Hmm...I'm trying to think of what role a centaur could fill for the party...this is a toughie (though not as hard as earlier): scout's already been taken :)

I guess he'll fill the role of the party's marksman for the time being (18 Dex, soon to be 20). I'll most likely give him a reach weapon, but what kind has yet to be determined. (Greatspear?)

Since we have ourselves a cleric in the works, I'm going to go and blend my previous character concepts together and make this centaur an arcane spellcaster if it lives long enough to complete its level progression. I'll most likely make a Warlock, using a theme similiar to my previous idea (ElDo knows what I'm talking about :)): All that dexterity and natural armor makes for a pretty potent melee-capable spellcaster.

ElDo: Since my PC is going to start at Medium size acc. to the Centaur progression, how should I handle its height as it progresses from Medium to Large?

EDIT: After noticing that the Centaur has 6 Racial Levels, I'm not sure if using it is such a good idea...I'm running out of ideas, so I'm not quite sure what I'll do.

Apparently our Tech guys have put together character sheet hosting, and we might want to consider converting to that.

Cheers!

I'll link to that sheet when I'm finished, I find it to be incredibly useful.  I am experiencing none of the problems I noticed with the other sheets.

As a note, guys, Common is considered primarily a trade tongue, and not a "mother tongue". Meaning you can convey fairly sophisticated ideas with it, but not nearly to the degree and level that a regional language conveys.

Humans get a free regional language based on their region of origin (duh). Racial languages for other races are the equivalent.

EDIT: You might want to get with me to talk about languages.

Well I was going to but someone logged off AIM before I could.  :P

I already transfered Raynor over to the 3Eprofiler sheet.

When you make a character don't forget to make it viewable by people other than yourself.

*yawn* well, after a good 6-hour nap I've firmly decided to make a Elf Warlock to fill the role of the group's offensive spellcaster / marksman :)

Sorry about all the confusion earlier: 4 hours of sleep in 2 days doesn't do nice things to my brain.

Tiny question which I can't figure out: Was the Clockwork Army the name of the group which instigated the first underground movement in Vestin? I can't find any information on this, and the only group you mention is the Second Clockwork Army...

Captain Obvious

Here's my character http://thecbg.org/stuff/3eprofiler/view.php?id=5.
he's not quite done yet but he's almost there.

Also, ElDo, are you allowing stuff form Libris Mortis? (specifically True Necromancer PrC, deathboun/undeath domains, and some of the feats?)

As for the "Silent men" thing, my idea for that is it's a group that he says he's a part of (but probably doesn't exist), so that if i ever have to bring undead into a town or something, i can dress them in black cloaks and masks and use this as a disguise for them. also, this way, they don't have to speak (i'll say that all but one merber of each group of silent men, takes a vow of silence).

edit: where is the campaign going to take place primarily? (for background purposes)

I'll answer this! :) (I asked ElDo, and, like an altzheimer's patient, forgot in 5 minutes and asked again.)

We're starting in the Middlegrounds.

I've got my RL game group today, so don't expect answers until later tonight. As for the Silent Men, go ahead and e-mail me with the specifics, if any.

As for Libris Mortis, I'll allow the True Necro. Any other material that's non-core I also appreciate asking about, unless they are prereqs for the True Necro.

Hope that helps!

Supa: your link doesn't work. Did you make your sheet public-accessable?

Okay. Sorry about the somewhat deadness of this thread. The plan is still to go ahead and do this thing on this coming Tuesday from 5:00 EST to 9:00 EST. This may or may not pan out, but I've got the best hopes.

Also, anyone with suggestions on how exactly we should run this would be appreciated. I'm not talking about DMing style (although knowing your gaming expectations might be a good thing, too), but about the actual mechanics of running a PbP game.

EDIT: Not to sound like an ass, Supa, but I do sort of need a non-broken link to allow the character. Cheers!

A Sort of pseudo-initiaive order might work.  That way when you ask the party as a whole a question, everyone responds in order and you can summarize.  Sorta like the random encounters that have been run on here.  I highly recommend running combats like the PbP RE's, as that system seems to work especially well.  Anything else?
