It's only really for categorising, and Paragon path restrictions.

Also sent you a pm, not sure if you've seen it yet or not.

Oh wait, "insane" doesn't work on this forum.
Crap, can't think of an alternative.

They also had to move the magic items and such to the player's handbook, which may be part of the reason they had to move stuff over to a second PHB.  Anyway, primal powers make sense.  Magic is generally something unnatural, involving alternate planes and screwing with fundamental laws.  Psionics comes from force of will.  Primal comes from life/nature.

My character's done, tell me if I missed something.

mission0: Oh, yes I've seen it.
Others should know that you're playing a rogue, I think. I think I should post the sheet for everyone to see...

Cthulhu: I laughed. Hard. I hope that the name and worship is not a coincidence, and in fact we're reading the same webcomic.
I think I can predict what the background will look like  ;D

I'll join. Probably will get a character up sometime later today.

As for time, I'm GMT -5(I think... eastern USA) and due to total lack of a social life, I'm free pretty much all weekend.

It is a reference to Oglaf.

No, the character will not be a gay barbarian.

It's just a silly way of saying "I WISH ONLY FOR GLORY, AND A WARRIOR'S DEATH

The more I'm reading about forgotten realms, the more I hate it.
The thing is I loved the setting, but now it's nothing more than a crapsack world to me. What tics me off is Kelemvor, the wall of the faithless, and how gods are giant douchebags. Even the good ones.
Then the 4 ed comes, with absolutely no mention about what happened to the wall, other than common knowledge that it's gone for good. What happened to it anyway?
But I bet 10 gold pieces they will continue to milk the setting for a looong time.
I thought about using it, and now I only think that I had to be crazy.
I'll just cook up something myself.

Okay, so, we have three characters officially declared, and they're all strikers.

I'm all for people being able to play what they want, but three of the same role isn't exactly a recipe for a good party.

I agree, but don't forget secondary roles.

A barbarian can easily serve as a stand-in defender, and my warlock is more of a controller than a striker.

I'm a Thaneborn Barbarian, which is not a secondary defender.

If it's a problem, I can easily glue my character background onto a fighter without much difference.

Done! This is actually the first time I've played D&D, though I own the players handbooks 1 & 2, plus the one for 3.5.

You have to put a line break before and after the spoiler or it's all messed up and unreadable.

I would play, but I do not have 4e.
Is there an online copy someone might have linky?
