[QUOTE="Mal Malenkirk, post: 4532577, member: 834"] Yes I am. Was about to email you. I'm thinking 5 players sounds about right. I want the fights to be tough and smaller team increases the volatility. In a small party, 1 PC goes down and you are on the highway to TPK town. PC creation rules; 22 CP, as per PHB, level 6 Any core PHB race + Drow. Classes : Any Core PHB + Sword Mage + Barbarian + Dark Pact warlock. I'm a bit iffy about the darkspiral aura pact power. It seems very powerful. But I can see how it is easy to neuter and the Dark Pact at will is IMO the weakest of the lot and since it's a package deal, I guess it's all right. The barbarian is still being playtested so I'm wary that it has too many kinks but I'm willing to gamble. --- Basic Setting The City State of Undhil is very multicultural, with humans being the dominant race at about a fifth of the population. It is a large port city, about 300,000 strong plus twice as many in the countryside. Its wealth comes primarily from productive diamond mine, preferred trading partner status with the Eladrin island kingdom of Silverif and the dwarven nation of Brokhelm. It used to be a minor monarchy but waves of refugees from a great war overran it two centuries ago. Great leaders and philosophers saved the kingdom from bloody civil war and turned it into a republic with a fairly progressive charter of rights. In the past century, its economy has known greater growth than any in the known world. It has enemies everywhere, though. Silverif can only be relied on for commerce, Brokhelm is the republic's only solid ally. To the East is the totalitarian Empire of Karth who longs to swallow the republic, to the south are hordes of humanoids and underneath are the forces of the underdark. From within, venal noble who wish a return to the ancien regime are plotting against the republic. The churches of Banes and Asmodeus have also been outlawed and are constant threats. There you go. Generic but functional. Players can invent details about the culture of their PCs as they see fit. [/QUOTE]
