Me and Aly are just doing our duty as loyal servants of the all mighty DM and making his job easier.

Not that I will know his character is a Harper unless I start getting sacherin poisoning in mid conversation. :)

Any room left for a Rogue in the party? It's been a while since I've had a good game.

Read of mighty cobra of death. It hath been mentioned earlier in the thread. I shall repeateth the words of our illustrious and magnificent leader and say it shall be between 7th and 9th leveleth.

Sure. A rogue type character will be nearly indispensable in the game type I'm planning anyway. :wink:

Hmmm....maybe. Which book is that from? I never got the chance to play many 3E games, so while I do have the books (Only digital copies while I'm here in Japan though), I'm not totally familiar with them all yet.

Actually, in 3.5 its a core prestige class. Check the DMG.

Already found it at http://www.systemreferencedocuments.org. The class name isn't exactly to my liking, but the skills are. I'll take it.

I think I'm going to have to go with a sorc simply for the defensive flexibility that offers. 7-8 dispel magics even without metamagic is quite, quite handy. 'sides, the party's overstuffed with wizards in any case. :)

*Shrugs* It's still a fairly good class for the type of Rogue I play. It's a bit of a tossup between that or Assassin for my prestige. I prefer being able to play Lawful Evil if possible, which might make playing the Trickster a bit of a pain.

I'm sure we will. :lol:

If I didn't gave a thing about having to work for others, I'd even consider saying I was a Zhent agent, and see where that'd lead with the harper & deserter. Oh well.

You're right. I didn't study it closely and remembering Alyrium's comments about snakes in a pet thread . . . . .

As for frog monster there is always my personal favorite: Slaad.

My player's encounter with a White Slaad was priceless.

An Assassin, a Zhent, a Harper a Torm Cleric and a Sune Paladin. Sounds like an opening to a joke with a massive body count...

This game is going to be sooo violent! :twisted:

I might be the first casualty:

Harper: so you're from Zhentil Keep?

Cleric: You abandoned your responsibilities to your unit and your family?

Assassin: You're a deserter?

All three: KILL HIM! :lol:
