Not just your opinion. There are a lot of us that feel that way.

Anyway, Leif...the reason I mention that particular character, is she is basically a call girl on the show, but they go by the term "Companion."

I rather think that companion is a great name for a prostitute. Very positive.

Yes.
Companion for the evening.

Companion for the hour.

Companion for the act.

Actually what I was referring to was the likelihood of finding a protitute that looks like she does standing on the corner.

Oh no, she was a high class companion. She had much of the skills and training that many nobles would. She was even trained in sword fighting I believe. She was not a common lady of the night.

The Clerical spell Spiritual Weapon says to add Wisdom to attack rolls but an Archivist uses Intelligence instead of Wisdom. Can I add my Intelligence instead of Wisdom?

Well? Have the almighty DMs made a final judgement for the humble Tau?

Indeed we have, Humble Tau. The ruling is that the spell is still affected by the caster's wisdom score. Our reasoning is that, while it is the archivist's intelligence that allows him to cast the divine spell, the very nature of the divine spell is tied to the caster's wisdom. While the archivist's intelligence affects his ability to learn and cast the spell, it cannot change the fundamental nature of the spell. It may be possible that you could get an arcanist to research a different spell that would operate as you desire, but spiritual weapon as Tau has learned it does not function in this manner.

In view of Scotley's current connection issues, I shall get my hindparts in gear and move the battle forward this evening, hopefully. Scotley is invited to beat me to the post if he is so inclined.

Sounds like fun.

I on the other hand should be around all weekend, except for when I am out at the bars drinking way too much and flirting with girls that are far too young for me.

Nope, there are definitely more than just one of us.

I was going to say something about the level of "competition" between us dirty old men. Then I remembered that 99% of our 'Little Hottie Targets' don't want to have anything to do with us anyway, so I figured, "Why even bother?"

Helfdan or Fenris post anything about being out of touch while I was without a connection?
