I think it is kind of slow around here...(postponed)

That sounds superb, HM.

I'm going to play a magic user of some kind then, an apprentice role perhaps. I won't bother with Psionics as I'm not familiar with them (at all) and it seems you aren't either. I'll save us both the hassle.

So, Illithid perhaps, or... hmm... what other out-of-the ordinary evil magic users are there? I could just play a human, but where's the fun in that!

FYI, the Mind Flayer progression I have was done with the psionic version in mind. I'd have to tweak it a bit to make it fit the Monster Manual version.

Well if no one plays a standard race I think you may find it hard to mingle and gather info. Unless you have a good disguise skill. You should all decide I will try and make the game 70% RP and 30% combat unless you as a group decide otherwise.

Also length/long terms goals for the game, discuss those to let me know what to be thinking on as an overall theme. Maybe the Ravenloft part is a quick lay over as you get trapped then escape. Or taking over a realm.

Hmm, good point on the mingling and so on, yes. I'll have a think tonight about something less obvious, I may even choose human, depending on what class I choose... The feat is sometimes amazing valuable. I'll have a think.

Don't bother with that Illithid conversion, CM, although I appreciate the offer.

Possible bodyguard GM??

And SB I think it is a no brainer for first lvl human bonus feat (Toughness) especially for a wizard.

A spellcasting Skeletal Champion seems pretty cool. Just an idea...

 

[GandalfMithrandir]

Fighter class for the feats also if I can be referred to as Gandalf that would be super, because sometimes GM can stand for Game Master, which gets confusing, when I am the game master, it works out ok I'm not mad, it just avoids confusion. Thank you!

Whilst that is very, very cool, a character with d4 hp/lvl and no CON bonus is suicidal! Err... that is... if Undead can commit suicide

Interest concept though, I may think some more about a skeleton. Alter self would fool those pesky villagers, too. Then again, so would a fireball to the face.

That template is for Pathfinder evidently and would need a little tweaking to make it 3.5 compatible. For one thing, the Undead type changes all current future hit dice to d12s. The class skills for its racial hit dice would also need to be revised slightly, most likely to Climb, Disguise, Hide, Intimidate, Knowledge (Arcana), Knowledge (Religion), Listen, Move Silently, Sense Motive, Spellcraft, and Spot. I'd assign the template a Level Adjustment of +2.
