I'm going to withdraw from consideration - I'm not feeling up to posting several times a day for a character I'm not really feeling. :)

Schmoe Don't worry, you will be the father figure that Samara never had growing up. It helps that you're a soldier and her mom was a Soldier by trade... ^_^

Samara Renae - PP 14 - PI 16 - Init +4 Samara quietly assesses each person as they introduce themselves. Courage and nobility indeed, Samara rolls her eyes at Arion. And seeker of rare antiquities? A thief is a thief, and one who speaks in half-truths is a despicable one. Samara is first...

Revenant. It oozes flavor.

It could be a fun treat to take ONLY attack cantrips - have a kaleidoscope of ranged damage attacks of varying types and effects. Be your own rainbow laser! I build more for fun than efficiency, though.

Back in my 2e FR days, using a cannon and a crap-ton of on-hand cheap gems was one effective way of dealing with a Dragon.

Sentient/possessed axe that can be hurled (like a Dwarven Thrower) and generate warding wind? Sign me up. If your player wants anything more than that, they're greedy. ;)

Well, you said 'camp'... I'm actually surprised no one's jumped on an Ash (Evil Dead etc.) clone yet. It was my second pick, though, assuming there was a 'need' for a second meat-shield. You know, the way the characters are stacking up, it sort of remind me of the board game "Betrayal at House...

Okay, I don't have my PHB in front of me, so I'm going to just throw out an idea and see how it goes. "That creepy child with all the scary mind powers" - Great Old One Warlock 3, Pact of the Book. Young human girl, 15 (I think is minimum human age?) Speaks in a deadpan voice, appears to have...

Just wanted to roll in and comment that I've run both Isle of Dread (cut my DM teeth on it, actually, back in '87) and The Lost City. Both are very meaty with tons of delicious action/adventure shenanigans. I'd throw a character in for this, but I've already got one PbP on the go and waiting...

Hoo hoo! - Common, Elven, Dwarven [via Race] - Giant, Orcish [via Knowledge domain] - Baklunish, Old Oeridian [via Acolyte] Am I the only person who gets excited about Languages? :)

Back in my 2e days, I played a polymorphed Half-Elven Bard once. Some nasty wizard changed him into a snake. His best bud was also changed into a frog. That was a fun few days. :3

Also, being a seasoned vet, "the horror" of the Underdark has lost some of its menace over time. That said, my tough-as-nails Halfling Rambo tunnelrat may have been dealing with goblins and the like, but will have never been THIS DEEP into underground territory. Lucky for the Drow... :D

Samara Renae - PP 14 - Init +4 Samara's eyes narrow as Arion pastes a false smile upon his honeyed words (Passive Perception 14). Just as I thought, another shyster. Typical Elven buffoonery. "Your concern is noted, stranger, but I feel you lact conviction in your words, and therefore, your...

Drow Bards... Yup. ;)

That said, I'm getting a super-feel for an underground-themed Halfling Ranger, borrowing (stealing) the Tunnelrat Fighter kit from 2e's Complete Book of Gnomes & Halflings: Underdark Rambo. But short. :)

@airwalkrr - I'm finding a lot of my skills overlap between Cleric, Knowledge focus and Acolyte. Would you agree that trading Acolyte's "Insight" for "investigation" would apply, given that I'm a follower of Fharlanghn? I'm trying to shore up my sheet today and will create it assuming you say...

Samara Renae - PP 16 - Init +4 The smell of booze and fetid breath assaults and offends Samara's senses as she enters the crowded Green Dragon Inn. She wrinkles her freckled nose and squints as she tries to take in the entire scene. Ugh. It seems my fellow acolytes were right. This place is...

@Zansy No worries. You mentioned that Bards were out of your comfort zone and I was all "You don't even KNOW, maaaan! Bards rock on toast with Fluff AND Nutella!" ^_^ To further that sentiment, I was lauding the bard's many fantastic abilities to try and show you that you have literally...

Zansy Again, you're missing the point. Bard is likely comparable to "tier 1" now - MAYBE "tier 2". Once you get to 3rd, you can choose to go down one of two paths - Lorebard, which allows you to poach spells from any class (and often earlier than said class gets it themselves), or Skald, which...
