OK here are some notes that I wrote up for all… let me know what you think…
Blue_Genie: Kalashtar Shaper/Wilder 4
I thought about it again and I think I change my mind; you CAN combine the power points from both BUT I think your Kalashtar bonus will only apply once if we go this way. If anyone wants to play a Sorcerer/Wizard something I will work something out for them also.
Slippshade - Human? Hexblade/Sorcerer
Here is my first thought about the Artifact… I am thinking the name will be something like…Magique'ricerca, darkblade (old/middle English and Italian for Mage-Seeker or hunter). A sorcerer-warrior created the sword of old who was paranoid against other magic wielders (especially wizards) and wanted a weapon that could be used against them that would come at a surprise. Later after it creator was killed, some powerful good creature 'purge' it of its evil taint and now it is a weapon of good. It still seeks to destroy arcane users but now evil ones...
The basic sword is a (character's chose, long or bastard) adamantine +1 Magebane (from Comp Arcane; +3 enchantment and +2d6 damage vs. arcane spellcasters), Ignore Spell failure chance 5%, with AL: NG, Int: 10, Wis: 10, Cha: 16, Speech, 60ft dark vision (spot +10) and hearing (listen +10), Ego score: 18
A 2nd level Wielder can cast Detect Magic and Read Magic each 1 per day/level, increase Ignore Spell failure chance to 10%
A 4th level Wielder's gains Tenacious Spells (spells that the wielder casts are difficult to dispel, adding +6 to the DC to dispel) and Dispelling Strike (once per day, with a normal strike from Magique'ricerca, if it hits, the sword deals normal damage and the victim is subject to a targeted greater dispel magic. The dispel check is 1d20 + character level +6), increase Ignore Spell failure chance to 15%
worth way more then 100,000gp
This will be most of you 'stuff' but I might still give you a bit more (minor magic at most though)
Biblton - Fury, Warforge Fighter/Monk
I am still looking it over and checking it twice BUT things have I have agreed with…
Fury is Large Sized (-1 to AC/attack rolls, -4 to Hide checks, +4 Grapple, Increase Reach/Threat +5ft Move +5ft, Increase his Unarmed Damage by 1 dice type)
Fury has Furry or Blows and Increase Speed as if he was wearing no armor
Your magic all looks ok and I think I will be approving it all.
The Watch Lantern in his chest sounds EXCELLENT so approved also
ShaggySpellsword -Marcus Calvani, Human Cleric/Urban Ranger
Mithril chainmail shirt +2 (no-armor check pen; cost: 1,100+4,000gp)
Longbow (strength +2) +1 (cost: 600+2000gp)
Fever Iron Holy Symbol (where did you find 'Fever Iron'? just wondering)
Goggles of Minute Seeing (cost: 1,250gp)
Hmm I am still thinking about the rest..
MatrexsVigil -Enden, Human Artificer/Swashbuckler
I think I am going to give you an Air-Gallon as part of your 'stuff' it will not count as all our extra equipment for it is worth WAY more then you would normally start with it is not going to be useful in every situation. (worth well over 100,000gp)
I think YOU get to NAME it. Something cool
Also it will have a small crew, that are loyal to your. Sort of a modified version of Leadership. They will be one cohort, a Lieutenant a 4th level Expert, two Sergeants of 2nd level (one Experts and one Warrior) and the crew will be 1st level and three Experts and three Warriors (Warrior add Profession/Sailor and Use Rope to their skill list). I can write them up if you want to name them (or I can do that also, all non-Gestalt, 28 pt buy system, no extra skills or feats)
Keia - Azreal, Celestial - got your history EXCELLENT!
DEFCON_1 - Ggraggar'degrellaran. Half-Gold Dragon Sorcerer/Favored Soul
taltzu52 - old? Human Ranger/Rogue
Ferrix - Changeling rogue/psion

Kewl...
OH YEA one other thing... I am thinking about someoen being the 'leader' type. NOT going to be in charge, but the people you will be working for will come to this person first about stuff etc.
Of the character ideas so far I am leaning towards taltzu52 or ShaggySpellsword or maybe even Ferrix character but not having seen everyone still thinking...
what do you guys think?

Out of the characters so far I would pick taitzu's as the leader. I like the idea of an experienced veteran coming reluctantly back into action with a bunch of today's heroes.
Maybe he could get a BIG bonus to reputation, with both the positive and negative benefits that would entail.

All the classes in Comp Arcane are cool with except the Wun Jin (sp?) so WarMage is cool with me.
As for switching skills... hmm sure I am ok with that. One to two skills, not to many more
