The year is 994 YK. The Last War has now been raging across Khorvaire for a century. Now, five heroes make their way to the Breland-Cyre border, unknowingly rushing towards their destinies...
Everyone, welcome to the campaign. Standard first level characters, and remember that this is still the Last War when you're writing your backgrounds. You don't all have to be connected directly, but I suggest at least some of you are.
Any limitations on class or race?

None worth mentioning.
I got Leader - Artificer. I was gonna go with something different, but since the War is still going on, I'm switching to a different idea. Human, house Cannith :) I'll have the character up soon, I get really inspired for Eberron :)
I'll start playing with CB later this evening. Ooh, the possibilities.
First!
I still need to write her background, but other than that I'm done. If anyone wants to link backgrounds, let me know, I'm more than game. As we level, I plan to pick up a lot of creation feats - might not be optimal, but they'll be fun :)

First off, I'm not entirely sure you can actually use those bonus rituals, since you don't actually have Ritual Caster. Otherwise, looks good.
Also, I started a Recruiment thread to get two more people.
CB put them there, but if I need to I can wait until level 2 and grab Ritual Caster :) It's not like I should need any of them at first level :)
I have extra time right now. I was intersted in trying out a runepriest, no idea on race.

Good to have you.

Runepriests have healing right? Don't have PHB3 yet, and they're not in CB yet either. I'm hoping yes, cause while I can do some it's not a huge strength, so another healer type would be great!

Right, their the new divine leader from the PHB3. From what I can tell, their main shtick is to switch between offensive and defensive buffs on the fly. Otherwise, they're a lot like melee clerics.
Also, does this work, as far as maps go? Well, ignoring the fact that it's a round structure on a spreadsheet and the squares are really rectangles, do you think it would work well enough?
The map works well enough for me, and I'm glad that the Runepriest has some healing. My bonus healing stat - wisdom - ended up a dump stat, so I get limited boosts, for now, to healing. So, two healers - even if Ghetto's is a half healer like I am - is good, and lets my play with variant uses for my infusions, too :)
Map works fine, Davi.
Still tinkering around with ideas. Thinking I may go rogue or warlock. As the War is still going on, maybe a courier type.
Amy gets her rituals because of her dragonmark, I think.
I think's Rev's right -
Mark of Making gives:
Enchant Magic Item ritual use as if I were two levels higher,
Make Alchemical Items as if I had the Alchement feat and were two levels higher,
and the use of Rituals in in the Creation category, as well as the Make Whole Ritual as if I had the ritutal creation feat.
Awesome catch, Rev, I grabbed it for flavor, didn't even read it! Bad me!
So, since the mark gives me Alchemist, I'm gonna flicker it back to Ritual Caster, so I don't have any ritual limits, if that's ok.
I've mostly pierced together her background in my head, and will have that up today. She will be part of House Cannith, though, clearly from the name, though not politcally active.
Also, I was thinking for flavor, I'd carry a different wand for each power I have - is that ok from a DM point of view?
Hi gang, do you need another player and if so, what's needed?
I'd like to play a kalashtar with a psionic class. Any role we still need? Disinclined to play Defender.
Davi - your recruitment link isn't working.
Please put me down for a Kalashtar Psion, if there is room.
Whoot! Yay Fabes :)
So, two leader types, and a controller so far, and Rosey leaning to striker. Looks fun!
Reworking Sergeant from a pathfinder game.
If PH3 and Martial powers 2 are useable he will be a double blade(fist) fighter.
PS, can I have 2 battle fists, they are equal to a mace but I can still grab stuff.
Davi - your recruitment link isn't working.
I know. Long story short, I accidentally deleted the thread. Anyway, it doesn't matter, since we now have five players that probably won't need replacing. Once you're all done with character creation, we should be ready to start.
Amyrielle: As long as it's mechanically the same as just having one wand, go ahead.
Sergeant: Well, that would be better than the Spiked Gauntlets, which you already have proficiency in, so I'd say to just go with Spiked Gauntlets and take the feat that improves their damage to d8. Alternatively, we could count them as a superior version of spiked gauntlets. Either way, it'd take a feat.
Also, house rule notice: If this manages to get to level 5, you all get the Expertise of your choice for free. Don't bother taking any of them.

That's what I was going for but couldn't find a feat that would increase unarmed damage to 1d8.

Brutal Brawler. Requires Brawler Style, increases unarmed damage to 1d6 annd spiked gauntlet damage to 1d8.

I don't want to change Sergeant's styles or feats I just want a spiked guantlet type weapon that acts as a light weapon not as unarmed attack.
I would like sergeant to be a 1st level Warforged brawler, similer to the ones your fighting now in my Ebberon game. His only weapons would be his oversized fists and thrown rocks.
Oh, you took Tempest Style then? Well then, just buy a few "short swords"(fists) and "stab"(punch) people with them. It's probably easier to just refluff your weapons than make an entirely new one, and there's probably a good reason for the lack of d8 off-hand weapons.

I'll just go with two maces until I can get something in-game.

Maces aren't off-hand weapons, so you can't. Well, you can, but you couldn't use the one in your off hand for attacks.
Gabrielle. She's extremely conscientious about her duties, which are primarily to make sure nothing gets near whatever the caravan she's looking after is carrying at the time.
She's easy to underestimate since she's smallish, fattish and doesn't seem threatening. She lacks obvious charm, but she's stronger than she looks and has a solid sensible head on her shoulders.
Got a real sweet tooth as well.
Spiked gauntles, I meant spiked gauntlets.
"To sleep, perchance to dream..."
Kalashtar Psion with no stats yet.
Just checking to make sure minotaur is an aceptable race. Once I get confirmation, I'll get to work. Since the character builder doesn't have runepriest yet, it'll only exist in the profile for a few weeks.

CB has Runepriest, but only one build. Likewise all the PHB3 races/classes.
Umm.. the list of classes the CB is showing right now only has Ardent, Battlemind, Hybrid, Monk, Psion, and Seeker from PHB3.
Re-imagined, re-worked and re-named warforged fighter.
Boxer, fighter Brutal brawler style.
So, that's three character sheets done so far.
Also, Ghetto, the minotaur is fine.

Could have sworn I saw Runepriest, but must have been my imagination. Apologies ... and clearly need to get eyes checked.
*wanders off to look at CB again and wonder what happened to brain cells.*
Thanks, I'll be filling out the profile throughout the evening.

Nope, Runepriest was the only one that didn't get a preview. That's why I was asking all those Runepriest questions earlier.
So, we have a warforged fighter, kalashtar psion, human rogue and artificer, and minotaur runepriest? Sounds like a neat group :)
Davi, given that I have both Enchant and Disenchant Magic Item and, should the game go for a while (which I hope it does!), I plan on using them as often as I can, do you want wishlists, or leave specific items up to IC crafting?
Yeah, everyone give me a wish list. If nothing else I need to know what to give out with the treasure.
Any warforged components that increase AC.
Martial scripts.
Amyrielle d'Cannith as a back ground do you want to have made a unique warforged, i.e. Boxer.
Well, I don't think I could have made one solo, though I think being part of the team that made Boxer would be cool. As long as you didn't mind being called something like 'Subject (number) or some other project identifying code.

Finally got the profile done. I should have a background put together in the next day or two. Right now I'm thinking a former mercenary or bodyguard (if anybody needs one).
Finally got the profile done. I should have a background put together in the next day or two. Right now I'm thinking a former mercenary or bodyguard (if anybody needs one).Good. Everything seems to be coming together nicely. Now, how are these for reasons for everyone to be heading for the tower:
- Amyrielle is sent by her superiors to investigate an incarnation of the Draconic Prophecy said to be in the tower.
- Boxer is sent to guard Amyrielle.
- Gurdang is hired by Kashana to protect her on the way to the tower.
- Gabrielle is also hired to get Kashana there.
- Unless Kashana's background points to a better hook, I'm just going to go with a prophetic dream.
So, does that sound fine to everyone? (Of course, a lot of this depends on what Kashana's background turns out to be.)

Sounds great to me!
C'mon Boxer, we need to beat the other Dragonmarked houses there!
Does this mean we'll be starting as two groups - Boxer and I as one, and the other three as the other?

Yeah, you are. I trust all of you to not kill each other when you meet up.
