Allow Iconic TRs to pick any first level class

[oradafu]

To be honest, I'm not that impressed with the Iconic Past Life feats, especially the Sunelf.

But there is one thing that might spark my interest in doing Iconic TRs: allowing me to pick the first level class from creation. I'm not suggestion that a single Iconic TR unlocks it for all Iconics, just the one that matches the Past life feat.

For example, by gaining the Bladeforged past life feat, players will no longer be locked into the Paladin class anymore. However, if the same character choices to be a Purple Dragon Knight, they must start as a Fighter until they gain the Purple Dragon Knight past life feat.

I think players may be more receptive to Iconic TRing if this happens. Right now, there's little to be gained in Iconic TRing, especially with the high cost in COV and XP.

If you already have that Iconic past life this would be a good option

This would be very nice, and I think having it unlock after getting the first life would be great - you've done you penance, so to speak, so now you're free to build like you want.

I still say, that there should be 2 options:

1. Allow players to be lvl15 with 1st level in chosen class

or

2. Allow players to decline XP and start as lvl1 in class of their choice.

Option 2 should not require playing to 28 though for getting the iconic PL though. Requiring an extra 3.8million non-epic xp just to chose your level 1 class is a bit punitive.
