Gosh, Kerlan, that sounds like it's going to be more expensive than was my intent. Scotley, have any input on this? What I'm thinking now is to have him pay the 25gp/spell level for access, and then let LCA members do their scribing for free. Does that sound too generous to you, Scotty?

I must say that I'm not a big fan of the new format of ENWorld that apparently took effect sometime in the last 24 hours.

hehehe, yes, it does. Thanks for saying what I was thinking.

For anyone who is still having difficulty, I've discovered that all you have to do is go back to the FORUMS page after each post that you make, or almost any of the links on that top bar where FORUMS is located. You can get to Quick Links from most of those.

It's sorta back to "normal" now! You can access Quick Links from any page again! yay!!!

That's a little generous, but if KerlanRayne doesn't try to copy everything in the LCA I'm okay with it. Just pay the cost of the blank spellbooks themselves and the 25gp/spell level access.

Don't forget pens and ink, too!

This applies to Sertran Sentran the Violet, too, Nightbreeze! (Ooops, sorry!)

Still kicking some possible character ideas around... I have a couple of approval-related questions for the esteemed GMing team.

1. For the musketeerish/swashbuckler type character (human Rogue/Fighter): the Feat 'Force of Personality', from Complete Adventurer; the Feat 'Combat Acrobat' from PHB II, and the Duellist PrC from the DMG.

2. For the elven archer (Scout/Ranger): the Feat 'Quick reconnoiter' from Complete Adventurer, and the Order of the Bow Initiate PrC from Complete Warrior. If that PrC is not approved, perhaps the Arcane Archer PrC from the DMG (though this would require a substantial rebuild from my current concept- in this case probably a mountain elf Sorceror/Fighter build).

Let me know about the status of these possibilities, and I'll keep working on stuff.

Neither of those statements is a question, pathfinderq1. Are you asking which, if either, of those options we will approve? It's not going to help you narrow your choice, I'm afraid, because both of those look acceptable. To me, anyway, pending Scotley's review of the crunch stuff.

Yeah, that was mostly a pile of "is this approved" items- seeing which things are available may help me narrow my focus. While neither one is going into a PrC immediately, the guidelines note that all PrCs must be approved (even the basic DMG ones, so I figured I'd ask now rather than get frustrated in a couple of levels. And while feats are not specifically mentioned on the 'need approval' list, I figured I'd ask about the ones from non-core books, just in case. I've been rather busy, so all of this is moving very slowly- no rush.

Certain of the books from which you draw feats, classes, and so forth may not be strictly"core" books, but we have given no indications that I'm aware of that we are disallowing any contents of them. A notable exception to that will most likely be some of the more esteric and just plain ol' weird stuff in Unearthed Arcana, but you probably figured that out all by yourself.

And just to cover myself in case I have disalowed somethig previously -- I've probably slept since then, so I have no present recollection of it.

Thanks for being pro-active and asking. I am good with the order of the bow initiate or the arcane archer class as well as quick reconnoiter. I like the Duelist too. I'm not familiar with the other two feats. I'll check them out and get back to you in a bit. I expect they are fine.

Okay, both feats look good to me. I'm surprised Mowgli hasn't introduced combat acrobat to me in one of his characters. That looks right up his alley.

Time for a little house keeping. Since it seems the group is determined to continue the current adventure without pause, we need to consider introduction of additional or revised characters. I don't want to keep Lou on ice any longer than we have to and I'm sure KerlanRayne would like get started, while PathfinderQ1 and Fenris are contemplating new characters.

PathfinderQ1 how soon do you expect to have a revised character ready? I would prefer to wrap up all the loose ends at once.

Both concepts are about set, in terms of mechanics- I just have to find enough time to type them up, and finish the background and related fluff. The main problem is that my free time is rather short this week, and I'm a terribly slow typist. I ought to have a finished product by sometime this weekend, but probably not before that.

Which way are you leaning now, pq1, if I may ask? Meaning which character, of course.

I'm leaning towards the elven scout/ranger archer character right now. With Darius, Soulfetter, Alarion, and (presumably) Raul we are pretty stacked for melee characters. We are much less fixed for ranged combat.

Still, I'd hate to see you give up your first choice for nothing. We, or at least I, haven't seen or heard anything else about that other similar character....
