[QUOTE="DispelAkimbo, post: 4594218, member: 1916"] Thanks for all the excellent suggestions so far guys. I've downloaded the excellent character generator (thanks Gruns!) and have tried creating my Feylock, with the Swordmage multiclass and Intelligent Blademaster feats (thanks Shaggyspellsword!). I've also dropped Con by two points and increased Dex & Int by one each (thanks Wepwawet!) for a nice +3 to my two main stats and Dex too. I'm still a little nervous about the low Fort defence, but hopefully I can choose a feat or find a magic item to offset that if it becomes a real problem. Im now happy that I've got a character that I'll not only enjoy playing, but also it's not going to be too weak that it will let the side down. Seems as you guys have done such a great job helping me out so far I've got one more final request if anyone has a few spare moments of inspiration? ... I think this will be the first Eldarin we've had at the group, so it’s a chance for me to set a precedence of what they can be like and to influence how my fellow gamers might also choose to play one in future. As such, I'd like to make it a memorable character instead of "just another character that’s a bit elfy". I'm also looking to really emphasise the Fey aspect of the character and his association with the FeyWild. Firstly, does anyone have some creative phrases that my character can utter when placing his Warlocks curse upon his opponents? Secondly, it seems to me that someone originating from another realm where everything is more extreme / vivid, often to the point of bordering on madness, etc, they're likely to have different view points, a different perspective and different values. Does a native from the Feywild view the prime plane (if it's still called that in 4th ed), do they view it as dull, drab and pitiful or is it a safe relief away from the extremes of their exaggerative home world? Thirdly, any suggestions on personality traits that I can use to distinguish the fact that this is an Eldarin? An accent or specific "voice" often works well, although I'm still searching for an example of one that is do-able easily in a gaming environment. I do plan on having him "hear voices in the wind" or the "fey wind" as he will call it. That should help distinguish him a little, although unless the DM occasionally assists this with whispers of anything plot related, it's going to be hard to maintain any reason for continuing it. Any other suggestions? Thanks in advance, you're all marvellous! [/QUOTE]
