[D&D-3.5e] Ramknal: City under Siege, can a Dead God be reborn?

[Ithamar]

So is this gestalt or regular?

Also is there somewhere we can roll first? I hate making a character only to roll later and find out it is unworkable due to bad rolls. Or can we maybe just do point buy?

[dhibidy]

I think the consensus thus far is that folks would rather start at lvl 10 rather than lvl 3 gestalt. You can pm a set of rolls or you can use the link in the PM I sent you. There's a dice rolling thread there. generally speaking if you roll a set of sub par stats you can always ask for a reroll.

[Ithamar]

I usually gravitate towards gestalt when given the option, but level 10 is pretty nice too. I'll probably go drop some rolls in the thread and see what I can cook up.

Posting interest with a question. Would you consider a ratfolk character, using the description found here? Ratfolk are from Pathfinder, but it’s pretty similar to 3.5 and I can follow 3.5 rules throughout otherwise (I have a decent 3.5 library). The race fits well in a city environment, doesn’t need LA, and I’m planning on an urban ranger.

I'll admit it - I have a soft spot for roleplay heavy, intrigue type campaigns. I'll take a look around the game forum and see what happens.

I'm with you in much preferring 3.5e over 5e. I appreciate you starting a game with the system at a decent level.

I really like the sounds of this game. I'll have to dust off the 3.5 books and see what I come up with.

ya know, I think this can be worked in quite well. PM me, this has my creative juices flowing and I might be able to work some goodness into your character.

Nightshade come up with a char concept and let me know what it is. I will approve or work with you via PM to make changes. I am very open to letting players play what they want!

Ratfolk could use the were rat template, as well. Be a natural born one and he can change his shape at will. Just throwing that out there.

going that route would incur a pretty significant LA.

[Ithamar]

Jermlaine from MMII are +0 LA tiny rat-fey. But while they get great DEX & WIS, the rest of their stats make them pretty hard to play.

[JaredSyn]

True there is LA for them but they get good benefits as well LOL.

[dhibidy]

yeah I can see both sides of it. In all honesty I prefer Ith's approach. True he doesn't get all the kewl 'were whatever' abilities but he also doesn't get the +3 LA, taking a 3 lvl hit is HUGE.

taking a 1 lvl hit is big enough.... and worth it for item or cohort generation but 3 lvls….
