    I think the wood elf race would work great for this build, especially their background and command animal ability. I might give this build a try.

    This is such an awesome build! I'm a sucker for all Kyne related builds and this one is no exception!

    Not sure about some of the "special" moves in this... Dragonhide + Fire Breath can be done by any Alteration user, for example. Similar thing with Storm Call + Ward... Neither seem like very useful pairings, more like separate things thrown together for the sake of it. A special move should be a combo that is key to the character, not a couple of random spells or abilities.

    Ow come on, it's way better than Fus Ro Smash. My DoC's signature move is blowing up cadavers, which can be done done by any character with Ahzidal's Ring.  I mean seriously, these abilities reflect this character's style, no matter how easily they can be performed by others...

    Yours also incorporates Paralysis to keep enemies where you want them, as well as poisons to enhance the effect. Dark Exorcism is one of the most unique moves I've ever seen, as is once again based on that signature idea. A special move doesn't need to be complicated, but if it isn't then the abilities really need to synergize together. Dragonhide and Fire Breath have no synergy; one doesn't enhance the other, make the other easier to perform, etc. It's literally just two random things used for the sake of it.

    *blushes* Heh, I agree that Dragonhide and Fire Breath don't have a gameplay synergy. But, if we're talking roleplay, I think the two are a good fit. The way I see it, this character wants to become more dragon-ish and using those two abilities works because of the names.
