| (All characters must have an ECL of at most 5. Your call on how you do this with regards to levels and templates.)
For some reason or another, you awaken in a jail cell on the sky island of "Kirrel". You've little to no memory as to how you got onto this island or really anything after roughly 2 weeks ago. Around you are a few other mis-matched "felons". What do you do? | |

Actually, first, I go roll a character. =P | |

| Effective Character Level.
Why does everyone ask this? | |

| ECL is effective character level. You guys tend to use a lot of templates, this correctly limits them. This also allows for flexibility, if you want to use templates that add 4 to your ECL you can if you make a level 1 character. Dylan may be better at explaining the semantics but yeah | |

| Nope, you got the semantics pretty much nailed. I don't know exactly how Jeebus will work it, but I always work it as, you level at the rate your ECL would level at. Which, is not good for limiting early on, but will screw you up later if you don't balance for it. That... is all I have to say on the subject. | |

| Oh, so if you take multiple levels, they have to add up to 4? | |

| (Assuming Eleilla is approved)... Eleilla sits up, rubbing her eyes drowsily, then quickly realising that she's not in the monastery, checks to see if she still has her stuff on her. In particular, her thief tools. She may be reformed, but she's paranoid. =P | |

| You realise you have a total of clothes. Clean ones. It's very clear you've been changed and washed. You can see others around you, all in handcuffs like yourself. | |

| I am gonna ignore everyone else, and see if I can find something to pick the locks on my cuffs with. Failing that, I'm gonna try and wriggle out of them, like a boss. =P | |

| You wander the cell around you for a little while and realise that the place is completely clean, there are no bits on the floor no dirt no anything. This place is literally just the cleanest jail cell you've ever seen. When you attempt to pull your wrists out you find that the cuffs just get tighter. | |

| Latra looked up, not about to but into the conversation or anything, and stared the man right in the eyes in annoyance. She was in a jail cell, not something that was a new experience or anything, however this time it was new. The place was unfamiliar, and oddly clean. She had been imported to a prison, and that probably meant she did something very, very bad. | |

| Oh god. Zak. No. Why would you be mildly aggressive with a character with four charisma! =P Eleilla looks up at you, and recognising your short stature and heavy build to be dwarven, shouts back at you. "Af! Okab ot angaz, Bolg!" (You! Free me of my bonds, fatso!) She then holds her cuffs out towards you. | |

| I stare at her blankly. "What am I supposed to do, bite them apart?" I ask, raising a golden eyebrow. | |

| "Don't worry, if you keep tugging, they start to feel looser after a while!"
I know that's not the case, but it's much funnier than being a team player. =P | |
