Re: Sign-up and OOC
I always prefer to start out around lvl 5, I was thinking 3-5, but I can just as easily bump that to 4-6 without it making much of a difference. I only have 3.5 available right now, so that's the version we'd be playing. I recommend getting as many of the monster manuals as possible, but you really only need 1 and 3. For equipment, you can start out with anything you want that's not magic and not too powerful, and you get one minor magic item of your choice (for example, a +1 longsword or a ring of minor fire resistance.) but you're all starting out with very little actual money.
It would be open to any class, and any race with a level mod less than or equal to 2. It would be set in Faerun, probably around the Silver Marshes, starting maybe in Neverwinter or Waterdeep. You'll be a group of mercenaries hunting a group of evil adventurers who have been doing a great deal of harm in the area. None of you have met before unless you decide otherwise.
One thing to note: unless you get really really lucky, or you really want to keep using the same characters, everybody's going to die at the end. You're going up against a group of my characters from a previous campaign, all of whom are high level and decked out in powerful magic equipment. I'll give you more information about them if/when we start the campaign.

I x'ed out some of it in case a torrent link would get the forum into trouble. You can just take what you need.
