind of critfishing possibilities there are with this...only thing I thought of was Two-Fisted Shooter but that has AC and swapping issues

Doesn't radiant one overwrite my poison keyword?

So jsut to be clear, Radiant One adds "Whenever you deal damage to a target that is granting combat advantage to you, you deal extra fire and radiant damage to the target equal to your Intelligence modifier."
This means my shurikens have the poison, fire and radiant keywords, assuming I have CA?

So, what are some good tricks to add with the Radiant and Fire keywords?
I mean, MC, PP, ED all chosen... is there anything cheese out on?
