Well... my PC has been in my signature the whole time. I'll keep the spreadsheet updated each session with any significant changes to my equipment. Is there an official way I should be posting it? The signature just seemed to make sense because then my character sheet will always be with my posts for quick and easy reference in case your wondering how it is I think I can do a certain thing.
I try to play honest, but sometimes I confuse another DM's house-rules for RAW, which is why I thought you might like easy, on-the-fly access to all my character's info. If you have a question about my actions in game, my readily available character sheet and equipment chart can help answer any questions about my personal strengths and weaknesses and empower you to make an informed judgment.
Sounds perfect, the fact tht you posted and highlighted that fact is perfect. I just need them consolidated in one place

Special Abilities:
composite plating: +2 to ac due to construction. Treated as wearing light armor at all times
Fortification: 25% immunity to critcal hits and sneak attacks
Immunity to poisons and level drain
Doesn't need to sleep, eat, or breathe
1d4 natural slam attack
dagger, silk rope (50 ft), flint and steel, lantern hooded, pint of oil (10), rain cloak, masterwork artisans tools.
Darkvision: Dwarves can see in the dark up to 60 feet.
Stonecunning: This ability grants a dwarf a +2 racial bonus on
Search checks to notice unusual stonework, such as sliding walls,
stonework traps, new construction (even when built to match the
old), unsafe stone surfaces, shaky stone ceilings, and the like.
Something that isn’t stone but that is disguised as stone also
counts as unusual stonework. A dwarf who merely comes within
10 feet of unusual stonework can make a Search check as if he
were actively searching, and a dwarf can use the Search skill to
find stonework traps as a rogue can. A dwarf can also intuit depth,
sensing his approximate depth underground as naturally as a
human can sense which way is up. Dwarves have a sixth sense
about stonework, an innate ability that they get plenty of
opportunity to practice and hone in their underground homes.
Weapon Familiarity: Dwarves may treat dwarven waraxes and
dwarven urgroshes (see Chapter 7:Equipment) as martial
weapons, rather than exotic weapons.
Stability: Dwarves are exceptionally stable on their feet. A dwarf
gains a +4 bonus on ability checks made to resist being bull
rushed or tripped when standing on the ground (but not when
climbing, flying, riding, or otherwise not standing firmly on the
ground).
+2 racial bonus on saving throws against poison: Dwarves are
hardy and resistant to toxins.
+2 racial bonus on saving throws against spells and spell-like
effects: dwarves have an innate resistance to magic spells.
+1 racial bonus to attack rolls against orcs (including half-orcs)
and goblinoids (including goblins, hobgoblins, and bugbears):
+2 racial bonus on Appraise checks that are related to stone or
metal items
+2 racial bonus on Craft checks that are related to stone or metal:Dwarves are especially capable with stonework and metalwork.
+4 dodge bonus to Armor Class against monsters of the giant type
(such as ogres, trolls, and hill giants)
Background:
Spoiler
Being a paladin in the family of Brightshield has always been a
tradition. From generation to generation no matter the sex. Both
brothers and sisters has always been following the steps of their
ancestors. That's something that Mjolnir likes and dislikes.
He enjoys himself as a defender of dwarven rights and a
follower of Moradin. He believes in justice, he believes that
if you do something good somehow it will return to you. Thanx
to Moradin their family lived well.
The one think he couldn't stand is that his younger sister was
to become a paladin too. "War is a man's problem to overcome and
think about." That's what he used to tell his sister when the
discussion was to the great wars that their fathers had been
and to the greater his children will be. The real problem was
that she would eventually, she was more qualified than him, become
a better paladin.. The truth is that Mjolnir felt like he was not
good enough to become the great protector of justice he, and
mainly his father would like he to become. And that was enough
to be not satisfied with himself. He never gave up though!
He was proud for his big ginger beard of his and it was his honor
to hold his father's axe, destined to smite the evil of the land.
The last mission and the point of his life, where you find him, was
to go to Oakridge and find a dwarf outlaw, a dangerous wanted man
and bring him to justice. That's at least what the rumors were about.
Dwarven style ^,^ :

Aweseome, Kalegkos! You've got a pretty sweet Paladin there. I wish I could see the Myth Weavers one. It says I don't have permission. I guess I have to be a member or something. But based on your stats, I think we've got our tank.
Except... erm... shouldn't you have a 4 in Know: Religion? It looks like you have 0, but you put 4 ranks into it and don't appear to have any INT penalties.

@missmvicious You are right i corrected that. I hate when i don't have enough skills Well the only think i'd like to have better it's charisma but with 15 as higher score that was the best i could do.. And probably that's the case for the myth weavers. If anyone knows if there'a way to fix it be my guest.
@Vixsor They are like cleric's. Protections and cures, bless restorations and things like that.

Even tried, even failed. No matter Try again, fail again. fail better.
Paladins heal through their Lay on Hands ability which doesn't cure as many hit points as a Cleric's ability, but it can cure multiple people in a touch range. Also, they can detect evil at will and they can smite evil a certain number of times per day, which deals extra damage to evil creatures. A Paladin really shows their mettle against evil or undead creatures. Any weapon they wield is considered Good for the purposes of overcoming DR and a lot of their magic is designed to weaken or kill evil or undead enemies. Plus, the Paladin is a natural leader who works well with the Leadership feat and gets a sweet mount at a certain level. Their casting ability is nothing compared to a Cleric, Druid, or Wizard, but their fighting ability is about on par with a Fighter, and their casting is somewhere in the same ballpark as a Ranger. They're a lower tier class, so they tend to be one-trick ponies who are really hard to optimize, but they remain a solid character choice for the frontline tank, or in any zombie apocalypse campaign.
I actually meant they're casting ability stat but! I still learned a lot hahaha like about the DR and that Lay on Hands affected multiple targets so thank you! Now if only we could get the rest of the party involved.... Should someone PM them?

@Vixsor What is your character is made of? Material i mean.
@missmvicious I don't think anyone got lost. I will check my skype, i got Howl. There are probably having some hard time with their jobs/whatever probably.
@everyone. Y U NO LET US KNOW YOU ARE ALIVE??

I'm thinking obsidian for the most part, with a deep rosewood for the muscles. Also because he's a psiforged, inlays of deep crystal in swirling patterns, leading to a large crystal in his chest. the crystal will glow when I still have PP stored in it. Also most of his emotion is going to be portrayed through body language and his eyes. I'm thinking mood eyes, that change color to fit his mood.
Well, regarding Howl and crazydude369, I hope they make it. The team really isn't complete without them. If they can't join, I know some people who may want in. Is that even an option, DM? I don't know the rules for adding players in PbP, but I don't want to mention the option to my friends until I know for sure whether or not Howl and craydude369 are dropping out.

pretty close! Haha except a bit darker on the wood, instead of having ridges of crystal, they are all connected like on the pictures thighs ;p I hope they can make it , we at least need a skill monkey if we can't have Howl and crazydude
@missmvicious:
I'll PM Howl today, along with Crazy. If I hear no response by tonight at say...10:00, I will say it here at 10:30-ish.
Then, they are in.
Can you tell them the backstory the world is set in, and tell them the "anything goes" for Races/Classes, as long as it isn't cheesy ? Just because I have stuff on my plate and all . Then tell them to have a character in by say...Wednesday, anytime will do. I'm sorry if we got to keep the wait up, I want to help them with their characters at that point. So We'd start: Friday. A Perfect day because I'd have nothing to do then or really worry about .

@ DM: They taught me how to play D&D, so they won't need any help with builds. I'll check in at 10:30 to see what's up and shoot them the text once I have an update.
@Vixsor Lumin: Don't worry. Bard's make pretty decent back-up skill monkeys. We can use Bardic Knowledge in place of any Knowledge check, and we eventually can use Inspire Competence to boost anyone's skill check we want. So let's say you're trying to do a UPD check; I'll just use Inspire Competence to buff it up, or if Mjolnir is performing a Heal check, I can help that along to. A Bard isn't just an entertainer with illusion magic; she's a jack-of-all-trades who makes everyone better at what they already do.
Can't we wait a little more? About a day? You don't know if anything happened. And as missmvicious said for her friends it won't be trouble to make characters. So we still have time. I am saying this just in case guys show up a day later or sth..
@missmvicious You know that i haven't put any rank on Heal :P I hope at
"take 10" and the +2 wisdom
@Vixsor You look pretty kewl! Like a medieval robocop I was asking because you might would be something that Mjolnir admires a lot. You know the whole structure thing
I am finally done with the crappy exams i have at Thursday and i will have more time to post after that. Btw do you mind telling me what kind of hours will you mostly be online and playing? I want to figure out what time would it be here. GMT+2, Greece.

The DC for long term care is 15, so it's doable even without any ranks in it. Getting the Self-Sufficient feat and buying a Healer's Kit will give you +4 to Heal without using any skill points. Add that to my inspire competence bonus and you have better than a 50% chance of restoring HP or curing diseases with a long-term care check.
Also, I check the board sporadically. I rarely wake up before 2 pm, since I'm usually up and active between 8 pm and 6 am. But I take breaks in the day to check the Playground and other such things.
@Kalekgos: I tend to be on Sporadically from 4 - 12

Hmmmmmm I can post randomly all day from about 7 am to 3am.
I guess the three of us could cover all the bases, but we'd be stretched very thin
I herped the derp on the outfit. I was hand-drawing my character and realized how non-fluff it is to have an entertainer's outfit when I'm a public speaker. I went with something more demure and sophisticated: the Courtier's (Courtesan, in this case) Outfit. I didn't spend the 50 gp on the gems and jewelry, which is ok, because I don't think she should look upper-class so much as someone who is trying to look professional... like a pro-bono laywer in a cheap suit vs. the slick corporate lawyer in the designer suit.
It's free, since it's the first outfit, but unlike the Entertainer's Outfit, it removes a circumstance penalty when speaking to aristocracy or nobility, so I want to bring it up to you. If it's not ok to make that change, then I'll figure something else out. Adventuring in a bodice and flowing dress won't be as easy as adventuring in tights, riding boots and a tunic, but I like the idea of the look and riding skirts weren't unheard of during the renaissance era (which is what I assume we're deriving the fashion from).
Besides, it's fantasy. If we can believe that a girl will adventure in a battle bra and steel thong while swinging a claymore like it was a feather duster, then I can wear a pretty dress. ^_^
@missmvicious: Perfectly reasonable , I'm not used to players worrying about how Clothes affect Rolls, so i find this mentality to be a very Very pleasant change of Pace.

I would worry about it, but my skin is armor soooo... I think my guy is just dobbins run around naked. I do have a cloak to keep the rain off though, wouldn't want to rot out my muscles
Lol. Thanks, DM! I'll take that as a compliment. I'm all about the fluff. I mean, if you're not going to get into the character, then why play an RPG?
So anyway's, updates ben made. I'll just keep doodling Ellyjobel until 10:30. I'm struggling with her dress pattern. It's inspired by Madame de Pompadour:
Spoiler
but simpler, to reflect her humbler social status (I'm leaning towards middle class) and her youthful energy, which means she probably wouldn't be interested in being bogged down with all those layers. Anyway, I'll be on and off throughout the night! See ya!
RSS Feeds: 
Low Op 3.5; The golden veil OOC
Where is everybody? Did Howl and crazydude369 not make it?
Well the only think i'd like to have better it's charisma but with 15 as higher score that was the best i could do.. And probably that's the case for the myth weavers. If anyone knows if there'a way to fix it be my guest.
