- don't worry bout it, he's there now.
Character looks good mechanically. I would prefer it if your equipment wasn't in one large, hard-to-read block.
I also just want to remind you that your duskblade will suffer from the spell failure chance of his armour, as he only has armoured mage(light), but is wearing medium armour(Breastplate), unless I missed something.

Flesh
- Ah, you are correct about intimidate. Just keep it in mind whenever you use it b/c most of your 'targets' will be medium.
Renau1g
- good to go
Rathan
- You don't have an alternate source listed, is that b/c you aren't going to use one?
Rest looks good.
Myth
- You don't have an alternate source listed, is that b/c you aren't going to use one?
Rest looks good.
Theroc
- You still have an alchemists lab listed.
Make sure you tell me when you've picked the rest of your spells.
Rest looks good.

well i plan on sticking with a pure Knight (they go until 20). The only alternate source i might use is for feats. Can anyone suggest a good book with plenty of useful feats etc. for a knight?

Errr, yeah.......I, uh, forgot that. 
Gonna change that to a chain shirt, not that he has anything to spend the spare gold on.
Also, his extra source is just the SRD, for possible feat choices later on or something.
Question: Should he have Chondathan as an automatic language as he would in Faerun, or no?
Myth & Legend: Complete Warrior is probably best for your Knight's feat selection, if you have it, otherwise the SRD has some non-core feats for warriors in the Divine, Epic, and Psionic sections (despite the titles, those sections each have a few General feats from the books they're taken from, not just magical or epic or psionic feats).

I don't really have a source I've needed to look into yet being so low a level and all... can someone suggest an alternate source for me that might be useful later on... as I've not mapped Terrance out much past his current level I haven't even thought of an alternate source yet.... a little help all?

- Actually, not really.. For a straight up human Knight all you'd be looking at othe books for is feats, and you've allready got the big 3 for fighter-types (PHB, PHB2, Complete Warrior). Anybody else got any ideas for him?
Rhun
- Mechanics look good so far. Tell me when you've finished everything (spell selection/Equipment were the only things that don't look complete to me)

Not Often do I write personal letters of acceptance to applicants, but your story in particular called out to me. You see, I too know the sting of such loss, and have born the burden of righteous vengeance. It is my most fervent hope that you find what you seek here at the School, and when it comes time to return to your land, I foresee you going not only with the knowledge and power gained here, but perhaps with steadfast allies as well.
Good Luck

Rathan - Well that all depends on what kind of Priest you're planning on. Complete Scoundrel could be an option, as could the Races Of books, but I think I covered most of the 'basics' with the sources I allowed right off the bat (Such was my hope and intention, anyways). The extra sources aren't a "you must have one", they were for use if you had an intended/specific character concept that NEEDED one of them, such as playing an Eldritch Disciple from Complete Mage (Warlock/Priest hybrid), or a Grayguard from Complete Scoundrel(variant Paladin PrC).
Basically something to distinguish your character's cultural/planar differences from other students. It's by no means required.
Arkhandus
- As I've allready told Theroc (Who also asked to use the SRD variant rules), everything from there is on a case by case basis. (Ask first)
Glasseye
- I don't actually have Races of the Wild, so you'll have to type out the specifics on feats/etc from it before taking them, so I can approve/dissaprove them. Also, if you're allready planning towards something in that book I'd suggest asking about it now so you don't get there and then find out I won't allow it.
Character looks good to go... though as I've pointed out to other players, Rations aren't required as food of any sort required is provided freely by the cafeteria.
