[QUOTE="Vendetta, post: 1965446, member: 14961"] You know... I've never had the joy of making a character with a class from CW, CD, or CA and didn't know they didn't have "starting gold" Since the swashbuckler seems to be a rogue I'd say 5d4x10 but he is actually in the complete WARRIOR. All of the "warrior types" (Fighter, paladin, ranger... except barbarian (monks are not fighter types)) have 6d4x10... my rule of thumb is, always give the player the better of two choices... so officially, the Swashbuckler in this game receives 6d4x10 GP = 240 starting gold to you, Knight Uta As for the warlock... both the sorcerer and wizard are stuck at 3d4x10 gold. I'd bump you up but then others who might want to play a sorcerer or wizard might nix it and go with the warlock for more gold. No choices there for you, sir. Sorry... 120gp for you, hafrogman. Just so you know... there is a reason you get max gold in my game world (beyond me just being nice that way... I actually usually give max gold). Enber is a land of great wealth. It is not hard for anyone to make a great living, especially adventurers. So max gold better reflects this. Ashy... Since you left me with the choice... I'm sort of waiting until everyone's decided what they want to play so that your character will be what ever the group needs most. (as it looks at the time of posting, a rogue or cleric) I know you are busy right now and that might have had something to do with the choice to have me build this guy. So... the GM in me keeps me waiting. As it looks right now, you'll probably be playing a Cleric of Thorus Odara with the Good and War domains (Heavy Shield and Longsword weilding elf and a desire to kick people's arses if they are not happy... it is a strange place for a cleric of Thorus Odara to be. While Odara is a serious god, devoted to protecting the innocent and bringing justice (often he is referred to as "The Judge", a priest of his is often very much like a paladin.
