[QUOTE="Toric_Arthendain, post: 1936364, member: 9833"] I think 3rd level sounds fair. Everyone would have a little experience but still have plenty of room to grow. I was planning on setting the campaign in the north, as I too prefer that area, which is not to say that the game would never move to the south. Anything would be possible later on, assuming the game continues for awhile. I'm thinking that the PCs should have no direct ties to The Black Company, at least initially. That way I can start the group out as their own fledgling mercenary band. This is not to say that the group won't run across or even be absorbed by The Black Company at some future point. So, character creation basics... 3rd level 32 point buy for stats Max hit points for 1st level, I will roll for the other two levels 300sp to start as per chart on pg. 110 for equipment. PCs will not start the game with more than 20sp in their pockets though, so spend as much as possible initially. Any occupation and class from the rulebook is okay, although I would prefer no more than one wizard. Please choose an ethnicity (Forsberger, Juniper, etc.) from pages 104-105 and write a brief character background. That should cover it. Any other questions, suggestions or comments, feel free to post them... Toric [/QUOTE]
