For this, I'm thinking a Half-Gold Dragon Sorcerer/Favored Soul named Ggraggar'degrellaran.

Other info and numbers and such will start to come once if/when you give the okay on the concept. Thanx!

Excellent... I look forward to seeing him

A side note since I do not have the Eberron main book at work with me, does anyone know if the Rakshasa are considered Outsider (native) or Outsider (Evil) in Eberron. I know some creature types were changed for setting purposes and it refers to them as Fiends (Outsider Evil), but the Monster Manual lists them as Outsider (Native).

Just trying to button up some character issues.

Looks like Outsider (Native)
 

OK I am still in the process of firming up the plot for this game but I thought I would post a little teaser. The very basic plotline (subject to GM changing his mind later) is that an artifact that might very well have had a direct impact on the destruction of the Galifar Empire and lead to the Last War, was supposedly destroyed 90 years ago but is being reassembled. The group must seek out knowledge about this lost artifact that was suppressed through powerful dragon magic, and figure out how to stop these evil doers. Of course now that knowledge seems to be ‘seeping out’ other groups are also seeking it, and they would like nothing better then to take it from the party’s cold dead hands.

The title of this story is “League Reborn, Terror Reborn”. Here are the titles for each “Issue” with a brief outline of the plot/story. Note that each part I am going to try and run fairly quick and fast BUT that it will take a bit for the first story arch to finish up… (just from past knowledge of running PBP games here. For example I’m running ‘Greyhawk, Return of the Slavelords’ we are only on part two of a six part arch, and the party is just faces some of the ‘servants’ of the Slavelords in six months of time :))

“Eberron, the League of the ExtraOrdinaries (LXO), League Reborn, Terror Reborn”
1. “Dreams of Lost Empire” – the forming of the League. Discover the propose of the League, take up your first quest, and see the ‘price’ of Imperial Dreams.
2. “Murder on the Starilaskur L-Rail Express” – seeking important information from a crazy Gnome of House Sivis can be dangerous, especially when traveling over 200 miles per hour… but its down right suicidal when you’re also accused of murder!
3. “Falling Idols” – searching the unknown, in the depth of Sharn can get you into trouble with the fanatical followers of the pure evil.
4. “the Eldeen Falcon” – head north to the Eldeen Reaches to recover a lost item from a druid… sounds easy enough if it weren’t for the Sky Pirates.
5. “Vampire Love Stories” – first mission to Karrnath where one of League draws the unwanted advances from a member of the Undead! Femme fatal ala’ grandee.
6. “the Stone of Knowledge” – search the archives and vaults at the Korranberg Library for the legendary ‘Stone of Knowledge’ that is said to have many secrets that will help you with your quest. Beware those that guard it and the green talons of those that seek to destroy it.
7. “Shadow Marches, Shadow Dragons” – traveling into the Shadow Marches in search of lost items is never fun, especially when dragons are involved.
8. “Battle above the City of Towers” – face those that wish to destroy Sharn for their own terrible dreams of power. Save the city, win the girl and maybe, just maybe learn what the heck is really going on.
9. “Memories of the Abyss” – to succeed at in your quest (and to save the world) race to a forgotten city in the heart of lost Xen’ Dirk… there you will face crazy giants, cultist and fanatics of many colors who all seek the ‘power’ for their own mad plans; yours just happens to be the least ‘mad’ plan of them all.

Sounds like fun. :)


NOW what is your character going to be??? Just wondering... I hope to start after the New Year when people can start posting regular again.

Also I figure that you will all be around 8th maybe 9th level when the first story is done. IF there is still interest, the 2nd story will involve an Invasion from Sarlona very similar to the second LOEG with the Martain Invasion :D
 

Karl,

sorry for the delay. I was looking at either the celestial or or the escaped criminal idea. Are either of them still available?

So far the two character concepts I am working on are:

Shulassakar: Bloodsworn Ranger/Paladin. Originally entered into the group as a way of keeping an eye out for Lords of Dust, but is currently having somewhat of a crisis of faith as his very black and white view of the world is starting to take on shades of grey.

Average Human or Half-elf with powerful intelligent artifact, that is constantly trying to possess him/her to get what it wants. Not sure what that is just yet. Not sure yet about classes: Hexblade/?

I will have one or both finalized for viewing hopefully after this weekend. Final character hopefully early next week.
 

I like that artifact idea. Very broken in a Alan Moore kinda way. That reminds me, if I were playing a Human Gestalt Ranger/Rogue 4, was there still another ECL +3 worth of "somethin'" that was out there to add on? Or am I reading an old post about exotic races wrong?
 

For my two ideas . . .

The celestial is a 'fallen' celestial, not evil, but simply cast down for an indiscretion (loving a human or other race woman). Working toward redemption and struggling with the choices and issues that he never had to deal with before. Half-celestial paladin/sorceror (or psion)

The escaped criminal is cursed . . . has been cursed and has tried to turn his curse into a blessing . . . and he ended up in jail for it. He was cursed with silence, stomping his foot results in no sound, clapping his hands no sound, speaking - you guessed it, no sound. Knocking over a glass that breaks -sound happens (assuming it didn't break in his foot). Who cursed him and why are up for debate if you like this character. Some sort of special silence 'curse'. Jailed for a crime he didn't commit, he escaped and has been staying out of the way ever since. Obviously, a rogue/psion.

Let me know which you prefer and I'll build from there.
