This is interesting, but it's hard to come up with a character concept without even a level guide. If I want to make a thief from Minas Tirith, should he be a small-time hustler or a master cat burglar able to penetrate the home of the Steward himself? (Not that I'm actually interested in such...

Same here. PbP is slow enough without waiting for people to coordinate their rolls.

Raise Dead and its ilk aren't allowed in my game, for flavor reasons (lots of ways to avoid death to compensate). None of my players has mentioned Wraithstrike, but I'm ready with the "No" hammer :) I am avoiding the older Polymorph-flavored spells in favor of the newer, more specific ones.

"That makes sense," Jarek agrees. After a pause says, "Maybe the best thing is to set one spy to catch another. Two of our friends are half-orcs. Maybe they could try to catch your spies."

Jarek dismounts and nods to the sheriff. He places his hand on his breast and says, "I'm Jarek. My friend here is Collan, a traveling priest of Pelor. There are others with us, but they are finding us lodgings." As they follow the sheriff he asks, "Have your folk had much trouble with...

Jarek shakes his head as the elf rides past. "Reminds me more of my brother every day," he mutters under his breath. He pats his horse on its massive neck and says, "Let's go." He rides after Collan, looking around for an inn, or a likely-looking local to ask about one.

I'm thinking "not dwarves". :)

Ha! First IC post! :) I'm looking forward to this. Should be fun.

Jarek pauses and surveys the town from atop his massive horse. He absently buffs a smudge from his breastplate while looking over the town's defenses. "Well, I suppose we should find an inn first off," he observes. "Someplace with good stables and decent food, if we can find it."

4E's like Saga But Saga is 4E too Which Solo is meant?

Well, call me a heretic, but I liked several of these. Specifically: Ghost Rider - Lots of fun, and with no ambitions to be anything more than it was. The Shadow - For the simple fact that they went with an unlikable hero, and (I think) pulled off the mood and feel quite well. Tank Girl -...

I prefer that PCs have the option of full 3.5 skill points, but use a set of house-rules very similar to The Gneech's list. I understand the idea behind the Pathfinder system (and this is what I do with NPCs) but I think it needs some brushing up to be any easier to use than the regular 3.5.

I've posted to the Rogues Gallery. I also adjusted my stats a little. I dropped Jarek's Int to 8 (and gave up a trained skill) and raised his Con to 14 (improving Hit Points and Fort save accordingly). If I'm going to be drawing attacks with my Knight's Challenge all the time, I better be...

Jarek - Champion of Pelor Jarek Champion of Pelor Male Human Paladin 5 Str 16 (+3) Dex 10 (+0) Con 14 (+2) Int 8 (-1) Wis 10 (+0) Cha 16 (+3) Note that 4th-level stat bump went to Charisma Hit Dice: 5d10+5 (40 HP) AC: 22 (+9 armor, +3 Shield) Flatfooted 22, touch 10 Armor check penalty -6...

Looking good! Of course, I don't really have any complaints about the current version, but I'm sure there are very good technical reasons for switching.

D'oh! Thanks. Need to boost my damage output somehow... Edit: Ok, I've taken Cleave instead of Weapon Specialization (adjusted damage accordingly) and added Knowledge - Nobility and Royalty as a trained skill. Obviously I'm picturing Jarek as someone with a noble background. Probably a...

Jarek - Champion of Pelor Here's my initial character write-up. Let me know if it looks right. Jarek Champion of Pelor Male Human Paladin 5 Str 16 (+3) Dex 10 (+0) Con 12 (+1) Int 10 (+0) Wis 10 (+0) Cha 16 (+3) Note that 4th-level stat bump went to Charisma Hit Dice: 5d10+5 (35 HP) AC: 22...

Sweet! And undead generally have lousy Fort saves, too. If you're using the stock gods I'll use Pelor. "Cringe before the holy radiance of Pelor!" and all that. :)

Fair enough. One holy smiter coming up!

If it were me, I'd go for something with a small LA (Necropolitan, perhaps) and grab those extra class levels. The 600 years for your enemies to either die off or forget about you is just a bonus! :)
