I have a PDF of the Player's Handbook, which I will e-mail to you if you don't have a copy, you don't need to memorize it or anything, but it would help to have it handy for this game.If you want to play another race,then No level adjustments above +1.If you give me a good reason to play a race that's not +1 level adjustment I might let you. If you want a different class, just ask(I know all classes for 3.5).

Nope, that sounds about right to me. I like SirNoobalot's formation best, I think that's the one we should use. And I think the Paladin should be in front because of the lantern and the armor. Detect Evil...gimme a second.... According to Player's Handbook, Detect Evil has a 60 ft. radius, so it should be able to detect evil from both the front and back of the party.
Alright, The Ranger is moving foward and "carefully" tracking,The Barbarian is taking point, The Paladin is in the rear, the rogue is behind the Barbarian and the Wizard behind him. Now then, if anyone else posts, READ THIS FIRST!. That should do it, are there any objections?
Let's try this one more time, The Ranger is moving foward and "carefully" tracking,The Paladin is taking point, The Barbarian is in the rear, the rogue is behind the Barbarian and the Wizard behind him.
I'm two hours behind the site. I usually go to bed around 10. Anyway, yeah, let's go talk to the alchemist's place...dangit, what's it called? I know it's got like..."ory" or "ectomy" or something like that it, but I forgot! D:

Changed my name :O No. You got the front right, but the wizard and rogue will be walking beside each other, with the Barbarian behind them, taking up the rear.
Right then.(sound of dice rolling) as you approach the Halfway House you see a large group of Kobolds attacking it. There appear to be at least 12 of them and 6 more of those "Toads"(see earlier combat). It looks like the house is beginning to burn and the residents are still inside. The mob of kobolds are surrounding the house completely and are as of yet unaware of your movements.
So have I. I also changed my gender and finally made a description. I dunno why, it was a little weird to be the only female in the group, plus "Hyperion" is awesome and it doesn't work for a girl =(.
Scratch that, I am going to try to sneak around the back, where there are no Kobolds to see me and jump in a window. And, no, Hyperion doesn't work for a chika.
uh shadowjak135, there are a bunch of kobolds "surrounding" the building, how are you going to get through them? ThorRatFox you probably won't be able to get them all before they notice you, but this is what planning is for, so I ask you again:
The paladin, not wanting to attack any enemy dishonorably from behind and finding that the people trapped inside are the priority, runs up and shoves a kobold out of the way to run into the house in an attempt to save the people inside. The enemies will have to be left for the others. Not the smartest move I ever made, turning my back on the enemy like that, but I think that it is what my character would do, so that's what I'll do. Besides, I am running fairly quickly. I got ninja'd.
