Anything But Normal, Sailing the Endless Falls

[Shayuri]

I don't have my books here with me, so I can't get specific yet.

For now I'm more interested in the mechanic. Replacing warmage spells with thematically appropriate spells from books other than core/complete arcane.

Good examples of spells that I'd probably want to lose: Phantasmal Killer, Mass Fire Shield, Weird.

The phantasm spells seem out of place in the warmage arsenal to me (to Treb's especially), and Mass Fire Shield is an odd party buff in a spell list dedicated to blastin'. Singular Fire Shield is okay though, since it's one of the only personal defenses a warmage has.

On the one hand, the opportunity to use spells from more recent sources would be nice. On the other, if you feel it'd threaten to make the warmage too versatile or unbalanced then I'd understand.

I'm still about, though my posting rate is a little low for another few weeks till my course is over. Retaking Vaukriel would be great!

Even with just us four, we don't really have any gaps that the initial group didn't already have with all of the original six (healing was sparse even with our ooze and our flying ape spellthief), so the good news is that we may not have to rerecruit, plus, I've found that games with fewer players tend to go much faster.

Without looking at the RG (that's cheating ), I think from memory that this leaves us with two non-LA characters, Warforged Warmage and Illumian Duskblade, and then two heavy-LA characters, Blink Dog (with some Hexblade) and Nereid (with a little bit of Beguiler)

Just popping my head up to say that if you're recruiting new people or alternates I'm interested

 

[Erekose13]

Hmm tempting to retool the Angel of Splendor... You don't have the Book of Experimental Might yet do you Isida?

Yeah, that's right. Well, having Bront's guy around for healing was a nice place to be, but I'm always up for a clericless party!

Though I kinda hope we get in a fight soon, once we restart. I never even got a chance to flex my curses in combat, before.

 

[Rystil Arden]

I just noticed in the IC thread that we actually did get Bront's Darfellan Cleric in the group, so if he's good to come back, that would be five (and healing).

 

[Kelleris]

Oh I know - but his SN hasn't shown for the last week or so. So I don't know if he's available or not.

 

[Isida Kep'Tukari]

Nac Mac Feegle - Just for giggles and grins, what would you have in mind for an alternate character?

All - I've put out a call for Voidrazor and D20Dazza to see if we can get the rest of the old crew back together. If not, then we'll just go on with who we have.

Erekose13 - I'm afraid I don't have the Experimenal Might book.

Hey Isida. If you're still considering alternates I'd love to play. I still have my original idea of the ninja diviner (although I've tweaked her quite a bit) and I was thinking a weresquid half-water elemental.
