I'll try a non-super (only have the core books)

I need to know more about the adventure and I'll come up with a concept.

Basically a cult of demon worshipers is ravaging the land. The group has been tasked by the local king to clear out the infestation. You are not the first group in, you're just the latest. None of the others sent any word. It is understood that a major temple of Orcus lies within this underground complex, and you must destroy it.

That help?

Can I play Melvos, my humble shield-bashing do-gooder that was thrown out of a PbP for being too powerful? :D LOL

I suspect he won't exceed our bounds. Post him so I can take a look. Keep in mind that the available sourcebooks are not subject to negotiation.

Room for 1 more non-super?

Would it be acceptable to play a Githzerai Psychic Warrior? The MotP suggests a +2 ECL for those dudes, so I'd be a PsyWar 5. Should I assume that their Inertial Armor requires no reserve PP to operate, as the basic species has the feat, and no Power Points? Also, may I use the online supplements on the official Wizards site? They have some pretty good stuff (like, Improved Intertial Armor, Psychic Weapon Master, Improved Intertial Armor, uh . . . something, Improved Intertial Armor . . . and . . . oh yeah . . . Improved Inertial Armor), and it's all online, so all free.

By the way, I'd use the description of them in the PsiHb, not the MotP.

Okay, this dude will be the sole surviver of a Rrakkma that tried to pick on some mind flayers who weren't exactly average. Lost 5 companions, including a good friend and a brother, but dropped three out of five Flayers. After the rest of the party was dismantled, there was no one left to get him (name . . . name . . . ah! Zzg'Tmtokkt, or Zig to those of limited linguistic capabilities) back to Limbo, and he's been wandering around for about two years. He's gone through about 20 or 30 different portals, many of which were required great trials and tribulations to activate, but never hit the ticket back home. He's been on the Material plane for about a month, living off the land and talking to the occasional passerby, when he hears news of the culty dudes. He thinks "well, not exactly too many action spots around here, this'll have to do," and heads over to the local head honcho to find more info on the cultists, and see if he can pick up a reward for "borrowing" some of the cult's more valuable items, as well as the lives of some of their members.

Basically, Zig is a care-free, high-spirited, and occasionally jerk-like, loner. He's skilled in combat and skilled in fending for himself, but years of working in Rrakkma have taught him that in many situations, cooperation between many is an absolut nesseicity. I'll probably make him CN or True N, leaning twords CN.

A quick question (or two)--does the alloted point buy include the ability + from level? and how much gold do we get / max GP value for one item?

OK, on Psionics, I don't care much for them, and am not willing to spend effort on additional rules. I permit the Psionics Handbook and only that book. The Githzerai is fine, just restrict it to the one book. The intertial armor interpretation seems fair as well.

The 40 points is for the initial buy. Level ups are as usual.

Ok, as for equipment value. Use 75% of the listed wealth for a 7th level character to buy what you want. That would be 14250, but I'll round it to 15000. The justification for this is that 50% is from cash, and 50% from magic items which you've cashed in (at half price of course) to buy what you wanted. That would appear to be fair.

At present we appear to have five characters. That leaves one more slot. Of the five we have four normals. I would like the last slot to have a super, so any other interested parties keep that in mind.

That helps a ton. I'm in. It looks like we have a psi warrior and a Melvos (I really like the Melvos concept!). I am thinking of a Ranger1/Fighter 6 or a Wizard. I'll see what everyone else is playing. I'm flexible.

Keep in mind that the Ranger in ths Campaign is the Monte Cook version. I don't know if that has any bearing on your choice.

Can I get in on this (as a player) :)

So far I see novyet, garyh, GoldenEagle, reapersaurus, and Jeph. That leaves room for one, right?

I haven't had much experience playing in PbP yet. I'm in Gamecat's Starfarers, but it is going pretty slow.

What is Melvos? Paladin, cleric, fighter? Couldn't tell from the description.

Sounds like no rogues yet, which is a strong possibility. I'm also tempted by either Paladin, Barbarian, or Cleric (hence my question about Melvos. I'll post again in a few hours with firmer decision.
 

Menelmacar

I don't have my PH with me, so this is just a rough idea.

Menelmacar, Heaven's Warrior

Male Human Rog3/Pal4:

Str: 12, Dex: 16, Con: 14, Int: 14, Wis: 14, Cha: 18

Feats: Skill Focus (Search), Skill Focus (Disable Device), 2 more

Former thief/burglar who served time, escaped from prison, was granted mercy by an older paladin, saw the light.
 

Looks like there's an overwhelming demand for non-supers. If that's the case, I can buy 4CtF. It's only $7, after all, and I had a good interview today. :D I'll need a little time to learn the system, but if I buy it tomorrow morning, I can probably have a PC posted tomorrow afternoon.

Let me know if that works.
 

I've just recently dropped out of DMing one particular game, and although it is hypocritical of me to consider taking up another... I'm interested. I don't know anything about Rappan Athuk, but I do believe its probably one of the better modules.

I could really get into playing a Lawful Neutral Rogue... of the curious type... or a Psiwarrior of the Lawful Neutral type...

As you can tell I have a lawful neutral background/theme I wanted to go with...

Maybe Drow Psiwarrior 3/Rogue 3... any interest?
