[QUOTE="BSF, post: 2506703, member: 13098"] [b]Campaign Mechanics[/b] [i] [center][b]The Agents of the Gods[/b][/center] Here is the plan. Each of you that wishes to play, must design a suitable PC. These need not strictly be angels, but each PC must be a non-native good-aligned outsider that is serving a good god. You are familiar with the major campaign gods, but if you wish to serve a lesser god, feel free to pitch me the idea for a deity of your choice. Each PC must also have LA 4+. This can come from a direct template, a template class, or creature abilities. Keep in mind that some creatures have HD as well as LA. If you choose one of these creatures, you must take the HD as well as the LA. The total ECL after LA, creature HD and class levels are tabulated should be 13th level. I encourage you to investigate a variety of sources, especially [b]Anger of Angels[/b]. The Book of Hallowed Might and the Book of Exalted Deeds are very good sources for you to investigate as well. If you have another source you would like to use, please ask me if it is acceptable. Stats will be handled with 32 point buy. Stats max out at 18 before racial and template bonuses are applied. PC equipment will be based on the wealth guidelines and will be refreshed at each level. Wealth is set at your ECL -3. So you will begin the campaign with equipment equivelant to a 10th level character. In this case, that is [b]49,000 gp[/b]. This represents part of the resources your patrons have donated for your use. Remember that you are, essentially, playing an angel of a good god. Each PC must begin with a good alignment with a value of at least 4. Dropping below that value probably means you are sliding down the road to becoming a Fallen Angel. Just to refresh your memory on the alignment scale:[/i] Good 1 Doesn’t like to see bad things happen to others 2 Helps others occasionally, particularly friends 3 Willing to help strangers on occasion 5 Gives of himself to help others, whether it be time, money, possessions, or something else 7 Takes concepts like purity, innocence, and other higher principles very seriously 8 Would sacrifice anything, even his life, for others in a heartbeat 9 Refuses to harm anything or anyone, even if it brings misfortune or death on himself [i] Remember that as an Outsider, Raise Dead and Resurrection do not work on you. Only True Resurrection will work. However, an angel with a [u]True Vessel[/u] can be killed and then recovered. If you are worried about death, I suggest you consider taking the [u]Extra True Vessel[/u] feat in Anger of Angels. All PCs must be approved and finalized before you can begin play. Creating a higher level PC is complicated. Choosing non-standard races and using LA makes this process even more complicated. If you wish to speed up my approval process, I encourage you to break out your PC HD by HD to show exactly how you created the character.
