Alright character creation here we go fairly standard in most cases roll 4d6 for each stat. You can create a macro on the roller or use the stat roller option if you wish to. Arrange rolls where you wish. Generally I offer the re-roll rule for any result that is below a 9 unless you want to keep it. I also offer use of the "point buy" system where you can deduct 1 to 2 points from another stat roll result and put them into another stat roll result. For example: Rolling a 17 for CHA and an 8 for INT but you are trying to make something that needs better INT minus 2 from the 17 result lowering CHA to 15 and add them to INT making it a 10 for INT.

On starting money follow the usual rule from the PHB or Al-Qadim book for your class's starting money. Purchase equipment, weapons & armor from the starting money. I will have some freebie things given to every character.
Items Free of Charge to all Characters: Backpack, belt pouch (small), Belt, waterskin/wineskin, 1 weeks standard dry rations, bedroll, 3 torches, flint & steel, 50' of hemp rope, 1 x knife, boots, cloak, & basic clothing desired to be wearing. Note: on the clothing only what you are currently wearing is free if you wish to have more to change into that will come out of the starting money that your character has.
Knife Stats: wt: nil | size:small | type:Piercing/slashing | speed factor:2 | Dmg: s/m: 1d3 Lrg: 1d2

Starting out with level 1 characters, you can dual class/multiclass at start or as we level up.

Don't worry about status, honor or family for character creation I'm not going to use status. If you wish to list your family or honor you can do so if you want to use it to heighten your role-playing. You can do the same thing with status if you wish though I am not going to make that part of the gaming experience (gaining & losing status).

Please make use of Non-Weapon Proficiency I do like to utilize them in game play. For weapon proficiency yes you can use Weapon specialization, as well as Dual-Wielding.

So a couple things I noticed is missing on some of the character sheets that I'd really like to see on all character sheets is THAC0 and Saving Throw stats please.

THAC0 for everybody is 20 since we're all Level 1, right? Or did you mean you want the modifiers for things like STR/DEX/Specialization, etc. factored in?

It's all 20 but not everyone has that I know tad anal or OCD but it helps me after 1st level as it isn't the same in all classes after level 1. Though I like what you're saying factor in specialization and STR/DEX mods in macros please. TY Max

Oh and everyone knows Midani the native language to Zakhara.

Where do we list that on our sheet?

it's a language http://forgottenrealms.wikia.com/wiki/Midani_language

Midani was the common tongue of Zakhara. It was spoken by all "enlightened" citizens of that region as well as by most unenlightened savages of that land. A version of Midani, known as Uloushinn by some scholars, was also spoken by the Bedine.

LOL! I meant the THACO

The weapon portion of the sheet has a spot marked for THAC0
Example:

No... he thinks... I meant TACOS. "Yeah, that's it. Thanks. Now how does it work?" Act natural... yeah that's it.

and yes Bluehorse it is T H A C zero not an O short for To Hit AC Zero

The info for the sha'ir says that he can use any 1st or 2nd level wizard spells. In order to cast anything of a higher level, priest spells, or foreign spells, he has to see the spell. Any chance he may have seen any other spells, of any sort? Also, since Continual Light is on the list of spells he can use, I would like to say he had used it a number of times, and has half a dozen stones he has cast the spell upon. Any objection to that?

That is quite fine with me on the continual light spell. As for the other name a spell and I'll tell you yes or no when it comes to something you are considering? There are ways of obtaining spells that I could say in your time at the city of Muluk you have seen of perhaps higher level. Plus I have yet to hand out the one "Gift" Item from the DM to each of you, mostly because I was waiting for everyone to have a character.

I didn't have anything in particular I was thinking of. I just figured at some point he may have seen something not on the list, clerical spells in particular. Some sort of healing might be the most likely.

Definitely on the healing spells in my mind that would be one of the more common spells that you would likely see being used

Alright I must commend 2 of you have added the "gift" magical item to your character sheets the rest of you I'm sure will add them eventually or suffer the consequences...
