Really loving the plot to this thread~ I was just wondering for the character sheets, is there a certain format you would like to see them in? ^_^

Side note: Are Tritons playable?

So, while we're not using mechanics, there's no reason we can't scour errata for interesting builds, right?

A further thought: What sort of power scaling should we aim for? I mean, we all know the potential of an unrestrained wizard. Also, how exotic are allowed to get? Like, I'm just assuming that Pun-Pun level shenanigans won't be permitted, but would playing, like, outsiders be acceptable?

Any humanoid that can live or visit a human city(even if the you have to use disguise self or polymorph). Otherwise, you got to convince me.

@vertigh0st

Just the basics of any character sheet. Name, species, age, all that jazz. You can leave out history though, in fact, I'd prefer that you'd reveal the character's history as it goes.

EDIT: I'll give a more fleshed out version of layout and whatnot in two days, maybe less if work isn't a bitch.

I'll have my Wizard prepared whenever your layout is up, and will continue to brainstorm until then.

So, it's been much more difficult to find lore about 3rd edition than I was expecting, but I have found out that kenku (what my character was going to be) weren't even a playable race until 4th edition. So.....am I still good to make that?

I'll allow it.

That goes for the rest of you as well. If there are certain things for your character plan that are of later editions, let me know.

Seconding this unanswered question. Even if we're not using the game's mechanics, having an idea of what sort of level range our characters should be based in would be a great help. Especially for those of us making spellcasters, since that would give us a clue as to which level of spell we can cast. Squish!

Max around ten or twelve. Players in the story are just city people who haven't really left. They may be skilled, but not masters. As for mages, I'll allow use of higher spells, but require assistance from outside sources such as a book, amulet, or allies in order to cast them.

EDIT: At certain points, I'll make it obvious that characters are stronger and more experienced.

How much freedom do we have to invent lore? Making a background in a vague high-fantasy setting is easy, but compelling ones require places and people. For example, I'd been planning on a knightly order/cult.

Send me a PM for something more specific such as your cult. As for others, same for specific things, but otherwise I'll let you know more Friday.

Don't be too put off by all the pluses and such. I can comfortably translate those figures into narrative strength, and, while I know we're not using mechanics, I used the Wealth by Level list in the DM's Guide to kit myself out. Seemed a reasonable benchmark to follow.

Probably have a character sheet up tomorrow. Thinking of playing an elf of some variety, unsure on class.

Slight change in plans folks. Due to some issues, the main thread will instead be released sometime over the weekend. I had planned tonight, but sadly not. Sorry.
