In addition, remember that Towers V&V were the endpoints of a long open front between the two nations. They were both besieged plenty, but the most slaughter took part on the miles of churned up farmland in between. The Aundairian town of Ghalt to the west was always the object for Thrane, as it...

That sounds like a good plan, Jemal. Maybe we could all agree upon a certain piece of geography we operated in and what the general military situation was, and then each player can use that playground to come up with cool episodes on their own. And you don't like "Dousers"?! You're breaking my...

Regarding the 51st's background, I think it needs to have a pervasive sense of the horror of a war of attrition. That's why I mentioned the Vigilant/Valiant front. Fighting over meaningless scraps of land would provide the group with a lovely sense of bitterness and cynicism, but also with an...

Windlemas is a true-blooded scion of House Orien, and was brought up within the Transportation Guild. His last name is d'Orien, and he was born in Passage, in Aundair. His father was a house member as well, but unmarked. His mother was a Passage local, untied to the house. Windlemas is the...

Of course, that's the one "Complete" book I don't have. That sounds pretty awesome.

What's an enlightened spirit?

Konnel Kressid Here's my guy's completed stats. I applied a couple variants. First, I took the Holy Warrior variant from Complete Champion p. 49, which sacrifices my spellcasting ability to gain bonus feats at levels 4, 8, 11, and 14. Second, as per PHB II p. 53, I sacrficed my ability to call...

I'd like to put my name in, because I loves me some Eberron. I'm thinking about a human scout, dragonmarked heir of House Orien. He would have been sent to New Cyre by the higher-ranking house members in Passage to ensure that Orien interests are looked after in the small colony. With the...

If we're still part of the same company we were attached to during the war, then something referring to the Towers Vigilant and Valiant would be appropriate. A few ideas: - 51st Tower Brigadiers - 51st Airborne - 51st Ghalt Irregulars - 51st Dousing Company, or simply "The Dousers"...

About random starting level: I'm cool with dropping down to 6th, since that seems to be the average. Although it's way cool that Dr. Zombie gave me an added level because my campaign concept was chosen, the last thing I want is to create resentment. Just getting to play in a campaign of my...

Looking at the compiled list of concepts, I should probably warn everyone that even though I'm making a paladin, he will not be focusing on healing and/or buffing. I'll have Lay on Hands for a total of 21 hp a day, and that's it. I'm foreseeing a problem, because we have nary a divine caster.

Hey guys, I'm going to pull out of this game, I'm afraid. This one is moving a little too slow for my tastes, and I've got other PbPs requiring my constant attention. Looks like a fun setup, and I hope you all have a great time!

My starting level is 7. I'll be playing a male human paladin 5/gray guard 2. Stats up soon. I like the 51st. Sounds cool.

Yeah, you're right. Don't want to go too full steam. My guy's got plenty of butt-whuppin' ready for those dirty Eldeen land stealers, too! :cool:

This all depends on your allowable sources, but I'd love to play a paladin/gray guard (from Complete Scoundrel). A once idealistic holy warrior of Dol Dorn who only now, after years of unrelenting horror, realizes that in order to mete out justice, "other" methods are sometimes necessary. He...

Score one for nationalism-bred hatred! As for group history during the war, I'm assuming that, at the very least, we were members of the same platoon, regiment, company, what have you. I kind of like the notion of the various wars of attrition that took place during the Last War: Rekkenmark...

My opinion of Thrane and the Silver Flame in general went right down the drain after reading the Forge of War. I know it was mainly under the direction of one crazed Keeper, but the atrocities and religious zealotry in Thaliost really made be feel for the Aundairian cause. I just think it would...

Ghelt the Shin Ghelt kneels over the tiny body, and prods it carefully. Then -- like any self-respecting thief -- loots it mercilessly. He keeps one eye out for any too curious onlookers in the alleyway.

Thanks for the support, guys! I've always thought that the political machinations of the post-war nations is just rife with campaign ideas. But what's so cool about it is that it strays away from the typical D&D dungeon-delving, "kill, loot, repeat" that is served so excellently by the...
