Interested in trying a PbP in my Homebrew

[allenchan]

I'd be interested if we could up the starting level to 3 (for the enxt feat) or even 5 (for the 1st level of expert classes) to take the tools for more of a spin

If third level is what it takes to get another player then so be it. I still feel uncomfortable with higher levels since this is my first time DMing using this system

I've written up a dwarf explorer, though if we're moving to lvl 3 I'll need to level him up.

[Quicklift]

If you are happy with level 3 I can go with it.  But what would be a good recomended starting cash of that level?

[tenebrae]

300 silver, I believe.

[allenchan]

300 silver, I believe.

I'm fine with 300+ Lifestyle ... any suggestions on how to handle Reputation?

So for sure a Giant Soldier and a Dwarf Explorer...

Quicklift: Still going to do a goblin lancer?

I think I am going to be taking characters until this weekend. In the meantime, general bios/motivations are encouraged

[Quicklift]

Yes a Goblin Totem Warrior (great cat)

ie: my mounts are tigers...

Build:  Goblin, Druid, Lancer 3

just 300 silver. no adding lifestyle.

are asian weapons allowed?

[Quicklift]

I found the section that states that beginning rep is equal to career level.  so beginning rep is 30.

[allenchan]

30 it is, then!

And any weapon in the book is fair game.

[Daedalus]

I suggest putting some kind of limitation on Reputation purchases of magic items.  30 Rep isn't a huge contact or holding, but it's one great magic item.

[Mister Andersen]

Anyone fancy having a Huge rootwalker in the party?

I didnt know that reading through tthe erratta thread of 54+ pages, i may have skipped a lot -  if that is the case I will select a different terrain feat.

Thanks for the heads up.

And any size is fine with me.... Gives a nice large scratching post for my cats.
