His other defingin quality was his genral attitude toward the gods.  As he once stated to an NPC Cleric: "Fear the Gods?  Yes, I fear the gods...I fear my grandmother too, but you don't see me praying to a statue of her now do you?"  For a while I also played a second character to help round out the group when we had some one drop out on us.  She was a halfling rogue and very devout, I played them off one another, even though they were best friends.We only played those character up to a few levels, but eventually he was going to go off in search of his true heritage, seeking the dragon that had founded the elven Storm clan.IIRC, I think I took Improved Initative,but if I was recreatign him I would either go with Weapon Focus(ray) or if the DM allowed material from Dragon, one of my own Arcane Ancesty Bloodline feats.  While the Dragonbloodline fits the existing character, I probablly would go with Air to reflect the thematic nature of his spells.How much tweaking are you allowed?  I have always thought that playing a typically evil race seekign redemption would be fun.  If creating a second level character you could try a Rouge/Paladin Goblin who had been spared by the forces of light and now seeks to find peace from his past evils, and maybe even symbolically redeem his people.</blockquote>
