I have a PDF of the Player's Handbook, which I will e-mail to you if you don't have a copy, you don't need to memorize it or anything, but it would help to have it handy for this game.If you want to play another race,then No level adjustments above +1.If you give me a good reason to play a race that's not +1 level adjustment I might let you. If you want a different class, just ask(I know all classes for 3.5).

Ereliel:"So a tingle you might feel can cause which 'side' you take, your side or the Elf side? Is that the only form of quarrel that will be happening, Human vs.Elf or Human vs. Elves? No, it won't. We will fight among ourselves just as you probably will with those of your race at some point. The fact that we happen to outnumber you is irrelevant because we are on the same side working towards the same goal. It should be person-on-person, not race-to-race."
"The tingle just represents the thought in the back of your head, I have seen it happen many times before people at each others throats forgetting there dislike of each other and banding against another for no other reason than race."
Erel:"There are legitimate reasons to hate a Race, but those betweens Humans and Elves are near-nonexistent. Other than our Fey cousins, all Elves are more similar to Humans than to any other race, and our kinds consort with one another every day without much meaningless quarrel. Hell, there are even Half-Elves to testify to this! There is no good reason for our kinds to feel those type of feelings towards one another based solely on race, the only hate is what one brings with him."
"I understand your fear of creating a dichotomy in the group if a council is chosen," Remiel says coolly. "But I also understand that a council may be best, that way a single person does not hold all the power in the group and there is an easier way to unseat them. What if we were to compromise? Instead of three leaders on a council, make it two leaders. One would do most of the actual leading...the other would be...what do you call it? A vice-leader, a lieutenant, yes? They would help their leader, communicate with the group, make sure the leader does not become corrupt, and so on. They would also take over as leader if something should happen to the original. With two, not just one person holds all the power in the group, but an aristocracy is not created either."
"I still believe a counsel will be best. although the rest can't vote one of the people in the counsel acts as a moderator that way the rest of the group can use the moderator to put their word in the rest of the counsel"
sorry, the way I wrote that was incorrect what I meant to say was
"I still believe a counsel will be best. Although, it is true that the rest wont have say. how about one of the members in the counsel were to be a moderator that communicates with the rest of the group and can put in a word in for who isn't in the counsel to the people in the counsel."
