1. Age for a human ranger is 20+1d4, so you've got a 23 (Mature). That's better than the 16, since 16 is Young Adult for a human (mature for a half-orc).

2. Psionics! Congrats!
 


All right!

The party consists of:

Amirad, Human Paladin (Thondor)
Lidia, Human Druid (ghostcat)
"Kel" Greyleaf, Elf Thief (garyh)
Litlandial Mohindran, Half-Elf Cleric/Fighter/Magic-User (The Digger)

Unnamed Human Magic-User (Gli'jar)
Unnamed Human Cleric (Scott Dewar)
Unnames Human Psionic Ranger (Darkwolf71)

Post your characters here!

Still in development:

Creamsteak's character

The Old School begins now. Head over to the IC thread and say what you're doing on the celebratory day. You can choose to know each other or not, stick together or not... PbP makes it easy to keep track of everyone.
 


I'm going to step out at least for a little while. I've recently had to pick up a new project I have to focus on for a bit. I may come in begging for a spot at a later date though.
