Whirtlestaff's Wizards' Acad. Revisited, OOC02

[renau1g]

Hmm, I'm having the opposite problem in that game with Bevin my Dwarf Enchanter: to MANY enchantment spells and too many undead foes who scoff at Enchantments. Bevin was always jealous of Rajah, and wished he could be as effective. But Raj is gone now and replaced by a cleric, so I guess Bevin has the last laugh? (As weak and questioning as it may be....)

Which is why I recommended to avoid Enchanter as our PC's were made for the Age of Worms (heavy undead) campaign.

Rajah was not very effective (all those 1's)

Wise, wise.

At least he got to roll all the dice that came up one! Bev doesn't even get to roll!

Your call to make, man. Personally, I don't know if I could get along without Evocation. Ever.

(I'm addicted to magic missile)

I'm thinking of a radical re-design of Xavier, let me know if it flies with you Leif.

I'm feeling like illusion is more of what he'd be about, the fey heritage being more mischeivous...I'd become an illusionist, taking Necromancy & Transmutation as my barred schools. Probably want to change my 3rd level feat from Unsettling Enchantment with Dazzling Illusion.

Thoughts?

Presumption: Xav's 1st level feat will be Spell Focus (Illusion)? I think that might be best to do for the plus to Save DCs before Dazzling them with Dexterity (as opposed to Baffling them with, well, you know...). But it's your call -- I already said you could re-build him since his character sheet has been passed from person to person so much that it's hard to read.

And, while we're at it, this would be a good time for anyone else to do a re-build if desired, and, like I said at the very beginning, now that you have earned enough xp for 5th CL, you are not required to take this level in the Wizard class..... Well, re-builds are ok for ANYONE EXCEPT LOUIS! For Francheska, it wouldn't be a RE-build, since she hasn't even been played yet, but modify her all you want, Lou. I'll have to call an end to modifications after a little while, so that we can do some concrete planning and stuff, and see where we are, where we're going, and what we want to do next. Any ideas? Was the next task to go back and talk to the innkeeper in Pembrose (Boris, I think?) about his mysterious door? Or there's plenty more trouble for you to jump off into neck-deep if you just look a leetle bit!

I understand that Reveille has regained some awareness now! yay! Don't know any details yet...

Do any of you guys play the World of Warcraft RPG? I just got it (I think yesterday??) and I've only looked at it a little. It was published under the OGL in like 2007, and it tracks the language of the PH almost verbatim in a number of very important places, but it also has some quite unusual twists with races and the way the classes are handled/set-up/arranged. For example, one class is called Arcanist. But there are three sub-classes of Arcanist that each have their own unique approach to the practical handling of magic. (I think they're called Mage .... and two others. *shrug*) And there are no clerics at all, per se, but clerical magic is handled in other ways as well. Spells for all classes are QUITE limited (in the basic book at least), and many of them are DnD spells that aren't even renamed. But, also, there are a few little jewels on the spell lists that haven't even entered the wildest dreams of the DnD PH Design Team. One thing that I almost couldnt find, and had to mount an extensive page-turning expedition to put my finger on is the rules about Magic Items, Magic Weapons in particular. I'm still not convinced that I can find rules for any other types of items.

yeah, I saw he has been gabbing continuously about 4 frcs dieties or something like that.

 

[KerlanRayne]

Nope, Rev is fully awake and has posted in the thread about him. He'll be under observation for a few days and then released.

 

[Leif]

That is most excellent news, Kerlan! Thanks for the update. Do they know yet what was going on with him that caused the coma?

Francheska is fine the way she is. I need to get her spells and equipment.
