I have had a discussion with FarmerBink about Fiilburn morphing into a different build that would better fit his trait (Riftwarden Orphan). The idea would be to become a Black-Blade Arcanist/Eldritch Knight, still fulfilling the role of magically-endowed swordsman, but doing it in a different way that might allow some significant retraining and reworking of Filburn into a PC that better fits that idea. If no one else is likely to be upset by such an action, I might go ahead and do that during a period of significant down-time and do what I can to make the build work out better for that trait's fluff.

Does anyone have any issues with such a shift?
