Looks good, except two points:
-You should only have 3 3rd level spellslots and one 2nd level spellslot if you only took 1 level of sorceror at 6th level spell (plus bonus for high score). Ogre mage levels aren't retro active for earler level spell slots just as they aren't for lower level spells known.
-Background of some kind would be nice.

Once you have some basic background, we can decide the best way of making you meet the party.

Oh.  I thought it was only for spells known, not spell slots.  So it only stacks for caster level then?  Guess I read it wrong, but no matter.  Edit:  I see now...was looking at the wrong table...

That's weird...because I don't get a spell slot for a cantrip buty I get a new cantrip known.  Please tell me how to resolve this seeming wonkiness.

Fixed that.  Background forthcoming.

Well, you have 2nd level spell slots and no known 2nd level spells. You can simply use them to cast the cantrips.

Keep in mind, you're getting extra spell slots on top of other pretty cool abilities, and you may be able to use those 2nd level slots later on for actual spells. Smile

Yeah I'm was just excercising my dry underwhelmed sarcasm.  Wink

Not going to complain about that 3rd level spell slot when I'm all KAPOW**SWIFTBLADE IN YOUR FACE BITCHES!!!!**  Big Grin

And..er, I was in a car accident a week ago and totaled my car so I've been a bit preoccupied with finding a replacement.  I do have a rough background in mind Osle, but should I just PM it to you here?  That way I'm not expositioning myself twice and can save the narrative motivations for the PCs for IC...

Well, the party now has four hopefully active players.

But Thistledown Thurbertaut is taking his time making his first post.

If he doesn't show signs of life untill tomorrow feel free to do a character.

Okay. I'll do one up just in case.

Would a 5-man party be so bad?

The module's really only written for a 4-man group. If they make room, I'll take it.

Oh, that's the least of my problems. I'm already having to pimping up all the ecounters, because if I was using the original ones, any of the party members could probably solo the module whitout breaking a sweat. Fiting in a fifth member is quite easy.

If the rest of the party doesn't mind one extra member, I'm ok with you joining.

This is what I threw together so far. http://www.myth-weavers.com/sheetview.php?sheetid=291753 If it's okay with everyone else for me to join, I'll finish it up. It took a bit, but I found my old 3e books.

Well, the campaign is geared toward a high power level, on par with Tome classes and feats (but not other tome rules). Thus, I'd suggest taking a look through http://www.dnd-wiki.org/wiki/Races_of_War_(3.5e_Sourcebook)/Warriors_with_Style#The_Failure_of_Feats for the equivalents of the feats you selected. You'll probably find that some of the feats have been folded into others, and many have been improved or at least beefed up (for instance, using the Tome "Blind Fighting" feat in place of core Blind Fight, your character would now have Blindsense up to 60 ft. on top of the extra reroll on miss chances, which already gives you a big boost compared to the abilities he currently has). You might also gain some benefit from using the Tome fighter class (or something similar) in place of core Fighter, though that's up to you.

I wouldn't want to overwhelm you with homebrew content, but I also don't want you to feel like you're lagging behind anyone else in the group, either. I'm sure we can help you find what you need to make the sort of character you want to play and would have fun with while still meeting the power level of the rest of us. I'd certainly be willing to help.

If I'm allowed to, mostly because this was originally just a plain 3.0 campaign, I'll probably change a couple of things up, but I'm not looking to optimize my character too much. Originally I was just going to go Scorpion Samurai/Wizard/Eldritch Knight, but it turns out the knight wasn't available in 3.0. I'll wait until I get accepted in. If the party's willing to take in a fifth, I'll revise my character a bit.
