[QUOTE="Grim, post: 316279, member: 132"] My first game was right after 3E came out. I had a half elf rogue named Hobin Kobad. I made up his name after going through the MM randomly and finding Hobgoblin and Kobold. He was a thief with a deathwish. He died at least once every single session. We spent the first session going through the Goblin Cave, and then through a Magic Carnival. My DM wasnt very creative back then. At fourth Hobin multiclassed into wizard, and only became good at 8th, where he started using fireball. Before that, he never sneak attacked, never hid, never used magic missle, or invisiblilty or anything. I had no idea what I was doing, didnt know the rules, and didnt look at spells much. At 8th we ended the campain with everyone being killed in the Forge of Fury. (stupid dragon!) After that I went through a variety of characters: a fighter, a mage, a ranger, a rather successful and memorable dwarven barbarian named Stimpy Vermincrusher (hats of to Wulf Ratbane for the name idea, a cleric, a psion, a dwarven rogue named Smithy Goldpants (he really had gold pants!). And just recently I rolled up my favorite character so far, a Gnomish Cleric, Tom Badgerclaw (name stolen almost directly from PC's story hour character. TomTom) Tom is part of a holy order of the Church of Gond dedicated to bringing his holy light to the entire world. And since our party is going to run City of the Spider Queen when it comes out, he is currently busy trying to convert Drow. "Embrace the Light!" doesnt work very well as a greating in the underdark. Oops. [/QUOTE]
