Commentary:
If a Hatchetman needs to acquire some important item or information from a building, they are more likely walk through the front door than go through the window. And when the enter the front door, to will do so as the occupant’s new friend. (They may even come posed as the occupant’s old friend if they are talented enough.)
Hatchetmen reley on their skills and spells for infiltration. Some these skills are: Appraise, Knowledge: Common or Popular, Speak Languages, Decipher Script and Write Languages, Forgery and Detect Forgery, Gather and Analyze Evidence, Knowledge: Academic, Specific or Obscure, Research, Cooking, Domestic Proficiency, Gamble, Listen and Spot, Professional Proficiency, Bluff, Diplomacy, Handle Animal, Perform, Disguise, Gather Information, Interrogate, and Intimidate.
Some of their infiltration spells include: Remote Senses, Sense Truth, Mask, and Mind Read.
Most Hatchetmen are taught Death spells. Few cast Death spells openly, due to the negative stigmas attached to them. In some places it is even illegal to know how to cast Death spells. Hatchetmen learn the Spell Category mostly so they can Conjure Poison, if the situation requires it.
Notes:
This character uses their level 1 feat to gain Ranged Training: Basic, making them decent at shooting. This build has no other skills or feats to be factored.
