Vasorn, The World Under Dragonfire - Calling all players!

True dat yo. Svirfneblin got some sweet racial abilities. :)

Ok, and I hate to do this, but I'm pushing back the start date yet one more day. Yeah, I'm a gaming slacker, but it's for the excellent reason of getting schoolwork done. So, keeping Real Life a priority, I'll catch up to you guys real soon. Most likely Thursday, because I only have one class and no pressing assignments. So yeah. Soon. :D

As I am no caster, I must take a spell in cast on another person list, and none are interesting, so I will stay like that. It is pretty good like that and less trouble some.
 

Gortag Background:

Born in an orcish tribe, from his youth, he was seen by the leader as one who will become a great warrior. He was as strong as many heroe's of the tribes told in the stories of the wises. He wasn't the brigthest of the warrior, but his strength and endurence was with no compare, and he was wise to not do things he was knowing he couldn't do.

With the years, he became a berserker, one who's rage give them great strength, and his was unbeatable, splitting his enemy in two with his axe. But when the dragon came for his tribe, it wasn't enough. But the worst, he didn't die on the battle field, as he sould had. The dragon was coming to get the best of their warriors for his own amusement, and he saw Gortag as the one with the best potential.

Him and 3 other member of his tribe was taken alive. They were carried in the arena. There, they starts to train in the modern art of war, where the tactics is a good as the honor and the strength. One by one, his clanmates were falling in the arena, against stronger opponent, but for him, it was easy ones. None were his match. He became familiar with the arena combat, and became better. The dragon was very proud of him. It seems his victory was pleasing his master. After a whole year, the true challenge arise. Figthers of great experience, true gladiators, all were worthy opponent, but the strength of the berserker was too great to be beaten. His master was pleased, but strangely, there was something he liked in the sound of the crowd.

One day, his master has come to give him a gift to carry in the arena. An a plate armor made by the child of his master at his honor. The amor was looking like a dragon. The whole armor was made fom a rare metal called adamantium, stronger than steel. He had to carry it for his next combat.

The combat came. When he entered the arena, an elf, one of his master follower was telling a story where his master had fougth with courage. The armor was pretty heavy, Gortag was feeling uneasy in it, but when the combat starts, it take no time to end it. More blow than usual was hitting him, but rare was the one piercing the armor. When he hit the opponent weapons, it broke in two. His opponent, desesperate, try to grab him and immobolize him, but the scale ripped the skin of his opponent, and Gortag killed him with his fist.

Two other combat followed without giving him a rest, and he won both. When the time was coming to go back to his cell, his master left him the armor for the night, and told him he should need to polish it when he would came back the day after to take the armor. It is during that night the elf came to him. He thought at first it was to take back the armor, but the elf wanted to escape and wanted his help. Gortag, wanted to avenge his tribe, and it is not by staying in his seel doing his master binding that he would be able to do it. He would miss teh crowd, but he would get his chance to fall in the battle field against the dragons and finish his live as a tre warrior, and maybe, even avenge his tribe by killing his master.
 

Hello, if you are still looking for alternates, it would be my honor to be one. I am of course a newbie in every sense of the word and would need a little help, but if you would be willing to teach, I would love to be a part of such an awesome sounding campaign. If you're interested, the character I would want to play would be a straight Human: lvl 4 Monk/7 Chi (Ki) Warrior (Prestige Class from Mongoose) who'se taken a Vow of Poverty. Since weapons training is so scarce, it would seem logical that an unarmed fighting tradition would have been maintained in secret due to the virtual inablity to detect it (no weapons and no actual magic. Its practitioners depending, rather, on the individual's inner strength, i.e: Chi). Thanks for taking the time to consider my request, considering I replied so late :)
 


Resistance Mages? I don't know that spell. If you're talking about some kind of magic resistance for your character, the answer is probably no, not for 1,500XP. Or did you mean something else?

Lu Wei Fong - I'll put you down as an alternate. I like your character concept, however I am not using that Mongoose book, so you would be unable to use that PrC. Also, which Vow of Poverty would you be using? The one from the Book of Exalted Deed? From the Book of Hallowed Might? A different book all together?

Sorry, I mean the in-character source of the spell being cast upon our characters would probably be the same : mages from the underdark belonging to the resistance.
 

Thank you very Much, Isisda :) The Vow of Poverty would be the one listed in the Book of Exalted Deeds. Do you not want the Chi Warrior PrC because you don't like it or haven't seen it? I would of course be happy to send the stats/prereqs to you if you would like to consider it. Otherwise, I will of course respect your desicion. Thanks much :)
P.S: I don't know exactly how the point buy system works. Is that every stat starts at 10 (or some other pre-determined #) and then we have 35 points to allocate as we see fit to the abilities? Sorry for the sickeningly newbie question :(
 

Dr. Zombie, ok I get it now.

Lu - To do a point buy, take out your 3.5 DMG and turn to page 169. That should answer your questions.

As for the Chi Warrior, I am not particularly enamored of the Mongoose Press stuff, so I'm going to have to decline that one. I may consider a different PrC though from a different book, so you can propose a different one.

Now, if someone drops out, the other three guys ahead of you on the list get first dibs, but if they don't jump on it, then you'd move up. If you want to create your character now to avoid delays if you get a spot, or just for some character creation practice I'm fine with that. :)
 

Alright, I can do without the PrC I guess :p Would you be willing to allow a few things from the Quintessential Monk and a generic Feat book they put out? Thanks much. :) Also, though it shames me to admit it, I only have the PHB in 3.5 :( my DMG is still woefully 3.0
