Sebastian's last initial spell [roll0] another duplication!

According to the 1EPH, Illusionists begin play with 3 spells in their spellbooks. Since you have evidently allowed me to choose one, Phantasmal Force, which choice is also provided for in the rules, I shall roll 1d12 to randomly select the remaining two spells: [roll0] [roll1] 11 is a repeat...

Please allow me to change my proposal to a Human Ranger.

Uhhh, what I meant was that your honesty is so far above reproach that no check of your veracity is needed. Yeah, that's the ticket!

Duh, ok. I guess I'm so used to DMs accepting all applications that I just assumed we were all in.

Since we already have a wood elf druid now (ahem!) I guess I'll have to pick something else. Do we have a high/wood elf wizard yet?

But you said this just a couple of posts ago, which is at odds with an understanding of the proper length of a 1E Segment:

Won't putting all dice in spoiler blocks serve the same purpose?

THAT'S a waste of time! ;)

A segment is 6 seconds long in 1E rules, or 1 tenth of a 1 minute melee round. segment=6 seconds round=1 minute turn=10 minutes

Agreed, but in a surprise situation, you have to go segment by segment until you get to the initiative roll. Usually, that's only one or two segments, and you've only got one side acting.

Dice being placed in spoiler blocks makes much more sense to me. That way, the dice to support the IC actions are right there, but in an unobtrusive way. Having to switch back and forth from one thread to the other is IMHO unreasonably complicated, and a worse offense than that which it is...

EB, I have played 1E on PBP a bit, but not that much, really. I don't know of anything specific that has been known to cause problems. My eyes are probably at least as old as yours if not older. 1E combat is not inscrutable, you just have to think it through. I DMed 1E for years, when that...

Interested in playing an Elf, either a Wizard or a Druid. Having trouble deciding between Wizard and Druid. Both seem potentially ideal. Still, I'm leaning towards Druid I think. Maybe. Therefore, potentially a Wood Elf. Also maybe.

I'm VERY interested, EB!! I definitely want to play.

MetaVoid, why do you have a problem with anyone using the built-in die-roller here at ENWorld?

EB, you can certainly run your game any way that you see fit, but I just can't resist pointing out some 3.5 practices that appear to have crept into your 1E game: In 1E, Dex did not modify initiative. Initiative was a straight, unmodified d6 roll for each side. Tied initiative was obviously...

Sebastian Tenpennies, Gnome Illusionist 1 /Assassin 1 Sebastian is not comfortable expressing an opinion about the group's next course of action at this point, so he figures he'll go along to get along. He is ready to move out with the party, and does his best to stake out a position right...

Another question: Sebastian doesn't have a list of first level spells that he knows, but presumably phantasmal force is among them. Can I determine the rest of his spells according to 1EPH rules? Incidentally, I looked at those rules last night, and it says you can either roll or just select...

Speaking of back-up characters, Sebastian would like to have a human illusionist henchman, who regardless of whether he may have superior abilities to Sebastian or not, has been conditioned to believe that Gnomes are better illusionists. I'm thinking that his abilities will favor the physical...
