So could someone give me a quick run-down of the plot so far? I took up the character mid-combat. Besides knowing we're underground, underequipped, and on the run, I have no idea what's going on.

You have escaped the drow who took you as slaves and were close to sending you to Mezoberranzan. They are chasing you. The group decided to go to Sloobloodop because it was closer to where you were. You're trying to find a way to the surface.

Now, before we go on I have to tell you we're getting close to an opportunity of changing characters. So if you decide you don't want to play the one you're playing anymore, get busy on a new sheet. Same character creation rules and no equipment. You'll have the opportunity of grabbing something from your old character's corpse.
What rules for character gen? Can't seem to spot them :oops:

The default rules from the book. Just make it level 2.

We were all captured separately as part of our backstory by the Drow.

We managed a jail break along with a handful of NPCs. We basically have nothing, or what we stole from the Drow on the way out. We are just trying to get to the surface. One of the NPCs suggested Sloobloodop as our first stop as he was from there so after fighting Drow and other dangers along the way, and loosing a few NPCs to the Underdark dangers, we arrived in town. We were attacked right away, but then this Archpriest showed up to save us. We are just trusting he's a good guy cause we have little other options.

We need food, water, healing, gear, and to be pointed to the surface.

I might be interested in creating a deep gnome illusionist (since we're adventuring in the Underdark).

You can, but don't be limited to Underdark races. All surface dweller races found in the Player's Handbook are available. For svifnerblin use the forest gnome subrace.

So, a couple of questions: what were the character creation rules concerning ability scores? I can't seem to remember.

Also, Ferrus was asking the kuo-toa about an arcane focus.
