You need to pick out a starting feat; Dual Wield and Hand to Hand are just monkish bonus feats in EQ.  And list your specific proficiencies from the class; simple and martial one-hand blunt, two-hand blunt, hand-to-hand, and throwing weapon proficiencies.You have 4 skill points left to spend, from your Intelligence bonus.  And Survival should be switched back to Wilderness Lore for Raska.  For reference, the EQ rules for languages would apply to Raska, so you have 4 ranks each in Common and Iksar (I know they're listed further up on the sheet, though); this isn't particularly relevant right now, but later on any further languages Raska learns will use the EQPRG Language skill rules, not the 3.5 Speak Language skill.Your Possessions are listed incorrectly......you replaced the two-handed hammer with a greatclub, and removed 5 javelins, according to your Combat Gear line.  And you've got a sling and 20 bullets listed in Possessions but not in Combat Gear.  Also, why carry both a club and a nunchaku?  The nunchaku is just dead weight and 2 GP that could be spent on other things (your unarmed strikes already use the Quick Delay, and will deal 1d4 damage at 2nd-level when you get Improved Hand to Hand as a bonus feat).  No need to list a javelin quiver, BTW.In any case, with the equipment changes, you have 1 GP and 4 SP left to spend (or 3 GP and 4 SP if you ditch the nunchaku, or 3 GP and 6 SP if you ditch both the nunchaku and the sling bullets).  You'll probably want a bit more food and water from the extra coinage, and maybe a bedroll and/or some more sling bullets if you're keeping the sling for ranged combat (in which case, add it to your combat gear and attack rolls up above, as well).  Note that each waterskin only holds half a day's worth of water.Also, you need to include the weight of your carried gear, and your current, light, medium, and heavy load values.  Though I'm sure mighty Raska can haul plenty more than he has on him right now, it'll be helpful for me to reference later when he might be hauling bulky supplies or whatnot around.There was no need to list a starting gold link; as mentioned in the first post, you all have the maximum starting gold allowed for your classes at 1st-level, which is 20 GP for the monk.Anyway, Mystic Strike only counts your unarmed strikes as magical at 1st-level if wearing magic gloves (or magic gauntlets, same thing).  So there's a slight tweak needed to that entry on the sheet.  And Infravision doesn't work like low-light vision; it's actual infrared-spectrum vision, seeing heat as light (generally from warm creatures and objects).  For reference, iksar aren't warm-blooded, so Raska doesn't shed his own infrared light like a torch to Infravision; though I'd say it's equivalent to a candle in Infravision, at least, since he does have some body heat nonetheless.  Iksar are either cold-blooded or at least lukewarm-blooded (a cross/middle-ground between warm and cold blooded, as dinosaurs are now theorized to have been).That's all for Raska's review.  Just some minor tweaks to be made.</blockquote>
