Controlling? You can't even learn charm person, all you can control are your summoned critters.



Web and grease do a fine job of terrain control, too bad half the wall spells are evocations.

The eternal identifyer is a neat item, I've come to hate the necessity of the identify spell more and more. So I take it an eternal wand in general does something 1x/day.

With nothing to actively fight at the moment (and thus nothing to spur Aeron on to the necessity of temporary bravery), I figure fear would set in.

By controlling I meant in the 4e terms of controlling, sorry, causing status effects and terrain modification, with a healthy dose of summon spells.

Edit: Eternal Wand - 2/day - Cast Identify as a 1st level wizard

Except that it is a wasted item, since I pretty much allow for free identification of items in my games.

Indeed. I find that it takes too much time in PBP games to work through trying to figure out what is what, so I usually just tell you!

Maybe I am only two faced when it comes to being an RPG player. Feel free to judge for yourself. My characters on ENWorld. Feedback would be interesting.

Just to confirm, yeah, I see Ciaran as a blaster. I'm planning to go the Elemental Adept (Air) route, combining the Storm package. Yes, it pigeonholes him, but hey, a character's a character.
