But, if anyone thinks that is unfair because at the start of the campaign it was prohibited, we will stick to that and do core rules only.
opinions?
I never complain when a player gets to play what he likes, after all i always said i prefer core classes, so won't change Esfana with a oracle anyway
Ok Im basically coming to a toss-up between a Dwalven or Tiefling Rogue - range focused.
If Im not mistaken we already have a number of 'face' and melee characters hence little need for a high charisma or high melee base.
How do either sound?
The races or the roles? for the races i think tieflings are a lot better than dwarves for a rogue,as for roles remember your char was alive and with a life of his own before meeting the party, so if you like a "face" char feel free to do it.

Yeah well Im thinking that the rogue is going to be a nasty uncouth bastard - a lot like say Tuco from tGtB&tU not liked by any one really and not liking anyone - but wants to get the job done.
Incidently Im playing in Zyrens Heart of Light and my character there is 20 Char and maxed diplomacy etc - so I do want to play something different :)

Ok Ive put up all the details. please let me know if it meets with your approval Zyren or if you want me to change things.
So as not to surprise you I will be tending to shoot and often rapid shot at that (+6/+6). The high initiative is to allow me to get sneak attack shots off when we encounter things.
Ive tried to maximise the rogue detrap abilities while keeping with the long range sniper too.
If this is not what you want in your game let me know please.

Ive chosen to go with the tiefling sniper type if Dm Zyren allows it.
(of course I added the profile and everything but the damn board ate it so Ill have to add things again and then edit to make it look needed - comming soon.)

Palpatine here: STOP GIVING OUT INFO ABOUT THE FORCE GANDAL!
looks like a great character concept Nikolaus. Now I have to think about how to get you in. Sniper archetype is ok.
Dunno if you know it, but the italian dubbing had to change the pronounce of Palpatine's name, since the word "palpatine" in italian is a sexual reference :-(

Yes, one of the big roleplaying questions. Your approach is the realistic one, but we usually fare with "If you have a stupid character try to play it that way", meaning that you maybe can solve a riddle by a flash of genius, but that shouldn't happen more than one or two times in your character's life :-)

Now, i don't want to tell others how to play their characters or to you how to DM him.....but i don't think he is following his alignment.And he cannot force the rest of the party to fight.

A short linguistic question:
Is this in modern English still possible?
"Don't do that! (just an example phrase)" said he.
instead of "he said" can one say "said he"?
I'm preparing Mary Shelleys Frankenstein for my students atm and I stumbled upon this. I think I never encountered it reading Shakespeare etc. and I wondered if this is a stylistic device of some kind, or even usual for the era of romanticism .

It is grammatically correct, but by modern standards you will sound like Yoda when you say it. If it is written that way in the book (and is an english language version and not a translation into english from another language) it is intentional and should be preserved.
As for William Shakespeare, the style in which he wrote was not how people spoke in that time and place. It was written for the stage.

I'll admit i never heard of this Stalker:Call of Pripyat
Then you have missed the greatest (imo) horror/FPS games of all time :)
The Stalker series (Shadow of Chernobyl, Clear Sky, Call of Pripyat) are some of the most impressive, desolate, and immersive games I have played. The detail and quality of the abandoned cities is just amazing, I spent hours just exploring the terrain.
Pripyat (city next to Chernobyl) is perfectly detailed. I had a friend came back from visiting the Chernobyl site with photos of Pripyat and I could tell him what building he was in just from the game zones.
Then again, he didn't have mutants to deal with :p
