They're magic druid herbs. Did anyone else think Getafix the druid in Asterix was a paedophile? He was always strangely absent whilst the rest of the adults were out attacking Romans...

Oh, all those races with level adjustments are kind of out at first level (though we can probably work something out if the level adjustment is +1). I think there are rules for level 0 characters.

Edit: Current rules for level 0 characters... none. You get a level 1 character that doesn't gain his second level until 3000 exp if you play an Aasimar or Tiefling (or any race with an effective level of +1 (for newbies: races that kick more ass than the standard races)).

Deacon Welkamt Aarston(m)- Dwarven Cleric 1
Str: 12
Dex: 12
Con: 11 (+2)
Int: 13
Wis: 16
Cha: 15 (-2)
Wearing: belt, soft boots, breeches, good loak, gloves, tunic, leather armor, backpack, signet ring, holy ring.

Wielding: Warhammer (in scabbard: dagger)
In the backpack: 1 pr. breeches, 7 good meals, 1wk dry rations, iron pot, 1lb wax, flint and steel, two torches, two lbs cracked corn, one small tent.

Weight: 39lbs (Unencumbered).

Gold: 1gpt, 5 sp, 10 cp.

Languages: Dwarven, Terran, Gnomish, Orcish, and Gobin.

The good Deaon (Lawful Good) faithfully worships the gods of Healing and Thunder. He wields his hammer in service to his gods and all that is good.

Several companions have joined with him in his wanderings. A swan, Geeslaka, shows uncanny abilty in the field of not being killed (note: no combat abilities). Five chickens provide fresh eggs for the priest, his compainons, and poor folk.


The curch provided the gold for equipment, and most of the remaining money has been donated accordingly.

Perhaps we could give level adjustment races the abilities from Table 2-22: Apprentice Level Characters in the DMG instead of the full class abilities, and then upgrade them once they get 1000 experience? It would make the ECL races more equal with the standard ones at the start, and give their players something to look forward to between the start and level three.

Not that either way will make a difference to me as I'm going to be playing a plain old human. Well, time to choose a homeland and start working out my character's background.

I think that we are starting at level 1, you can multiclass when you level (that is how it is done in 3rd)

no

but Victor said to start at level one and we are playing 3rd I believe (which allows multclassing when you level)

Victor can correct me

	Suffering from ads?

if we are playing 2nd level characters (might be better than first, I don't know), than according to 3rd edition rules you could multiclass druid/monk (you would probably have to be lawful neutral tohugh)
