RE: Brainstorming Character
Ok. The part that says (DM needed) clearly could do with some work.
Its always best if your goals can be moved forward without one. Perhaps one could improve it, but requirinf a DM is generally a bad route.
Try and break your goal(s) down into segments.
Lizard man wrote an interesting post about this recently, and various resources in the….. Player resources forum can help too.
I might get a lil slap for linking this again, a few players have a small hatred for the term adventure and intrigue... But seriously. This thread should help you.
Awesome that you have a concept sorted out with a background and personality, the thread should help with your 5 and 6
ADVENTURE and INRIGUE ™

RE: Tips for playing a Hardcore character?
Deserves a once per day heal spell item IMO.
Or a once per day high DC (somehow…..) sanctuary item.

RE: When Bad Things Happen
Agree with Jasede a lot.
There are certainly many times when no FD is beneficial though.
Taking someones leg and telling them if anything happens to character X it'll be rhier head coming off next, could/should have that character trying to stop any of the plans against character X even if he instigated them.
Course, you'd have to follow through on the threat.

RE: Tips for playing a Hardcore character?
If you have the dex, take the mobility and spring attack feats. See, then if you have to run away, you dont get AOO'd to death while fleeing, and if you drink a potion as you flee, the AOO, is at +4 dodge ac anyway.
Buy a heal potion as soon as possible. They are essentially an extra life.
Obvious one is always keep invis quickslotted. A haste potion too, this allows you to flee with extra ac to boot.
Never, ever, ever, be encumbered. If your in a battle, and get strength drained to encumberance, throw away something heavy. You can find gold and buy it again later, or find something similar.
Bout all i can think of right now.
By the way. Love the dedicated healer. Need more.

RE: Changes to PrCs: Feedback
You dont get prestige classes simply by writing apps. You have to earn them in game (then write an app) so…. No.

RE: Brainstorming Character
Seemed like a mix of concepting and something else. Not entitely certain the brief personal history was necassary but, sorry to hear all that.
Heres an idea.
How about you create a half elf. And apply for a special familiar (fairy dragon?) much more likely to get accepted as its a small change and probably easy to do. You could play pretty much the same concept and change the background a little bit. Or don't even apply for that and just use one of the standard familiars (parrot might work?) it wouldnt be fairies, but its an option.
If you are still committed to the fairy thing, try focussing on what you could do to make things fun for others right away after creation. Preferably that do not require a DM. The goal could be very simple, and then broken down into lots of fun and interesting sections.

RE: Brainstorming Character
I advise you read through the player resources forum a bit.
Theres a post or three about creating a character concept that might help you considerably.
Those two should help you a lot. If you read them fully, and think about what they say, then answer some questions honestly about your current concepting ideas / methods.
I hope this helps.
