D&D 3.5: The underpowered idiots

I have an idea: A great evil has arrived and worst of all, succeeded. The whole multiverse is in darkness and chaos, full of evil. The great champions of the good, neutral and evil but sane deities are killed or captured.

It is up to the underpowered idiots to save them... so they can save the world.

The surviving gods united under a common cause, despite their old rivalries and have gathered their last and least chosens.


A Ranger 20 with Sword of the Arcane order feat to manage the Int skills checks and be a skillmonkey
A True Neutral Divine Mind 20 that provides ranged attack and buffs the party
A Lawful Evil Soulborn 20 the focuses in smashing things.

And yours truly, a Neutral Evil Hexblade 20 that is the Face and debuffs enemies.

We are searching a GM that can lead this underpowered level 20 party. Can we survive a CR 20 challenge? Can we survive a Wizard 8?

Naturally,, we invite other players too. A paladin devoted to heal would be great. Also a Sohei that can aid our front liner.
The idea is that we don't go further than the "warrior with minor spellcasting" archetype. So, only rangers, paladins, sohei, soulborns, hexblades and divine minds, please.


We are looking for a GM that isn't afraid of providing a story for a bunch of underpowered characters, even when they are level 20. The idea is to explore the limits of the classes. We would want to have access to all the books and Dragon Magazine (The 3.5 conversion for the Sohei and the hex feats are there, among other things).

Hope to read from you soon!

Odd concept. For me, "underpowered" and "level 20" are concepts which do not go smoothly together…

That is one of the reasons I want to try it. Hexblade, Soulborn, Sohei and Divine Mind are, with fighter, classes that are considered Tier 4 at best. The Ranger and Paladin have more support so they can reach Tier 3. Facing Wizards with 9th level spells with them would be very challenging. In fact, I think that facing wizards with 7th level spells would also be quite challenging for them.
