I'll post a scan of the vow of poverty section up myself, so you can see the bonuses it gives. I'll add good to my alignment right away - and also, I will be dedicated to a particular divinity - Emmantiensien, the treant god. He has dominion over treants, trees, and deep/hidden magic. Seems perfect for a gardener druid, especially one with a tree focus and an association with treants. I'll make the appropriate story/background adjustments to fit into the campaign later this evening.

History:
Syfer had a normal childhood for his kind, learning the fighting tactics of his people. Shortly after becoming an adult, feeling restricted by others of his Clan, Syfer ran off to adventure the world. Taking only his tiger claws and a few of his possessions, he traveled to the closest city, in the hope of finding work. When he arrived in the city, he wandered the it looking for a place to rest. While walking, he was attacked by a drunken man, who slashed his face with a knife. In rage, Syfer killed the man and fled the city. He ran through the forest until he was forced to stop, tired from the running. Finding a safe place to sleep, Syfer passed out.

Is Emmantiensien from a specific source or something you made up?

Voadam said:

Drowned,

Shifters are LA +0 correct? That would be a 48 point buy with +2 dex, -2 int, -2 Cha, looks like you did a 40 point buy. Please break out your point buy points spent so I can check the math easier, thanks. I think you either get 8 more point buy points, a free +1 LA template, or gestalt with an npc class.

There is a house rule for alignment, good is reserved for paladins, clerics with the good domain, exalted characters, and creatures with the Good descriptor. Most everyone is neutral.

Ranger class has been house ruled up to d10 HD.

House rule that natural armor and armor do not stack but overlap.

House rule that base reflex save from class is a bonus to dex AC bonus. Note that armor max dex bonus still applies.

House rule that elven is a dialect of sylvan, not a separate language.

House rule that you must save 1 skill point or bonus language to learn dover.

DR 2/silver means that when shifted you reduce the damage done by weapons by 2 points unless they are silver weapons. It does not affect your AC. It is not a bad feat choice.

Female with a beard? Just verifying.

Not sure why you put down the endurance (level 3) and spellcasting (level 4) abilities.

2nd level character so 900 gp limit, I'm fine with you starting with less if you want though. Is the composite longbow going to have any strength adjustments? Any of the weapons masterwork?

Emmantiensien is from the old Monstrous Mythology book from AD&D 2nd. I've attached a scan of the mechanics in question... hopefully it works properly, if not I can convert it to a different file type.
