[QUOTE="Aura, post: 6464531, member: 6747658"] [U]Reviewing Illiolidenna Galilia[/U] This is a judge review of Illio. Items are separated into things the player needs to do (as well as edits I've already made), suggestions the player might wish to entertain, and misc commentary. I could be wrong on any given issue, although the review is offered in good faith as accurate to the best of my ability. (Feel free to point out any possible errors and we'll resolve it.) Onward! [U]Things the Player Needs to Address[/U] * The Background needs to be specified as Open or Closed. A third possible variant I've seen is Open(ask). This tells a potential DM how much leeway he or she may have when dealing with your character's background issues. You'll want to have this done before joining your first adventure, but it is not, in of itself, reason to hold up approval. * I made some minor edits:[sblock=Disclosure]Cleaned up expression of size and other misc modifiers; Corrected name, class, level and portrait for Adventures page; Corrected the total value of a number of skills; Noted FC elections after declaration of Favored Class; Cleaned up Racial Features to match formatting in other sections; Minor cleanups.[/sblock] [U]Suggestions to Entertain [/U]* You may wish to note the familiar must be within arm's reach for the master to gain Alertness. * You might want to simplify the HP expression of the familiar to 'Half Illio". * I would suggest a light crossbow if you wish to be able to inflict any real lethal damage. You can use it without taking a Str Mod penalty. * You don't necessairly need the graphical layout for your spells used per day on the character sheet itself. You'll find you'll have a 'stat block' used during the adventure that will typically take care of this. * I don't recommend rolling HP at level 2 and higher.

Congratulations! Things to do: * Choose your background status (see above). * Introduce yourself in the Dunn Wright Inn--feel free to interact with characters you might not normally have a chance to meet. * Await an adventure invitation/recruitment from a DM.
