==Setup==
You are a motley bunch, brought together in the hold of a Sea Prince slave ship, sold to goblins in the Pomarj. You broke free, and slaughtered the slavers. You battled your way north, and explored a lost city in the Suss forest, cleansing it of the aberrations that dwelt there. Loaded down with treasure, you struggled your way to the city-state of Badwall on the Wild Coast.

There you got entangled in a plot against the Baron of Badwall, and foiled his assassination. Rather than become mired in the politics of the city-state, you left soon thereafter, hiring onto protect a caravan heading for the city-state of Fax on the coast. You fought off the attacks of ogres and trolls, pawns of the young green dragon Grizax’vhul. Tracking the dragon back to its lair in the Welkwood, you ended its reign of terror.

In Fax, a reptile worshipping cult attacked you…something from that lost city had tracked you down. Slaughtering their leader, a yuan-ti priest, you became notorious in the city as troublemakers. You boarded a ship bound for Hardby. You fought off an attack of pirates on the way there.

While there, news that Riggby, that legendary cleric of Boccob, had died of old age. The Depostrix of the city wished to send a token to the funeral proceedings in Greyhawk… an old set of sermons that Riggby had written when he had been in Hardby. The merchant captain suggested that your group would be good ones to entrust with the deed…

==Character Creation==
Character creation:

I would like to see three ideas from each person. Keep in mind the brief history of the group.

Any race LA0 or +1 is allowed. Instead of losing a level, +1 races get 1 level less for treasure. (during the game, this means they always choose last in splitting items)

Level will be 8th, Max HP


Books allowed: Any WotC non-setting specific. The Dragon Compendium is also allowed.

Notes on classes: Cleric must worship a god. Greyhawk basic gods are in the PHB. Most gods detailed in the various supplements are OK.

Psionic classes and monks generally come from the Baklunish lands. Oriental classes come from the Far West.


Use this stat array: 18, 16, 14, 12, 10, 8

+1 LA people can choose 7 items, no one which can be worth more than 2600
the others can choose 8 items, no one which can be worth more than 3400

each character will be given a bonus Greyhawk region feat by me.

Those who only use the www.d20srd.org can get an extra +2 to a stat of their choice

These limits are for non-charged or use items only. You can use either the 2600 or 3400 split up to purchase non-magic or charged items (wands, scrolls, potions)

You can be assumed to have any non-masterwork or non-alchemical items you want, without cost (but be reasonable) Telescopes are considered alchemical.

Buying spells for inclusion into a spell book: 150*level

Oh, yeah, can everyone list a god they worship, or fear? If you don't really know the Greyhawk gods, then you can describe one, and I'll find one that matches.

==Player Characters==
*[[Albrikt Athalvaldir]] (played by John_C): An Elven Warlock, of Fae bent and strange habits.  He seeks apotheosis, but sees no point in being ''rude'' about it. (CG)
*[[Keles Antarus]] (Played by mpascal02):  A Human Wizard, originally from Nyrond, he chose the wrong time and place for his first expedition as an adventurer when he ended up captured by slavers.

*[[Mori Faen]] (played by Robert Edwards): A Seer/Monk from Ket, exiled from his people until he finds inner peace for a dead love. He has fallen among strange companions after capture by pirates, and has learned much -- but not serenity. (LG)
*[[Dryga]] (played by GM Victory): A Half-Orc Fighter/Rogue from Pomarj abandoned by his clan for being too small and runty.  Enslaved by goblins, he grew strong and tough from the constant labor.  He escaped with the others, the first friends he's ever had.  (CG)
