Keeping the blade [OOC]

First Post
Everyone remembers the war, it started as border conflict between the two great Empires Tansar and Kysor as both refused to step down and lose face. It was short, bloody and decisive. When Kysor saw themselves being pushed back into their own lands by the innovative Tansarian military they made a daring strike at the very heart of Tansar. A small team of elite soldiers infiltrated the Imperial palace at Anrevar...

This proved to be the turning point...

----

The game will start with the PCs entering the palace; their success (or failure) will change the future of the world. After the attack we will fast-forward five years, and the PCs will experience first-hand the effects of their choices.

Interesting...10,000 gold at level 12? Is this a specifically low-magic or low-funds campaign?

Bearing in mind that such isn't a -bad- thing. I just want some clarification, as the availability of items can have impact on which concepts will work, and which will have more problems. :)

I knew I forgot something, thank you for bringing that to my attention.

I'm working on getting my scanner working so I can show everyone what the continent looks like. Stupid peripherals.

I'd love to try a high level Warlock...especially for a mission involving sneakery and combat, both of which they're well suited to...

I shall post a character here anon!

I'm going for a Human Hexblade Archer. Will also be posting him in a little bit.

Is this supposed to be sneaky? Should I make my character a little more stealthy? Sounds like the infiltration thing probably could be, but is the rest of the campaign gonna be like that?

Sounds interesting, I've got a couple of first thoughts which I'll flesh out a little and see which I like. Are there any alignment restrictions or restrictions on PrC's?

Also, for spells from the Complete series etc. are you using the spells in these, or the versions and spells in the Spell Compendium?

Do you want a complete character sheet at the moment, or just concept/background?

OK, I think I'm out of questions for the minute!

Someone always gets the warlock concept in before I do. ;)

I have an idea of a sneaky special ops type (rogue/fighter combo or rogue/psi-warrior combo if I can fine an appropriate PrC; something along those lines). Won't be able to have a sheet up until Weds at the earliest. So here is a sketch now:

Concept

Vin's family was never very respected; Tansarian expats living near the Tansar/Kysor border were never treated well. But Vin's father hated what was becoming of his country, and his wife's family was Kysorian. Being once a member of the Tansarian militia, Vin's father was able to give his new homeland some useful information---until the day he was killed in an "accident" with his mount.

Vin grew to dispise his former kinsmen, assuming they were responsible for his father's death. He was trained in the secret operation force for the country, the ones that would take him deep into Tansar and strike at them the hardest. And when the Palace job came, he was more than prepared...

Just wanted to double check that psionics is okay (seems so in the post); currently thinking a soulknife might work with the concept.
