[QUOTE="Mallus, post: 6084203, member: 3887"] Thanks! So what level are we? Suggestion - just assign a starting XP total, it makes it easier, especially for the people with multiclassed characters, who have to evenly split their XP between classes, and can easily have uneven levels. Also, a brief description of Oban Isla: Oban is a cynical romantic. In a break from the norm for this type, he's both at the same time, in almost equal measure. He adventures for money and power. Enough of each so he can marry the women of dreams. The fair Dram Buidhe, daughter of his mountain hold's chief. Unfortunately, Oban is low-born and his clan's chief is not without a cruel sense of humor. After Oban proposed to his daughter, and she accepted, Chief Buidhe gave not-quite-young Oban a decade to prove his worth, which is to be measured in gold and gemstones. And then promptly exiled him. Oban is a cynic and Dram is wealthy (and considered comely despite hear near-blonde hair). The chances she won't be married off by the time he returns are slim-to-none. So Oban plans to return with a kingly sum, or a small army. Hopefully both (since there might be some Gamma World in this campaign, returning home with power armor or a laser cannon would be cool). Nevertheless, Oban is a romantic. He'll do this out of love, risking his life in the most foolish of get-rich schemes he can off: adventuring. He's [i]tried[/i] other professions; apprentice locksmith, soldier, brigand. None of which suited his temperament or ethics. Or paid enough. So now he's giving monster-haunted tomb-robbing ("a particularly vigorous kind of archaeology") and assorted questing a go. Appearance-wise, Oban's not handsome, by Dwarven standards. Strong-looking, but too thin. And he's got a nasty habit of adopting... [i]foreign[/i] fashions. Including a dandy-ish Elven scarf (which he thinks makes a nice counterpoint to all the weapons he wears). He's not daring enough to shave off his beard, but he does currently wear his in a human style, ie picture real-world hipster-farmer indie musician. Personality-wise, Oban finds most things... funny. It's how he tries to stay grounded, which is difficult in his line of work. [/QUOTE]
