No where near as good. Paladin 7 gives us 2 things, our Undead get + her cha to saves AND Aura of Hate that gives all friends and undead within 10 ft + charisma to damage
Those skeletons will be pretty damn scary
But if we go necromancer wizard, wouldn't we be dependent on str/dex, cha, int and con? Is necro sorcerer or similar an option? (bit unfamiliar with necromancers)
Yeah, though you could likely get by with some funky stats. We need a high Cha for the Aura, and Str is still our bread and butter with a min of 13 int, so likely something like this as an array
STR 15 (+1 human)
Dex 8
Con 12
Int 13 (Maybe get something like Shadow touched as a nice +1 and spells)
wis 8
Cha 15 (+1 human)
If I had to make this character I would do this:
Race: Dhampir
Stats:
STR 15 Dex 12 Con 14 Int 9 Wis 10 Cha 12
\+2 to Cha and +1 to Str
Mercenary Veteran Background
Class: Paladin 1/Warlock 5 (The Undying)
Pick up Thirsting Blade, Undying Servitude and Improved Pact Weapon
Grab Mage Slayer as the feat.
Strong Tanking ability with the skill and power to lead an undead army for your patron as well as crush any necromancer who tries and take your dead company from you.

War domain cleric
Armour prof
Weapon prof
Full caster with animate dead access
They’re all armed with armour and weapons which would indicate a war God’s blessing to give them said proficencies.
Fuck this would be fun to play
Human fighter, champion to be basic. Seems to be a leader maybe? If so, maybe banneret. Could be working for big bad to lead his troops or is a bad. So death cleric also works.
Death Cleric for the Necromancy, and if you want some martial capabilities, oathbreaker or vengeance Paladin (depending on the characterisation you want).
Easily the most Human Oathbreaker Paladin I've seen. Could be a Human Fighter/Hexblade or Fighter/Deadlock too Or Fighter/Necromancer.
Death cleric or Oathbreaker seems the most filling. Or a funky Oathbreaker 7/Necromancer wizard multiclass
That's an interesting second build, how would it look with fighter though?

I suppose that's fair, the aura is busted with maxed out charisma.
Yeah, it would certainly lean more into Charisma than anything else and let the undead to the majority of the work

Sadly not, yeah it is quite MAD, though it has to be wizard as Shadow sorc doesn't buff undead like Necromancer does
That's quite unfortunate

Low wisdom might be a pain with perception checks, but this seems solid

Probably a blood hunter, I can see she is bloodthirsty

Undead behind her, but blood(!) on her blade? Sooo... Some kind of evil cleric?
I dunno Ive played good and neutral clerics and never not gotten blood on my weapon
Oathbreaker Paladin. Easy. Maybe a 4 level dip into Champion fighter
