[QUOTE="airwalkrr, post: 3857842, member: 12460"] My ability scores did not really fit well with a ranger concept. But that's ok because it gives me a chance to try a concept I have been thinking about for a while. A human psion will probably help the party more anyway. Edit: Since I found out we are doing point buy I went back to the ranger concept. However, after reading up on the background I decided to go with a Warden of the Wood instead.
