[QUOTE="Rystil Arden, post: 4003555, member: 29014"] (OOC: My adventures always have a rather flexible level guideline. They're usually extremely challenging, though balanced, such that the upper end is flexible, and there's only a non-negotiable lower end of "If you are lower than X level, I think that you will die horribly no matter what you do". Due to his 6 Constitution Almayce counts as being less than his actual level when making that distinction (and in the adventure I ran last for Almayce, it came true--an enemy who was mainly aiming for the other two casters accidentally one-hit-killed Almayce with an AoE. The other casters weren't hurt very much), so it is good to see that he was not placed in the top two adventures (though he does have a +Con item now at least). So for these, I would say-- Peregrine: 7+ at least, and if you want to contribute at 7, you should be a relatively Con-blessed character who is a caster or buffer and can thus stay in the back. I would say that a level 7 Wizard with Con 14 is okay here (16 is better of course), but Con 12 or below might be in danger. Level 9-10ish preferred. Terran: 6+ at least (MAYBE 5 if the character is a Cleric with high Con who stays out of melee, but don't push it). Level 7-8ish preferred. Tempest: 4+ at least, no exceptions, and level 4 character should probably be fairly resilient and not want to tank. Level 5-6 preferred Sylvan: 3+ at least, but any 3 is good. Level 3-4 preferred Undine: 2+ at least, but any 2 is good (1st-level characters banned here is a general rule, but if there's one with ridiculous HP and saves for 1st level, that could be okay on specific review, like a Monk with 16 Con and the feats Wild Talent and Psionic Body or something). Also there's a decent amount of RPing, which can be safish. Even so, level 2-3 definitely preferred Nocturne: Anyone can come, but level 1-2 preferred because this is where we have space for them) [/QUOTE]
