If you're talking to me, I don't actually have any D&D books, or even dies for that matter...

Appearance: A slight girl with somewhat sharp features, and dirty blonde hair that she keeps cut short. Can be mistaken for a boy, an impression that she tries to cultivate. Her brown eyes perpetually have an angry squint. She has a few extra changes of clothing when she needs to disguise herself to mingle above her meager station in life.

Background: Christine came from a dispossessed family, once members of the burgeoning middle class but now cast among the poor with the death of her father. She learned early that she had two choices to survive: Thievery, or prostitution. Choosing thievery, she carefully disguised her femininity, learning to pass as a boy (albeit an androgynously pretty one). Recently she has begun to believe that she hears voices from God, exhorting her to come out of her life of crime. She takes to the bottle in the late evenings to drown these voices out, something that she seldom accomplishes successfully. In her idle time, Christine dreams of becoming a seamstress.

Glancing over your char I noticed two things:

1) AUGH THE FORMATTING! IT BURNS!

2) Your AC is 16 by my calculations. (+4 Dex, +2 Leather)

Seriously Neophyte, did your forget a die somewhere?

Your stats are pretty average. I don't know where these other stats came from.

*glares at other players menacingly from behind virtual DM screen.*

What? I actually have IRL dice, so...maybe we oughtta consider some sort of script we can use so everyone can see, though. Just so Neophyte can have some peace of mind...

Don't blame me, it's the standard WotC statblock format - I got it from E-Tools.

Dammit...

I think I got my character's stats fixed. Anyone want to look them over?

They are correct

I used E-Tools! I couldn't have cheated on my dice!

So what's the rule about non-standard PC classes, then?

See OP for allowed supplementary and third-party source material.

I must say, this has been the longest character generation session ever....

Well, this is open until the campaign starts - which I'm planning for late next week. Everybody needs a chance to get their character in.

true....

so what shall we do before then?

Seeing how I may not have internet access for 3 weeks, I was thinking, I noticed that 8-Bit Fighter Prestige Class requires a year of training, so, if I can come in late in the campaign(if it takes place over a long period of time) thats where I could have been. I don't know anything about prestige classes, but yeah, whatever.

ATTENTION:

Campaign is officially Europe. Campaign will start in the British Isles late next week. Reconfigure your languages accordingly. Racial languages remain the same.

So, in this case, Common would probably be best replaced by English. Celestial would be Latin or Arabic, and so on. Don't forget you may want other languages of the area as well, such as Gaelic.

Players can still join in until the start of the campaign.

I would think that Common should be Vulgar Latin, actually - Common is supposed to be a trade tongue, not necessarily your native tongue.

True. I'll keep that in mind, and update it in a bit.
