ü      Use the Standard Treasure Rating for your ECL to fund your Equipment.  Everyone pays Market Price. (i.e.: Item Creation Feats may NOT be used)  However, Signature/Personalized Magical Items may be used, use the DMG to determine market value for created items.  (Note: Judges may disallow any or all Signature/Personalized Magical Items, so use them at your own risk)

ü      Any Race (Monstrous or otherwise), Class, Prestige Class, Feat, Skill Trick, Spell, Magic Item, Enhancement, or Alternate Class Feature from an Approved Source (see below) may be employed in the build.  The Leadership feat may NOT be used and no Cohorts will be allowed on the field of battle.  Mounts, Animal Companions, and Familiars are acceptable.

ü      All Characters must be Named (and Named so as to promote continuity with the setting).  Brief histories are encouraged, but not required.  Itemized Equipment Lists with market price, weight, and Source must accompany all Character submissions (Personalized Items must have a complete cost breakdown).  Submit all Characters to Scott at least 7 days prior to match.  Late or incomplete submissions will not be accepted.

ü      All Official Errata (i.e.: from Wizards) are in effect.
