Realized I hadn't done it since earlier, so I just wanted to say thanks to everyone for their input/assistence.  My character is submitted now, waiting on either feedback and/or approval - the bio is pretty short and not too in-depth, but hopefully that won't be a strike against me.  Looking forward to joining in and exploring this crazy world you guys call Layonara!

Also, I would advise "planning" your future character development. You can give him a backstory of first being a fighter and then becoming a paladin... that doesn't mean he has to take levels in fighter, he can simply have been one in a a narrative sense. Alternatively, you could start him as a fighter and just see what the game and RP throw at him...  Maybe he'll be led in that direction, and maybe he won't.




This is what i think i'll do - I see him as a fighter first, and will see where his rp takes him.  hopefully to paladin-hood, as it were...

Ok, I see - While I knew that you couldn't CDQ before 10th, I didn't know that you needed to CDQ into paladin (thought it was for prestige classes).  So its just easier to start off as paladin and run with that... doh... didn't really see that as him.. hmm...

anyway, thanks a bunch.

I have another question, and figured i'd just plop it in here.  I know that paladins cannot freely mutliclass with other general core classes... can, however, a character choose the paladin life later on?  I'm thinking of a dwarf fighter who, in my general outline, will gravitate towards serving vorax by becoming a paladin after a few levels (i know the rules say min. 3 levels in a row, so i'm figuring around leveling 4 or 5 he'll take first paladin lvl., and then straight paladin after that) - his background dictates that he will start off as a fighter, and rather then feeling the call to vorax immediately, he will slowly do so... perhaps shooting for, ultimately, a champ of vorax.  

Is this kind of thing kosher?

Thanks in advance,

Hey all,

First, if this is in the wrong place, please let me know, and i'll repost elsewhere (if not moved).

So, Layonara seems like the place for me - I would very much like to begin playing, and have read through the steps necessary to get things in order.  The rules and expectations of a PC seem pretty stringent (and can be quite intimidating to an outsider - though I know and appreciate why all the reqs and rules are in place), and I don't want to mess up.  In reading through the req.'s, however, its clear that a character has to be pretty fleshed out prior to creating it - that can be a bit of a problem for someone like me, who hasn't ever played in the mod.  I can't explore the place without a character, but i can't create a character without knowing what's going on in the mod's world...

soo... what do I do?  I downloaded one of the player manuals, but I don't have the time (nor inclination) to read through its 350+ pages with a fine-tooth comb.  My character concept is fairly simple - Dwarf fighter, or perhaps going the Paladin/champ of Vorax (sp?) - so..  perhaps someone could provide me with some quick and simple info on where Dwarves come from?  Major cities?  Relationships with other races?  etc....  Or, if too much trouble, perhaps a link to a thread/quick geography lesson..

Thanks in advance, and, again, let me know if this is in the wrong place.  

the (hopefully) soon to be created Aoric
