Classless BESM d20 Game [Closed] (Calling Kyloss, Candide and rangerjohn)

No limits on character concepts, backgrounds,power sources etc. (Apart from my ability to use Veto power.)

The Rules:
Anime d20 Revised with 3.5e Rules, all errata is used.
The optional classless rules available on the Eden Website and in d20 BESM revised will be used.
The Own a Big Mecha ability will use the variant mecha rules presented in d20 Mecha. (If you have BESM Tri-Stat books with powers you find interesting that are not converted to d20 talk to me, ditto if you have a concept that is not statted anywhere.)

50 CP (Base)
120 CP (Pseudo-level)
Total: 170 CP

This means you have an ECL of 12, with 50 base points (If you wish you may take standard d20 anime classes for up to 12 levels, except the adventurer (who'd be outdone by the classless builds anyway), or the d20 anime versions of D&D spellcasters (because I don't want to deal with multiple magic systems)).
In addition the ECL of 12 means that like a standard 12th level character you get feats for level 1,3,6,9,12 and 3 level up points for abilities. You may trade in each feat for 2 CP if you wish, likewise you may trade in 2 level points for 1 CP.
If you take a standard d20 BESM class or d20 anime version of a D&D class you may trade out class features for the appropriate number of CP if so you wish.


First HD is maximised, all others are rolled or take average (average is unrounded so 12d4 hp will be 1d4 (4) + 11d4(11x2.5=27.5) = 31.5 rounded to 32).

You may choose Unlimited Dynamic Sorcery if you wish at the standard 20 CP/rank, standard Dynamic Sorcery is also available.

Your highest mental stat is used to calculate your energy points bonus.

I'll work out the game setting and general plot after I see characters. I will select the 4 concepts I like best/ gel together best.

As always I can usually be found on IRC on Psionics.net on my channel #IR.

To access the channel you can either use the ENWorld Java client and after being connected to #dnd3e type /join #IR or you can use Mirc, use the Psionics.Net server and again use /join #IR . There as here I use the nick Kalanyr.

I can also be contacted on any of the numerous instant messager services in my profile and also at kalanyr@gmail.com .

Edit- Put note in topic, in case extreme freeformness was scary people away.

Well, you can count me in, I've got a mech pilot in mind if you think you can come up with something that'll work for that.

This looks pretty good, I'd like to join but I'd like to see the flavour of the other characters before I plan what to with mine. If there's a mecha theme I think I'll use some kind of pilot/journalist style character.

Yes, I should have mentioned that, please do a concept/general outline for your character as a priority over a hard build, if you are more comfortably building a character mechanically and working from that for a personality (like me), an outline of the mechanics you desire to use and the traits that most likely spring from that is fine.

As an added note you do not have to feel bound by the themes of any previously posted character(s). I'll handle integration at the end, at most I'll require minor background changes (additions instead of changes or removal where possible) for this.

Basically my goal is to let you play the character you want. Though I'd really prefer to avoid characters with a psychopathic inability to work with others in a productive manner.

As always, I'm interested. What's your choice of ruling about BAB/AC/combat skills? and will you use XP or give us CP rewards?

Feeding myself my own thigh here, but I'd be willing to sign up. I'll have to think of a character concept, but with my mind, I should have one by tomorrow.

For those with classes its just the standard class BAB, for classless use Attack Combat Mastery, Weapon Skills and Weapon Defence Skills are available and stack with Abilities Modifiers, after they've (the Skills) been divided appropriately.

Oops forgot to answer this earlier:
I'll award CP, if people want to use classes they can trade 10 CP for a class level, likewise every 40 CP you'll get an extra stat point and every 30 CP you'll get an extra feat

And kick/bump.

Here's a pic of my char, Experiment 5PRK13-0186 (Sparky)

Is he as strong as he looks? Or do his powers derive from his name. I.e does he shoot lightning? Or some combination of the two? I'm not asking for an exact build, just something where would wouldn't step on each others toes.
