I'm a true blue meat point believer so that means yes, a high enough levelled Wizard can get stabbed no problemo.

I mean that feels like complaining that an Ice Cream is cold.

For A and C I think being stuck in a dessert would affect your ability to cast still.

Okay so what are the prayers I can use to decrease spell slots? What are the deeds that would decrease/increase my spell slots as a wizard/druid/bard? what alignment of moon and stars effect my spell slots? I'm a huge fan of bizarre medieval mysticism so there's loads of inspiration here...

I view karma 1 is practically a meta mechanic if there's no to minimal ways to interact with it in an in-world way; Are karma stealers common? can an ability drain it from another? What kind of reasoning would a'normal' player accept for losing/gaining karma? But I do agree 'who' spends is an...

@Remathilis posted this, and since @AlViking rejected it and considered this not compromise then it really is uncompromisable.

No it's the 1% that's important to them.

I'm just glad that the game and culture is moving towards the stuff I like more than the stuff you like that's all.
