Frost Magic/Nature Magic in Secrets of Skelos allows you to become a beast of your choice.
So at scholar level 6 you could have 3 or more forms easily.
Air : Giant Bat, Great Eagle or eagle
Ground: Grey Ape or Bear.
Water: Shark or better
Thing is with the fell of frost spell you can increase your damage reduction by 2. You become the animal form so you get their natural damage reduction plus your frost reduction.
Now add in barding or actual armor (add in a level of solider so you're proficient) you're talking about a ridiculously armored animal. A Grey ape in a mail hauberk, breast plate and great helm has 15 damage reduction....(9 from armor ,2 from helm,2 from ape, 2 from spell)
Plus as they are a large creature they can wield 2 handed weapons in one hand... Meaning your character or NPC bad guy can dual wield bardiches/greatswords etc.
Now you can walk around cleaving people in half and using opportunistic sacrifice to get power points back by the bucket load.
The whole thing is so wonderfully silly. I just had to share.
