[QUOTE="Nonlethal Force, post: 2715067, member: 35788"] [U]A note on Cloistered Cleric[/U]: I don't remember cloistered cleric in the sources I listed. It is also morning and I am still sleepy, so I could be screwed up. But if not, I am going to nix the cloistered cleric route. Sorry. [U]A note on Vow of Peace:[/U] I will not nix this idea, JohnnyFive, but I think your other idea about the Church Inquisition PrC fits better with the party and my thoughts on the upcoming game as a DM. I listed that one below, but I will not nix the Vow of Peace. It just will be difficult for you if you choose it. [U]Note to doghead:[/U] I did not include you on the list because it seemed like you were more interested in a wilderness game. If that is an error, please accept my apologies and let me know. Okay, so - list of potential characters: Eonthar - Unknown/unknown but interest expressed Ferrix - Female unknown/Cleric of Pelor Engrishonly - Unknown/"Zealot-type" Eluvan - Unknown/Cleric OR Unknown/Ranger-Ranger (PHB Races all accepted as printed in PHB) Johnnyfive - Aetos/Paladin-Rogue (Headed for Shadowbane Inquisitor) Bront - Bous/Monk (VoP approved - especially given the race it makes sense) Fenris - Unknown/Unknown Okay, that gives 7, so I am going to oficially close the openings. Noting a lack of someone desiring to DM, I'll take it so we move forward. We'll go with the homebrew world. I'll post much more info later in about 5-6 hours when I get back from work. For now, though, we have work to do regarding race/class of the characters. First question first - we need to settle on a god. I haven't heard any objections to Pelor, but now is the time to speak.

I will state that for the purpose of this game, we should all settle on one. [Oh, list is combined from PHB, CD, XPH, and BoED - Only LG and NG deities presented] Barring no objections, Pelor it is. If there are objections, as I said before now is the time to speak. Second question is on character starting level/wealth. I've heard no objections to 4, so let's go with that.
