Well then, seems like it's time to go goblin-hunting to me.
Hey, Wilphe. Headed over here from my thread figuring this was a better place for this.
I'm a big FR fan and am interested in this game if you don't mind an ignorant new player. Do you have a rules post? Like where I'm supposed to do my rolls, what color of my text, etc?
I'm mulling over characters now, but have a few written up. They're at work, unfortunately, which I can't get into until Monday. I might be able to whip something up from memory, though, if you're looking to get a new character in sooner. I have a Human Cleric, Dwarven Wizard and Elven Rogue sorta fleshed out. Can come up with something else if necessary, though. Don't mind at all. Making character backgrounds is fun.
Anyways, I'll check in over this weekend to see what reply you have if any. I'm going to set up my account to allow emailing now if you want to get in touch that way.

Granted, I'm not the DM, but I can tell you where _we_ started, if you want something to chew on before Wilphe checks in again.
I believe we all started at 5th level, 28 point buy. Wilphe usually handles the majority of the dice rolling. At first I thought I'd have a problem with that, but I actually like it better that way now that I've seen it in action.
There's a ranger and a cleric in the party now. The fighter, rogue, wizard, and bard have all been consumed by the Great Crash. I dunno.. maybe they all failed a save?
Anyway, good luck to ya. Hope to see you around.IG
Thanks, IG. =)
Looking back, I see a post from Wilphe about 9000 xp and Half Elves getting the Human extra starting feat. So, I'm working around that now and creating a HE Rogue (Do they still get the other partial "elven" bonuses? If so, how are Humans unique?).
Other than playing Neverwinter Nights and all the expansions, I've never worked up a 3.5e character, so I'll probably make some mistakes. I'm also a bit nervous about doing gear right. It's been too long since I played!

9000 XP (4th level with some change, 1000XP away from 5th)
7000 gp in equipment
Stats:28 point buyor
If you'd prefer rolled stats ask me, and I will go generate a set for you at Invisible Castle.
Favoured Classes will not apply.Instead, Humans and Half-Elves will get a bonus feat at 1st level.*
Hit Points:You can either take fixed:d12 = 6 d10 = 5 d8 = 4 d6 = 3 d4 = 2 Or you can ask me and I'll roll them for you.
*Basically anyone who would otherwise have "Favoured Class - ANY", gets a Bonus Feat in lieu
So Half Elves would have 3:
1st Level
3rd Level
Bonus in Lieu of Favoured Class
Humans would have 4:
1st Level
3rd Level
Bonus for beign Human
Bonus in Lieu of Favoured Class
I prefer to roll stats or hit dice because I'm assuming that people won't be that familiar with the process, I'm quite happy for people to roll in game, provided they link to it.
Feats, races, etc are on a Core + "If I have it and don't think it's hideously broken" basis, and I have quite a lot of stuff.
However, if you aren't sure about 3.5 you are best sticking to Core/SRD
If you want to talk about Regional Feats and don't have FRCS or PGTF then I can help you.
We have a Ranger and a Cleric right now, but really anything is okay.

Gotcha!
I'll take some rolled HPs if ya don't mind (10 Con). I'll also have a character background written up tomorrow. It's fleshed out in my head, just need it on paper. And I'll be going Rogue.
I do have the Forgotten Realms campaign book, I'm not sure what the acronym PGTF is, though.
Is there a feat that lets you take a cross class skill as a class skill? It would fit with my characters background to have Knowledge (arcana) and Knowledge (religion). He's going to be a "brainy" and perceptive rogue (16 int, 14 wis) and ma and pa were a Wizard and a Cleric (which I'll get into more detail once I've written it all up). Much to pa's and his frustration, though, he can't cast even a simple cantrip no matter how hard he studied (thus the above Knowledge skills.) He can, however, use magical devices like a champion. So, I was hoping to get him at least the Knowledge (arcana) skill as a class skill, but if not, I've got other ideas as well. No worries.
