Intro Since this player is new to D&D and wants to play a Wild Shape happy Druid, I figured I'd help her. This character is primarily meant to tank and melee.
Campaign & Character Constraints -I'm using a 32 point buy. Wealth and gear are standard for ECL1s.
-We begin NAKED and IMPRISONED at ECL1 with no guarantee of getting our pre-imprisonment stuff back. As a Druid, this matters little.
-We probably won't get past level 10.
-No respeccing, rebuilding, or retraining. Ever.
-Alignments Allowed: True Neutral and any Good. I may be able to persuade my DM into allowing LN or CN, but I'd prefer not.
-No undead PCs. We can still rebuke, command, and create undead minions.
-2 flaws and 2 traits.
-All polymorph buffs are self-only. Wild Shape is self-only.
-Magic-psionic transparency is in place. Magic item creation feats can't be used to make psionic items and vice versa.
-The max number of skill ranks is always 3 + HD.
-As this isn't Eberron, there are no action points!
-Willing allies may pay up to 100% of the crafting XP cost.
-Disable Device also covers locks.
-Summon nature's ally isn't worth casting and thus I want to avoid summoning.
-Leadership is gutted and not worth using.
Source Material -Anything 3.5 or unupdated 3.0, pending DM approval. No wraithstrike. -Anything from the Spell Compendium will require a "good reason" to take. Fortunately, most SC spells are available from other sources.

Notes: I want to be an effective melee person with Wild Shape and no summoning. I'm mostly unsure on what feats to pick.

Should I invest anything in Craft? With a Wizard ally able to cast magecraft, and masterwork tools, we can take 10 and get over 20. For some reason, I thought of maxing Craft: Traps with this character and I don't recall why.
