Are we meant to participate in each others' character background/development threads? If yes, cool. If not, may I suggest making it so each player sees only his/her own thread? It's no biggie, but just prevents "hey cool, new post!" false alarms. ;-)
I don't care one way or the other. I don't know of a way to limit the THREAD to only a specific character. Though I can set up individual forums for each of you. I think I'll do that...now that I think on it.

Re: Character Generation
I must confess I'm not too familiar with Faerun lore. Can someone direct me to a good online resource to learn more about Luskan and Waterdhavian families? I am Googling but you might help me separate the chaff from the wheat so to speak.

Yup, level 1 to start. Likely going to be doing story-driven XP rather than a hyper strict adherence to the creatures.

Re: Character Generation
Hypco, you rolled real bad for stats, but I think your Pool is going to make up for that!

Re: Character Generation
I just pulled down the class spell lists and then rolled dwhatever number of spells there are. So if you have 17 spells for that level, roll 1d17.

Re: Character Generation
Clearly I should have used the 2d6+6 method of rolling. But of course then I'd get all 1's.

Re: Character Generation
A couple of questions:
How was the background feature determined, I didn't roll a d8?
For background equipment what does it mean by: any items with which you are proficient?
What is Mariner's armor? Never mind, useless for warlocks. I'm confused.

Re: Character Generation
@hypco
I took what you rolled on a d20 and divided it by 20, then multiplied by 8 to convert it to what a d8 would have been. Since the backgrounds all have different counts for features, this let me have one dice roll applicable for all.

Mariners armor is light or medium. Since warlocks can wear light armor, this isn't quite useless. If you all end up in the water it can be very useful. You can apply it to any light armor you start with (leather I believe for warlocks).

As for that items you are proficient with thing, any non weapons or armor you are proficient with (so tools and gaming sets and stuff)

Re: Character Generation
May I use the 6 from my pool and modify my Constitution to 17 instead? Then I can use a 4 in Charisma to bring it to 13.
