I rolled a 16, a 14, 3 10s and a 9
I start as a 19th or 20th character, depending on whether the others have levelled up in today's session.
The budget isn't super, at 270.000 MO. we play in a setting that tends to be low on resources (very few outposts of civilisation left to trade in/with)
The party is mostly good oriented and engaged in saving the world. I am aiming for either a cleric/ordained champion or a favored soul/ordained champion.
Those are the only two class combos I'm willing to consider / explore. Alternatively, I could just go 20 cleric or 20 favourite soul.
I am also considering the Saint template.
Optimisation dips are frowned upon... I'd really prefer to avoid them.
The setting is faerun inspired.
The main no-no I got from the DM is the divine metamagic + persistent spell combo, which he vetoes outright.
Further limitations are related to a point buy system for feats, races or spells outside the allowed sources.
Detailed costs:
-templates: 3 points
-races: 2,5 points
-classes: 2 points
-Prestige Classes: 2 points
-feats: 1 point (3 feats maximum)
-spells and spell-like abilities: 0,1xlevel
-Magic items: 0,0001xMO
allowed sources are:
core books, + the complete series, for feats and classes
player handbook and spell compendium for spells,
core books and magic items compendium for equipment.
I have 5 points to spend for races,classes, feats, spells or other stuff from books that are not included in the above list. Things that are included are free
Dragon magazines is a matter of debate.
Is favored soul a decent fit for ordained champion? Is the Saint template too much of a caster level drain? Should I aim for damage sponge or damage output?
Any race suggestion? Aasimar? Plain human?
I should not forego healing, since we have one and a half a paladin and are further restricted to wands and potions.
Any thoughts or suggestions are welcome
Edit: I forgot to mention that level buyoff is not contemplated
