Greyhawk Campaign.

Hello peeps. I'm attempting an ongoing session of DND with core settings. Here's some stats for character creations.

Statistics as follows-
-Must have access to 3.5 books. if anyone doesn't want to buy the 3.5 source books, a -lot-, if not pretty much all, of the stuff that is in them is also here - http://www.systemreferencedocuments....sage/home.html.
-If you have a book that is not the Players Handbook, Dungeon Masters Guide, and Monster Manual, and want to use something out of it then ask me first (must also be 3.5).
-Limit 6 players
-Must have Dice (obvious) If you don't have any dice, then go to http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/welcome and click on the purple die to the left of the page. It should pop up a dice roller.
-Campaign setting- Greyhawk
-Trust is everything. If I get players then I do trust you to play without CHEATING.
- Character creation is much different than rolling dice.

Character creation-
Class- All (and only) core classes from Players handbook are allowed as well as all prestige classes. Once again, if you have a book that has a prestige class that is not the DM's guide, tell me what it is, and if I don't have it, write it out with your character sheet here.

Races-
Human
Dwarf (All subtypes)
Elf (All subtypes)
Half elf
Half orc
Gnome (All subtypes)
Halfling (All subtypes)
Full orc
Tiefling
Aasimar
Goblin
Kobold
_____
(The races below recieve a Hat of disguise as a bonus item because of the level adjustment and there appearance)

Hobgoblin
Bugbear
Lizardfolk
Drow
Duegar
Orog



Ability score- You have 28 points to spend and all ability scores start at eight.
Here is the chart, READ IT ALL BEFORE ASSUMING-
Score/Point cost

8-0
9-1
10-2
11-3
12-4
13-5
14-6
15-8
16-10
17-13
18-16

HP- Max at first level and average after that. Here is a chart to determne the hit points

First level-
D4- 4+con
D6- 6+con
D8- 8+con
D10-10+con
D12-12+con

Beyond first level-
Round down until you recieve another .5
For instance 2nd level fighter base is 15 +con
3rd level fighter base 21 (5.5 + 5.5 + 10)
D4- 2.5+con
D6- 3.5+con
D8- 4.5+con
D10-5.5+con
D12-6.5+con

level-1
Gold- 100 (No matter the character class)
Items- Up to Medium items. Major magic items requires you to special order it which takes 1 day per 1000 gold minimum 1 day.
Leveling up- requires a weeks DOWNTIME Training as well as fifty gold, meaning, I will tell you when downtime is. If you train on a non-downtime time, I will keep track of the time it takes.
Combat- I will determine if you have attacks of oppurtunity from monsters while moving. Tell me where you move specifically or I assume it is just in attack range. (Example- Lidda the rogue is behind an enemy,
Redgar announces to the dm he will move to the flanking position of the monster with lidda. Example 2- Lidda the rogue decides to avoid attacks of oppurtunity by tumbling. She announces she will tumble behind an enemy to flank with redgar to get sneak attack.
Feats- all feats from 3.5 books allowed as long as you have the prerequisits. Again, tell me the book or write the description so
I know what feat it is if it from another book.

Tell me about yourself-

Your race
Your class
Your listen, search, sense motive, and spot (Example, if I were to tell you to make a spot check, that would automatically signify that there is a monster in the room)
Your equipment, all of it no matter the mundaneness
Your spells, powers, and the like (If any)
Your name
Your weight (with equipment)
Your Origin (I will talk of that in a moment)
Your City Feat (I will also explain in a moment)
Your most hated enemy (Which can be a group of people like a guild or church, a single person, a race, a class, or an alignment that you hate like you hate all evil or all good)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
These are of importance so please tell me everything about your character listed here.

Now then, your origin. You have several places to choose from. I will list them off here.

Balgera- The market city, trade, guild, and port city. This is the center of the 10 cities.

I'll think it over. Between running my campaign, doing the SE:R story, my own writing and wanting to get into playing NWN again with Fas I may not have the time to join up.

Would we be starting at 1st level or another point?

Yep, right after the section on hitpoints.

level-1
Gold- 100 (No matter the character class)

Well as I said before "if I have time". Would I be able to incorporate a psionic class into this game? Making my character in the story thread I'm working on has made me interested in actually playing as one.

As long as you go by the SRD. I don't actually have the Expanded Psionics Handbook, but those are accurate enough for now. So go right ahead.

Alrighty, I've got the book but I'll go by that site. It IS missing working links though, so far I just found the Psionics prestige classes missing. That won't matter at 1st level though.

I'm lost on what to actually DO with my character. There's a few options I've been considering that involve those prestige classes. I may just make a few and see what takes my fancy most.

That suxxor. Sorry about that dude, but if you do join, tell me now what your character WANTS to be in terms of prestige classes and I will make it for you. Just describe your character and I will try to accomodate you with a self-made prestige class.

Hmm, I like the thought of the Psychic Warrior class, but with a monk instead of fighter, if that makes sense? Same powers involved and set-up with that, but no armor, and unarmed focus. Monk unarmed damage, speed, possibly the wisdom AC bonus and maybe bonus feats instead of the normal monk feat progession as it's set up on the list? That way, I can select the feats I want, including those on the monk list, or those in the player's handbook?

Something along those lines. If not, I'll think of something else. There IS a prestige class that you start as a monk, and join and it effectively gives you the psychic warrier type abilities, while you keep your monk progression. I could send the to you if you wanted?

There is an ACTUAL class for that specifically. It is called the fist of Zuoken. It is in the 3.5 psionic book and it is nuts for a prestige class. Let me call my bro and get the class for you real quick. I'll edit this in a sec.


EDIT:

I got it yeah, don't worry about it.

I like a bunch of them, but the two that stand out most were trying to make the Soulknife class and alter the mindblades into Kama's and use with the monk class. I like that one, but don't think that would work, if it did, that would ROCK. OR mix the Pyrokinetist class with the monk so I'd do fire damage. That only goes so far until I reach a fire resistant person though.

I'd let you do that. Be a soulknife and alter the weapon from all swords to all slashing weapons. Not that different really and it wouldn't affect me one bit, though it would affect the monsters you guys fight. (Laughs and evil laugh)

Oh I like that. Yeah, I had the thought of the monk guy, who could run around like crazy, throwing mind blades and then busting out with mind blade kama's. I'm not sure if I should stick with making them dagger mindblades, or if I could make them shuriken's? They'd do one point less damage, but it would fit my character better you know?

Gotta say, Mind Shurikens sound pretty cool. But that would defeat the purpose of soulKNIFE don't you think?

I'd think that the kama would be reasonable enough to let you use it as a soulknike. However, that would make Fist of Zuoken obsolete. Key name FIST. But hey, it is your character and you can do what you want with it within my rules and I won't have a problem with that.
