I decided I want to be a Leprechaun that gets into adventures trying to help and hinder people based on how I feel about them at that moment. I chose halfling druid class and I use shillelagh and good berry mainly. I'm also thinking about adding the fighter class. But I'm hoping for some creative suggestions for spells and items I could use for my leprechaun and class build ideas for a potentially better version than what I'm currently using

Edit: this is also my first playthrough so please be light on the spoilers

I'd run spells designed to trick, obfuscate, and hide:

Dancing lights, color spray, invisibility (self), magic mouth, ventriloquism, and major image.

Shillelagh is the main source of damage, but a leprechaun can use a dagger as well.

Jack up DEX, INT, WIS, and CHA.

Take feats centered around escape, survival, and high initiative to go first as much as possible.

Also, leprechauns are known for stealing your shit and taunting you into giving chase so slight of hand and anything around picking pockets

Equipment:

Disintegrating Night Walkers would be a huge must wear.

Graceful Cloth dyed green

Gloves of Dexterity

Amulet of Windrider

Orphic Ring

Ring of Free Action

I might do this too after look up items and equipment to make a leprechaun, lol. This sounds like a fun playthrough where the main guy is a major trickster and pisses off the enemy and pickpockets all their shit

Im definitely going to try to implement pickpocketing more, now that you say that. I've mainly been doing my best to provide "good" or "bad" luck by tricking people to help others or the other way around

Definitely carry a few grease bottles to drop around you. I've found that's a fun thing to do now and then while wearing the Nightwalkers. You can't slip, but anyone around you can.
