The character will be somewhere between 8th and 10th level at the time of the game.  She is the default "fighter" from the preview over the summer, leveled up to 8 for now.  She is an axe/hammer and shield fighter, with a penchant for charging, so any shields that are especially cool or items that help when charging would be appreciated.  Also items that work well with her chosen powers and feats would be appreciated.  Below is her stats and abilities so far: Sharna Ironclad of Rockhome, Unaligned Dwarf Fighter 8    XP: 13k+___________ Next: 16.5kHP: 75 (37)    Surge: 18hp OOOOOOOOOOOOOO    STR 18CON 20DEX 12INT 10WIS 14CHA 8Racial Abilities: Speed 5 (even encumbered, 7 charge, 9 run), Lowlight Vision, Speak Common, Dwarf, Resilience (Second Wind =Minor Action), +5 Save vs. Poison, Stability (forcibly move 1 less square, Save vs. Prone), +2 Dungeoneering & EnduranceClass Features: Combat Challenge, Combat Superiority (+2 hit w/ OA), Weapon Talent (1H weapon +1 hit)Feats: Dwarven Weapon Training, Armor Prof: Plate, Victor’s Confidence (+1 to saves after drop a foe), Powerful Charge (+2 dmg +2 bullrush on charge), Fast Runner (Speed +2 on charge or run) Skills: Athletics +11, Dungeoneering +8, Endurance +15, Heal +11, Insight +6 (16), Perception +6 (16), Streetwise +8, Stealth +5, Acrobatics +5, Other (Stat+4)At-Will Powers: Crushing Surge: STR vs. AC, 1[W]+STR dmg; INVIGORATINGTide of Iron: STR vs. AC, 1[W]+STR dmg, Push foe 1 sq. & choose to shift into their space.
