I am looking towards a bard/ ranger or something along those lines. I would like to know a little about this region, climate, political situation, etc. I am looking forward to making my character soon

I would also like to get a grasp on the moral disposition of the group. Do we follow a cause ar just want to get rich and famous. I can go either way.

it's always interesting to have a slight mix in the party morally I find, a party that is all gung-ho for the greater good just doesn't have as interesting a dynamic as one where each member has a slightly different goal.

How do we decide starting HP? Do we get the maximum possible?
Where can I find a table for starting gold, I've looked all over the SRD and just can't find it...

As stated above, starting hit points are maximum. Hit points gained from leveling are 3/4ths of the hit die. That is 3 for a d4, 4.5 for a d6, 6 for a d8, 7.5 for a d10, and 9 for a d12. You always truncate (round down) the hp score for game purposes, but when you level up the .5 + .5 gives you an extra hp every other level if your a single class character.

Starting gold is the same in 3.0 and 3.5, so either players handbook should suffice. I don't have mine 'with' right now, so if someone can give them the info, that would be great. In LEW, we give players maximum starting gold.

LEW is good for me. How does a dwarven wizard sound? Craft skills, item creator type guy.

:-)

Where do we submit characters for a LEW game? I've got my dwarven wizard all set to go almost.

Item creation should be interesting in the setting. We havn't finalized our rules on it, but they should be coming fairly soon if I can get the proposed content both approved and finished.

You submit the character here. That thread contains all 74 current characters. You will need to be approved, which shouldn't take long, and from there we will go into a game.

The region I'm planning on starting in is covered with volcanic activity and dangerous natural phenomenon. The greatest landmark in the region is a huge tower on the edge of the "world" (our world has edges), that is called the Elemental tower of Fire. It never rains within a hundred miles of this tower, so it is surrounded by desert beyond the mountains. (Volcanic mountains around the tower, surrounded by deserts. Located in the Southeast.)

We will likely begin in the largest city in the deserts, and the capital city of the desert kingdom. The region itself hasn't been very thoroughly pieced together, but I have a number of ideas to integrate and I think it could make for a fairly exciting area to see. If this is suitable to the group, I'll get to work on more specific material.
 

I am definitely going the way of the bard, but he will not be conventional. more of a relic hunter ala indiana jones. Am working on getting him into the LEW character record.
 


What deities are especially revered in this region? I'm thinking of playing a cleric. Looking at the deities thread for LEW, the ones that appeal to me are Grendath, Phyrah, Chennet', Sela, Gliran in roughly that order. As this is a Fire region, Chennet' might be the best choice. What do you think?
 




I just have one more question before my character will be completed:
When wearing armor do you add the weight of your starting outfit as well or is armor weight assumed to include clothes as well?

My character will be a rogue/sorcerer so it looks like we have:
1 Rogue (me), 1 Bard (wolfheart), 1 Cleric (jtone), and 1 Wizard (Ferrix) so far at first level. With perhaps 1 Fighter (lefferts) and 2 others coming up.

Seems like a well balanced party to me :)
