[QUOTE="Ringmereth, post: 2390420, member: 33915"] Okay, there are some problems with Wayland: 1. First, I'd like an accounting for your inventory. Write out the cost and weight of each item. 2. Likewise, I'd like to have minimal math for skills-please list how many ranks you put into each. 3. You have too many languages. You get Common and Elven by default. You have an Int bonus of +1, and therefore get one more, not three. If you're using skill points to buy extra languages, make a note of it under 'Skills'. As for ancient languages, there aren't any dead languages, or at least any that he would know. Draconic is the closest to an ancient language-and you'll probably want it as a spellcaster anyway. 4. Your special qualities have a glitch: Half-elves don't get 'Persuasive' as a bonus feat. They get +2 (not +3) to Diplomacy and Gather Info, and they also get +1 to Listen, Search, and Spot. 5. Regarding the Rapier proficency, I'll let you swap the above bonus to Listen, Search, and Spot for that. 6. As a general worry, your character is rather underpowered in relation to the others. He can't cast useful spells (and risks losing them when he does), he's not very capable in melee combat, and his stats aren't at all optimized. I'm not going to reject Wayland on this basis alone, but I'm concerned that his odds of surviving here are low. Fix 1-4, consider 5 and 6, and add your bio. [/QUOTE]
