First Post
The Clan was bred purely for entertainment. Kranimatraxius, the ancient Green Dragon, kept a legion of gnomes in the lower parts of her lair for entertainment. Each week there was a Fight, where Kranimatraxius chose two random gnomes who where to fight each other. The winner was rewarded with a few gold coins. The looser became Kranimatraxius’ evening snack. One night the behemoth never came for the scheduled fight. The Clan, and more so the two would-be combatants, was disappointed. It was an honour, after all, to fight for Kranimatraxius’ pleasure. The next week was the same, no Kranimatraxius. For a few weeks this continued, until one brave gnome decided to go look for the dragon. A few hours went past, and the Clan waited anxiously for his return. They were about to loose faith in his return, when all of a sudden he came running down the colossal stairs leading up to Kranimatraxius’ lair. “She is dead! The Mother is slain, her head removed, and her chambers plundered!”
Panic erupted in the Clan. What where they to do now? No fights, no chance of being her snack. Now they actually had to make their own choices, but that was hard. A few more weeks passed before the Clan agreed to venture out in the search for a new master.
The Clan is now camped, all thirteen hundred of them, out on a plain rumoured to be the nesting place of a legendary red dragon, Ashardalon.
A few brave souls have decided to travel to the little town of Oakhurst, in the hopes that the inhabitants there might know where to find the old dragon.

Now for the crunch:
I want 5-6 players.
Starting at level 1.
Use the Elite Array for stats: 15, 14, 13, 12, 10 and 8.
Max HP at first level.
Wealth: You own 1 weapon and 1 piece of armor. You also have 2gp to spend on adventuring gear. This is for gear only, you all start with no money at all.
Race:
PHB Gnome only, with a few changes to the racial abilties:
Base land speed: 30. All the running to do Kranimatraxius’ chores have made these gnomes faster than their free cousins.
+1 racial bonus on attacks against Gnomes. This replace the +1 against kobolds and goblinoids of the regular gnome.
No +2 racial bonus on Craft (Alchemy) checks.
Favored Class: The DMG Warrior.
Classes:
All characters will start as a level 1 gestalt character. One of the classes used have to be the DMG Warrior class. The other can be any from the PHB or the Complete series. From level 2 and onwards the characters will only gain level in 1 class, so only the 1st level will be gestalt. You don’t have to be familiar with the Gestalt rules, I will be happy to help you with it if you need it.
Others:
I will want:
1 Old character (-3 physical stats, +2 mental stats)
1 Young character (-1 to all stats, but will most likely get a few gifts, offered by the elder of the clan.)
The rest might be anything from Young to Venerable.
I reserve the DM's right to veto anything.
I will choose the characters sometime later this week when I feel I have a fitting party, with interesting characters that will be fun to play. Most of the members of the Clan know eachother. They’ve been living together all their life, isolated from the rest of the world, after all.
Books you can use:
Players Handbook
The Complete Arcane, Divine, Warrior and Adventurer.
Races of Stone.
