Mage of the Silver Flame

Here's my idea for a New Feat:

Mage of the Silver Flame
(prerequisites: Intelligence 15 & Wizard level 1+, Charisma 15 & Sorcerer level 1+, or Charisma 15 and Bard level 1+)
(May be taken as a Wizard Bonus Feat)


You have been initiated into the mysteries of the Silver Flame, and learned the secrets of harnessing this reservoir of arcane power. You gain a +2 competency bonus to the DC for saves against your [Fire] spells and spell-like abilities. (This bonus stacks with bonuses from other feats.) Additionally, you can use Burning Hands as a spell-like ability once per day, plus one additional time per day for every 2 caster levels above first. Special: All flame that is produced by your spells/SLAs is a brilliant silver in color.

Any/all comments are still invited and requested. It was way too powerful when originally written, but it has been brought under control, thanks to some great suggestions from amethal.

Insights into the Mind of the Wizard....

I'm curious about how each of you players sees his character, and how you see their development progressing. So far, Kerlan has expressed some interest in the crafting of magic items, but I have, perhaps, inadvertently squelched that somewhat. That was not my intention, but I don't really think that selling your crafted items to your own party members should be your primary focus. I mean, you know for a fact that they each have exactly as much money as you have. A much better strategy would be to combine your efforts and sell the resulting items, say potions of comprehend languages, as a totally random example, to the townsfolk of Pembrose. But I digress.... If you wish, please respond to this post and let me know what your character's dream spellbook would contain at, say 9th level, or, better yet, just tell me some of the spells that your character is dying to get his/her hands on. Or just tell me anything that he/she desires, and, if he/she has any specific uses in mind for any of it.

I already get that Francheska the Fire Elf probably REALLY likes fire spells. Hey, here's a question for you: Will Tylara and Francheska necessarily ALWAYS go to the bathroom at the same time? And does Francheska ever have a date that is NOT a HOT date? And does she smoke afterwards? Literally?

We welcome heartily Francheska (Lou), distant cousin of Xavier.

So now we have:

1 Kerlan Rayne, human wiz

2 Delunamanth "Tylara" Tylarapelotheenia, elf druid/wiz

3 Manunukso "Manny" Maliit, brownie sorcerer/wiz

4 Capizzio Del Collines, human rogue/wiz

5 Xavier Zalev, human wiz (with fey heritage) (Granddad liked pointy-ears)

6 Francheska Walova, fire elf wiz


That's everybody, and I'm just as proud as I can be of ALL of you!

I mistakenly had the comments disallowed on the previous blog posts, so all who were just itching to comment, please post comments on previous posts to this post. Thanks.

Next up for the Whirtlestaff's Wizards?

Ok, the end of the adventure is in sight, sorta. Admittedly, 'closing' this door 'opens' five or six more, but, still, it's a good place to start a different activity if you want. I feel a little bit bad because I rooked most of you guys into this game with the promise that it would be a Wizard's Academy, but you have yet to spend even one measly day at the actual academy.

And truly, I've been so anticipating finishing up this hobgoblin dungeon, that I forgot that it is only a SMALL part of this whole adventure. There's LOTS more stuff to do and mischief for you to get neck deep (to a tall giraffe) in!

TO COMMENT, click on the title of the blog entry on which you wish to comment, and you will be taken to a screen that has just that blog post, plus room for comments.

Anyway, I'm interested to hear what you guys all think about this, or anything else. Please post comments frequently and immediately!
