That gives the rest of you guys some time to pick your gear. Check the equipment list at the d20.org site.
>> http://www.d20srd.org/indexes/equipment.htm <<
Our rouge might wanna buy some:

Thieves’ Tools

This kit contains the tools you need to use the Disable Device and Open Lock skills. Without these tools, you must improvise tools, and you take a -2 circumstance penalty on Disable Device and Open Locks checks.

What kind of items is it important to have? besides the theives tools, I imagine I should get a bedroll, pus one of you should probably get a rope for climbing (since I'm a small character, I can't carry as long a rope).

I usually offer players my Adventure's Starter Kit, which contains the basics:

Backpack
Bedroll
Flint/Steel
Small Mirror
Rope (hemp, 10ft)
Trail Rations (3)
Waterskin
Travellers Outfit

It comes out to 29.5 lbs. or 15.25 lbs. for the small guys and I give it to players for about 14 gold.

Welll, you can buy anything you want, but if the item has a Feat requirement that you don't have, you won't be able to use it.

Anyone who has at least one point in either the Disable Device or Open Locks skills can use theives tools.

Only an arcane spellcaster (Wizzard, Sorcerer) can understand what's written in a spellbook, but Sorcerers don't need a spellbook since they don't need to memorise their spells. Clerics and Druids don't need spellbooks either since they get their Divine Spells from praying and resting.

I wouldn't get a horse untill we know we need one.Besides, you need at least one point in the Ride skill or you won't be able to controll your mount)

Krazed Squirell's kit looks like a good place to start.

Very important. Cagey, evil, DM's always mess with players that don't have any points in Ride.

It kinda depends on your character. My guy is a Fighter, so he's the type to kit himself out like a soilder. He's prepared to be in the feild for long stretches at a time; hence the tent and the bedroll. He's not a ranger, though: He's more of an urban fighter than a wilderness guy. The rope and the torches are just your usual adventuering gear; it's very practical stuff to have with you. As for the Whetstone: I use it to keep my blade sharp. By the way, a Whetstone is called that becasue it is oiled for lubrication. It's not sutible for taking nicks or divits out of a blade, just for sharpening the edge. It's about 5" long by 2" wide, and it's carried in a 5½ " x 2½" wooden box.

Is there anything you can recommend for a monk?
It would be helpful.
Since they have no weapons, they fight fist combat. meaning they should be strong.
Meh,I don't know much about monks just that stuff.

Monks are pretty low-maintenance. You probably still need the basics but not much else. If anyone else can elaborate, I'm not too good with the monk class.

Also, to any clerics, make sure you get a holy symbol. Some spells can't be cast without one.

Monks can use weapons, actualy. It's just that most of the special powers they have are dependent on them fighting unarmed. Therefore, it doesn't make much sense for a monk to fight with a mele weapon.
However, Monks do get proficency with Shuriken (throwing stars) by default. Buy yourself a bunch of Shurikens (you get 5 for 1Gp). I'd get 15.

For clothing, you've got that Monk's Outfit. I'll quote D20.org:
Code:
[b]Monk’s Outfit[/b]

This simple outfit includes sandals, loose breeches, and a loose shirt, and is all bound together with sashes. The outfit is designed to give you maximum mobility, and it’s made of high-quality fabric. [b]You can hide small weapons in pockets hidden in the folds, and the sashes are strong enough to serve as short ropes.[/b]


Note that last part. guess what those pockets hidden in the folds are for. That's right, throwing stars.

EDIT: Oh, I forgot about the Sai:
Sai

With a sai, you get a +4 bonus on opposed attack rolls made to disarm an enemy (including the roll to avoid being disarmed if such an attempt fails).

Author:  Krazed Squirell [ Mon Feb 13, 2006 11:28 pm ]
Post subject: 

Dang, I forgot about the monks outfit. Also, there are several weapons designed with monks in mind. They typically have a more oriental flair like the sai and kama (small scythe-lookin' thing). The staff is also a classic monk standby.

I'd spring for at least one Potion of Cure Light Wounds, in a low-level campaign despite the high price. Divine Spellcasters (Clerics, Druids, etc.) have only so many spell slots for healing (Remember: Clerics can spontaneously cast healing spells of the appropriate level at any time.) and you lose a lot of HP in early battles.

Misc. Gear: 1 Short Sword Scabbard, 1 potion of CLW, 1 traveler's outfit, 1 backpack, 1 bedroll, 3 trail rations, set of Theives' Tools, 1 bullseye lantern, 3 pint flasks of oil, 1 signal whistle, 1 flint and steel


I took the lantern because I had the gold, and I figured it would be better than a torch, and I also though the whistle could be useful if we got seperated.

You forgot to buy arrows. A short bow isn't much use without something to shoot from it. However, you get a free bonus with your purchace of any kind of arrow: A free quiver. According to D20.org....

Arrows
An arrow used as a melee weapon is treated as a light improvised weapon (-4 penalty on attack rolls) and deals damage as a dagger of its size (critical multiplier ×2). Arrows come in a leather quiver that holds 20 arrows. An arrow that hits its target is destroyed; one that misses has a 50% chance of being destroyed or lost.

My fault really, I should have put that down when I gave your guy a bow.

Looking back at the thread, it seems the only spell caster in the party is Hi Guys, whose a wizard. I'd say y'all definitely need a healer in your party but ,since COLA has apparently locked sign-ups, that may not happen. If that’s the case, buy more healing potions.

A party without a cleric is like a guy thats not going ,uh...not going to live...long.

No. I took care of that. I bought 20 arrows, I put them under weapons, not misc. gear.
