yes but you still have to pay half the cash as normal
Ok, I still have to expand her history to make up for all the time she's been adventuring since 12th level, and change her appearance, but I believe her mechanics are all in order.

Permanent Spells: greater magic fang (12th level caster) on Preena, familiar pocket on Quillia's inner vest pocket.
Appearance: Quillia is gnome who has seen a great deal in her travels. Her skin is nut-brown from the sun, and her voice carries the faint echo of many accents. Her sandy brown hair falls to the middle of her back and is usually in a bun on her head, held in place with an elaborate hairpin. Her eyes are deep blue. She favors deep jewel tones of ruby red, emerald green, golden topaz, and indigo blue. She wears a tunic of emerald green, with indigo trews and shirt, and a golden topaz vest with many pockets. All have some ruby red embroidery, and she wears some red stone earrings and a necklace of the same.
When traveling, she has Heat, her pistol, on her belt next to her potions. She carries Headknocker (her quarterstaff) in one hand, and keeps the other hand free. She wears elaborately made iron bracelets, and a cloak that shimmers with a faint steel color. Occasionally Preena will poke her head out of her large pocket in Quillia's vest, which has startled more than one person.
Personality: Quillia is generally a happy person, willing to help others, particularly when it comes to something magical or alchemical. There's nothing Quillia likes more than conversing with another that finds magic and alchemy as fascinating as she does.
Though she owes her allegiance to Mystra, Quillia prays to the gnome pantheon often, often invoking various names of those gods in many expressions.
Quillia also loves getting letters from her family, and writes them all a newsy letter every couple of weeks. If she's within range, she'll teleport back for an afternoon with her family every couple of weeks instead. If not, she pays a premium to make certain her letters get to the Alamble family home.
She hopes sometime soon to find a suitable husband so she can settle down. There have been several men, one of whom was (and still is) serious, in her life, but her wanderlust has broken up most of these relationships. Her one serious love, a bard called Yilltre Garlondo, was close to working out, but both weren't quite ready to settle down. She also writes him letters, often paying a wizard to scry out his current location so she can be sure where to send them. The two have been exchanging love letters for years, and Quillia has kept them all. Perhaps one day soon they will both be ready...
In lieu of a husband and children of her own, Quillia lavishes her love on Preena. She adores the little pseudodragon and lavishes attention on her. She considers her more like a little daughter rather than a familiar. Preena has her own special pocket in Quillia's vest to allow her to travel in complete comfort, in addition to a fine assortment of shiny gems to play with. Quillia always keeps a small bag of tidbits for the pseudodragon to eat.
In response to the trust and affection, Preena is fiercely loyal and protective of Quillia. The pseudodragon prevailed on the gnome to have greater magic fang permanently cast on her so she would be better able to protect her, should the need arise. Rendered invisible, there's almost nothing Preena wouldn't do for the wizard. They both have a great love for practical jokes and keep a small book of their greatest accomplishments of humor.
Quillia makes friends easily, and once her trust is gained, her loyalty is unshakeable. Though she likes to say she fears nothing, she would be devastated if her family or friends were taken from her. That is probably her one deepest fear.
Background: Quillia grew up in Lantan, where the wonders that most would give their teeth to see once was the stuff of common life. Her father, Beldebarble, was a fine gunsmith, while her mother, Narilly, both decorated the gunstocks with carvings and fine metals as well as making the smokepowder. As a young girl, Quillia spent a lot of time with her mother in her alchemy lab, and learned to love the mixing and experimentation. She also helped her father in demonstrating his firearms, as it was apparent she was a crack shot. Her younger brother, Gilbaril, helped her mother do the fancy work on the guns, while both older sisters learned their father's craft. The Alamble family was prosperous and lived a comfortable life.
When it became apparent that Quillia was an incredibly bright young woman, her parents suggested that she might find wizardry worthy of her talents. She had a much more mystical bent than anyone else in the family, and engineering, while interesting, didn't capture her attention as much as sporadic mentions of magic in books she read. They look her to a wizard academy in Myratma in Tethyr, where she was tested and found worthy. Quillia found the mysteries of magic to hold even more of her attention that alchemy, though she kept at it.
The great wealth of information that could be found at the academy whetted her appetite to see the rest of the world. After leaving the academy, she traveled widely, eager to see magic in many parts of Toril. She experimented with different types of magic, learning to make her spells more powerful, as well as bringing the potent power of sound to her more destructive spells. She credits her development of her sonic magic to Yilltre, her boyfriend, as his bard's appreciation for the power of sound was something she hadn't considered before.
Several years ago, Quillia rescued a trapped and frightened pseudodragon from an encampment of poachers she had stopped with the help of some followers of Chauntea. Though she let her go the minute she was well, the little beast continued to follow Quillia around for the next few days. Finally the pseudodragon said she wanted to be Quillia's friend and companion. Touched, Quillia cared for Preena (as that was her name) for several months. Preena brought a great deal of love and happiness into her life, and on the one-year anniversary of their meeting, both decided to make their association even closer. Preena underwent the ceremony of becoming Quillia's familiar, and the two have become a force to be reckoned with.

In lieu of a husband and children of her own, Quillia lavishes her love on Preena. She adores the little pseudodragon and lavishes attention on her. She considers her more like a little daughter rather than a familiar. Preena has her own special pocket in Quillia's vest to allow her to travel in complete comfort, in addition to a fine assortment of shiny gems to play with. Quillia always keeps a small bag of tidbits for the pseudodragon to eat.
In response to the trust and affection, Preena is fiercely loyal and protective of Quillia. The pseudodragon prevailed on the gnome to have greater magic fang permanently cast on her so she would be better able to protect her, should the need arise. Rendered invisible, there's almost nothing Preena wouldn't do for the wizard. They both have a great love for practical jokes and keep a small book of their greatest accomplishments of humor.
Quillia makes friends easily, and once her trust is gained, her loyalty is unshakeable. Though she likes to say she fears nothing, she would be devastated if her family or friends were taken from her. That is probably her one deepest fear.
Background: Quillia grew up in Lantan, where the wonders that most would give their teeth to see once was the stuff of common life. Her father, Beldebarble, was a fine gunsmith, while her mother, Narilly, both decorated the gunstocks with carvings and fine metals as well as making the smokepowder. As a young girl, Quillia spent a lot of time with her mother in her alchemy lab, and learned to love the mixing and experimentation. She also helped her father in demonstrating his firearms, as it was apparent she was a crack shot. Her younger brother, Gilbaril, helped her mother do the fancy work on the guns, while both older sisters learned their father's craft. The Alamble family was prosperous and lived a comfortable life.
When it became apparent that Quillia was an incredibly bright young woman, her parents suggested that she might find wizardry worthy of her talents. She had a much more mystical bent than anyone else in the family, and engineering, while interesting, didn't capture her attention as much as sporadic mentions of magic in books she read. They look her to a wizard academy in Myratma in Tethyr, where she was tested and found worthy. Quillia found the mysteries of magic to hold even more of her attention that alchemy, though she kept at it.
The great wealth of information that could be found at the academy whetted her appetite to see the rest of the world. After leaving the academy, she traveled widely, eager to see magic in many parts of Toril. She experimented with different types of magic, learning to make her spells more powerful, as well as bringing the potent power of sound to her more destructive spells. She credits her development of her sonic magic to Yilltre, her boyfriend, as his bard's appreciation for the power of sound was something she hadn't considered before.
Several years ago, Quillia rescued a trapped and frightened pseudodragon from an encampment of poachers she had stopped with the help of some followers of Chauntea. Though she let her go the minute she was well, the little beast continued to follow Quillia around for the next few days. Finally the pseudodragon said she wanted to be Quillia's friend and companion. Touched, Quillia cared for Preena (as that was her name) for several months. Preena brought a great deal of love and happiness into her life, and on the one-year anniversary of their meeting, both decided to make their association even closer. Preena underwent the ceremony of becoming Quillia's familiar, and the two have become a force to be reckoned with.

Sorry for the delay people, but an electrical thingy out the front of my house downed my cable for like 3 days. Can people check out my PC so far and give me some feed back? Is the game going to be very 'build the best PC', because I don't really search for all the perks of the game, I just creating the character and picking some nice easy equip to take along

I didn't look at it as a "build the best PC," though it does seem to have turned out that way; I was just looking at the Savage Progressions and thinking that it'd be fun to actually use them, and the Warshaper. I had no idea that it'd turn out that powerful.
I'd say you're looking fine for the most part; I'm not so sure about Improved Initiative or Skill Focus. They don't appear to be prerequisites, they're weak feats, and divine feats (those related to channeling positive energy) seem more in-character.
Paxus Asclepius said:
Yeah, I'd have to say that Skill Focus and Imp Init aren't the most fantastic of feats, but I wasn't sure what type of game we were playing. Plus with the squillion books I've got I didn't know whether I'd get away with picking half the stuff, so I chose those because Imp Init may help the counterspelling (can't hurt) and Skill Focus, well, just because it cant hurt to have one damn good skill.....

Unfortunately, at epic levels, non-epic skill focus just plain sucks. For 1600 gp, you can have an unslotted item that gives you a +2 competence bonus, which is a lot cheaper than the feat. Save your feats for things that can't be done with items; that's one of the chiefest rules of high-powered games.

Background: Susanna grew into womanhood within the Cathedral of Illmar, one of the largest centres of faith for the deity Pelor in the lands. She was honoured to grow beside the child-hero Ethan of the Rose, a paladin who was destined by Pelor to free the lands to the north from the tyrannical grip of the Chaos Lords, a group of sorcerers that enslaved and conquered everything within their reach.
By her fifteenth winter Susanna had almost finished her studies, with only several years to go she would learn the powerful prayers that would allow Pelor to use her as a vessal for his powers. It was then that the Chaos Lords stuck, smashing the walls of the city with their powerful magic and slaughtering innocents by the dozen. Their armies were only a distraction against their real might, the magics that they hurled into the city slayed hundreds within minutes.
Paladinic Lord Ethan of the Rose, all of eighteen years old, rode the mighty warhorse Yulandaria from the gates of Illmar to face the dread sorcerers in a battle that would decide the fate of the city.
Susanna was in the third wave of refugees to leave the city, for she stayed long enough to see the Chaos Lords torture Ethan for a good hour before tearing his arms and legs from his still living body and animating them to dance for their morbid amusement. Their magic must have kept him alive for hours, even days, but Pelor did not help him, not even once.
For years Susanna lived in the southern lands, ignoring her teachings and working as a gardener in the city of Trunan until her 23rd birthday. There she saw a group of peasants fleeing across the countryside from orcs during one of her wanderings, and snarling at Pelor asked the deity why he did not help these people. The first time she had talked to her god in years, and he answered. Seeing that she still had goodness in her soul, no matter how small, he filled her body with the energies to kill the orcs.
She knew then that she would dedicate her life to helping people, her way, not Pelor's. Though not truely good, her deeds are always helping the people that need her most. After years of dedicating herself to fighting the Chaos Lords, she resides within the city of Trunan still, she keeps her job as a gardener and rarely reveals her powers to anyone, else the Chaos Lords take attention.
