Hmm, no duskblade I'm afraid as I don't have the supplement with that in. I *might* be persuaded to use the Arcana Evolved Mage Blade although it would need some work to blend it with the Pathfinder rules (not much, but enough). On a related note, humans in Pathfinder get proficiency with any one martial weapon of their choice, so you could find it easier to create a sword-wielding spellcaster.

Duskblade

Duskblade is in PHB II. It's one of new official full classes. It's not supplement as such...

And it's more fighter then caster, it has full BAB and only about dozen spells on it's list.

Still, if not that, I'll think of a concept overnight. Once I get to see Pathfinder I'll see what is available...

And I'll check Mage Blade

If you allow the crossbow feats from players guide PDF I would like to play a crossbow wielding dwarf ranger.

From the CoTC Player's Guide? Crossbow Mastery? Yeah, happy with that. The crossbow-wielding dwarf ranger seems to be one of the Pathfinder iconics

@ Neurotic: I don't mind duskblade if you can send me the details, it's just that I don't have it to hand. It'll need a bit of tweaking to align it with the changes in PF, but probably not much, it's not a hugely different system to 3.5

I'd love to get in on this if there's still room; I like what I've seen of the Pathfinder system. Only a dozen posts in the thread so far but it already seems full up.

If there's room however, I have to admit I was intrigued by Dr Simon's mention of Arcana Evolved. I'd love to try a Faen, possibly as a warlock or a dragonfire adept if possible. I've been hoping to play such a character for a good long while now, but it isn't every DM's cup of tea.

Let me know if there's room please.

I got the pathfinder rules. From my initial looking over the changes to the classes form 3e seem interesting. My gut desire is sorcerer, but I'll ask your stance on having more than one of the same class as some else also expressed that desire.

Ambrus: Faen we can probably go with - all PF races have a net +2 to ability scores so we'd need to address that. I don't have the rules for warlocks or dragonfire adepts (although, if we were going to mix in AE then I could probably allow Witch as a similar class). Also, PF sorcerer, wizard and cleric all get powers depending on bloodline, specialisation or domains (respectively) that are a bit similar to warlock powers (from what I can tell).

Oni: I don't mind multiple characters of the same class - at least with the PF sorcerers you can try different bloodlines to make them different. I know Shayuri will want to play one. Shayuri *always* plays sorcerers

I'm interested, with a couple caveats I haven't played a PbP before so I need to know what level of participation and response time is expected, and I'm in Hawaii, I would have most access m-f 10:30am est- 8pm est.

I'm flexible beyond that, although I only recently downloaded the pathfinder beta so I'll need to do some research.

Let me know if despite all these potential handicaps you'd be interested in having me

Here's the Dragonfire Adept

I'd have to take a look at that. Essentially, I'd like to play a faen with magical fey-like abilities of one sort or another. The specifics would likely depend on what others choose to play.

So, should I bother making a character for this? Is there any room left?

Vicious lies.

I sometimes play warlocks.

(^_^)

I don't necessarily mind another sorceror, but we'd need to coordinate fairly closely either to have distinct roles (blaster vs summoner for example) or perhaps to have similar roles with entertaining RP consequences (fierce rivals, perhaps...constantly keeping a running headcount to try to outdo the other).
