I will draw you a thing?
In all seriousness I can reskin a paladin if you'd be willing to give me a little leeway on LG all day erryday. Like lawful yes definitely but I wanted more lawful neutral with good-leaning tendencies.

I am disinclined to allow the Tomb of Battle for the same reason I said no psionics; not because I have anything against either of them but because in this case I'm trying to tell a gritty, dark and cynical story that does not, I think, pair well with those particular mechanics. Huh. There goes my role as the comic relief.

Actually upon actually looking at the 3.5 paladin it appears I need 4 good stats (strength, Con, Charisma, Wisdom) and I only have 3 to work with.
Ok Concept change then, we're getting druid up in here.

Are there any particulars about religion or deities that I/we should know about? What's the pantheon look like? Is there a state church? A popular one? One that might be more likely to generate Cloistered Clerics?
Sidebar: 1. Can I use the Cloistered Cleric variant? 2. How do you feel about the rule whereby I can swap out the granted power of my Domains for the equivalent Devotion Feat (in my case that'll be Healing and Protection)?

How do you feel about the rule whereby I can swap out the granted power of my Domains for the equivalent Devotion Feat (in my case that'll be Healing and Protection)? Rules Questions FirstCloistered Cleric is fine. Swapping the Domain granted power for the equivalent Devotion Feat is fine. For the record N0br41nz also asked via PM about the Binder (which I said 'no' to) and the Archivist (which I greenlit), and @truemane asked about the Sacred Vow feats - specifically Vow of Nonviolence and Vow of Peace. I OK-ed those two with the understanding that I'll be strict about enforcing them and also that I expect them to be referenced in his character's Aspects; they would be a major part of his personality if he chose to take them. However I am not going to OK the Vow of Poverty or the Divine Spell List from the same Book of Exalted Deeds. Fluff QuestionsI'm going to be using the Greyhawk Pantheon, which is the one outlined in the 3.5 PHB. It's is a Pantheon, not tribal deities; gods associated with particular ideals are going to play nicely with any gods associated with complimentary ideals. You might follow a god important to your home town, to your family, or even to you personally - but worship of multiple gods is not considered heretical or even unusual. Even a devoted follower of Ehlonna may pray to Fharlanghn before a journey; that is his domain, and Fharlanghn is not distasteful to Ehlonna (though he would refuse to, for example, praise Erythnul before battle. Erythnul and Ehlonna are not on good terms). Clerics and Paladins are expected to be a little more exclusionary about who they worship. Even if Pelor and Kord get along it is difficult to devote yourself fully to the decrees of both; eventually there is going to be some contradiction if you're trying to put their tenants into practice in your day to day life. Devil Worship, worship of the Evil Gods and Necromancy are all related and all equally illegal and taboo.

As I said, I'm good at creating detailed characters quickly. You have two people who don't know who they're going to be yet, two people who might be a certain class...and one person who has already finished the preliminary process.

Throwing my hat into the ring for a... well, I was thinking an Archivist, but let's see where the dice fall and what the party might need instead. 1-6·1-6·1-6·1-6·1-6·1-6·1-6·1-6·1-6·1-6·1-6·1-6·1-6·1-6·1-6·1-6·1-6·1-6·1-6·1-6·1-6·1-6·1-6·1-6

Well, originally I was thinking about recreating my namesake character, Daos Soulstaff. But I figured two half-elf mages would be redundant.
Anyway, now we're at:
GravityEmblem - Male Half-Elf Sorcerer Martel - Druid? truemane - Cleric? Snacs - Unknown Me - Unknown N0br41nz - Male Air Gnome Cleric
So it looks like we might need a warrior and a rogue.

I've got my basic concepts for my druid done I just need to make an actual sheet. My holidays have been super busy but I should be able to get everything up and ready tomorrow. Definitely going Druid.

I am for sure going to be a Cloistered Cleric. So that, coupled with my 4 Strength, and some personal vows, will make me pretty much a total non-combatant. If we were playing Gestalt, I'd be a Bard on the other side. But as it is, I'll be able to throw around plenty of buffs.

Given the abundance of divine casters, I could roll something else instead. A Factotum or a Spellthief, for example, if allowed. It would be the same guy, with a few choice alterations.

The Spellthief is from Complete Adventurer, right? The whole Complete series is auto-approved. I'm also OK with Factotum.

I mean, there are seven of us, right (unless Jherek dropped out?) so having three divine casters is probably a good thing. One or even two healers probably can't cover that many people alone.
