Complete Listing of Character kits - revised

[TGreywolfe]

Here is a complete list of character kits grouped by class with references to
official AD&D Texts. Kits for specific races are featured at the end, with the
class requirements in parenthesis. Note that many other kits may be limited to
certain races (especially those from the Complete Book of Humanoids).
Obviously, some are limited to certain races by virtue of class alone
(Paladins, Rangers, etc.) Thanks to all of you who helped to compile this
information.

I am also working on a similar list to show all proficiencies in
AD&D. Please send any new proficiencies you may have from the Complete Books
of Gnomes and Halflings, and Humanoids, and The Complete Thief's, Priest's, and
Druid's Handbooks. Also any from the blue DM's handbooks (Sages and
Specialists, Necromancers, etc.) would be appreciated. Here's the list:

Timoth,

Please list a complete list of the sources you used. This will help everyone
out incredibly when it comes time to add more.

Impressive work. But al-Qadim is still misspelled with a "qu".

Not kits; priest sub-class, actually. Same for mystic and monk.

There are no kits in the Complete Psionicist's Handbook. The kits you
have marked as such are found in "The Will & The Way" instead.

What a wonderful archive. Useful still 20+ years later. Thanks all!

Errata:

For anyone looking for the "samurai paladin" kit listed above: this should be "saurial paladin," meaning a paladin kit for the finhead saurial PC subrace described in Complete Book of Humanoids, the book where the kit is found. (This kit represents the character Dragonbait from the Forgotten Realms novels.)

I don't want that note to overshadow my admiration for the hard work that went into this list, though. I'm still getting use out of it in 2023. If you're reading replies here after all these years, T.G., thank you.

Well, with praise like that, now I have to go and find the original
article. (oddly enough, my provider doesn't archive all the way back
to 1999 ;-).

So if you're also weirdly interested in the topic, here's the original
post: https://groups.google.com/g/rec.games.frp.dnd/c/rL3rBC4GvY0


I was never a fan of AD&D 2nd Ed kits; too often, they were poorly
thought out. They were either over- or under-powered, added
unnecessary complexities to the rules, and generally could have been
better done with simple role-playing rather than creating entirely new
classes and rules. I allowed them in my campaigns, but only
grudgingly, and they rarely worked well.

The books themselves, though, were useful sources of inspiration and,
I admit, I bought too many of them. I don't blame TSR for pumping them
out the way they did - the money was too good - but I wish some more
thought had been put into their development.
