Bregan D’aerthe Mercenary:  For most, CA is easy to get, but for a few builds (or low level rogues), this is amazing.
1: Skulldaggery Starting feature is pretty meh, even if it is a power and skill bump.
5: Uncertain Loyalties: Standard action ranged (becareful of OA's) is a waste of space for most builds, but if you have alot of pusnishment (usually by being a defender) you can force the hurt, or at least auto-stun (Undeniable Challenge).
10: Bluff as a minor: Another use of skulldaggery, but only if you have good a good bluff.  Uncertain Loyalties will still either be worth it, or not.

2: Weapon Ring:  Pure RP bait, but at least it's a good one.   See if you can use it on a lock, or trap component, or the Mc Guffin.
6: Tiny Sunbrust: Shield light, but shield is good
10: Dimentional Confusion: Flexible movement has it's uses.


Elderboy:  Take this for the lvl 1 feature.  Mostly good for defenders.
1: Endure Torment: This should negate about 1 hit of damage per encounter, and it scales perfectly.
5: Posion isn't that common.
10: You usually arn't attacked by allies, and the init bonus is pretty small.  But it could be handy for defenders with blaster allies.

2: Shift Blame: While it's conciveable that an ally has better defenses, it's pretty conditional.  Could be useful for defenders with high punishment, but allies still likely have to take pain, and you used your immidiate.
6: Betray Confidence:  Even assuming you can pull off 10 attacks, this only helps you 50% of the time, but a bonus is a bonus.  Vuln 2 isn't much though, and it becomes more of a flavor thign over time.
Beg Lolth's Favor: Most of the time you'll want the -4 to attacks.  But having the flexibility is pretty nice.

Melee-Magthere Champion: All in all a solid theme for a melee guy, probably a defender.
1: Lurking Spider: If your hit, your already in range, so slow doesn't help.  The defensive bonus likely won't help either.
5: Sudden Roots, good for those who get OA's.
10: Turns Lurking Spider into Strikebacks.

2:Blade Spider’s Lunge: You generally don't want to be hit.
6: Dance of the Phase Spider: Shifting after enemies is a pretty good deal. To bad it's an immidiate.  But you also get forced movement resistace.  All in all, this helps make you quite sticky.
10: Black Widow’s Bite: And odd thing for a utility, but it's never wasted.


Sorcerer Adept:  If you can reliably stun, this is a great PP.
1: Blood Empowerment:  Quite a bit of damage for a reroll.  However, if you or an ally can stun an enemy, then it's quite a bit of damage and a reroll.
5: Ritual Caster, A free feat is a pretty big boon.
10: Possibly a massive boost to a skill, and a free ritual casting is great.  Never sleep out of a magic circle again.  Or more broken yet, make magic items and potions for free.

2: Demonic Ward: Solid amount of resist for an encounter.
5: Shiver Flesh: Odd to have attack powers.  Nothing wrong or standout about this though.
9: Glasstrike: Petrified is a very good condition.  Even with resist you get free crits, and can use blood empowerment.  Better with saveing throw penalties, though it lacks keywords.  Best with archmage and penalites.
