[@The Harbinger of Ferocity] In addition to Cu's questions, I might suggest that starting at lvl 5 might be an option for a combat-heavy campaign. That's where casters get cantrip bonuses, martial classes get Extra Attack, and full casters have enough spells to feel useful without needing a long rest every three battles. In addition, the DMG provides suggestions for starting gear at lvl 5. Just a suggestion; I don't mind starting at lvl 3, but the low levels are simply not as fun for me personally (I've had plenty of campaigns get to lvl 5 and just stop).

Also, if this is intended to be a live game, I will be unable to join, as I simply don't have the uninterrupted free time for it. If it's PBP on the forum, I shouldn't have any issues. Still trying to figure out a character idea, but I'm considering a martial bard.
