What books can you use? It's hard to give advice before knowing that. And when you say stunt what do you mean? Jumping, charging, etc, is that what you mean?

Okay, I'm going off the top of my head right now. Later I can do better (hopefully).

Even though I dislike the book, Tome of Battles would be really big for you. There are schools and techniques based around moving in funky ways before attacking and leaping around. I'd run this by your DM before using it as the book and character classes has been highly debated as to whether it is broken or not. Let him decide for you.

As for feats, there is Leap Attack and Two Weapon Rend come to mind. The Tempest class has a Two Weapon Spring Attack option. There is a feat or a Pclass ability, can't remember without any books, that allows you to charge in non-lines.

Wall runs...nothing comes to mind. There may be something but not that I know off hand.

The Jump skill is going to be your friend. Much of what you are looking for can be done with just that. In general, you can add a lot of the flavor you are looking for to the same skills everyone has. How you describe it can be just as good as any rule.

Complete Scoundrel is essentially an entire sourcebook for handling acrobatic combatants. The section on Skill Tricks is exactly what you're looking for.

How do you know if gss_000 knows what he's saying?

I'd like to demonstrate that he doesn't and that he's making everything up on the fly, albeit completely unconsciously due to a form of schizofrenia that afflicts him.

My first argument to support my allegation will rely on his name. What sort of a name is gss_000 anyway? Both alphabetical and numerical, we can already see the personality schism appearing here.

Second argument: he's an underboss. Don't trust underbosses. These are the guys that want power but aren't there yet, and they're ready to do anything to get it. Plus, being under the boss makes it difficult to breathe and it affects your brain.

Finally, notice his avatar: if that isn't one of a warmonger, i don't know what is. A schizofreniac warmonger, obviously.

Keep all of that in mind while you evaluate just how helpful his comments really are. And... make sure you lock your door when you go to bed tonight.

Thank you so much for that, Sky. After the crankiness going around on some of the forums I really needed that laugh.

Don't trust anything someone who hides behind an adorable kid as an avatar.

I'l take the points one by one:

1) If more forums would allow me not to use alphanumeric names, I would be. Besides, except for the "000" part that's a nickname I've gone by for years.

2) My sinuses have cleared up nicely since I've gotten out of the cluttered ranks of the sergents. They need to wash more.

3) My avatar is the cover painted by Michael Whelan from The Mageborn Traitor by Melanie Rawn. So she is famous for writing books that kills off characters left and right. So I like evokers because of their boom and dmage output. It means nothing. Really. Hey, what's that over there....

And I'm very single minded about what I do. Psychotic, maybe. Schizofrenic, never.

Back to the topic at hand, here are some other Pclass options for you (all fom Complete Adventurer):

Dread Pirate. Has an ability caled Acrobatic Charge with the flavor you want, but since it's pirate based it might not work well.

Exemplar: Be so good in a skill that you impress everyone. Sometimes it's rediculous, like if you take Exemplar: Craft (Cooking)

Thief Acrobat: Very much what you want. Can use skills fast without penalty, kip-up, attacking from prone, slow fall, defensive roll. Very movement based.

What will really help you also is if you can get a climb speed. While running on walls will still be hard, it can open up opportunities others don't have. Check out Anthropomorphic Animals in Savage Species. Be careful since it came out before the update to 3.5, but a friend of mine is using it now so it might be okay. The same things can be said for winged creatures, like avariels from Forgoten Realms, Raptorans from Races of the Wild, and Dargonborns who have taken Wings from Races of the Dragon. Avaiels have a +1 LA, which may be a problem if you start at 1st level. Whenever I expand my movement modes I become a lot more creative with how my characters move.
