[QUOTE="BoldItalic, post: 7357673, member: 6777052"] So, what do I name you that's not...Woody?..... [COLOR=#EE82EE]How about Silvester? Ever since Harry Potter, spells have been in Latin and 'Silvester' is Latin for 'woody'. My command phrase could be [I]Lignum Stamine[/I], said with suitable cinematics, of course. V&S components and all that jazz. By the way, you are a Druid, I suppose? Don't wish to be rude, but one can't be too careful. I only operate for druids, you see. It's a nature thing.[/COLOR] Satisfied, Sam announced "This wand is called Silvester and it does [I]Warp Wood[/I] in the hands of a druid." [COLOR=#008000]"I could do Druid next session, if you like," offered Jeli's player, "But is Warp Wood a 5e spell at all?" "It's a homebrew," said Herewulf's player knowingly. "Up to the DM if he wants to allow it." "Well, the DM out the wand under the blanket, so presumably he's okay with it," pointed out Od's player. "True. Let's assume it's legit, then."[/COLOR] "This is a valuable find," said Od, "I shall compose a song about it. Let's see now, what rhymes with 'Silvester'?" "Lot of Roman towns," offered Nord, "Colchester, Cirencester, Rocester, ..." "It's pronounced 'roaster'," objected Sam. "I had an auntie who lived there." (This was an absolute lie. There have never been any halflings living in Rocester. There was a stout family in Uttoxeter, though, in the 3rd century AD. They kept racing pigs.) "Well," said Herwulf trying to sound managerial, "We have agreed objectives to work steadily towards, have we not?" "You mean finding the biggest diamond in the world?" suggested Jeli, "I think we should sail further north. An alchemist once told me that diamonds are made of ice and there's a lot of ice up there, towards the north pole." "As long as we don't meet ice trolls and ice demons." "We probably will. But we're going anyway." Captain Jeli had spoken. So they bade farewell to the fiskerfolk (via the parrot as interpreter) and a few hours later, back on the Phase Rider, they gathered in the captain's cabin. "I've just remembered something," said Herewulf suddenly, "We haven't used the three bread rolls, the bone comb, or the woollen bowtie ..." [/QUOTE]
