Well, this is odd. Usually as a player I am used to feeling out of the loop at times .. but not as the DM! Of course, not that it is important. [Read: none of my business, just me making an odd comment]
So ... it looks like everyone's character is statted out and approved (except for minor concerns) except for Eluvan and Ferrix. Ferrix, I'll admit I haven't gotten a chance to look at the link to the old character yet, I'll put that on my list of priorities for today.
I think I am about ready to start the game when the character sheets are up and ready, but there is no immediate pressure. I can wait a few more days - even up to a week or so. But a week from Monday is the absolute final limit. I will be posting 1/2 of the introductory post soon so that you all know where the game is starting. Some of you might like that info as you think about backgrounds. But if I do post the first 1/2 of the introductory post, please don't post in the IC thread until I finish it once all the characters are in!

Bront said:No biggie NLF, just plotting against you
It's in reference to another PbP game.
Oh, I figured half as much. Besides, you all better be plotting against me since the first evil opponent you all are going to face is a Horned Devil.
MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Okay, maybe the Horned Devil is a bit much ....

Unfortuantely, Ferrix, I am only allowing the Core, Complete, and BoED sources. I have already said no to the cloistered cleric earlier in the thread, so to say yes to it now would probably paint me in a bad light! Sorry ...
Edit: I just took a look at your cleric from another game. Assuming she is adjusted for the point buy and level ... she certainly looks like a workable character. Of course, feel free to go in a different direction if you so choose.

*shrugs* i just like the cloistered cleric for some less combat oriented clerics.
Doesn't matter.

I hear you. That was pretty much the argument made by the other player who asked for it. And it is a legitimate argument, I'll give you that.
In other matters, as promised the first IC post is up. It can be found here: Elysium Squad IC As I reqwuested earlier, though, please do not post there yet. Feel free to read it - nothing in there should surprise you.
As far as background leading up to this goes ... Your character would have received a summons from Glammerdell (whose name is easily recognizable throughout the three civilized lands) and the summons would have made it pretty clear that they had been invited to a quest where they would be teleported to an unfriendly place so they should come to the summons prepared for teleport. They would have also been able to surmise that they would be doing ALOT of fighting evil (in possible many forms including planar and undead as well as humanoid and monstrous) and thus would also have had opportunity to prepare. While they would have been asked to keep the nature of the summons a secret, the summons would not have held back many details itself.
Once all the characters are posted, approved, and all the backgrounds are up - we can begin. Like I keep saying though, I don't want people to feel like I am pressuring them to start. I don't want to start on a weekend anyway. But I did want to get that much up so that as people were thinking about the world and tweaking their character they would know where the story would pick up and therefore they could successful match their character up with the beginning of the game. Have fun getting your characters finalized!
As I say in the gamethread, any questions your characters have about the quest should be asked here. You don't need to worry about putting them in an IC format - so just ask away. For those of you with complete characters, this will give you something to do while you prepare to get into the game.
