Will wild child effect my ability to take hierophant level? the -2 lore? I'm guessing it's base skill points. I probably just won't take any background... I don't want to risk messing things up and I really want to play this character lol...

Notice the adjusted leveling order. The earlier Assassin level allows better skill point investment by unlocking core skills.

As for Wild Child, it just gives a skill bonus and negatives. PRCs use skill ranks, and hence it will not affect your PRC qualification. I picked wild child for its stealth bonuses.

As for Thieves Tools, those pop up in chests and random loot. You can also purchase +12 Skeleton Keys from the Sshamath Bazaar. It is the epic merchant with two different merchant item lists. The Skeleton Keys come with a bit of weight though, but it should not be a big issue. When you open locks, you also get bit of extra experience.

I built the new character, but didn't take wild child. It is +1 hide and ms, but i didn't want the negative stuff just in case. Idk that the 1 hide and ms will ruin me lol... it could.

In PvE, it probably won't... But this server does have its share of Stealth-Spotting arms race, thus it is difficult to let go of old habbits. The +1 stealth skill comes at no real expense and that is why it is recommended to all stealth using characters.

You could also get the other 'Foreigner' character history trait. There are two, one offers some skill adjustments while the other, the better choice, grants you one additional language. It could fit well a priestess of Lolth in a dorw city ruled by typically male wizards.

Wild child gives -2 Lore: Arcana specifically. This will not affect your Lore: Religion skill at all.

Well, you could RCR in the following way:

1) Create character with (current name + extra character at the end)
2) Do the RCR tango
3) Ask a DM to remove the extra character at the end

I'm level 10 now and half way to 11... I know that +1 can save me on a roll, but it's just so dang inconvenient. I've RcRed this toon twice already :( and that was after she was a Svirfneblin
