Select a "Scales of War" background (Dragon #366)*Background determines starting "Class Skills" Also, you are encouraged to make up your own names for locations & starting communities. Select 1 Feat* Select 1 "Special Item"-a weapon, shield, armor, cloak, boots, book, whatever... -this will (eventually) be a legendary, intelligent item that the character inherits... it will evolve & advance as the character does. [sblock=*]When you select background & feats, use common sense to select things that would apply to a "special", but unskilled person. Some backgrounds may be applied as belonging to your characters parents (on a case-by-case basis).[/sblock] When characters achieve XP for level 2, their class will be "assigned" based on a combination of:-your choice -the manner in which its RPed -the role it plays in the party -initial item selection At that point you will make a 2nd level character based on your starter character, and the campaign will continue from there. As far as character submission goes... all I'm looking for is a general idea of who the character will be, and its background. The world is a blank slate. We can hammer out most of the other details later.</blockquote>
