I am going to be writing some Dungeon Delves using Masterplan. In fact, at the time of writing this, I have not only written two Delves, but I have recorded and submitted segments for a podcast and sent them to Jared at The Power Source, one of the many (many) podcasts that I listen to.
Granted, Jared did a very smart thing: he held a contest. He is giving away a Player's Handbook 3, a copy of The Jester, and a copy of The Explorer, both of which are classes that he came up with. The entry: a segment for his show. Curse you, Jared, for making me actually record and possibly get me started in podcasting!
Anyway, as I was starting to say; I am going to be writing some Dungeon Delves. These will be of various levels, and will be tailored to parties of 5 PCs, and can be inserted into a variety of campaigns. I am doing this not only to get my own creativity flowing, but to hopefully share some fun games that other DMs can pick up at a moment's notice if they haven't had time to get their game prepared for the week, or if they are going to run a one-off game for a new group.
To this end, I want to create a pool of ten characters that can be chosen and used for any of these Delves. These characters will span all of the PC roles, and if the DM decides to have a one-off, can just print off five of these PCs at the appropriate level and head out to the game.
Are there any suggestions for a must-have PC? I have a tentative list in my head, and I plan on taking a class or two in a fairly unlikely direction. For instance, instead of an elven archer ranger, I plan on doing something with a dwarf for my ranger build. More on that later...
