[QUOTE="Feathercircle, post: 1071369, member: 11266"] [b]Hmmm....[/b] I'd be a little leery of using Savage Species with 3.5... I've heard of people having all kinds of conversion issues with it.. mostly cases damage reduction, but other things as well... just because a species level was balanced against 3e classes doesn't mean its balanced with 3.5, after all... Anyway, if you've still got a slot open, I have an interesting character who might be good in this campaign, if you'd allow it... my misborn, psionics-less, chaotic neutral with good tendancies illithid bard Ikanthilossk. (LONG story....) I've only had one DM allow that character, and he was the one who was so hack and slashy and inept he constantly sent things with a CR 4 levels over our heads at us but we won anyway and leveled so fast I got whiplash and decided that forcing someone's character to be gay was an adequate compensation for playing an ECL race (without having them take Level Advancement costs)... So, kind of a bad experience with him. I can find my character sheet and post it by this evening... I don't know how the Savage Species version works since I don't have the book, so I went straight monster manual when I originally created the character.. And Soldarin's ECL calculator pegged it at about 7.5 for 3rd Edition... so I'd come in with about 6 levels of Bard. But first I'd have to get a yea or nay from ye. [/QUOTE]
