<br />
you should have 5 grace points and 14 health points (total of 19 hp, grace and health points heal at different rates).
<br />
you should have an additional regional bonus feat (arcane schooling, education, or mercantile background).
<br />
studded leather provides a -1 armor check penalty.
<br />
craft(gunsmithing) is an independent skill if you wish to take it. Guns are almost unheard of in the Silver Marches so don't expect to be able to find smokepowder or bullets easily.
<br />
I assume that you took the option A bonus equipment (pistol, powderhorn & 10 mwk bullets).
<br />
Languages: automatic (common & Lantanese); bonus list (Alzhedo, Chondathan, Dwarven, Gnome, Ignan, Illuskan, Shaaran)
<br />
Skill points are 8 plus 2(int bonus) plus 1 (human bonus) [I assume that the additional one is your favored class bonus]
<br />
What is alchemist's kindness? I don't remember that one.</p>

<br />
(1) pretty set on 3.5 for the most part. i'm not sure how the rules will interact. as far as the races and favored class bonus, i would say that the favored class bonus will be brought in (choose class at first level and get either +1hp or skill point). i'm leary of pathfinder races due to how some racial bonuses affect other systems (such as combat manuevers), was there something specific you were looking at?
<br />
(2) as far as traits and regional feats go, i would say that you gain a regional feat as a bonus beat at 1st level. under 3.5, it wasn't a bonus feat. traits are basically half-feats to tie into the background of the character. <span class=messageboard-ooc>so Alder, sorry, add the feat back</span>
<br />
(3) this is pre-4e. year is 1372DR.
<br />
(4) backstory is as complete as you want. so long as the backstory covers your skills and motivations. as far as specific npcs, whom were you thinking of?</p>

Background and most character information is in the profile; I'm excited about playing the character as someone who has a foot in both worlds, both of the Uthgardt tribes and the very "civilization"-oriented Silver Marches, and can serve as a bridge between the two, with his music as a kind of symbol. Conflicts may pop up later on, especially in dealing with hostile tribes, but for right now he sees no contradiction between loyalty to his adopted tribesmen and aiding the "civilizing" Silver Marches. </p>
<p>There are still a few things to clean up, specifically equipment and wealth (I'm waffling as to weapon choice) — if you like the character idea, I'll take care of that. I also wanted to check: will we use the Book of Experimental Might rule that characters start with bonus hit points equal to their constitutions? </p>
<p>Also, for feats, will we be gaining one feat/level as per Experimental Might? I've picked feats from the Book of Eldritch Might (since they apply specifically to the bard variant there) and one of the background feats mentioned in the Player's Guide to Faerun but which I had to look up online. It's a pretty standard "+2 to two skills" feat, so I don't think it should be a problem, but let me know if you'd like me to switch out for core feats in either case.</p>
<p>Thanks! Excited about the campaign, and let me know if you have questions on the character (or if something in the background doesn't fit the time period or your version of the Realms...I'm kind of just pulling from a variety of sources and am definitely no FR expert).</p>Here's Alder Two-Fingers (alias of Burrahobbit), an orphaned bard originally of Silverymoon and taken in by the Tree Ghost tribe of Uthgardt Barbarians.
