[QUOTE="Mustrum_Ridcully, post: 4678506, member: 710"] See it this way: The DDI is the cheapest way to get all the rules material in the books (whether you own them or not). And a good way to get some fluff, too (Dragon & Dungeon for that). I am afraid I don't have really good news for you otherwise - it doesn't look like you get a good Character Builder without DDI, unless maybe you only want something that does basic stuff like telling you how many feats and powers you have or what your modifier for a given ability score is. The General RPG Forums has two threads and a few forks regarding this topic and recent events. Basically, offering rules material online (free or otherwise) is not appreciated by WotC, and this would hamper most attempts to build a (decent) Character Generator. I suppose there might be a way to create a builder where you can enter all a power details manually, but I think you could do this with an Excel Sheet already ) (Well, depending on your ability to use Excel or Open Office Calc) ;) [/QUOTE]
