Well I have a sheet.
Nothing jumps out as horribly wrong, at least

Found a glaring issue the moment I clicked the link, actually! It's not public

I don't know what you're talking about. It's working perfectly for me.

Would this alternative class feature be allowed at all? No worries if not, thought I'd ask though.

Spoiler: Dungeonscape (click to show/hide)

Alternative Class Feature: Penetrating Strike
Creatures that have immunity to extra damage from sneak attacks are a bane to rogues everywhere. Particularly in ancient tombs where undead are common, rogues must rely on their wits to survive. You have spent a significant amount of time studying this problem and have learned ways to harm even such resilient opponents.
Level: 3^rd.
Replaces: If you select this alternative class feature, you do not gain trap sense.
Benefit: Whenever you flank a creature that is immune to extra damage from sneak attacks, you still deal extra damage equal to half your normal sneak attack dice. This benefit does not apply against creatures that cannot be flanked, nor against foes that are otherwise denied their Dexterity bonus to AC or flat-footed but not flanked.

Looks good to me Lawas.

Rogues should probably have something like that baseline anyway...

Ah, I thought I'd linked mine already.  Linkies.  Still debating over the survivors in the backstory; probably depends on which GM ends up with a spare slot for me, to see if I work something out regarding them. 

Well, Fishmine was originally supposed to be Fishmire...and the three were all stuff I came up with quickly. They're all compounds--the main industry of the area (fishing/farming/mining) combined with a description of the area (vil[lage], town, mire).
I'm not that good with names. Do you have better suggestions? I'd love to hear them.

A good trick with names isn't just geography, but what may have happened there in the past.  A lot of location names come not from geography, but some prominent historical event or figure, even if it doesn't come up in the story itself; how many stories set in Alexandria feature Alexander himself?  I'm not particularly good with names, either, but here are some possibilities.  I also have absolutely no compunction about stealing from and compounding real locations. ^_^

Fishmine: Bracknell, Brackwash, Irewash, The Fens, Fenmire, Viskmire, Isleng, Milton Keynes
Farmville: Sauheath, Wenlock, Iscwed, Wethersheath, Tannermoors, Oswest Commons, Kettsoak, Mousehold, Mouseheath, Wheatsheaf, Hweteford, Milton Keynes
Mineton: Ironshold, Ironsforge, Merthyrwen, Oaksfell, Oakspike, Isarnfell, Isarnpike, Isarnion, Milton Keynes

Generic: Priestholme, Aylesbur,

[lawastooshort]

Er, I've had a slight change and am back to a Human Alchemist Rogue now. Yay!

edit: names -
Lea and variations is old English meadow, which is nice for gentle places. Leasowe, Langley, x-ley

[GiglameshDespair]

Ok, I'll update the list.

[Silcugar]

Add me to the list of GMs, Gilg.

Kid, could you update the OP with the map, the list of players/DMs, and the lore as we have it now?

[scriver]

Did we decide we would use races from Forgotten Realms? I remember somebody talking about Strongheart Halflings before.

Preedit: Culise, it appears it was. You munchkin you

[lawastooshort]

Is a cloak of resistance a good use of 1000 gold euros for a sneaky rogue?

[Dwarmin]

Cloak of resistance is useful for everyone...but you may want to save up for at least a +1 weapon first.

[Deep Waters]

Hmmm... Okay, seeing as it seems you GMs have pretty much consolidated the setting now, can I ask if there's anything specific you have in mind for the planetouched, aasimar in particular? I don't want to get started on my background without knowing exactly how rare they are in this setting and how they might be treated beyond the official stance.

[Dwarmin]

@Deep Waters: Nothing from me, anyway. We've pretty much left the world that was intentionally vague.

It seems to me in this sort of world-with at least enough magical expertise to destroy itself-contact with extraplanar people would not be truly rare. Now why they would stay here, one wonders...perhaps they can't leave?

[GiglameshDespair]

How do you work out spell saves?

Hmm... in that case, I have to wonder why there isn't more aid coming from good-aligned deities... what's this setting's stance on pantheons, anyway? Now that I think of it, I do need a god for my paladin to be devoted to. Haha, I can't believe I totally forgot one of the core qualities of a paladin. ^-^;

How do you work out spell saves?

The saving throw a spell requires are generally listed with the spell. The DC for most spells, iirc, is DC 10 + spell level + key spellcasting modifier (Cha for sorcerers). Unless you're talking about something else?

By 'aid' you mean invasion...maybe any move by the celestial will bring a counter move by the infernal, then they're all fighting over a world where most of the population is gone. Maybe they've got better/worse things to worry about.

As for pantheons, humm...I'd say in our world Gods get their power from faith.

Any deities that existed in our world would have lost much of that power IMO, since most of their believers are dead or polymorphed into chickens. They still exist however-but even the Good Gods would be desperate for followers from anywhere. There might be a true crisis of faith in whoever still believes in them, since a good many would blame them for all that's happened...even if that's not really true...or maybe it is...

In any case, any Paladins or Clerics would very well know they are literally the last defenders of their faith. If they fail, their God's message is lost completely. This would cause many to doubt their faith, but turn just as many into zealots-striving to preserve their religion no matter the cost. If this drives them to heroism, despondency or arrogance is up to the person in question.
