Still Flaming- a modern-inspired D&D campaign

Galanodel

First Post
Your group walks into the command cenetr, where magical scrolls bewitched to recieve messages from distant bases sit, their messages being read off by trained secretaries. Behind you, a squadron of dragons and their riders are preparing for a launch into combat against enemy targets. In the next room, clerics and wizards work desperately, reparing wands and staves for infantry unit supports to blast away with. Rogues train their sniper bows down on the training field. A man rushes up to you.
"I'm so glad you've come," he says, "the Iolian soldiers have taken Targhestial Tower! Without it, we cannot launch our trident assault on their capital! We need your group to retake it!"


This is going to be a campaign set in the land of Iliha during a critical war. The two major sides are the Iola clan and the Elia clan. You are members of the Elia clan.
Battles are modern-inspired, which means they have strong elements of modern war, such as snipers armed with extended range composite longbows, clerics that function as medics, fighter pilots(dragon riders), tanks (slow-moving high CR monsters designed to take a lot of puishment), and much more!

I would like for your characters to start out at twentieth level, and be multiclassed, with maybe some prestige classes.
As for races, be any race in the Player's Handbook, and maybe some subraces from the Monster Manual.
If you want the stats and stuff for any Prestige Classes, I can send them to you.
Here are tyhe ones that i have and will allow to be used.
If you have others, use them, but make sure they kind of align with these classes posted here.

Cavalier
Darkwood Stalker(the Iolian miliatary mostly consists of orcs)
Gnome Giant-slayer(to defeat tanks and stuff)
Hulking Hurler(tentative)
Invisible Blade(good spies)
Justicar
Kensai
Knight of the Chalice
Knight Protector
Master Thrower
Mindspy
Order of the Bow Initiate

Hmmm…
What is an Ur Priest?I guess that would be okay, but keep in mind that we're onlyy starting at level 20.
4 classes?
You'd barely have levels in any of them…
Should I make a character, do you think?

I am looking at a barbarian/Bard/dragon disciple.

Started off as a Barbarian Fighter who has a bit of the 'bard' in him to rally his comrades, than he transforms into a dragon disciple.

His current role is to act as a liason between the dragon fliers and the ground troops. He assists the ground troops with there close air support.
 

That sounds sweet.
That really blends with the campaign.
And when he's not doing that, he can rage a bit to slaughter some enemy troops?
I started doing their stats last night, and a barbarian with Greater Rage could smoke through them… Still, there's the specialized paratroopers(barghests), the "blitzkreig" winter wolves, and the many other types of fiends and monsters upon the modern-inspired battlefield.

You did ask us to multiclass and take prestige classes. That does leave people with few high levels in any one class.
 


How do you want us to gen the characters. Point buy? How much? What is our starting money to equip?

How does someone on the ground talk to those flying in the air?

Ur Priest is a Prestige class from the BoVD, an evil god-defying cleric with a very good spell progression.
I'd prefer to make the character myself, just checking to see if you're ok with the classes.
