If the party doesn't have any innate healing, I was going to relax my restrictions a little bit. But if there's a druid or favored soul in the party, I'm going to keep it to core spells only.

Power level is basically optimization level. In other words how well the PC is built, but if you are telling me about DR powers that I don't know about I guess I might need to step my game up instead of stepping down.

PS: I want to play an Elan. If that is not ok I will go human.

re: DR and powers, just read CPsi. It effectively erratas a number of different powers and rules from XPH. I'm using all of the CPsi rules except for the one that says that powers that do "weapon-like" damage (slashing, piercing, and/or bashing) are affected by DR. That one's dumb.

Moderate optimization is fine, as is playing an elan.

CArc and CMage are both allowed for feats and PClasses. I'm not as familiar with CMage, so it's a little more likely that I'll nix something from it, but don't take that as a reason to not put up a skeleton using stuff from it.

Selecting Players
As far as picking players, my concerns are 1) getting players to keep the game from falling apart in five months and 2) putting a party together that will be good for the planned compaign. As to how I'll figure out all that from the posts in this thread, I'm not really sure yet. I'll work something out over the weekend.
