I'll add more to the bio once I figure out how the RP starts.

I will be joining this, I never got a chance in the past to, so I will be joining one of the greatest role-play ideas in existence.

Name: Xenaria Rivenfort III

Gender: Female

Age: 27

Race: Human

Languages spoken: Human, (Common?)

Class: Duskblade (Master of Sword & Spell, it isn't a prestige class.)

Appearance: Our Female Duskblade

Oddity: Double-jointed thumbs, and is homosexual.

Generally carried items: Her amulet of wisdom (will explain in bio), and a torch

Weapons: Longsword (2), and a shield. Always wears her leather armour and cloak.

Special Item: Amulet of Wisdom

Special Skill: Not only can she fight well in combat, Xenaria also knows how to utilize mana stones into powerful spells, even though she isn't as powerful in the martial arts as a fighter, or as powerful in the arcane as a wizard/sorcerer, she has control over both, giving her the edge in combat.

Bio: Xenaria was born in the noble of of Rivenfort, (they are considered noble in this town, but nowhere else.) When Xenaria was born she was lead a happy life, and both of her parents loved her very much. At age six she began feeling the course of adventure running through her veins, so she began ti train in the art of martial combat, each day she progressed further and further, and after 2 years of work she became a moderate fighter. Bandits raided the city, seeing to it the no building was left unburned. Xenaria fought for her life in this instance, killing at least 6-7 of them. That was very formidable for her age, most of the town guard didn't even make it out alive. The aftermath was very troubling for her... In the fight both of her parents had died and the estate was incinerated. They spent the next few months building the town necessities, after 3 years the town returned to it's normal state, except Xenaria's parents, they were still dead. Xenaria was still regarded as a noble even after she lost everything, except her amulet, the last thing that she had from her mother she took it from her mother's corpse. She had been told that the soul's of our ancestors are held within it, each of their knowledges coming with it. When she put it on she felt a sort of invigoration that seemed to hold it's place in her heart, she was adopted by a man, he was a traveling wizard, he began to teach Xenaria how to use magic, and it seemed to happen a LOT faster than it would have normally, it is because of the amulet that she could catch on so quickly. After all... it is an amulet of wisdom. She now lives with the old mage Varen, in the forest. They live in a small house with their own farm, (and this is where the story ends, for now at least...)

I guess I should of added in that people will be starting quite low level, think around 2-3 ish

[Ster Zetanee]

Duskblade is a basic class, you can start it at level one. They have sword skills and some arcane spells, and can cast in light armor. I think they're in PHB 2, and the wizards site has at least one article on them.


It is not a core class, and all of the core classes are available on the SRD.

I might come back with a character for this tomorrow. You might need to change it to core classes, because there are some crazy basic classes, including my favorites, Boyscout (homebrew but awesome), Dragon Shaman (3.5 player's handbook 2), the Hexblade (complete warrior 3.5), and the Scout (complete adventurer 3.5)

[redundant_redundant]

fixed it (hopefully)

[tony1695]

fixed it (hopefully)

The Gary Stu-ness is still there, from what I can see. And the changes to the Special Skill and the weapons got completely ignored. I can see this being completely rejected again.

[redundant_redundant]

who's gary stu?

anyway, I didn't change the weapons and skills because I changed classes

[tony1695]

who's gary stu?

anyway, I didn't change the weapons and skills because I changed classes

A Gary Stu is a male Mary Stu, a literary term for when an author creates a character who, who every other character likes or sympathises with, regardless of allegiance, can accomplish any task no matter how impossible, and is generally perfection incarnate. Quite common in self-insert fan-fics. Which is what this reeks of.
As for the other things, I forgot to take that into account, though as a mage wouldn't a staff or wand be more suitable? After all, you can smash someone's nose into the back of their head with a staff.

most traditional mages would carry throwing knives. staffs are for travelers. as to the gary-stu, my character would hadley be able to conquere any odds. he isn't meant to be sympothised, this just gives him a reason to be a [censored]

[tony1695]

Do a Google image search. Every find that is properly a mage has a staff of some description.

eh, if I'm not mistaken, in D&D, it doesn't matter the class

[Bane Dragon]

Bio: he is a soldier of fortune, brought up in the streets most of his childhood, his mother was a prostitute. he doesn't care for flirtatious women. a man found him one day. soon, he was kept, doing what his mother was doing, only with one man. he hated himself. in a fit of magic, he oblitterated the man, and received something else: status. a warrior saw his potential and trained him into the perfect warrior, good with a sword, good with the pen, good with the spell.
he started taking part time jobs untill he had enough money to buy his own place. after a while, his money just grew and grew, untill he was kidnapped. he want's his life back.

Guess what? bolded part 1 equals sympathy from people who have souls (i.e. most people). point 1 for gary stu

bolded part 2 equals "can accomplish any task, no matter how impossible". point 2 for gary stu.

Ok, beyond that. Keaodan, would basitans be considered lawful only, and keidran chaotic only? =P Not that the rp needs them. Also, if I can, I'll make a character. :/ been busy with other stuff for a while.

Well not really, not all bastain and keidran have to be stereotypical to their species. Plus I think for this alignment shouldn't play a huge role. People usually play how they would with or without that kind of boxed restriction anyway.

That said if you want to put in a certain alignment for yourself and to help develop your character go for it.
But it is not a requirement.
