How much does it cost to purchase a feat? Katherine will probably hang on to her experience, but you never know . . .

Sounds good, but we won't really be the same "rank" in the church either, LOL. Vadric is the Military Attache to the Patriarch of Eastland, and a Knight of the Light. As such, he falls somewhere outside the traditional hierarchy of both the Church and the Knights.
On that nore, have you had a chance to read through JA's crazy 35 page campaign document yet? LOL.
No, I haven't read that one yet. Ok, Vadric is a lone "Clerical World Unto Himself!" That's cool too. I tend to favor Saints Pelor and Olidammara. Tomatino is a healer, but he's got that mischievous side, too.

JA you did say 12k xp for Southern Operatives, right?

"MORE OR LESS" What does that mean?? It's in Gray??

OHHHHHHH, I gotcha now! It means that it's all spelled out right there in black and white, EXCEPT for the parts that you are deliberately misleading us about!

Were you following The Four Lands during Part I? These mighty adventurers in the service of the Light have now taken up arms alongside accursed elves, and one of their party is an elder druid. Start with post 1992 and read about the party almost came to blows over the appearance of the elf Silverwood... Note the posts at 2023-2033 about how the party is all now subject to charges of heresy, etc. An upstanding member of the Society for the Preservation of the Faith is just what this party needs!! If you're up to role-playing it....

Okay, if you say so. My character will have just ended a long pilgrimage and will be out of touch with such things, which may well be how he manages to tolerate you lot. Will that work, JA? (I'd rather not corrupt my "innocence" with reading all of your sordid past, Lou. I prefer to just accept you for who you are now. )

Great! Now I've just got to figure out my character. Oh, wait! I already suggested Thomas ("Tomatino") be a cleric of the Light, and Rhun thinks I need to be the primary party medic also, which is great with me. Does that also work for you, JA?

I don't have 68pager either *whine*

Leif: Maybe you could try a Healer instead of Cleric? OR be cloistered cleric variant? Of course there is that nasty Inquisitor PrC


JA, how do I go about leveling Arrwuh as cohort. Do I advance him as a creature (going to 10HD and becoming large) or I get him normal 9HD and get him character levels?

Does Vorian receive/discovers etc new rune(s)?
With CON 18 he gets access to 1 4th level rune
And with good options like stoneskin, polymorph, divine power and spike stones it's hard choice to make...

Also, how do I go about leveling dead character (Andor Anande de Andrade, Pelor's flame and scourge of undead everywhere (not that he encountered any up to now :P)

That's all we need is an Inquisitor analyzing every decision Vadric makes!

I had a player in a game that played an Archivist that was a healer, too. So there are actually lots of options if you want to play a healing type.

The 68 pager is still a work in process.....i am making sure it all ties together

Neuroitc - adavance him as a monster..but he is going to be more or less obsolete as the enemies your going to be dealing with are going to be able to take himout easily..so be very careful how you use him....

If you moved up a level and are entitled to one then you get the ruin

go ahead and level andor up but only 1 level

Leif;;;that works

1. Half-elf with the Human Heritage feat (treated as human) Evoker 3/Favored Soul 3 (Pelor?/Heironeous?)/Mystic Theurge 6, recently left elven lands to return to land of her mother, who was kidnapped years ago.

2. Half-elf with the Human Heritage feat (treated as human) Warmage 3/Favored Soul 3 (Hestia?)/Mystic Theurge 6, recently left elven lands to return to land of her mother, who was kidnapped years ago.

3. Human Warmage 3/Favored Soul 3 (Athena?)/Mystic Theurge 6, caravan guard who discovered she was blessed of ____. After training in the church, she became a bodyguard of some lesser Bishop, often disguised as a nun.

4. Human Rogue 12, social skill-monkey, bodyguard of some lesser Bishop.

5. Human Rogue 10/Thief-Acrobat 2, social skill-monkey, bodyguard of some lesser Bishop.

6. Human monk 5/tattooed monk 7 (crab DR8/magic, crane imm dis/poison/age, ocean no eat/sleep, phoenix SR 22), bodyguard of some Archbishop. EDIT: Note Monk 7/ TM 5 might make more sense.

I admit to having been thinking about this too much...

Lou

1 and 2 are out for obvious reasons elves dont breed with humanscum

3 and 6 are diverse in this world you need to focus heavily in one area or yoru not going to have anythin really effective against some of the more powerful creatures...

that leaves4 and 5 and i would say go with the one you like the most..

or pick a class that will allow you to easily switch to a prestiage class...but please keep it realively simple
