I'm totally awesome!<br/><br/>I haven't done a ton of research into the game yet, as I wasn't even sure if there was room, so if someone could be super-nice and let me know what sort of heroes are taken / needed and if there is anything else a cute little noob should know, that would be awesome!<br/><br/>I will be drumming up a character here in a bit, but wanted to come over here and let everyone get to know me first!<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div>Welcome to our little corner of E, Faeli.<br/><br/>When it comes to your character I really wouldn't worry about the other characters, for two reasons:<br/><br/>1) I can always adjust adventures to the characters in play. Not that I expect this game to be chock full of dungeon crawls anyway. The idea is more of a "village simulation" than a classic adventure game so I expect character classes to be less important than they might be in another game.<br/><br/>2) Participation in group games tends to fluctuate, be it a lull in activity by some people, or players droping out of the game completely. Chosing your character based on who is already in play today makes only limited sense if who is in play can change any day.<br/><br/>That said, lets take a look at some options:<br/>Monks - not an option.<br/>Paladin - I'd be very reluctant to have a paladin in this game.<br/>Fighter types - We have one fighter, and given the rural setting a ranger or barbarian might be the better choice if you want a more martial-oriented character (but a second fighter wouldn't be a real problem for me)<br/>Rogue types - Bard seems to be a pretty popular character class in this game. Prehaps a standard rogue might be better if you want a jack-of-all-trades, skill-oriented character<br/>Divine magic - Druid wouldn't be a problem, and neither would a cleric be, provided we can find a religion for him/her that fits the setting<br/>Arcane magic - A wizard could run into problems as there might be a lack of teachers and study opportunities. If you want an arcane spellcaster a sorcerer might be a better choice than a wizard. Not that I'm ruling out a wizard. Just Saying it might be a very lonely existence in the village the game focuses on.<br/><br/>Speaking of the village, there's a thread where I posted some background information and stuff here: https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=241938.0<br/><br/>Hope that helps.<br/>
