[QUOTE="Masleh, post: 2658461, member: 37009"] I got your e-mail, you can expect a reply sometime this Sunday night Great so far, and I'm fine with the orb spells, but you're going to need a reason to be of intrest once inside Eberron :] JimAde only [sblock]basic info can be found here on what history you should know is here [url]http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/eb/20040608a[/url] and the info on Dragonmarks may be found here [url]http://www.enworld.org/forums/showthread.php?t=94216[/url] The short of my mentioning dragonmarks is that they're very linked to Eberron and its metaplot, a stranger whose wound up on Eberron through planar breach (an event almost unheard of) manifesting an Abberant Dragonmark (a dragon mark unaffilliated with a particular house) is a once in the entiriety of Eberrons existance event. The begining of this game will be focused on a cross-cosmology planar breach (Eberron has an alterante cosmology then the Great Wheel of D&D fare) and the intrigue surrounding it. Since you'll be playing a cross-planar outsider anyway I could have you appear at the same time as the incident.

If all this is too much to worry about for you we can work out a differint backstory[/sblock] Sounds like a great character, you're fine for inclusion, feel free to post 'im on the Rogues Gallery. Due to the last two characters recieved I don't think it's going to be much of a problem, I'll bring in a NPC to aid the party if things get really overbalanced, but it looks as if we'll be fine. I like it so far, we'll go over the where, when and why of his deactivation and reactivation via E-mail. Point buy system w/38 to spend, 36,000 gp for your character, and HD calculations at 3/4th + con modifier (a d4=3 hp, d6=4 hp, d8=6 hp, etc) The concept is approved, though there are a couple of things we're going to need to flesh out. Psoinics are unusual outside of Riedra and Khalshatar, some explination might or might not be required ((I'll need to check back with the Eberron setting books) and Nymphs Kiss I have a slight problem with.

The bare bones of the character concept works, & I like the imagery. but I'm going to need alot more in terms of how he relates to the game world, and his place in it. Country, orginizations, etc. How familiar are you with the Eberron setting? Point buy, 38. What book is the Runesmith from? [/QUOTE]
