Concept is done and stats are half done. Hopefully tomorrow I can finish it off (sorry I've had a full weekend).
I do have a couple of questions though:
1. Are evil characters allowed? I wanted to play a LN Hobgoblin Rouge/Air Element Sorcerer but I was also thinking of leaning towards the Assassin PrC, with connections to Kech Shaarat, but obviously you have to be Evil for that. Which I don't really want to be. But if I want to take Assassin levels then I have to be... (man Assassin should be non-good restriction).
2. I'm not sure if I missed it, but hp for 2nd level are rolled or full hp for HD? I know 1st level is Full+Racial+CON, just not sure about 2nd.
3. I think that's it.

1.It's Eberron, alignment isn't as restrictive as normal D&D so, I don't think being an Assassin you have to be evil...especially in hobgoblin society...
2. roll 2nd level HP, use invisiblecastle or another dice roller.
Cool thanks.
I'll probably use IC. I have an account 'cause I have so many PbPs (current and past).
It's the goblin way of spelling it, not a translation by some know-it-all fop from Sharn. ;)
Ok , what specifically do you all WANT from your Dhakaani adventure? I'll get the game started in the way I'm going to, but where do you want it to go?
Ahem......[doing best Braveheart voice] "Unite the clans! United them!"

magic items and power. head of some sort of guild, group, or nation
Here is Haruuc.
I still have to fill in some stats (mainly because of Possessions) and the Background/Description, but I'll get that done tonight after I get back from work.
Just quickly so you can assign traits:
He can trace his lineage back to the Minor Nobility of the Empire of Dhakaan. Because of this he was stationed as a low ranking officer, but when his Sorcerous abilities maifested he was reassigned from the rank and file.

Glory for Dhakaan!
Personal Glory and Power (not necessarily wealth, but personal power/notoriety and magic) within the Empire for Haruuc.
That's funny, I didn't even realize until you said that and I went and checked...
You know I read that a number of times and it never even registered with me. Must have been floating around in my subconscious 'cause I came up with that name while out driving to a job. Weird!
I'll change it if you want.
Haruuc is ready to go (pending a name change).
Awaiting Traits and te go ahead to enter the Bloody Blade.

Everyone who's playing a hobgoblin from the mountain Dhakaan tribes, add a [[spoiler]] with how you feel about the Lhesh Haruuc, is he a strong leader? Do you want to usurp his power and lead the nation yourself? Would you like to be the Heir Apparent, thus increasing the power of the Dhakaan mountain clans?

Well you could always challenge him to a duel... ;)
Haruuc, where's Darguun Mauler feat at?
It's from Races of Eberron p. 108. It's a Racial Feat.
Let me know if you need the description.

Im thinking guile with him, then find some way to step in and take command... if i even get that far

He sees hmself riding high in this new Empire, not being one of the movers and shakers, but certainly having high standing.

Feel free to make up additional goblinoid words to add additional flavor to the game.
I made up a couple already:
Maka'akesh - An annual tournament
keshk - Sire
keshka - Lady (made that the femanine version.
Just try to make the new words seem like existing goblinoid words like:
Lhesh
Kech Sharaat
Darguun
Dhakaan
etc

Nope: I found it...
Now, Spiked Chain is exotic...and you don't have the exotic feat.
That's why I took Darguun Mauler. The feat lets me treat Dire Flail and Spiked Chain as Martial, not Exotic and as a fighter I am trained with all Martial Weapons. It meant I had to take a level of Fighter which didn't really fit with what I had in mind, but I worked it into the Backstory so it actually makes sense.
I put the Benefits of Darguun Mauler into Haruuc's Character Profile (right down the bottom - For the DM)

Rethal, we're waiting for you on the main thread. I don't know if you've been watching it or not, been since last Thursday since you've posted there...the game is afoot.
Everyone if you check out the profile for "DM Dhakaan" There are house rules and the growing Lexicon of Goblinoid words. If you don't you're a karuush'dae, heh just kidding, but look it up to see what I called you!!
