Gaming W/Jemal - Epic Mortal Kombat (Character creation.)

[Jemal]

yes to the first question, NO to the second.

I said it in my other game, but I'll repost here for those who didn't read it or missed it.
I have no problem with LA Buy-off at lower levels, but at higher levels it becomes Free LA
If you want to lower the LA/Racial HD of a creature, just ask and I'll see what I can do, though It would be all/part of the Unique Special power of your charachter.

 

[Avalon®]

No problem with that. I'll just have to figure out what my special power will be. What level are we starting at?

 

[ethandrew]

Soooo, I haven't really read through all the submissions or everything, but are you guys full-up for this game?

 

[Jemal]

well, considering I haven't even 'officially' begun recruiting, I'd have to say no, we're not full.

Lets see, who has posted interest & Character Concept:

Moritheil - Possibly something with a High LA
Shayuri - Possible PseudoDragon (THough remember this is supposed to be no high-end spellcasting.. i think we temporarily lost sight of that)
Brother Allard - Feral Half-Ogre BearWarrior
Solarious - Rogue/Swashbuckler
Tric - Druidic Shifter
Lord_Raven - Tauric Halfling Blink Dog (Sneaky)
Avalon - Thri-Keen
Voidrazor - Anthropomorphic Elephant Crusader/Legendary Dreadnought
Ethandrew -
Autumn -
*Crazypixie Dropped*

Wow.. that's almost what I had in the other one, and lets see... 2 of you are IN my other Epic game, meaning 8 new players.

Did I miss anyone? I think I should probably cap it there, and I haven't even made the game officially Recruiting yet!
I love my job.

OK, I'll work up some Char Generation Info for you guys to work on, and will expect characters around the 22nd/23rd (At least a good draft, with most kinks worked out, not neccesarily finalized). I'll still be coming on to check up, and answer questions, though.

 

[Tric]

Alright, you're the boss.

 

[ethandrew]

I'm at work so I don't have any of my books with me, but I'm thinking of running a bard. I'd cap it at 4th level spell casting, so there's no worries about progressing. I believe it'd stop at around 12th level total for bard, the rest might be monster levels or a melee heavy PrC. I'll get you something more concrete by tomorrow at least, Jemal.

 

[Jemal]

One thing for those of you who ARE going to have spells/SLA's:
Pls don't have too much of your character based around them, this IS supposed to be Fighters. When I said 'no more than 4th level spellcasting', I didnt mean "Everyone take the best buffs&spells up to 4th level."

Keep in mind the spirit behind the rule, and not just the rule itself, I always say.

Now, heeeere's Johny:

ER, i mean character guidelines.

LVL 40, I won't be handing out/Dealing with individual XP's, I'll be giving you level ups when the time comes. I'd prefer it if the PC's didn't have anything that required XP expenditure(Though if you think it would be fun, I'm open to talking), and I will be ignoring the Multiclassing Xp Penalties.
Gold: As normal for lvl 40.
Allowed Sources:
Core(Including ELH), Complete's, Draconomicon. Keep in mind the previous restrictions (No Psionics, Incarnum, Book of 9, and no spellcasting/SLA's above 4th lvl spells.) If you want something from outside these sources, ask.

Equipment: Any printed in the above sources. If you want something specific from another source, Ask + give description. I WILL be allowing Item stacking (putting multiple abilities onto 1 item for extra cost) and using the Slot affinities. You may also make any Worn item slotless by doubling it's cost.
In addition, I will allow you to buy up to +40 Skill Enhancers. These are as per the DMG chart, and must make sense. (Instrument for perform, glasses for spot, boots for movement-related skills, etc, etc) .

I'd also like a bit (lot not required, but SOME required) of background, as well as your character's reason for being here (Against his/her will, wanted to prove self, trying to find out what's REALLY happening, etc).
Finally, I'd like to know if YOU have any idea for what sort of 'unique Extra' Your character might have, or if you'd like me to pick something.

If there's anything else, Just ask.

PS: I'm logging off now, will be back in about 14-15 hours.

*ALso, this may seem like common sense, but have SOME way of getting at hard-to-reach opponents (Flying, standing on cliff, etc).

One of the most powerful NPC's in the first Tournament(Whom I thought would be one of their hardest fights) died to flight + Shield of Infinite Deflection b/c he I forgot to give him a means to fly, and his Throwing/Returning Great Axe was not enough. Especialy when he's frenzying + can't run away.

5 minutes of
"RARGH!"*TING*; "Rargh!"*Ting*; "Rargh..."*Ting*; "rargh?"*TING!*.

*THUD!* "Is he dead yet?"

 

[Rino]

thinking of doing an Avoral Guardinal dex fighterish type

 

[Brother Allard]

There's a proposed epic progression for bear warrior over here that looks about right to me. I'd be curious to know what you think of it.
