Character Sheets go here:
First off, don't roll your characters in this thread, only put finalized characters up here. Use the general OOC thread to actually roll up the stats.
Stat's are rolled 3d6 in order excepting luck which is rolled 4d6 drop the lowest. Then roll your Birth Augur on P19. Do this 4 times, in effect generating 4 level 0 characters. Now, if there is a particular class you are dying to play, and no one else in the party has filled that role I will occasionally allow a small stat shuffle. Ie; swap your strength of 14 with your Intelligence of 8 if you are dead set on playing a Sorcerer, and there are no other good candidates in your pool, but it's on a case by case basis, and I strongly encourage people to play with what they roll.
After that, you can pick your race and roll on (or pick from) the occupation table related to that race. I allow the option to pick an occupation so you can pick a backstory that actually interests you and you would care to roleplay. It can also make things a bit more coherent and prevent situations where you have Gert the Swineherd suddenly becoming a Sorcerer. Do not roll the d4 for HP though, you automatically get a 4HP 'kicker'. If you are playing as a Draki or Ooruk you do not receive a starting occupation, but you do still get the 4HP kicker. Also, both exotic races have stat requirements. Ooruk must have a starting strength of 14 and a starting stamina of 12. Draki must have a starting agility of 14 and an intelligence of 12. This is largely to encourage their rarity, not because they are any more powerful than their human counterparts.
If you are playing as a sorcerer you must choose your patron and roll to cast the Patron Pact spell on P. 62 of Tales. You get an automatic +2 bonus to the roll due to the length of time the ritual would have taken, plus 1 due to being level 1 and whatever your intelligence modifier is. After reaching level 2 you can choose to renew the pact and hope for a better roll. After that, you can renew the pact every time you learn a new spell level (IE level 3, 5, 7, and 9) representing your being drawn closer and closer to your patron.
For formatting the sheets, it doesn't really matter, as long as the information is there. Once I get the Obsidian Portal campaign up and running I'll be putting them up there anyhow.
*edit* Oh, and don't worry about starting equipment. It isn't going to matter.

Re: Hall of Heroes
Figured I'd add some notes on the situation you are in at the beginning of the campaign to help with character background and the like.
At the beginning of the campaign you are all in the unfortunate position of being captives of a Kushite slave trader named Genubath the Golden. As far as flesh mongers go, he's fairly successful, albeit a small fish, traveling a circuitous overland route around Urd stopping at various cities buying and selling merchandise as he goes. Appearance wise he is middle aged with the typical olive brown skin of a Kushite and though he typically tries to keep his head shaved, long days on the road mean that it is more often than not covered with a receding salt and pepper stubble. He is somewhat somewhat portly, and gets his nickname from the scourge he carries, as the leather is painted red, and small golden (actually they are brass or bronze) hooks are tied to the strings. He typically rides on the back of a camel in a small howdah that has an awning and curtains that he can pull around it to shelter from the heat or cold.
His party consists of himself, along with 8 mercenaries equipped with iron tipped spears, short swords, leather jerkins with small bronze plates sewn over their vitals, and shields. Two of these guards also ride horses along the riverbank and are responsible for serving as outriders. His slave driver is a nasty Vuulese brute of mixed decent that everyone just calls Ogre. He carries a heavy poinard for self defense along with an nasty assortment of whips, scourges, lassos and nets that serve as his tools of the trade.
At present you have recently left Karthazar and are making your way up the River of Blades to Y'Mataar traveling on a small river barque. Your hands are bound in front of you, and each of you wears an iron collar attached by a chain to the collar of the person in front of and behind you. During the day while you work to poll the boat upriver your hands are unbound and you are divided into two gangs, one on each side of the barge. Your only possessions are a rag tied about your head to provide some protection from the sun, and a simple cotton shift that reaches to your knees. Your days are spent polling the barge against the current, sweating in the heat while your nights are spent on the open deck of the barque huddling together for warmth. The one good thing about your situation is that Genubath seems to believe that keeping his product well fed is important, and you get three proper meals each day including a hot soup of grain and beans each night, as well as a healthy ration of water. Occasionally, if Genubath deems that you have made particularly good progress he will even add a measure of strong spirits to your evening water ration. In addition to yourselves there are two other captives. The first, a thoroughly miserable Keshite who was sold into slavery to pay off gambling debts and complains constantly about his lot in life and a Karthis barbarian who hasn't said more than two words since he was purchased in Karthazar.
Genubath seems to take a perverse pride in in work and whenever you have been brought to a market he brags that while his stock may be limited, he only deals in the finest of quality. The Keshite for example speaks no less than six tongues and can read and write in four of them making him invaluable to those who require a translator, whereas the barbarian has great skills at the forge, and apparently has knowledge of the secret of steel, though he may require a light touch of the lash to encourage him to ply his trade.
