Seems you're filling up quite fast. Still if you don't mind the extra load I'd be happy to join.
I'll get to brainstorming a concept, right now I'm veering towards wizard.

Puttering around last night after everyone left I started sketching out a Neanderthal Cleric with preferably the domains of Windstorm and Renewal (Spell Compendium). I'm not dead-set on the whole concept yet, but that's mostly because there's not a whole lot on Neanderthals in your setting accounts. You seem to imply that your Neanderthals are desert-based rather than creatures of the icy cold from Frostburn, so I was going for something like a "desert-winds-of-renewal/desert-storms" motif. Less of a snarling, menacing caveman and more like a noble dinosaur-riding savage sans the dinosaur? Add in Endurance for the feat (Finally a reason to take Endurance besides PrC prereqs, yay!) and you'd get a priest that's truly hard to sling weather at. Not having many skill points, everything would pretty much be going into Religion and Profession (probably cooking), making him/her something like:
"The great wind sweeps low from the mountains, through the throats of the gods and into The Land. Where it howls it ravages, and where it whispers it builds castles of stone from the floor of the desert. You may hide from it, but you shall die from lack of it. This is the power of the holy winds, to carry rain and promise water, to judge upon the bleached bones of the unworthy and discard them beneath the sand. You would do well to listen to me, outlander, as we travel here.
Would you like fries with that? Move to the end of the line and hand the tall man your money. Enjoy your meal."

Hi. This is my first Play by Post game, and I'd like to play a human telepath using the SRD. If you decide no psi, then a sorceror. May I join?

Ooh, a few things to reply to:
Paranoia833, WarlockLord -- By all means, I'd like to see your character concepts. This isn't a first-come, first-served game, so I can't guarantee anyone a spot yet, but by the same token you don't have to worry about it being filled right now.
WarlockLord -- If you don't mind me relying on (and allowing) solely SRD psionics, I have nothing against it.
James Heard -- When I was reading through the Neanderthal entry in Frostburn, it struck me that they're listed as being immune to both extreme cold and extreme heat; as a consequence, Neanderthals in this game can be found both in the desert and in the cold mountain reaches.
fenixdown -- I'll try to get a list up tomorrow morning.

WarlockLord-
I don't want to be intrusive or nitpicky, but in your ability scores, you only used a 24 Point Buy, so if you wanted, you're entitled to 4 more points, as per Kafkonia's ruleset.
James-
My character concept was leaning toward someone with an underlying (and possible rather distasteful actions in the adventuring future) disdain for Neanderthals. If both characters are accepted, I just wanted to preemptively say no hard feelings
Maybe he could even persuade your character to join in the fun!
Kafkonia-
I have my Urban Ranger statted up, but I don't have any descriptions or backgrounds written up as of yet. I'll post the basics now so you can get back to me about specifics. Later on (hopefully tonight) I'll get you the rest of his oh so pleasant background. Warning, though, I am planning on making him LE, but not one of those super-villain types, just a guy who "plays by the rules but without mercy or compassion" as per our PHB. More will be revealed with the description, personality, and background.

Don't worry, if your character is a racist then he just won't get any healing from my cleric. No problem. I hear that chicks dig scars.

Scars like emotional scars from the past unhinging a burning racism? I think that's just called pouting, and I don't think chicks dig those. But don't worry, he just sneaks up on your lot, knocks 'em out, and sells 'em into the illegal slave market. Thems make good manual laborers
