The hell with it, gonna give it a shot. Rolling a completely unfunded Paladin.

And we'll see how far I can make it before I give up. It will probably take me months to reach the high levels, if I do. I have a plan for the early-mid levels that will hopefully get me some pocket change for the essentials, and I'll be slowly working on necessary faction and items for the epic along the way.

1-5: Farm decayed skeletons in West Freeport until the sun don't bloody shine no more. Sell bone chips at level 5, buy Sword of Skyfire and a cheap magic shield to bash with.
5-9: Orc centurion camp in Greater Faydark. Save all belts. Turn them in at 9 for new armor. Get new spells.
9-13: Wall camp in Crushbone. Save all belts and shoulderpads. Turn them in at 13 for new armor. Pick up level 15 spells.
13-21: Unrest. Back to Felwithe at 21 to pick up new spells.
21-25: Mistmoore, pond camp. Will be looking for a chance to loot Xicotl here, but I don't expect it. Leave at 25, pick up level 30 spells at Felwithe.
25-39: Highpass Keep. Goblins from 25-33, saving up all ears to sell and making as much coin as possible. By 33 I should have enough money to afford a Sword of the Morning and some real equipment, namely 55HP rings. Move to Highpass Guards from 33-39. At 39, rejoice that I now have good spells to work with.

From there I don't know, probably City of Mist, LGuk, and/or KC. Getting to that point is the challenge though. So we'll see if I have the patience to make it.
