And those players have so many options. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />My players have told me that they've decided what they're playing. Let's see if they keep to it. Some have ideas for the beginning of their characters; some have goals for later development.Human or Half-Elf Bard (Complete Adventurer). Sarah told me that she wanted to play a Fochluchan Lyrist. So, she's been trying to work out what path to take to that class. Start as Bard, Rogue or Druid? Eventually, she's decided to begin as a Bard. I think. And probably human. Or a half-elf. Hmm.Dwarf Soulblade (Races of Stone, Expanded Psionics Handbook). I thought Adam would be playing a ranger. It's what he said he'd do when the group discussed this. I was slightly surprised when he decided on the soulblade. (Not utterly, as he loves psionics). What's the Races of Stone influence? It's the Focused Shield feat he wants. (+1 AC when psychic focused). Halfling Druid (Races of the Wild) Dave wanted to play a Radiant Servant of Pelor. Then he learnt that (a) I'd played one recently, and (b) there's one in another game I'm running. Suddenly the character concept was too popular. He decided this yesterday, so we had to come up with another concept. This morning, I sent him a few notes on the Arcane Hierophant and the Halfling Druid substitution levels from RotW. I got an e-mail back a couple of hours later: he's bought RotW and is playing a Halfling Druid. Not a clue on the Hierophant yet (it's a Druid/Wizard multiclass). I'll learn that tomorrow.Human Scout (Complete Adventurer) Gofa likes rogues. He *really* liked the scout. He's remained constant in his affection. (He played a Sorcerer/Mindbender and a Samurai/Ronin in the last game).Azurin Totemist (Magic of Incarnum) Daniel thinks the Totemist is neat. So do I. I've no idea what soulmelds he's choosing, but I'm pretty sure Kruthik Claws will be one of them. I now have to work out how this class fits into the druidical society of Ulek. Hmm.Azurin (NG) Incarnate (Magic of Incarnum) Greg was playing a Wizard/Archer last game - and the only player to be there for the three years of the campaign with the same PC. He wanted something new, so I suggested the Incarnate. He's trying to grapple with the low Base Attack, which is most noticiable for the Good Incarnates. It'll be very, very interesting to see how this PC goes. I've suggested a Incarnate/Wizard/Soulcaster to Greg, but we're waiting to see what happens next.So, the session starts tomorrow. Goblins, a Blue, Necrocarnum Zombies, NE Incarnates and a swarm of spiders await!Cheers!</blockquote>
