You wake up in a small cramped cell. The floor is solid stone as are the walls. The only visible way out is an entry way currently blocked by a barred portcullis. Peering out of the portcullis shows more rooms similar in design as your own except the prisoners of these rooms are merely bones. Straining to listen to your surroundings you can hear the laughter of goblinoid voices farther down the hall. You don’t know what happened, how you got here or the events of last night. Judging by the migraine wracking your skull it must have been a doozy though. The more party driven individuals of you are hoping it was fun enough to deserve the current circumstances. The goblin voices increase in volume indicating that the guard is coming in this direction.
“The new recruits for the Salt Mines have arrived. Irgrich said it’ll be a day or so before they can be inprocessed.” The way the approaching creature said that word, Inprocessed was such that it was clear the process was gruesome. ‘So for now their our problem. Ah here we are.” A large muscular humanoid with coarse hair covering it’s body and a nose reminiscent of a bear’s is followed by two smaller green humaniods with cruel expressions on their faces. The Bugbear is holding a large tray with five plates on it. He has a wickedly barbed mace on his side. The goblins carry rusty looking shortswords and look eager to use them.
“Step to the back of the cell, vermin.” The bugbear growls pulling keys from his belt and unlocking the cell. As you move to do as he directs he steps into the cell and sets the tray down. “Now don’t do anything rash. There’s a curse on these halls that you wouldn’t want to trigger with bloodshed I assure you.” The bugbear closes the portcullis and relocks it. “Enjoy your meal who knows how many more you have left.” He bellows with laughter as he and his minions make their way back down the hall.

I'm looking for four to five players for a good old fashioned dungeon run, and maybe more if any of you make it out. The rules will be 3.5 and the setting will be Faerun from Forgotten Realms.
I'm allowing any classes from the complete series, the phb, the phb 2, psionics handbook, and Forgotten Realms Handbook.
Any race that doesn't have a level adjustment.
Point buy system using 50 points. Yeah that's alot but you're gonna need them.
starting Level 2
You start in a cell so not much. The rogue may have lockpicks stashed in her hair, but you've been stripped pretty well. Don't worry there'll be resources aplenty to gain in the dungeon.
I'm sure I'm missing some important information somewhere so if you have questions just ask.
I don't have the time to play another game, but there is a version of the Drow race that doesn't involve a level adjustment. It's in the FR Player's Guide to Faerun (3.5 version).
