Re: 3.5 dnd game.
Okay, I have the one weapon, is there anything against using the equipment fund to cover a second (looking at a scythe or sickle to go with the crossbow I ended up choosing)?
Otherwise, short of dealing with the daily bit, I believe I'm done.
While I'm at it, some ideas.
pull an Indian Jones and the Temple of Doomesque reaching into people to get at their innards (on second thought, this one could be worked with, perhaps a pretty good chance to miss and then a pretty good chance not to hit a vital organ, and somehow not completely ignoring armor would probably be good too.)
Force-pushing things (limited to nearby, lighter-weight objects, can't preform complicated maneuvers, requires concentration)

Re: 3.5 dnd game.
You can use the equipment fund for extra weapons if you wish.
As for your dailies those sound alright but the heart grabbing one is going to be a little less fetal.
Here is an example of how your daily might work.
Flesh pull: ( You reach out and grab your oppenent and yank out some of his flesh.)
Minor action.
Attack: BAB+ STR
DMG: You do 1d6+STR and the oppenent is shaken for a round and takes -2 to checks. The oppenent is also dealt bleeding damage that does 1 point of damage a round until the wound is healed.

Re: 3.5 dnd game.
I have a lot of combat-oriented bits going, so as interesting as a life of disembowelment would be, maybe something a little different.
Speak(Eavesdrop on) with Vermin: like speak with anything else, except for anything defined as vermin (which seems to be limited to the bugs, at least according to the Enlarge Vermin spell). Can only be used on a single species at a time but not limited to one creature of that species. (a single ant is probably pretty useless, but maybe the ant colony knows where a store of food or a group of enemies is)
Out of interest, are we treating dailies more of an inherent ability or were they learned/gained later?
Otherwise, I am done. Shall I send it to you (a preferred format?) or just put it up here. (or just keep it to myself, but I think a final check to make sure everythingÔÇÖs in order would probably be a good idea anyway).

Re: 3.5 dnd game.
The speak with animals is fine. The dailys can be treated as something your taught or you just have a inherent ability. Whatever your preference. As you grow in level ( and your dailies grow in strength.) it can either be your power growing stronger or your just learning. Whatever makes sense for the power.
You can post a sheet here. When we start i'll make a OOC thread and post all the sheets there.

Background: raised mostly by his orkish mother, human father either never showed up or left very early on. Whatever the relationship was between his parents, it was certainly not one of love (the idea is currently ranging from he was a patron of hers in the red-light district, to he simply raped her). He hates his father vehemently, and set out to find him and kill him (this may or may not tie into him taking up being a cleric) only to find out that the man had already been killed. Shortly after that point he now finds himself (wherever heÔÇÖs being put in this game). He tends to be pretty close-lipped about himself and has pretty much come to terms with the fact that he will probably die young (as a precaution, he assumes everyone he meets would gladly slit his throat given the opportunity)

Sorry double post.
You are free to create your own intro to whatever you may like. I'll edit to make it fit. My only request is that it's somewhere in the town and theirs a reason for you to visit the governor soon.

Re: 3.5 dnd game.
No, I don't think that came up. The imperials are setting up a base of operations on Gordor to see if it's worth pouring more resources into.
Here's the brief quotes I found in the thread describing the setting.
Just throwing this out there, I have setting set that I've played on the forums before but I've also considered the setting where the empire first landed on Gordor where everything is still filled with hostile tribes and strong monsters. Think very conquistadors and Aztecs with magic. I'm even tinkering with the idea of adding flintlock pistols to the setting. Would their be a interest in this setting or are you happy with the one already set. ( The new one might be useful if I have players from my previous gordor play wanting to join,)
Sorry for any confusion.

Re: 3.5 dnd game.
Er based my inital character story on...
Imperials:
(Also need to work on a familiar for himself)
Imperials:
I'm going to change a few things, but mostly details regarding his backstory and why he's here...The imperials serve the emperor who they believe is chosen by their gods. Most imperials are human and lived on the continent of Olberdan. They have huge mines of steel and iron so almost every soldier in the army is clad in at least breastplate unlike many other armies. Imperials are lawful by nature and consider themselves civilized over many other smaller kingdoms. Their nobles are often lavished with fashionable robes and jewelry while the common foot soldier lives comfortably and the peasants are almost never without food at least in the homeland.
Many imperials believe their way of governing is superior and some natives agree since the imperials have established safe roads from monsters and protection over towns. However imperials have more rights than the common native ( They are allowed to wear metal armor and use metal weapons unlike many tribals who need permits to do so.) and sometimes they lorde this over the natives causing grudges between the two. The imperials have also banned the religion of the natives as heresy so druids and worshippers of the old gods either keep it hidden or live in the woods.
Thanks to their well trained and equipped armies and the aid of their addicted orc foot soldier the empire is one of the biggest nations in the world. However due to several wars they have withdrawn several legions of imperial soldiers from Gordor leaving it strained to keep up with their formal protections of towns and road and leaving it vulnerable to a revolt
