mfrench, for one reason or another I have a yearning for this game to begin. Would you mind terribly to start up a prologue thread for MacNacFeegle and myself so we can start with some fluffy RP'ing in ithe monastery or something, so that we can get to know each others charcter before the actual game starts?
An E6 oriental/western game (replacement needed) - last call for bento
- Thread starter mfrench
- Start date
DrZ: Sure, I'll see what I can get up and running this morning.
Here's the Nakatura Valley OOC thread.
I'm working on a brief prologue so that you two can get running. Edit: Here it is.
The IC thread will be up eventually. I am also going to try to formalize all of the rules in one place. Edit: Here is the IC thread, to be started shortly.

I was building Tagret (and I liked his background btw) and was wondering about starting gold and equipment. Any special rules or ideas?
DrZ, Precise Strike is fine. What is it from, exactly (just for reference)?
Lorthanoth: Very cool! I like Master Chen. He definitely needs a familiar though.
[sblock=bento]Your shugenja was living in a town farther west when it was overwhelmed by a crazed group of barbaric cultists led by a jackal-headed demon. Shortly after, wildfires swept the area, devestating any rebuilding efforts. You led a group of surviving refugees up the river. The Nakatura River valley has been very much to your liking, as it is a fertile area. The River has a vibrant spirit that seems to welcome you. You have heard of the lake at the center of the valley, and perhaps wish to visit there for spiritual reasons.[/sblock]
Amazing Triangle: More beguiler-ish goodness tonight. I'll post it after work.
For starting gold / equip, use ~1200 gp total and PHB/DMG costs.

Another question lol. With E6, is it possible to still obtain the higher level class abilities? Just kinda popped into my head while I was sitting here making him.

First Post
Generally there are feats that require 6 levels in a class and give up to the 8th level benefits. For example, a ninja might get feats giving access to Ghost Strike or Speed Climb.

Good stuff. Are the feats restricted to any certain books? And are you allowing the "suggest feats" which modify ability scores like in the E6 link on the first post? When can we take those feats?

Korobokuru [sblock=Adjustments for mfrench]If we get rid of the stat bonuses then I would also get rid of "+2 on saves versus poison cause the are hardy" because it no longer fits the flavor and the "+2 wilderness lore (which is not 3.5)" to +2 Knowledge local. As he is a city version (he is still taught in the old ways of fighting giants and goblins) then he is like a third or fourth generation living in the city. No darkvision? They have it in OA was that deliberate or just a miss type.[/sblock]
I will post a character sheet after I get the details of what you are thinking for the beguiler.
