So, one of the players from my group says he's got a D&D campaign he wants to run, which we'll do opposite of the Saga-game I'll be running for them, and appearently, I'm the last to be informed of this, and thus, the last to pick what to play. Now, the two others are going with a Monk (this guy is the very opposite of a power-gamer - he'll sometimes do things like outfitting his mid-level fighters with wicker-armor for the sake of 'roleplaying', without any particular reason for it...) and a Fighter. I've been told that classes from the PHB and PHB2 are allowed by default, but anything outside that, I'll have to run by him first.

Now, my first thought here was to go with a Wood Elf Druid, but... I've never been able to get into Druids before, and I'm afraid that'll happen again. The group needs some kind of spellcaster, be it arcane or divine, but I'm also concidering Rogue, using Use Magic Device to activate healing wands and whatnot. I haven't gotten to play a character in a tabletop game for well over a year, now, so I keep going back and forward about what I'd like to try. So, if anyone out there has some interesting concepts in mind that might fit the small group we've got (preferably a spellcaster of some kind), I could certainly use the help in making up my mind. Thanks in advance for any and all replies. :)


Edit: Useful information about the game:
Starting level - 2
Ability scores - 4d6 drop lowest, reroll 1s (I rolled 9, 13, 13, 15, 16, 18)
Setting - homebrew

And, that's about what I know so far, heh.

I had an idea for a game we were going to play a while ago, and we only played two sessions before we called it quits. I ran an Aasimar Favored Soul (in the PHB 2 I believe). It had the healing spells and everything. I don't quite remember everything about the class in particular, but it was opposite of the cleric, to where you don't know every spell and you have to prepare, you just know a certain number of spells (ala the wizard).

I was planning on taking him through Radiant Servant of Pelor (Complete Divine) because it is a super badass class for healing. The Elf Druid would be cool too. I hope this helps you out some, from what I could tell when we quit the game, my character was going to be pretty cool.

I like the Favored Soul, but it's in Complete Divine, which I'm not sure if we're allowed to use or not. I'm also not sure how deities will work in this campaign, but he's hinted at using the Asgardian Pantheon out of Deities & Demigods. Might be fun to do a battle-priest of Thor, hehe. :)
