Paxus, no problem, I figured you just missed the post (which is why I referenced it)

Does the gold value stay the same or does it raise to the standard for 21st level?

I am thinking Arcane Caster at the moment, I will play with a few ideas and throw something up tonight.

Glad to be aboard :)

Standard for 21, though that'll actually still put you a tad behind the others, who have GoldenEagle's share of the loot as well.

Dalamar, oh I forgot to tell you this but their are true desert elves in WotC's Unearthed Arcana now. :D
Yeah, I noticed. But I think I'll stay a generic elf, both because of her background, and because I like that +2 to Listen
 

Few more gold to spend, which will mainly go to mundane equipment, I should have cleared it with you first, but I started and couldn't stop. The Ursinal Guardinal can be found on page 174 and 175 of the Book of Exalted Deeds. I took levels of Loremaster too (I am a bad player). Let me know if you have any problems:

Name: Malchari
Race: Male Ursinal Guardinal (Outsider, Good)
Class: ECL 8/Outsider 10/Lore Master 3
Alignment: Neutral Good
Height: 8’2"
Weight: 680lbs
Eyes: Brown
Fur: Golden Brown


Strength 24 (10, +8 Race, +6 Enhancement)
Dexterity 22 (12, +4 Race,+6 Enhancement)
Constitution 30 (13, +6 Race, +5 Inherent, +6 Enhancement)
Intelligence 40 (18, +8 Race, +3 Level, +5 Inherent, +6 Enhancement)
Wisdom 14 (8, +6 Race)
Charisma 32 (13, +8 Race, +5 Inherent, +6 Enhancement)

Hit Points: 201 (10d8+3d4+130)

AC 48 (10, +8 Armor, +13 Natural, +5 Deflection, +6 Dexterity, +6 Shield, +1 Dodge, -1 Size)

Attack: +20 (11 BAB, +7 Strength, +2 Morale)
Damage 1d8 (+7) for claws, 1d8 (+3) for Bite

Saves:

Fort +25 (8 Base +10 Con, +5 Resistance, +2 Morale)
Reflex +21 (8 Base, +6 Dex, +5 Resistance, +2 Morale)
Will +19 (10 Base, +2 Wis, +5 Resistance, +2 Morale)


Racial Abilities

—Darkvision out to 60 feet and low-light vision.
—Immunity to electricity and petrification.
---Acid and Cold Resistance 10
— +4 racial bonus on saves against poison.
—Spell-Like Abilities: At will—Aid, Daylight, Deep Slumber, Detect Evil, Detect Magic, Detect Thoughts, Dimension Door, Dipel Magic, Hold Monster, Magic Circle against Evil (self only), Magic Missile, Polymorph, see invisiblility, Solid Fog, 3/day--Heal, Neutralize Poison, Remove Disease, 1/day Holy Word Caster level 12th.
---Lay on Hands (Su): This works just like the Paladin Ability healing up to 201 hp per day.
---Improved Grab (Ex): If a creature with both claws on a creature one size smaller than it is, it deals normal damage and attempts to start a grapple as a free action without provoking an attack of opportunity. No initial touch attack is required. The creature has the option to conduct the grapple normally, or simply use one claw to hold the opponent. If it chooses to do the latter, it takes a –20 penalty on grapple checks, but is not considered grappled itself; the creature does not lose its Dexterity bonus to AC, still threatens an area, and can use its remaining attacks against other opponents. Each successful grapple check it makes during successive rounds automatically deals the damage indicated for the attack that established the hold. When a creature gets a hold after an improved grab attack, it pulls the opponent into its space. This act does not provoke attacks of opportunity. It can even move (possibly carrying away the opponent), provided it can drag the opponent’s weight.
---Speak with Animals (Sp): Ursinals can mentally communicate with animals as a free action. This works exactly like Speak with Animals cast by an 8th level Druid but does not require sound.
---Uncanny Dodge (Ex): When on Elysium, ursinals can react to danger before their senses would allow them to do so. They retain their Dex bonus even when caught flat footed. They lose this ability on other planes.
—Outsiders breathe, but do not need to eat or sleep (although they can do so if they wish)
—Spell Resistance: 25
—+8 Str, +4 Dex, +6 Con, +8 Int, +6 Wis, +8 Cha
—+13 Natural Armor
—Damage Reduction 10/evil or silver

Thanks, but as you will see in game, he is what I term as a growth character. I think being only a 15th level caster in a 21st level game he will have some real problems keeping up with the kind of damage a pure caster is suppose to dish out. On the other hand he has a ton of spells usable at will, is not some dainty caster that can't take a hit and is an eight foot tall bear-man. Assuming Paxus has no problem with the Guardinal. He doesn't really have the BAB to be a "real" fighter though.

This was built like Talariel was (my character in Paxus's other epic game) but with arcane caster in mind. I think he can make a good contribution to the party though as he is waiting to grow into his full power.

Yeah that sounds like Brystasia who is something like a 14th caster and hasn't cast a spell successfully yet against an opponent. I'm slowly going to work her spells to more party friendly. Her spell DC isn't much better as the favored soul requires so many high abilities it's kind of hard to do.

Yeah same here Brystasia can take a few hits but lacks the offense of a real fighter. Hopefuly you’ll be a better “jack of all trades” then Brystasia is as the only thing she is good for is her saving throws. :)

I hate to rain on your parade, especially after you put all that work into it, but I really don't think the Ursinal is an appropriate PC race, especially in a game like this. While it's true you may not overshadow any individual character in any individual area, the sum of your abilities dwarfs that of any other character. I'm afraid I can't allow the Ursinal.
