Done with the Crunch... Missing the Bio and the Familiar.. question any class that grants +1 to CL counts for the purpose of familiar traits right?
Unless they state that they specially help your familiar, they do not.
"+1 level of existing class" under Spells per day just means that you're treated as gaining another level in the class for spellcasting and spellcasting only. You get +1 CL, spells per day as if you're one level higher, and (if applicable) spells known as if you're one level higher. That's it. No bonuses to your familiar.
Sigh i kinda though so but wasnt sure... oh well Level 4 Familiar... poor thing wont survive long.... I just might have to get Stitched Flesh Familiar :p...
Also 5,000 in Spell Components! which basically means a Bag full of Onyx Gems for my Raised Undead....
Will write the Bio later tonigh if i can, hopefully i can scratch the Weasel quickly

Coming from a long bloodline of wizards, Djan was the black sheep of his family, not taking very well to the study of arcane magic like all of his ancestors. The family really tried to teach him, and managed to get him to learn a few cantrips and other easy spells in time, although he didn't learn them like a wizard did, but rather by drawing from the arcane overflow coming from his bloodline. His parents were very ashamed of him, to the point where they didn't want to show their child around in any parties. Instead, during a party or gathering they locked him in the basement and told the quests that he was away, studying magic in some university. This is where Djan developed his phobia for being left alone. He didn't stand this treatment for long, however, and fled from his home after a few years of such treatment, leaving just a note behind. Due to his phobia, he was always searching for company from just about anyone, and he got to be quite good with people over time. Eventually he began life as a travelling bard, as in the profession, you're not alone.

I should have enough time for this campaign too. I'm thinking a paladin who is deathly afraid of birds/bats/any small winged creature really because after he had a small partridge for dinner one night, he awoke in the middle of the night to find it reanimated and eating his left eye.

Why would you use elite array for it? It is exactly as the basic creature noted in MM, or whatever book it is. That means no elite array, or even nonelite array, unless specifically allowed by something.

Quote from Improving Monsters from SRD »
Monsters are assumed to have completely average (or standard) ability scores—a 10 or an 11 in each ability, as modified by their racial bonuses. However, improved monsters are individuals and often have better than normal ability scores, and usually make use of either the elite array or the nonelite array of ability scores. Monsters who improve by adding a template, and monsters who improve by increasing their Hit Dice, may use any of the three arrays (standard, nonelite, or elite). Any monster unique enough to be improved could easily be considered elite.
And
Quote from Familiar"s section from SRD »
Hit Dice For the purpose of effects related to number of Hit Dice, use the master’s character level or the familiar’s normal HD total, whichever is higher.
Since the weasel would increase to 15 HD (note it says character level not class level), i wasnt sure if it would be legal grounds for adopting the Elite Array on the stats. I will say however that i still have 3 Stat points to assign as well as 3 feats (which i already added), as well as 15 Skill Points (due to its abominable Int, already assigned). The BaB i already adjusted as i did the saves.
I was just wondering if the increase in HD is justifiable grounds for the Elite Array as per the rules in Improving the Monster.

Nope, sorry, no Elite Array. Really the only reason to have your familiar with higher stats is to let him run around in combat. Trust me, you don't want that. Especially with some of the baddies I've got planned.
Everything scares me... kitties scare me... squirrels scare me... corpses....corpses bring forth a pletora of confusing feeling which i prefer not to dwell on...:p

Share Spells + Shapechange => The familiar is better fighter than the team's fighter. Share a few more protective spells on it and I see no reason not to.

Sigh.... i normally dont do those kind of things so i was going to just keep quite about it, besides i have already set my spell list with almost no transformation spells of course i still have a few spells that turn me into a fighting juggernaut... so who knows perhaps you guys will see a giant weasel of doom going around
Edit: I had forgotten about the 5 feet limitation for share spell... oh well Giant Weasel of Doom as a Body Guard isnt bad either lets me send my greater Undead into the fray
Everything scares me... kitties scare me... squirrels scare me... corpses....corpses bring forth a pletora of confusing feeling which i prefer not to dwell on...:p
I suppose that means you are putting either something specially designed against undead or you are making a cleric of higher level to take control of my undead :p... sigh oh well will just have to improvise

I didn't realize until shadowy informed me, I had a question a while back that wasn't legible due the color. I've now fixed the color and will repost the question.
If my character can afford it, can he have all the spells from the Spell Compendium in his books? I won't use very many of them. I just want to have them just to claim his vast knowledge.

Ehhh, for some reason it doesn't sound like a terribly good idea to me.
Even if you don't use many of them, the fact that they're there is a huge temptation.
Plus, nobody has that much knowledge.
I'd rule that more than half of the spells in the Spell Compendium are custom spells designed by specific casters throughout the world. To find them, talk to them, convince them to share their knowledge, and to learn all of their spells would take centuries, if not millenia.

Thanks. I just wanted to play a character with a fear of birds, because I myself find them mildly creepy (and I haven't even seen The Birds) and flinch when they take flight nearby me, so I thought it would be fun to play a character that takes my fear the the extreme, this was really the most realistic scenario I could think of that would really cause terror at the sight of a song bird.
