I am willing and able to play a barbarian. More focused on inner rage problems than wild rage type seeing as we are in a structured society. I'll have a character done asap.

For our bgs, we can pick any of the Matron's 2nd to 5th born children as our sire, right?
Aside from the fact that we're all secretly liberals, is our house unique in any other ways? I remember from the books that one house specialized in psionic talents, while another heavily invested in kobolt soldiers. What is our house like? Or is that something for us to shape as the story progress?
The beginnings of a barbarian.
I'm having serious problems in the choosing of the animal companion. Since you said I also had surface training, I was looking for an animal that would adapt to live either in the underground or in the surface.
I saw the dire bat, but was also interested in a dinosaur. I thought of the possibility of discovering some ancient cave where evolution stopped (quite like "Journey to the center of the earth") and befriending a new-born tyrannosaurus.
But I'd like to hear the opinion of the GM before actually write it down in the character's sheet. Which one do you have less problem dealing with? Or should I just not think too much, and take a traditional wolf?
To the other players, could you please post which child you chose to be born to? This way, if some of us chose the same, we could organize better and avoid confusions.

I say let chance decide...
child 2 = 1
child 3 = 2
child 4 = 3
child 5 = 4
child 6 = 5
3rd child it is. I envision him to be one of those male middle children who just bland into the background. Secretly, though, he's in charge of training House Rilynghym's (mostly male) assassin squad. As his child, my rogue character has learned to how to appear harmless in appearance, but deadly in sudden combat.
Here's your resident wizard.
I'll take child 6 as sire. My mother I suppose.
Sorry to say this Raven, but I'm gonna have to drop out. Too much goin on right now and I have a lot of other PbP's that need love. Sorry, I'm sure you won't have a problem filling my space though. Thanks for the opportunity.
I'm going with child n° 2 as sire, if nobody objects. Probably my father.
This will be my (Brasspigeon) cleric (when I finish her).
I'll take child 4 as sire, Miu's late mother.
Just to be sure: Lolth's favoured weapon is the dagger, right?
Also: do we use the Drow Noble or normal Drow for characters?
I'm using Pathfinder Excelerator to make my character, it doesn't matter for ability scores since they're set but it does for abilities like spell resistance etc.
Raven, may I email you my background? Just so that you can correct it, because, being unfamiliar with the setting, I used very much fantasy in writing it and I'm afraid I might have written some absurdity or non-sense.

I'm going to be creating a fighter. Dex based going for duelist (in fact he'll qualify next level) I need to know the House name since that's going to be part of his name as well.
The house name is Rilynghym. (from discussion thread)
I am going to control copy the original character creation rules that Raven first posted in the discussion thread here so that we won't be needing to go back and forth:
Stat array 18, 16, 14, 13 12, 10 (the racial adjustments are not factored in)
We will use pathfinder core rules only
All clerics worship Lolth (she is NE)
The setting is sometime before Lolth's disappearance in the forgotten realms
Hp max level then half plus 1
All starting characters get one fate point, basically you can use it to survive an encounter
Free feat daylight adaption (you have been trained to operate in bright light so no penalties)
Equipment 1000gp
Plus Elven chain+1 (bracers ac 4 for wizards sorcerers or monks)
Elven cloak
8 doses Drow poison (last one hour if put on blade dc 13 fort save)
Two +2 equivalent weapons
Any one other item of 4000gp or less
There, now everything is in this thread. I'll post my character later today.
Profile construction commenced.
Wilhem here, working on my rogue. Do we get traits, btw?
Oh, and I forgot to add to the character creation rules above, don't forget to add the +1 to your ability score at 4th lvl.
This my (Ravn) fighter. The stats are pretty much done, though i might make some minor changes.
I will do as Wilhelm and roll for my sire. Maybe i will have a brother or sister..
child 2 = 1
child 3 = 2
child 4 = 3
child 5 = 4
child 6 = 5
And this is my (Lyonard) ranger. I'm waiting Raven to answer my email and then my character will be ready.
Got a quick question. I noticed the Drow's weapon familiarity list is compose of only hand crossbow, rapier, and short sword. The elf's list includes any weapon with “elven” in its name. For the purpose of this campaign, since we're noble Drows, can my character treat the Elven Curve Blade as a martial weapon?
Sorry to be a bother, but can I swap out the +1 Elven Chain for a +1 mithral Chain Shirt? Turns out that even though mithral brings armor down a weight category, your character will need the proficiency to wear it properly. So my rogue wouldn't be able to actually use the Elven Chain.
What are the stats for elven chain?
ready for inspection
Basic stats are done. Will work on bg later.
One thing of note: I gained the proficiency to wield the Elven Curve Blade via Combat Trick, one of my rogue talents. I figure there are too many rogues with rapiers out there for me to add another.
on reflection you can have any 1st level spell in your wand (as long as it does not have an expensive component)
How about a wand of Acid Arrow with 41 charges? It would be the same value.
all looks good, have you added in the +1 stat for level 4?Basic stats are done. Will work on bg later.

Yup, I added it to my WIS.
Oooops! Call me a dumbass but I only just noticed we're not level 1!!!!
I'll try to finish my character today though.
Just finished background and personality. I think I am all done and ready to rock. What is the GM's e-mail again?
he's ready for inspection. I still need to assign the 1000 gp of gear we get, but it will mostly be potions.
Almost done, I think I only have to pick equipment. Hopefully done by tomorrow.
Let's do this!
