[QUOTE="GentleGiant, post: 1482440, member: 11829"] I hope this is the right forum to post this in... Anyway, here's my story: I just moved back to the city I left about a year ago (to travel) and have been invited to join the campaign a small bunch of my friends play in. To join I, of course, have to make a character and here's where the trouble started. I couldn't think of a character. I have been thinking and thinking for close to a week now and no character or concept has sprung to mind. So I felt that I should turn to the creative ENWorld collective and ask for help. Here's the skinny on the party and campaign; Right now it consists of 3 characters. A Drow/Half-fiend Rogue, a Human Fighter (close combat/tank + he also has a couple of Cleric levels (don't know how many)) and an Aasimar Sorcerer. They started out as 4th level characters and are now 17th level (well, the Rogue is fairly new, the player had a Halfling Rogue before this one). The campaign is set in the Forgotten Realms setting. Recently they have just finished Return to the Temple of Elemental Evil and gained some titles and land in Cormyr. They were also given Lordship of Tilverton. The party started out as an evil party, but now only the Rogue is evil (NE I think) while the other two have migrated to neutral (with some good tendencies here and there). So, this is the campaign I have to make a character to. Here are the rules I can use: Race: Core books + FRCS (- any of the Genasi races) Class: Any (- psionics) - I think any book is a go as long as I can find someone with a copy of it so the DM can have a look at it. Prestige Classes: Any (see above) Level: 17th A character that is somewhat different from the others would, of course, be ideal, but any ideas are appreciated. I think that's it. I hope some of the creative minds around here would like to help out and give some suggestions for characters. TIA GentleGiant [/QUOTE]
