Can we use the Dragon dwarf variant that has +4 CON, -2 DEX, +2 lockpicking? (it's intended to be a more social dwarf)

He said +2 La, this is a dwarf variant from a dragom magazine that makes them more social but clumsy (dex is more important than consitution)

Character sheets should be saved in text format and emailed to me.

Yes. I was simply point out that was the restriction. For Mr Bean as much as anything.

I'm statting up a halfling fighter/rogue. I decided against assassin because I didn't feel like playing a spellcaster.

Basic idea is he used to be a common outlaw. After robbing the wrong people and narrowly avoiding the consequences he decided it would be wise to take up a career that involves lots and lots of travel.

I see my character as the kind who is methodical and careful almost to the point of paranoia. Always has his weapon unholstered, never sits with his back to a door, violently distrusts people he doesn't know, etc. If D&D Dwarves are close to the stereotype, he might have just left the mines or some such.

I've made a Sorceror 5, Alienist 3, Palemaster 1, wearer of purple 1, Dwarf.

(NE- anyone but him gets troden over in a relentless drive to improve himself and push himself to a new level beyond these puny worms, theyre all against me, hahahaha, wibble wibble :twisted: )

I just need to flesh out the stats and backstory , the sorceror is the DF variant, The Alien and Pale are from Tome and blood, the wearer of purple from Faiths and pantheon.

the optimal size is 4-8, personally I would recommend splitting into 2 groups.

I was ironically referring to the superstition that a party of 13 will soon have one of their number be killed or suffer some other misfortune. I am aware that the preferred D&D party size is much smaller.

13 already? Hmm, I could just throw more monsters at you. Yes, that would work fantastically. How does a Great Wyrm Red Dragon sound? :twisted:

Realistically, though, I think we'll have to split the groups up, say into 6 or 7 each. Perhaps each according to their dominant timezone?

*Edit as well with M's question, I'm going to need abit of help with item kitting out as well.
