[QUOTE="RMcCall, post: 6274296, member: 6774892"] Cool ideas! The campaign will take place in a world in the ruins of a great empire. Most points of civilization are either impoverished or incredibly isolationist, and the wilderness is filled with danger and ruins from the past kingdoms. Primal magic is just beginning to emerge, so the primal classes will be treated with suspicion by townsfolk, if that affects your class decision. Warforged would be a good fit, they could have been used by the long-dead empire. Most were destroyed or too old to work, or are being kept by the rich isolated cities, but something could have resuscitated you in an old ruin. People will likely treat you like an escaped slave, since warforged are only ever used as automated soldiers. You'd have strong incentive to become an adventurer because you would have a hard time finding a paying job otherwise. As a half-giant (as I call goliaths), you'd be seen more as a wild monster, but you can pass as a really big human if nobody knows about your giant heritage. Half-giants are actually created in the Harry Potter sort of sense rather than Dark Sun, if you get my drift. Giant communities are small and territorial, so half-giants are pretty uncommon. I don't want to say there are things I don't want to see, because I want you to play the character you like. I'll just help fit it into the setting after you offer an idea. Whether you make it based on RP or team balance is fine either way with me. [/QUOTE]
