[QUOTE="Majoru Oakheart, post: 2405026, member: 5143"] I didn't do "just fine", I did alright. It was more fun than sitting around doing nothing, but we had so many arguements each week, resulting in people picking up their stuff and going home or once a DM I had went into his room and refused to come out and left all his players sitting around a table. All due to arguements due to lack of rules. There were weeks I felt it was easier not to play. I KNEW there must be a better way though. If only someone would write down rules for the things we argued each week about. My friends wouldn't accept the ones I made up. Alright, I'll bite: Race: (I'll assume human) [b]Strength:[/b] 10 (0) [b]Intelligence:[/b] 12 (+1) [b]Wisdom:[/b] 20 (+5) (currently 26 with periapt) [b]Constitution:[/b] 9 (-1) [b]Dexterity:[/b] 11 (0) [b]Charisma:[/b] 17 (+3) [b]Alignment:[/b] Lawful Good (seems good to me) [b]Gold Pieces:[/b] GP value for 18th level (don't have a DMG to check it) [b]Experience: [/b]153000 [b]Hit Points:[/b] 79 [b]Spells:[/b] 6 5+1(+2) 5+1(+2) 5+1(+2) 5+1(+2) 4+1(+1) 4+1(+1) 3+1(+1) 3+1(+1) 2+1 [b]Domains:[/b] Healing and War [b]Feats:[/b] Martial Weapon Proficiency (longsword)(B), Weapon Focus (longsword)(B), Combat Casting, Improved Crit (longsword), Augmented Healing, Extra Turning(x2), Quicken Spell, Empower Spell, Divine Metamagic (Quicken Spell) [b]Skills:[/b] Heal 21(+8), Spellcraft 21(+1), Knowledge(Religion) 21(+1), Concentration 21(-1) [b]Equipment:[/b] silver cross, Longsword +4, full plate armor & large steel shield +5, potions of Cure Serious Wounds and Gaseous Form, Boots of Levitation, backpack, iron rations, waterskin, 3 vials of holy water and a church in the city, periapt of wisdom +6, ring of protection +4 (and a bunch of gold left over) [b]Backstory:[/b] explored White Lion castle in the name of God, wherein he eventually laid low the vile Baron Darkcloak and his undead horde. Now resides in the city of Emberfile, only occasionally going on quests for myriad holy reasons. Mine took me about 15 minutes, but I was interupted a couple of times(I'm at work), and had to consult the SRD for a couple things I didn't know. Overall, not half bad. [/QUOTE]
