[D&D 4e] Doorway to Chaos
Interest Check - One Shot 18th-Level Game [ "Plot" ]
Beyond the massive wooden doors before you is your final challenge, at the bottom of a fortress high in the mountains.
You can hear the chanting of the cultist through the doors, the smell of many burning fires, and can see the glow of the portal they are attempting to open from the space under the doors.
You have overcome many challenges to come to this point, during which you learned about the cult attempting to open a portal to the Elemental Chaos. You learned that their leader, a former resident of those planes, who has many allies waiting for him on the other side which will spill into this world when the portal is opened - causing widespread destruction, and death. His motives are simple - he desires no money, nor power - he simply wishes to watch the world burn.
You are the only thing that stand between the world's destruction, and its' safety. As you move up to the doors to throw them open, you only hope that you are strong enough to overcome what awaits you on the other side.
[ The Details ]
Hey all.
I've been kind of interested in seeing how higher-level combats in 4e go lately, so I figured I'd see if there was any interest in doing a one-shot 18th-level battle?
It'll essentially be a big 'end of campaign' sort of battle, hence the little introduction above.
18th level; standard 22 point-buy; standard wealth; etc.. Any other details to be figured out once I see if anyone would be interested.
I'll probably be limiting resources to what I have available to me, simply for sake of ease. This includes the core three books (MM, PHB, DMG), Arcane Power, Martial Power, Player's Handbook 2, Forgotten Realms Player's Guide, and Adventurer's Vault.
So.. anyone? xD

I'm interested, not sure what i'd play just yet, but i too am curious about high-level 4E play.
is this just gonna be one big battle, or a few encounters leading up to the climax?

At the moment, the idea is just one big battle.
Though spacing it out over a few 'separate' encounters is something I will consider.

Sounds promising, and I've been jonesing for a new game, even if it is just one battle... Maybe I'll finally make the barbarian I've been wanting to make since I first got into 4e...

Well, I believe that is 3. Er - 4, since someone told me they may be interested over AIM. If we can get 5, I'll start getting things together for this (but with running the contest, it may take me a little bit).
I'll probably accept up to 6 or 8 people.

Hm, I was also thinking of an Eladrin Spear Warlord. That way we would have a leader.

A leader would be nice if we are going into the Elemental Chaos

Mmkay... Here are the rules for character creation. I already have a vague idea of what I'm going to do for the battle. If there are no objections, I figure we can do all rolling/playing in this thread here instead of me making a second one for it.
This stuff will also be in the first post, but I figured you'd all be looking for (newer) posts when coming to the thread. xD.

Hrm..
Arc (and everyone else) - would you mind please marking down where you've pulled things from which are outside core? Like feats, powers, and such.
Looking at just the feats alone of Arc's character, I only can recall like 3/4s of them.. the rest I'm drawing an utter blank for, and it'll save me from having to hunt everything down.

Soveliss, Eladrin defender of good guys/stabber of bad guys. He's by no means finished, but I figured I should throw it up.

Notated. Everything I have is from PHB and PH2, where all the barb/avenger stuff is.
