I just used the average.

Or you could use a dice roller.

I have 20 gp if any wants it, as 'large quantities of money' don't really fit my character. Maybe the warden can have it.

As rolepgeek is waitlisted (I believe) Tawarochir, you can indeed be the warden.

Well, I got 80, so hooray. I probably don't need the 20.

Shall now continue with sheet.

Also, are bloodlines OK?

Most alternative rules are okay. Bloodlines get my approval.

Awesome. I shall now decide upon one.

EDIT: Is a minor fey VAMPIRE one OK?

I have a question, what like, races and religions are available?

I believe, for a game using a majority of the these homerules, I once made a Goliath Paladin of Wee Jas, but that game died before it even started, so I was thinking about retooling him for this game.  (I'ts been a very long while since I have played as a Paladin) On the other hand I dunno if Goliaths are in this world, so maybe switch it for a human or something, and swap out Wee Jas for some other god, maybe some anti psionic god or pro psionic regulation god. (Although I was eventually planning on becoming a Ruby Knight, which if Wee Jas is not a thing, I would have to think of some other future path. Unless My Name is Immaterial would be up for reflavoring the Ruby Knight prestige class into something more appropriate, such as by replacing instances of "enemy of Wee Jas" with "people who use Psionics.")

Although all that said sometimes Paladins can cause issues, especially in a a group based around the morally grey idea of psionics being evil and killing users (unless of course in this world psionics really is evil). So maybe it would be more appropriate to just play as a Crusader or warblade or something. Unless I could play as like, a reflavored Paladin, that instead of being anti evil is anti psionic or something.

To me, goliaths always seemed very powerful for just LA+1, basically because of Large Build. Maybe it's just because the only goliaths I've seen are optimised superchargers. Hmm.

But not being the GM, my opinion isn't actually relevant  :P

Oh, good point, I didn't actually read the rules, just skimmed them and saw they were roughly the same. I better check to see if lower tier classes get free LA or if that was taken out.

Edit: I don't think they do, so I can't be a Goliath anyway. So a human or something probably then.

I don't like to limit player choice, so all religions and races are available, including homebrew.

Wee Jas and Goliaths are in this world. Wee Jas is not a very intense anti-psionics goddess, unlike Boccob, for instance, who believes psionics to be an affront to the natural order.

As I mentioned in the OP, I'm working on some custom prestige classes, so don't worry about that right now.

Ask I'm going to say on the topic of psionics being evil is that you can't be an anti-psionic paladin yet. Paladins are still alignment based.

Eh, Goliaths are fine. Tier 5/6 or npc classes get free LA.

So technically I could choose a tier 5/6 class and then use the free LA to get a level of psion?

Fuck no. Free LA only bypasses the LA of templates and races.

In said case, is an atheist character OK?

On a mostly unrelated note, my Int bonus is +3; how many extra spells per day do I get? (The SRD avoids speaking of such things.)

So, I play Dnd 3.5. More specifically, I DM 3.5.

Do you have room? Because I am all over a Half-Orc Barbarian. If someone else really wants to do Barbarian/Similar Class, I also play a really kick-ass Party-Support based Cleric.

Would you accept their existence and just not believe in them?
