The merciful Entity called 'The Damionovich' has overruled anything that discusses class restrictions based on race.

Thank you!

I double-checked and all race/class restrictions disappeared in 3.0.

[Clawsome]

pg 172 in 3.5. but GM has overuled it.

Good. We could use a nuker who can sit on Thurrg's shoulders

Those are rule suggestions for DMs who want to customize their world. They are not the standard 3.5e rules. In the paragraph before it has the list of races and banned classes it says the following:

I have had DMs use them and it makes the game more 1e and 2e. I always thought it would be neat to limit classes to only certain races like it suggests but also ban humans from certain classes as well.

The old old way was Elves were a class, Halfling was a class

[Damionovich]

Whoa whoa hold on now.....we're talking old school. Like before I graduated High School old school. You're gonna scare the kids with that kind of talk.

We need to discuss how much longer we should wait to attract interest in the game and what we want to do if nobody else is interested?

1. Continue this story
2. Keep the group, but change the story
3. Kill the story outright

[Clawsome]

I think the book and class restrictions scared some away. Don't worry. If need be we could have some NPC or run 2nd character each would be full group

[triedtherest]

We still have a couple of days, I say we go with the story as it is, but keep recruitment open, and new players can jump in wherever we are.

[Clawsome]

Do any of us have good diplomacy skills? lol

[Damionovich]

Not that I've seen yet and here is the tricky part, Humans, Elves, Dwarves, Orcs, Goblins, and Gnolls all have different ways of diplomacy and have different negotiating priorities.

You guys are going to have your hands full.

Posting tentative interest while I see if I the muse descends, and really based on the post rate that we end up with (I flee from slow games and any slower than 3/week will probably be too slow for me).

I see the restrictions for books, does anyone know if there's a way to restrict the SRD to specific books?

Any advice would be appreciated for those with far better system mastery than I, as I remember Barbarians being way low on the tier list.

p.s. If Intimidation is a Diplomacy skill, then I will offer my skills as diplomat, especially effective if someone has the ability to speak with dead.

p.s. I should be in the mountains from September 11 to 19th without access to the Internet.

Unfortunately, you can't be an Ogre because it is too high of a Level Adjustment. IF you want a good monster barbarian, might I suggest Orc. Full blooded Orcs get a +4 to Strength and no level adjustments.

Page 200 of the v3.5 Monster Manual has the Level adjustment listed as +2.

Then you're good...I got mine from the DMG which is good for some things, but not necessarily the Monster related stuff.

[triedtherest]

Doesn't an Ogre have Racial Hit Dice though?

Also, for the Speak with Dead ability, my Cleric will have it at 5th Level.

[Clawsome]

Just as Race, shouldn't they get whatever class HD they choose after that. So 2d8 then 2d12.

I thought it was either or. You can take the racial HD OR the class but not both. A lot like a multi-class.

If that is true, I need to fix my character. I was basing him off just LA 1 not on Racial HD it changes a lot. Might need to rethink character and class.
