Since the LoI is not starting, I might do a bit of changes to my character. I am weighing up the option of:

(Cloistered Cleric//Sorcerer) 2/Druid 3/MT 2/AH 10/FL 3
(Beguiler//Sorcerer)1/Focused Conjurer 1/Master Specialist 3/Ultimate Magus 10/something x

Reasons:
There are a couple of feats in Dragonlance that allows me to use Cha or Int for divine spells instead of Wis,
and
there is a template for Dragons (Riddled) that allows me to change Sorcerer casting to Int based instead of Cha based (lose 1 spellslot/level though).

Plus, I am bored waiting... :P

So... still nothing doing with the ice game?  Is there any way to be transfered to a game that will be doing something?

And Mid-Ocean is (almost?) ready!

VennDygrem: Jerran (the Wolf) - Ranger 2//Swordsage 2 (LA +1)
AlienFromBeyond: Sazarek - Human Paragon 3//Half-Elf Paragon 3
Phaenix: Ellis Gaszpar - Cloistered Cleric 3//Ranger 3 (Said something about doing an Airbender instead)
Rufei: Blanche Balim - Martial Artist 2//Fighter 2/Rogue 1

Depends on if Phaenix is sticking with Ellis or dropping him for some other build. But yeah, I think we're set... with some ridiculous stats to boot. Jerran with a 24 in Wis and a 22 in Str, Sazarek with that 30 in Int, and Blanche with a 28 in Dex... with Ellis barely scraping 20 with that Wis (but it's a cleric, so it'll be buff crazy!).

Fun times.

I'll stick with Ranger for now. Since retraining is allowed, I can always switch it out (Maybe once I get Divine Power).

Y'know, in any other game 20 in your main stat at level 3 would be considered pretty darn good. :) Plus, I only get one FP. I think a re-roll will be nice. Unless my teammates think I ought to spend it?

No, having the auto-save-my-butt ability is really nice. I considered saving one of my points, but I wanted a nice, even hit point total. :D

I've never played a character with stats or abilities like this, but besides the maneuvers, it's really only decent at one thing. So who knows if I'll even survive, haha.

Wymm, a ninja.  I've had it since the first false start of the ice game on the other boards... I've just been waiting for notification that it was time to dust him off.  This guy:  http://www.myth-weavers.com/sheets/view.php?id=49261

I think we have everyone for the LoI campaign: you, me, Nanshork, and AJ.  And one other?  But  think he dropped....I don't know.  I know that we have enough people, and have for some time now.

We have four.  We had Dark_Samuari, but he disappeared weeks back.  Four is enough, and in a couple of levels I'll have a cohort for a nice power boost.

Yeah, see?  We're ready. And I'm updated to Avatar Beta, so if Jaron needs to update he'll be the last.  You're done, right Nanshork?  AJ?

It seems like a lot of us are done. It only took forever, right?  :)

I'm done.  Fiddling with feat progression, but I'm done.  Cohort is done too, though he's a couple of levels in the future.

Pretty much. Sinfire's to get back to me about something, but other than that, I'm good to go.

The homebrew rules to emulate Bending (from the Avatar series) in version beta.

Not to dash your hopes but the games that are actually started have slowed to a crawl since Sinfire is busy.

On a completely different topic: I believe this is the longest thread on all of BG...

The new and improved Avatar project.  It's actually located here, in the Inspiration Strikes forum.  Me and Astral Fire have been working on it, and the beta version is almost done, all that are left are fire and touch ups on air.  And then feats and items, but those are minor.  It gave much needed updates to all the seeds, got rid of the skill based mechanic and replaced it with class level (+1/2 other levels, a la ToB), and gave an update to the classes themselves (no more stupid abilities and dead levels, these ones are good through 20 if you want).

Yes it is.  And it's the third most viewed.

Honestly, I get the feeling this was overly ambitious, and the games may never actually get off the ground.  Too bad too.

Anyway, my character has been ready for months now.

Hey, mine too.  BUt the good news about the wait: I didn't have to use a sub-par waterbender when playing.  I get to use one brought about by GOOD design talents and playtesting (though technically playtesting isn't over...it's far from over...)

Yeah, Mid-Ocean died because it took too long for the DM response (last time). Here's to hoping SiFir doesn't get too busy. :)

He's got exams, I believe. So don't pressure him too much.
