Sinfire, a quick overview of the campaign settings, is this about correct?
(Yellow) Valua = Dungeon crawling
(Green) Ixa'taka = Forest slashing
(Blue) Yafutoma = Water splashing
(red) Nasr = Desert digging
(purple) Ice No = Ice hacking
(silver) Sailor's Island = Water Diving

Valua, Ixa'taka, Yafutoma, and Nasr are all being transfered

Valua is more about the Armada than the ruins of Old Valua, and Mid-Ocean isn't an aquatic campaign, but those are otherwise accurate. God, the yellow on these forums is fucking bright!

Do we just roll for fate points on IC? And which classes get more or less, do you have a list set up?

Yes, but after I see the character sheet. More or less, its based on how optimized your character is, and what Tier the classes used are. As such, the Big 5 get considerably less, and classes like Monk, Fighter, etc, get more. Homebrew classes get a static 1d3, unless the other half is a Big 5 class.

But the level of optimization does matter. An Artificer/CW Samurai with VoP would most likely get the max I can give, which is 1d3+3.

Well, here's my character so far. Not done, but he's coming along. I'll probably post him on the Min/Max board later for help, but he won't be greatly optimized or anything. So what would he get for fate points? I can roll 'em right now if you like. Or would you like him completed first?

As is, due to the untested base class, its just the base 1d3. He's fine (though I dislike the Whisper Gnome due to the Silence SLA being so damn hard to bypass), so go ahead and roll it.

Can I keep the ones I rolled for the initial game? I had I think 1d3-1 and I managed to roll the max and I'd like to keep it.

If I dare to say I want to play, I need to make sure I understand the gestalt thing. You make an original class, say fighter/rogue. Then if you multiclass, you become a (fighter/rogue)/sorcerer?

Also, what worlds are open?

Yes. If you spent any, they are gone.

My build will look something like Kiba Djakla. Archvist//Druid, and yes I know its not optimal because of the double saves,BAB and spellcasting :P

That is true, but even with the dual-stat dependency it still has a serious edge to it. 1d3-1 (min 1), you may as well roll it as you can't get any worse than the average.

Can I use the Fire-Souled template from dragon 314? It would be going on a Wilder//Bard or Marshal. Though really I'm still looking for a nice Cha based class to use on the second side.

As for region, the character I'm building would likely have come from Nasr but would be the type to travel to other places. I would be happy anywhere I think.

Let me see the template (I own none of the Dragon Mags), and I'll look it over.

Mirro, an awesome Swordruid!

1: There is no way in hell that I'm allowing Anthropomorphic characters, especially not one that gets you a Wis of 21 and a Dex of 18 before FP is even issued.
2: In that you are a Small Anthro, even if I did allow it, there is a minimum of a +1 LA, as listed by the Anthro template. As such, you would only be a Druid/Swordsage 2, not 3. Nice try though.
3: Unseelie Fey have no fly speed until 6th level. They have a Glide speed, like Raptorians.


Other than those, I have no problem with the character. But do use a different race, please.

Fire-Souled

I'm fine with the template (after losing Leadership), but the second I see Celerity loops happening there will be consequences.

I can't even cast Celerity...the only abuse here is to make it so I don't daze myself when I use my class ability.

Oh, Wild Surge? I'd actually let you change the Unconditional Power feat from Metapsionic to simply Psionic, and just have it trigger while you are focused (you still have to pay the extra points, you just don't need to expend the focus each time you want to use it) to avoid that failure of a class feature.

Um ...  ::looks at template::  ::looks at table::  ::repeats three times::

That's, uh, not true?

Fine by me.  I'm actually fine with dropping the fly speed altogether.  ::shrugs::
