Recruiting: Rowaini Musketeers--One for All and All for One!

[sblock=DM]
OK, here's a thought : Alise is a female Swashbuckler, she's a great artisan(armour/weaponsmith) and is skilled in numerous areas, as well as being a good fighter, but b/c of societal restrictions, all most people care about is her body. She wanted to join the musketeers in the hopes that she'll get to show off her true assets... Even if she has to flaunt her other 'assets' to get there.

PS, gp? (I read that magic in Tymandeu is 1.5Xcost, but I'm looking at some of the special materials, too.)

[sblock=dm] DOH! that kinda screws me up. whatsamatta, don't like Shims? *L* Allright, second concept requires a question: What classes from normal D&D are allowed?[/sblock]
 

[SBLOCK=Jemal]Generally PH only, and even then some are unacceptable in different settings--no Monks on Tymadeau, for instance, since that's eastern. Sometimes maybe base classes from not the PH may be allowed if I consider them particularly appropriate, but never if it has the same name as one of my classes because that's confusing.

What's a shim? If you mean girls, I play and allow female characters much of the time--just this time girls aren't allowed to be Musketeers ;) It's a societal rule that fits in with the setting[/SBLOCK]

A Shim is the common term for a male playing a female character (She/Him=Shim), I was saying that in jest.
As for the classes, I was contemplating more the idea of prestige classes for later on, and maybe something else as there's very few classes normally, meaning there's fewer ideas to use... The entire group's gonna be sages, knights, and swashbucklers.

BTW, I edited a post above you must not've caught it.. What're the starting GP?

(OOC: Jemal (I see no need to SBLOCK anymore--this might be useful for everyone)

I've never seen that term before.

No PrCs.

I expect Swashbucklers--that's probably what all of the Musketeers were in Dumas. Heck, we don't even have anyone proposing a Swasbucklers, which is really weird for Musketeers. Knights can be cool too. Sages I don't expect and will probably not be possible. Troubadours and Jesters (perhaps multiclassed) would make more sense than Sage.

Most of my games are Spelljamming with a huge amount of variety because they use every one of the classes in the document, but these special ones I'm recruiting for with one world each are special games with specific genre emulation in mind and much tighter restrictions.

@starting stuff, I'm going to deal with that later and work with the chosen players specially on that.

Well, my proposal when it's fully formed might be a Swashbuckler... it just depends on the differences between the Blademaster and Swashbuckler. :)
 

Hmm.. In that case, I'll work up a swashbuckler. I was just worried that we'd all kinda blend together since we're all the same race + class.
5 "Level 3 rowaini swashbucklers" would probably end up getting at least a bit of cross-over, with personality being the main difference.

That's one reason I'm hoping for interesting personalities and roleplaying opportunities. Also, don't overlook multiclassing as a way to distinguish characters. With my new classes, multiclassing is actually a highly viable option.
