    Default A Challenge To The Community At Large

    I've grown tired of making characters. As such, I don't want to make a character but I do want to play in a D&D game. So, I've come to the good folks at Gaming In The Playground to solve my dilemma.

    I'm going to ask the community to help me make a 5th level character. He or she will be entirely made by the community, and will be appropriately fluffed out by anyone who has the patience to do so.

    The books I'm allowed to draw from are: Frostburn, Sandstorm, PHBII, Core, the Complete Series(sans Champion), and the Races of [X] series.

    As such, I'm going to be putting up a vote for every aspect of the character that isn't randomly determined or purchased with Gold.

    The following items will be randomly determined: Age, Height, Gender, Weight, Hair Color, and Eye Color.

    The Character As It Stands

    Name: Stubby McPlaceholder
    Race: Kobold
    Class: Ranger; Avenging Executioner
    Level: 5
    XP: 10,000
    Gender: Male
    Age: 16
    Height: 2'3"
    Weight: 32 lbs
    Hair Color: Bald
    Eye Color: Green

    Stats: (Post Racial Adjustments)
    STR - 8
    DEX - 17
    CON - 12
    INT - 12
    WIS - 14
    CHA - 12

    Feats:
    Track [Bonus]
    Weapon Finesse [1st]
    Two-Weapon Fighting [Bonus]
    Trophy Collector [3rd]
    Endurance [Bonus]

    Items:
    Longbow. 75
    Quivers of arrows. 1
    Two +1 Light Picks. 4608
    +1 chain shirt. 1250
    Handy Haversack. 2000
    Masterwork tool of Intimidate. 50
    Wand of Cure Light Wounds (Ranger spells FTW) 750
    At least two Trophies(Humanskin Belt, Human skull hat). 200
    Random Crap. 66gp
    A bedroll, a blanket, 5 square yards of canvas, some chalk, flint and steel, a grappling hook, a ladder, a mirror, a supply of oil flasks, a vial, a jug, couple sheets of paper, 10-foot pole, 100 feet of silk rope, a whistle, a shovel, a tent, taxidermy kit, and an explorer's outfit.
    9000 GP

    Currently Voting For: Skills

    Alright, skill time. I'll also be changing the voting time since I woke up late and forgot about changing the vote. You can pick any skills, but remember that we need to have Intimidate for Avenging Executioner.

    Disenfranchising the Gnome vote? Bad form!

    I'll go with Dwarf as my second pick.

    EDIT: That is going to be one tall dwarf. But dwarf it is!

    Care to specify a Halfling or just generic "PhB" halfling?

    I cast my vote for a half-dragon kobold. I'm just kidding(Unless anyone else thinks that would be awsome.) I vote for a regular kobold.

    I'll add my vote to Dwarf. I guess I just don't really enjoy seeing PC Kobolds...

    What, no Aasimar love?

    I'm pretty sure they're only LA+1 or 2. I vote Aasimar.

    Please specify which Halfling if you vote for Halfling.

    This applies to Elf as well.

    My vote was for the PHB halfling. If I meant any other type of halfling, I'd say that type of halfling.

    I'm actually pretty shocked no one mentioned human. It's usually the most popular mechanically. but then that's probably why. Right now we don't have a mechanical concept yet so we're more free to choose based on fluff
