dwarf Fighter ?
Human Wizard
Dragonborn paladin
Half-Elf Cleric

I Need at least one more player but two would be as welcome. Really need a Rogue and a Ranger to complete the partyy.

So lets togther and have some fun.
I'd be interested in playing. I would offer to play a Warlock instead of a Ranger (since Warlocks and Rangers kinda has the same role as ranged striker). Otherwise I could probably whip up a Rogue or a Ranger.

If someone else is gonna be a rogue, I'll stay as the dwarf fighter. I want to tweek my charcter a little bit though. I would like to bass my character off of Gotrek from the Warhammer novels, so if there is any kind of Berserker type sub-class I can use, thats how I'll role.

There is no 4e class or paragon path similar to the Barbarian/berserker type unfortunately.

Look at this article:
http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/4dnd/20080613a

Perhaps you and your DM can work something out.
Would love to ply the Felix (Human Rogue) to your character, but I seem to be a little bit late.

I am up to any of them in the 4E books, due to that we have a mixture of custom and pre-gen characters.I would say as long as everything isn't 16's or 18's you are fine. I just lent my players handbook to one of our players here at work for the game.

Imrahil, Eladrin Rogue

Ok, got a character up. The concept is still.. uh.. vague, as there's yet little background to work with. This can easily be changed obviously.

Imrahil
Imrahil is a slender, athletic Eladrin, comfortable in the shadows of the world as in the twilight of the Feywild. He wears his fair hair unusually short for an Eladrin, accentuating his hawkish features. A faint white vertical scar marres his fine Eladrin features. His blue-and-silver eyes usually shine with eager anticipation. Imrahil carries a set of razorsharp eladrin-crafted blades in different sizes, all polished to a shine. His clothing and gear are plain, if expertly crafted and meticulously cared for.

Background
Banished on behalf of a mighty ghaele's anger, who Imrahil offended, he has turned his back on the feywild and travels this world as a mercenary. Though riches of this profession appeal to him, Imrahil's main ambition is to prove wrong, or possible avenge his exile by hohning his skills, seek fame and return to the feywild in glory.

Hi Steve, I intended to keep the players at six, but if you are willing to play a ranger I will allow a seventh player.
