I'm fond of starting at level one, but as Roses, youre suppose to be particularly talented and well trained so all roses will be 3rd level or there about.<br/><br/>I have a PDF from my last game, that was made after a year and then updated a year later... it's still about two years dated, but it's a good starting point for browsing on campaign specific stuff.<br/><br/>http://www.angelickitten.com/rpol/pdf/nw_v2.pdf<br/><br/>Dont let the size of the document bother you, it's meant to be a reference guide, and not to be read end to end, only as needed.  Also keep in mind the document was intended for a different campaign, so much will need to be tweaked.<br/><br/>Characters start with 8 Ability points, and are presumed to have started at first level, so you get to add up to two points to your ability stats from going up two levels.<br/><br/>All characters have (2) traits, though one of them will need to be Knight of the Rose.  Dont ask me what you get from it, i dont know yet, i'm making this up as i go.
