[1d4+2] = 2+2 = 4

Converting excess gp into gems as well, if that's kosher.
convert to PP unless you need the gem for a spell

Stat rolls!

Okay, I created an account (named Runnik for the character with the ID for this campaign) and clicked "roll stats" using 4d6c1 and got the following:

Stats: STR:15, INT:15, WIS:17, DEX:11, CON:16, CHR:14

Stats: STR:15, INT:15, WIS:17, DEX:11, CON:16, CHR:14

That was much better than I was expecting. Huh. Um.

I think that there's already a Druid (two druids are a bad match, IME). So I'll leave it up to others-
1. Monk, with a Dex swap? It's unusual to have the minimum prerequisites for an AD&D monk. Does that fit the campaign?
2. Paladin?

If neither, I can do a standard cleric or fighter. Kind of at a loss- I don't normally get good stats (in the other PbP game, I rolled on 15, the next highest was a 12).

You're call. Go with what you'd like IMO. ;)

Equipment bought, still working on character sheet (going to add history/description next).

Quick question - not playing with OSRIC or variant specialization, right? So just regular "these are the weapons I use" proficiencies? And if that's the case, can I leave any open for now?

Not bad when the worst you have are 2 9's I'd call that a good roll day. ;)

Rolls are pretty good for HP too. Only one 3 for a total of 35 for Fighter thief isn't bad F4/T5 With +1 for Con.
