At the moment my brother, step-dad, and I are partying as a Lizardfolk Fighter, Halfling Rogue, and Troglodyte Favored Soul. I seem to think this is doing us just fine, but what do you guys think?

Well you have a Core race with a LA +1 and LA+2 race. What level are you starting at? For classes you seem fine. Favored Soul gets debated around her ea bit for it's usefulness vs brokenness but i've read it over and it looks like a good variant for a divine caster class if you don't mind losing spontaneous heals in exchange for Sorc style casting. You also have damage dealer and sneaker/specialist roles covered, your only hole is some arcane power. Maybe someone could multiclass into Wiz or Sorc, or the rouge could take levels in Bard since that would give you some arcane power and would go well with a rouge character concept.

An aracnist isn't strictly necessary, especially at lower levels. Mostly you need some kind of caster, and the arcane dude is just to spread out the utility spells and run some field control.

Honestly, the game is more fun for everyone involved if the walking one-man-arsenal just doesn't show up to the party.

OP: Your party is fine, but will struggle for lack of hit points early in the level-band. Otherwise you have every key role filled.

Starting level is four. I didn't notice our arcane hole, so maybe my step-dad can multi-class with warmage. That way he can still use his light armor. Thanks muchly.

Who is the DM? If neither you, your brother, or your step-dad is DMing, a DMPC mage could help a lot.

I would suggest trading out the halfling for a kobold. It fits in better with the reptilian humanoid party scheme you have going. Preferably a Kobold Ninja or Sorcerer.

I'm sorry, I just had this mental image of a lizardman, halfling and troglodyte all setting up a barbecue and inviting some girls around, popping a few beers and turning the music up ...

*Shudders* :yuck:

Now that was an image I could have lived without!

I apologise on behalf of my warped brain. I'll just nip off and rinse it in bleach ...
