Special Mount: Nightmare

Trying to figure out what manuever and stances I could get into. If any ideas, please help. Much appreciated. I also need to take feats for the Nightmare.

You don't have a lot of options with an IL 8 and no martial adept classes. It'll be hard to qualify for many maneuvers because you won't meet the prereqs, but there are a couple in shadow hand that you might like:

Shadow Jaunt - 50ft standard action teleport that requires line of sight and line of effect.
Cloak of Deception - A swift action boost that lets you turn invisible as if you had cast greater invisibility for one round.

 There were a couple of ability score affecting strikes as well, but their DCs were keyed off of wisdom.

I'd go with Shadow Jaunt.  That or if you could put in Improved Bull Rush and Shock Trooper, Sudden Leap would be useful.

Yep, I second ...er third Shadow Jaunt.  I believe that is the Move action version and it is quite handy.

Never know when you need to get out of or to a tight spot and seems nicely consistent flavor for the character.

I might adjust that, considering I have access to the Book of Vile Darkness, so I might add on Disciple of Asmodeus to continually exploit my high Charisma and have more damage to my smite good attacks. Since also added the Hexbands, I can pretty much kill something good aligned. too bad I can't get Celestial Slayer
