Ok, I'm in. 
Since we've just lost our Rogue, I'm happy to go with a Bard. Heavy on skills, should be able to fill in for a Rogue.
Basic premise is that he's out adventuring to learn. He has a tiny knack for magic (bardic spells), but wants to find out what magic is really about. Knowledge, rogue skills, and Use Magic Device. Probably human.
Today is a bit busy, but I'll have a character up tomorrow.

Background Pretty standard, but what the heck
Thomas Gangier was born as son of a farmer in a rather small village. His life was little different from the other boys of his age; exploring the woods, helping out on the farm, dreaming of the wide world and the wonders that it held. All of that changed when Thomas discovered that he had sorcerous talent, at the age of 16. He was instantly awed by the brilliance and diversity of magic, and wanted to learn more about it. Thomas decided to learn what magic was really about, and set out to explore the world.
It turned out that Thomas was not really good at doing magic, but what he lacked, he made up in hard study. He soon found out that he didn't care so much about the actual power that magic gave him, as in the wonders of the diversity of magic. He didn't really pursue the study of his own spells after that, but began extensive research on the different ways that magic manifests itself.
Thomas is very good-natured, an all-round likeable fellow. He is still pretty young, just short of twenty, but has seen quite a lot of the world already. He is quite open and hasn't forgotten the way he was raised, but he tends to be naïve sometimes. Thomas still travels the world in search of (knowledge on) odd forms of magic. Even though he doesn't necessarily 'hoard' magic items, he does have a soft spot for small magical trinkets and charms.

Coin: 101GP, 9SP
Lomas is a skinny young man of 22 years. While weak, he does not come across as unhealthy. He generally dresses well and there is a great depth of character and wisdom in his eyes.
Psi manifested itself in Lomas at an early age. His parents, simple peasants, did their best for him, but often tried to hide their son's talents out of unjustified fear. In his early teens, a wandering bard recognized and identified Lomas' gifted inner senses. The bard connected Lomas with another psi for further training.
Lomas' tutelage under the seer Farsath lasted only two years - just long enough for Lomas to feel he was capable of carrying on his own study. Farsath used her psi powers toward highly dubious and unethical ends, and her demands upon Lomas to do likewise rubbed him the wrong way.
He has traveled across the country for the last two years - seeing sights, meeting people, and trying to further develop his talents as a seer. His psicrystal, Blaze, is constantly urging him to perform heroic deeds. Lomas grumbles at the nagging, but usually concedes and helps those in need. The psicrystal is, after all, a manifest part of Lomas' subconscious mind.

Great looks like we have a number of great characters. This looks to be lots of fun. I happen to have entirely too much time on my hands (being a teacher in the summer in Japan means I have to sit on the computer for 8 hours) so I have gone over all of the characters posted so far. There was a rule I guess I should have posted earlier re: hps. I work on max at first, half for every level after. With that in mind here are my notes regarding each of your characters.
someone: +1000gp, -1 fort, -1 will (I imagine that you have bought a cloak of resistance +1, in which case you get +1 ref)
sollir: +3 hp, spellbook (should have mentioned this house rule too: for starting wizards their spellbooks have double the spells
they can cast), +135gp (potions came to 3800, scrolls to 4550, rest 515), +1 skill point
fanog: 25 hp, counting up skill points I have you at 3 over.
rybaer: +2 hp, diplomacy is also a crossclass skill for Seers so I think you overspent skill points by 2, just a reminder its 9000gp for when you get to that part.
Thrarn and Thels, I will have a look over your two fighters when you get them up

Fixed up the skill and HP. I've changed one feat and a 0-level power since the first draft. Also, gear has been purchased. Please double-check the costs...each time I tallied it, the numbers seemed to change. My notes were pretty ugly.
Just a heads up on playing style. I intend to heavily utilize Object Reading and Sensitive to Psychic Impressions - the defining powers of the character. In combat, Lomas will always try to drag a non-psi into psionic combat to gain an advantage over him/her. This will most often be with the attack mode Empathic Multiplier, but could change depending on the nature of the foe.
The armor and shield Lomas uses are a non-issue in spite of his lack of proficiency because neither carries a check penalty.
Let me know if you see anything else you want fixed. Looking forward to playing.
