From Drinking and Dragons
This is where I'll post up my more general use character ideas. I have reems of campaign specific material. Any campaign specific stuff will be made note of for possible removal. Feel free to pirate, though I'd like to hear if it was any fun!

General

Bodyguarding is concept I really like. This started from the concept of a mutli-generational personal bodyguard for a royal line. Unfortunately, I'll never run the campaign because the story arc is too long. So here is Duerenmathar Duergar bodyguard and tank.
Christmas Tree – It wandered the mournlands and nowhere found love. It remembers the fighting and the spirits of its comrades but the details are lost in the mists. Since nothing grows in the mournlands it has taken up travel to grow closer to love. Creates sculptures in the places it has been as signposts and messages for those who follow. [Warforged Spr1] Druid
Smite - Evolved from an attempt at a Derro character. Instead got a theoretical smite build. Presented as a foil
Luon - Gestalt Lurk/Psion

Wilding

Lamikins - Goatfolk are funny.
Swarm - Can do swarmfighting w/out the feat = 4 tiny/sq or 25 dim/sq(reduced). Or can enlarge to threaten 15' area. Pretty nasty against casters, though squirt attack needs ruling.
Incarnum Trampler - Answer to what you can do with too much incarnum.

Arcanis

  • Gnomes, I really like them. Here are some ideas in case I get stoopid.
Varaa Qoe - Escaped slave just learning you can beguile your audience if they aren't dead. Oneiromancer with an illusion focus.
Rahidi - Holy champion who thinks the sorceror king has pages of Althares book and at least one of Yarris pearls. Zen archer and master craftsman.
Zathras - Song master of cadic is just, wow!
  • Can't get this outa my mind Publius Scipio Claperus holy roller using lightning mace to keep the patient sedated. Upper lvl cross-class w/ priest. Unfortunately had to be human or val.
  • Randy wondered about arcane casters. So I threw together some 'loose' builds. Because I'm 'special' I topped them off with appropriate Eberron-goodness. Arcane Charts Made sure they were racially diverse.
  • Randy hates that this is technically legit. Banned. Powder Monkey

Iron Kingdoms

Everyone is a spellcaster and it kinda annoyed me. So I looked into factotum and made this magic as a tool user. Actually quite scary when armored up. Even scarier if built russian doll-style. Small in a medium in a large in a huge... Ironman Uses a good bit of material from Liber Mechanika and a soul sucking tie-in with scion Nevarra. Coulda gone with Ghost Face Killer but that woulda upped the fantasy quotient.
Self sufficient humor build, it really is all in the name Hotjon Fangtrews

Eberron

Kato – Dhakaani bondservant who quietly fulfills all orders. Keeps a tight rein on his emotions and is only truly angered by his past and those who obstruct his master. Only requests leave to meet clan members and obligations privately. [Bugbear] Assasin
Pu - Gameday use for ToB. Yet more inspiration from Yan can cook and Bridge of Birds. Shadow Marcher half-orc specializing in stir-fry.
Deneith - Gameday use for ToB. Sentinel mark is just b@d@$$

Dragonlance

Annoyance build, you Bill me and I'm coming back with this. Drip – Inventor of the alchemic protective suit and highly impressive tactics system, A.P.S.H.I.T. for short. This tinker comes from a storied line of gnomes who defend the king even after death. Drip dreams of joining the company of the dead and defending the skies of his homeland. Exuberant in his enjoyment of all the stages of life and death. [Gnome Brb1] Tank
