Thanks for letting us know Gene. I'll stay with the Gensai swordmage then.
Awww, Evo you don't want to play a shifter warden? 
I'm sticking with the gnoll barbarian. He's been fun to play, and is definitely different from my usual characters. It's kind of fun to be entirely focused on slicing and dicing, without worrying about protecting or healing anyone else.

I like the idea of a warforged invoker of Erathis made before the fall of the Empire. The Con bonus works well for the build as well (though no Wis bonus hurts).
I think I am to interpret this that warforged wardens and warforged druids are not allowed, but warforged invokers or shifter druids are. The latter two were my main concepts.

Sorry, sometimes I get wonky.
Play what you like.
I'd rather see the Warforged Warden (weilding a warhammer) than a Genasi swordmage who kills ALL MY MINIONS.
Play what you like, the warforged invoker could be quite interesting.

Thanks Gene. I'll have a dwarven Warden up later tonight.

I thought about it, but I don't want to take your character.
Good call, I like the Erathis idea.

Sounds like two votes for Vessel, Chosen of Erathis. I'll post him later then.

At the start of your turn you can make a saving throw against one effect that a saving throw can end. On a successful save, the effect immediately ends, preventing it from affecting you this turn.

Personality and Appearance
Whorven wears the thick skin of a bear in the form of armor and a heavy cloak. A large hammer is on one hip and a heavy wooden shield, covered in bear hide is strapped to one arm. Whorven's connection with the earth is easily apparent. He smells musky, like dirt. He does not sweat normally, instead his pores leak mud. The same is in his blood; it is not red, but thick and a deep brown. Pebbles and grains of dirt and sand fall from his hair and dark beard.
The dwarf takes his job a defender seriously. He is tough as nails, and would rather come to the aid of a friend, than engage an enemy.[/sblock]
Thoughts? The only thing I am unsure about is the attack bonus. +5 seems pretty low for a defender. If I took a +3 prof weapon would that be good enough? I'd probably drop DWT for toughness in that case.
