So I'm reading the character creation rules again, and now I gotta question.

4d6? Do you take the best 3 of the 4 or are scores of 24 (all sixes) possible?

Golem rolled 13 11 14 10 12 6 for me, so that'll be 18 14 13 12 11 10.

With one high score and the rest low I'm highly considering going for a prime spellcaster/manifester. Thought that's what the rest of the 2nd group is thinking off too. Hmm... Oh wait, we're with 5, so it's not too shaggy if Zerth and I double on the arcane level. If everything stays as is, I think I'll go for Grey Elf Conjurer. Mithreandir, what's your thought on Rapid Summoning and Enhanced Summoning from the Specialist variants?

Appearance: Noran's hair usually garners the most immediate attention. His head and beard has been put into thin braids, each ending in a different colored bead. These braids bounce and sway when Noran, who seems quite nimble for a dwarf, bursts into action. He wears a visible suit of chainmail and carries around a long quarterstaff carved with dwarven runes. Despite the martial apparel, Noran is generally appears to be an open, happy person, as demonstrated by his somewhat goofy-looking and toothy grin.

Personality: Noran is a happy fellow, ready to meet everyone and ask questions about their homes or where they've been. This general inquisitive nature can get on some people's nerves, but compared to the general cold reserve of most dwarves, Noran is a pleasant surprise. The only time you will catch Noran in a bad mood is if he's been holed up in some town or other location for too long, which in Noran's case usually means a few days.

Background: Noran Gurdog was born from a family of warriors. His father and mother had both helped defend their mountain home from orc invasion. Their uncanny ability to cleave off orc heads garnered them much respect from their clan and community. When they discovered that their only son also exelled at martial combat, it made their already pleasant lives only happeir. The honor of their family would live on.

But Noran was a dreamer. He dreamed of lands far off. Cities so real he could touch. He wanted to travel, to see the world, meet different races. His parents would have none of such foolishness, but Noran kept dreaming. It got to such a point that Noran would leave his home for a week or two without warning just to be outside. Noran's parents responded quickly to this behavior. Noran was soon to be commissioned into the community military as soon as possible.

With less than a week left, Noran was overcome with not just day dreams, but real dreams of a bearded human with a staff, leading him from his home. A discussion with a more pious friend revealed the identity of the dream character as Fharlanghn, the god of roads.

Noran new this was a sign, and one night, while his parents were asleep, he did the most foolish thing of his life. He left home. He dishonored his clan and his parents, but he knew that he was being called to a higher purpose. He would be the one to foster a new, stronger relationship between his people and those around them. All that was left for him to do was prove he was right.

Thels, go ahead and make a primary arcane caster. I'm not sure, if I'll go for the Eldritch Knight. We don't have any pure melee types yet, so I might stay as a paladin or pick up some other more melee-oriented PrC later on.

Please do let mer know of any future PrC that you may want to join so I can incorporate their orginizations into the game. I'm not going to make them all available... or at least imediately available, but would like to give those characters who want one to have at least the chance to learn of them so it's not out of character for rhem to at least seek them out.

I hope this made sense... I'm still trying to wake up (long night).

I got your meaning, Mithreander, no worries. :)

Actually one PrC, which I'm considering is the Kensai from the Complete Warrior. If you don't have the book, just give me your email and I'll post the info to you for approval.
