So who is this Stam anyway?

Oops...

...I got hooked again. I really do have to learn to examine that bait better...

Oh, wait. I did.

Can you gain levels in geekhood?

You could call it a plot, or a conspiracy. You could even call it happenstance if you wanted...

Digital Dreaming's d20 side, as listed on the sidebar, put up a poll about ECL+1 races. If they were opened, would anyone be interested? I replied in the negative, as I already had two very satisfactory humans. And then popped open Races of Faerun to get a better look at the ECL races available.

I didn't know Aasimar and Tiefling could grow wings. Yes, that was the sound of serious thinking anyone would have heard at the time. And yes, my post was amended. It can't be done at anything less than third character level (which, effectively, means 6,000 XP) and even then the first class level has to be monk, but it can be done.

Just a little bit before this another (occasional) member of the site there pointed me to a forum by name of Forgotten Realms Portal, where a play-by-post game was just in the beginning stages allowing starting characters of 5th level. I'd been halfheartedly contemplating a monk. Human monk, of course.

And then this?

So now I've got another RP addiction to feed. A winged female, Talia 'Fiendtouched' by name. Ex-monk 3/Fighter 1 multiclass. Not to mention that her eyes glow red, her skin's hot to the touch...and she's got a large pair of bat wings.

Does Xarroch like company?

Somewhat intrigued by the idea of playing a flightworthy character, I started poking around to see if there was a Prestige class designed with that idea in mind. And when I found out that there wasn't...

Ahem. Still under construction, so far...comments, suggestions and razzing welcome here or there.

Yup, definitely another level of geekhood. I should probably unearth that roleplaying test that was going around 6+ months ago and retake it...
