ALLLLrighty, I believe mr. Vrukor is now ready to rumble. I've modded my armor and my weapon from Greataxe and Banded Mail to Greataxe of the Flame (Greataxe + 1d6 fire dmg.) and Masterwork Banded Mail (i have went through and adjusted the modifiers to be less one). Correct me if I am wrong, a weapon that has magical ability is also counted as mastercrafted (adding +1 to attack) correct? Oh yeh and I took away the necessary gold as well (2000 for the greataxe and 150 for the mastercrafted armor). I added the 1k of gold for selling back the bracers of armor +1.

Vrukor, a magic weapon, armor, or shield needs a minimum of a +1 enhancement bonus before it can receive any special abilities, such as Flaming. Any magic weapon, armor, or shield must be masterwork before it receives such an enhancement bonus.
But the masterwork +1 on attack rolls does not stack with the enhancement bonus (the masterwork bonus is ignored on a magic weapon). Masterwork armor and shields have 1 point less Armor Check Penalty instead of a +1 on attack rolls, and this is retained even after the armor or shield receives an enhancement bonus.
(EDIT: Dragonwriter, just noticed you put 15,000 as the starting XP, but 10,000 is the minimum needed for 5th-level; 15,000 XP is 6th-level. So is it 5th-level with something less than 15k, or 6th-level with 15k? And please clarify the 100 XP limit on spending for magic item creation before play; if my wizard starts with the minimum XP for his level, is he getting 100 virtual XP for item creation or would his XP total be lowered appropriately?)
I still have to work up a background and description (or rather, type out and expand upon the vague background I thought up while making the character), and I'm still considering a gnomish mage of some sort that would head for the Dreamwalker prestige class from the T13K Setting Guide, but for now this is my PC's stats. I also need to pick out more gear for him, which will include some scrolls and maybe wands. When I update this in the morning or afternoon with completed data, I'll switch it over to the standard T13K character sheet format.
For new folks' reference, natives of Ceomyr generally don't use a family name, just their personal name and their guild's name, or the appelation "of Banandario" if they belong to the country's military, which is commanded by the Banandario royal family.

Yep, looks good Ark. It'll be good to see the background and description, but the numbers all look right to me.
But yes, I meant 10,000 XP, not 15,000 XP... Serve me right for not taking a good long look at the EXP per level right in the PHB... So, yes, please everyone change your current XP to 10,000 rather than 15,000. Thanks for pointing that out. And about the crafting, I meant you can use 100 of your 10,000 to craft items. So, if your wizard crafts wands or scribes scrolls, he's getting knocked down to 4th for a little while.

Okay, I need everyone who's coming for my tutorial tomorrow (Sat. the 24th) to sound off in the OOC Thread located here
This is really to let me know how many to expect...
But, yes Vrukor, Ark is right about magic items. Before you can add a special ability, you need a +1 on there, which would make it a +1 Flaming Greataxe, and raise the price to about 8,000 gp... If you just make it a +1 Greataxe for now, that will be fine, and cost the same. And, one last thing I noticed on your sheet, Vrukor... your Init should be +6, not +5. Like I said, Max Dex only applies to AC.
On people's names in Coemyr... Ark's right. Natives use their affiliations (guild or Noble house) for their last name. A guildsman would use something like "Carlson of Stonemason's Guild" or some such. Soldiers are similar, but all use "Under Banandario" (The Emperor's House). People not in guilds or companies or the army just use their parent's last name (Men using father's name and women using mother's name) like this: Voreg, son of Darson or Sallina, daughter of Nerina.
EDIT: And it looks like anyone who is interested can watch the Monday night T13K game, called "For More Than Glory." If you'd like to see a full-on game session, drop in. It's Monday night, 7 PM PST.

Okay, maybe you need to join the usergroup "T13K Player"... Look at the top of the page and click on "My Account". Look at the left, on the Control Panel. There should be a spot about halfway down that says "Group Memberships". Click that and select to Join "T13K Player". That should fix it.
EDIT: Do NOT click "Social Groups." That's just a bunch of other stuff that will only cause confusion right now...

Yeah, those things and the EXP line. I goofed and said 15,000 at 5th level... That was wrong... You're supposed to be at 10,000 and level again at 15,000 XP. Then your character is good to go.
