hola, im back.
first of all, again ty for all suggestions.
second: my enemy now have a face - let's exploit em somehow

i have 5 players other than myself, builded as follow.

1 ranger archer human : basic archer build (wf longbow - point blank shoot - precise shoot)
1 wizard human : basic generalist wizard
1 rogue human or halfling : basic dual dagger rogue -> assasin wannabe
1 necromancer cleric elf : a 10 cha necromancer maybe melee cleric + tomb tainted soul maybe some kind of minion master
1 melee fighter orc : a basic 5 wis big stick orc (power attack - clave)

And me.
i must be the dreadlord. The pure evil one cit.
i must show them true evil - beating em down in case of need.
i must bend them under my will - humiliating them in case of need.
and i'm allowed to use vile D (aka "the book of pure evil"cit).

how to archive this goal?

i've seen a quite flavoured build, but maybe it need some optimization : this dreadlord (paladin/hexblade/urpriest/boneknight)

again, im coming to you all asking for some advice.
ty all

That build is fairly optimized as far as the "dark knight" concept goes.  You can add more fear stacking with Imperious Command and such.

maybe bk or hexeblade can be replaced by something else keeping a good to hit.
just asking, and actually at work so, away form my manuals.

i've taken this build as a base concept, but dark knight concept is just one of more options.
always open to suggestions.

If you're open to more Cleric-y-ness:

Cloistered Cleric -> Boneknight -> Ordained Champion.
This is only if your DM lets you do Ordained Champion without worshiping those particular deities.

DMM Persist Shenanigans. Use the obvious buffs for that, Divine Wrath and Righteous Might.
Swap Knowledge Domain for the Knowledge Devotion feat, as per Complete Champion. Use buff spells for the knowledge checks, so you always have a decent bonus for this. Alternatively, you can use the Ordained Champion class feature to swap out the granted power for a Fighter feat.
Have the other Domains be Planning (for free Extend Spell), and and Undeath (it is appropriate, and it grants a free Extra Turning feat).

Ordained Champion gets a spell channel ability at 3rd, so you can sword swipe them with a Blade of Shivering Touch. in order to absolutely @WHUMP your party-mates.

You're not a God-Wizard, you're a CoDzilla. But, and here is the main thing, you aren't locking things down or controlling the field, you are walking up, and hitting them hard with your weapon.

And because you are a melee fullcaster, you can scale your attack power as far up or down as needed for the circumstance.

Play a DMM Cleric.  Use Persistent Boreal Wind.  Buy a Bead of Karma.
Boreal Wind has a variable range, thus can't be persisted.

Nope.  The range is set by your caster level, and thus doesn't change over time or anything.  It actually counts (Close, Medium, and Long range spells can also be persisted).

And it's devastating.

Other silly tricks: 

Be a Tainted Sorcerer (my favorite build is Binder 1/Archivist 3/Tainted Sorcerer 1/Anima Mage 10/Tenebrous Apostate 5 with the divine adaptation of Anima Mage).  Use Symbol of Sleep and Symbol of Persuasion on a flag as a standard tactic... enemies simply join you.  Also make use of Favorable Sacrifice and Holy Defense to ensure the enemy has serious trouble harming you.  Control Temperature can be devastating with this combo, as it stops enemies from charging due to extreme cold (they get fatigued).

ty all for suggestions.
Im actually working on the dreadlord concept and we have a new palyer incoming - ill open a new thread for him^^
And, more on, he will take my panic button role playng something to mess up pg minds in a mostly rpg way - something/chamaleon as far as I know.


@JaronK - that build is something beyond any possible definition of evil...i can't decide if i want to play it or marry it. And have lill baby evil divine binder runnig around my home sacrificing young wirgins to some obscure squidheaded entity.
