But I was wondering about using orisons....
I was also wondering, and anyone can chime in here about this because it's been a long time for me, if specialty priests can turn undead? I know the druid can't but I can't find any text, least not in the deity trilogy, about turn undead for the other spec priests...... (Scratch that, I found it. :) YAY!)
Man, we're going to drive the DM nuts with all these questions. Grin.
Just the *bonus* Proficiencies (from the bonus languages) are what I was meaning. Sorry about that. That was my question. If we get to use the bonus slots, then that's awesome!!
And Kuje, I can help you. Who are you a Specialty Priest of? And also, wasn't the Crusader an awesome kit/class?!  |

Oh, ok. Well, if I can help out any, please let me know. It is always an honor to be of help to my fellow scribes. |

You'll be meeting each other one night by chance at the Old Skull Inn. |

ok, was wondering about the arranging for someone to watch the dice rolls.
I used to use invisiblecastle.com for rolls, and it usually delivered. Mind if I lurk the campaign? I'd like to see a good 2E game; I haven't played that edition in PnP but I have a lot of respect for 2E FR and the game in general left from cRPGs.
The more the merrier. And hopefully if its successful it will encourage others to run pbp games. |

Class max is good. |

Oh! I'm not sure what books you have access to. Do you need any of us to post our class or kit for you? I know how hard it is to keep up on all of the different ones that are out there. |

I have access to many of the books. Just tell me which book you're using and I'll look it up. |

Ok... I have my character's first name, and now all I need is a surname. Does anyone know where I could look or have any suggestions on a last name for a male gold elf bladesinger? So far, I've found Alastrarra, but nothing's concrete yet on the surname. |

Your one-stop shop for elven names:
http://www.candlekeep.com/library/articles/elven_names.htm
I would really have liked there to be metadata on the names (can you tell I'm an archivist?), giving sources and subraces, but since elves can intermarry and sometimes you'll find more than one subrace with the same name, it's not completely necessary. |
Doggedly converting 3e back to what D&D should be... Sigh... And now 4e as well. |

Thank you so much!! And I agree about the etymology of the names. Reminds me of a 2nd Edition artifact I created. It was elven, named Tahlianna. I translated it to roughly mean 'Lady Blade' if memory serves correctly. I just can't remember where I pieced it together from. Thanks again, Hoondatha, I truly appreciate the help. |

You could also go download the Everchanging Book of Names and install the FR add on. :)
That said, I'm finished with my char, I think. Also, I tied my char into my Compendium article I wrote in 2007 about Corm Orp. Hope that was alright but it'll give the DM some NPC's to use if he's looking for members of my characters family.
And I need to know where to send this char sheet and if you can access Word .Doc files or OpenOffice files. If not, I'll just convert it to txt. |

Please e-mail all your character sheets to me. A .txt file would be preferred.
Kuje, which article is about Corm Orp?

So just send you a .txt file with all the basic information, gear, HP, AC, and all that? I *think* I can manage that. If someone could send me an example since I've never sent one before, I'd appreciate it. It's always nice to have a basis to go off of. |

That's basically what I did, I just took my Office doc and converted it to a txt file and organized it so all the stat mods were together. I.E, all the strength stat mods were listed together, etc. My Word/Office doc has them in boxes but txt files removes the boxes. :)
Edit: If you want, I can email you a blank copy of my txt file, just give me a email addy. |

For the cost of components, would it be all right if we spell casters bought the 3E component pouch from the Player's Handbook, and then just purchased the other items as we needed them and were in an area to procure them? |

ok, got the text file ready with the stats and stuff, just gotta work on a backstory, but gonna need to research the area as i'm not too knowledgable on it. Though its pretty much: Escape from Thayvian slave camp, travels east through Impultir and north, following the south coast of the Moonsea before heading down into the Dalelands.
Used a large belt pouch i found in the core rules equipment list as a stand in for the component pouch. |

All you need is the 2nd edition Player's Handbook. |

Also, a few of us are using some of the Complete books, like The Complete Fighter's Handbook, The Complete Wizard's Handbook, etc. Also, one or two here have made reference to Combat & Tactics. Also, I'm using The Complete Book of Elves for the Bladesinger kit and Elves of Evermeet for the racial modifiers on gold elves. And finally, the Wizard's Spell Compendium was mentioned at least once. I hope that helps a bit, my friend.  |

OK, there's a lot of enthusiasm here, and it's always a good idea in a pbp to tap into that before inertia slows things down. I'm going to start the in-character thread to our adventure. You can participate there as soon as you send me (or have already sent) a character sheet. |
