FRW Character Creator, v.2.0.0
by ladydesire ([email protected])
Updated: 22 January 2008
---Purpose:
This module is designed to help players create balanced characters for use in other community-made modules. It will level your characters and give them an appropriate amount of gold for their new level. It will also permit you to purchase a limited assortment of items so that you can have a basic equipment foundation to take with you into new modules. The emphasis is on creating balanced, not overpowered characters that adhere to the classic D&D equipment magic standards endorsed by the Forgotten Realms Weave (FRW) group. It can also serve as a waystation for characters between modules, allowing you to sell off loot, empty your inventory of unwanted items, and buy new gear/potions.
Finally, it serves as a showcase for FRW modules, allowing users to meet NPC's from these modules, learn about the module offerings available, and purchase some of the custom items from these modules.
---Features:
* Level up your character & receive an appropriate amount of gold for this new level.
* Equip your character with a basic foundation of gear that is appropriate for your level. For low-level characters, these include silver & cold iron masterwork items.
* Meet with NPC's from FRW modules and learn about those modules.
* Access the Bartender's Store, which contains (at a premium price) custom items from FRW modules.
* Sell off loot from previous modules, ditch unwanted items, and re-equip your character between adventures.
* Remove no-drop items from your inventory.
* Do a limited amount of crafting (no magic station).
* Adjust your alignment.
New in this release:
Support for the FRW Persistent Companion System (requires hak file).
Leveling up to Level 30 to support MotB and future Epic Level modules.
1/15: I will be posting an updated version of the FRW Character Creator that supports the Epic Levels currently available in Mask of the Betrayer within the week; I will also be adding support for the FRW Persistant Companion System, including an area that you can use to acquire some available Persistant Companions. Thank you for your patience and your continued interest in this project.
1/22: In addition to the new features mentioned above, I have added a way for a level one character to gain a small amount of gold; simply speak with Chatter as you normally would to level up and select the Level 1 option.
2/15: added the FRW Persistant Companion hak do the list of downloads to ease locating that file.
My last comment should be disregarded... this seems to be a quirk with Tanithiel specifically.

Would be great if you also incorporated a way to directly alter the Persistent companion level.. In particular, I would like a method to delevel a companion if you want to carry forward into a lower level mod...

@sgt_why: The version here fixes some bugs with Tanithiel, so it's probably the one that either is or will be on the FRW PCO download page at some point. That's the only thing that I know of that is different about this one.

Ladydesire Great to see it alive again! We need to talk about adding support for RHoD into the module as well, since its also fully tested with this FRW CC and the Persistent Companion system. btw - is the PCO hak hosted here, the same as the one released last year or does it have updated as well ? If so, I'll need to integrate it into my campaign. _________________________ the Red Hand of Doom campaign .. Click Here

Very good character trainer, and I love that it's specific to the FRW.

Excellent, I've used it to create a good variety of balanced characters. :-) Cheers, Daniel.

@Kravn_Khor: It's not going to happen again; I've placed a copy of the required file here to prevent future occurences.

You probably didn't read what's below and didn't get the companion pack she mentioned, now did you? Ask Maximus to remove the vote one, it's not a fair vote.

@theobeau: I will add a link to the hak when I post the next update so people don't have to hunt for it.
