Alright everybody, I promised a new hint would come out today. For those of you just here for the story, scroll down a wee bit and you'll see the newest entry (a long one, in my opinion). For those of you just now tuning in, we have a contest on here at RogerDS. It goes a little something like this:
The Question: What are the races, classes, and levels of the four main characters of RogerDS? (That's Roger, Grens, Tallow, and Gunther.)
The prize: YOU get to appear as an NPC in a future episode of RogerDS. Yes, you can pick which side you're on if any.
Hint #1 (the one you already have): Everything in the party follows the core 3.5 edition D&D rules, except for a single "house rule".
Hint #2 (the new one!): The above-mentioned house rule has to do with how much wealth/gear the characters have.
I hope this helps those of you who have been struggling with the question. A reading of the last few entries may help as well...
Good luck!

So I see I was on the right track with the lack of magic equipment. I'm going to go under the assumption that everyone is single class, even if I could see Roger having just got something along the lines of Fighter/3 Ranger/2 (2 Weapon Fighting with nature [and tracking] experience... would be reasonable).
Roger Human Fighter/5
Gunther Human Fighter/5
Tallow Halfling Rogue/5
Gren Human Cleric/5
And just my look at the core classes (- prestige)
Barbarian - Nothing that looked like a rage has been seen, at least in my opinion.
Bard - No performances/ Bardic Music
Cleric - Gren can heal(not spontaneously it seems) and create undead.
Druid - Gren seems to be the only caster, and no one has overly nature loving and no animal companion.
Fighter - Roger and Gunther are both Martial types, and though different, fighter feats can and do lead to incredibly different fighters.
Monk - Everyone in the party has weapons or magic. No can do.
Paladin - Gren Jr. couldn't have survived more than a couple rounds if anyone was a Paly.
Ranger - Roger could possibly be if there's multiclassing. If not, then he would only be Ranger/2 due to him just getting a second sword (Combat Style is chosen at level 2) and Gren has to be Level 5 to cast Animate Dead (Unless he has a scroll, but that would require extra risk and 625 GP is an awful lot to risk) But all in all I don't think there's a Ranger in the group.
Rogue - Tallow seems to fit the build pretty well. Smart alack, bow wielding hafling. Screams Rogue.
Sorcerers & Wizards - Gren is only caster and can cast healing spells.
Okay....
*drum roll please*
Your guess is incorrect!
On two counts. I can't say more than that. Sorry, but keep on going!
(I will add that your observations on the core classes are quite astute.)
OK, well I will take a wild guess and assume my assumption of only a single class is wrong (Count 1).
Roger Human Fighter/3 Ranger/2 (Count 2)
Gunther Human Fighter/5
Tallow Halfling Rogue/5
Gren Human Cleric/5
Roger does have ranks in heal... and tracking is related to survival. My guess(Assuming I'm correct) would be he started off as a Ranger, took 3 levels of fighter, and then just recently got his second level of Ranger.
If I'm wrong with this, then apparently I need another hint or to reread the journal analyzing every sentence. I think I'll wait for the next hint.
