and incaase you have not seen it, invisiblecastle.com is the dice roller used here.
I'm new to this site and to D&D, but was interesting in getting started here to get more of a feel for D&D, as well as to pass the time. When looking at the stickies I was directed to, I came across a few questions:
When I post my character to be approved, do I Email ALL of the judges about my character? Or do I pick a few at random?
Also, whenever ANYTHING about my character changes on my character sheet, do I email judges again to reapprove, or does this only occur upon levelling up?
Besides the SRD and homebrew content, what source materials are available?(And if there are any online sources I could view, directions to them would be awesome)
Edit: Also, how do I alter my information to make my email visible so that I may begin my efforts to make a character? Or did I already do that?
.
I'm not sure what you mean by that. You don't need to change any settings to post a character. You just post to the Character thread, and then email the character judges to take it from there.
The problem here is that Private Messages aren't readily available to all board members, unfortunately. IIRC, currently board members that aren't community supporters can only PM moderators.I didn't quite understand why the PM system couldn't be used, especially in my situation as it's easier for me to check the PM box here than use my email(~kicks Outlook Express~) and I check my PM's on forums more than my emails anyway, but I wanted to follow the rules/guides so I could participate without being a headache.
Another question, this time about prestige classes:
I'm thinking this is a no, but in the hypertext D20 SRD, I saw a variant rule about prestige classes regarding In Character assessments rather than statistical values. Is this possible? If not, could the situation be played once the player meets the right requirements? (I dislike the discontinuity of just 'levelling into' a new class without playing out how it happened)
Are you thinking of Test-based prerequisites That's not a LEW rule, and while you can always propose it, I'd oppose it, because I think less-rigorously defined prerequisites don't work well in a campaign that doesn't have a single absolute DM authority.
However, if your character is about to meet the prerequisites for some PrC, and you'd like to role-play in-character qualification, you can always post a request for a DM to design and run a vignette for that. Nobody's obliged to do that, but we have had some adventures designed to fit PCs character development plans before.
What Racial Paragon classes from the Variant Rules in the SRD are available, besides human and half-elf? The Wiki didn't explain, and the class starting scores simply listed Paragon (Other). Is it all of them?
Also, what is the maximum level achievable in EN-worlds? I'd like to know that before I make a complex build strategy only to discover I can't achieve it. I do realize that higher level builds would likely take years to achieve though.
