[QUOTE="ozzie831, post: 7514840, member: 6974775"] [MENTION=19675]Dannyalcatraz[/MENTION] Im pretty sure "technically" we can use any 3.5 material including dragon magazines. The only thing that I can think of that we cant use is templates, mostly because our DM doesnt really know what they are. Most of the problem is that Im new-ish. Not "new-new" but new enough to not understand magic spells per day or what level spells I get at what class level or how wisdom adds more spells per day. Or like how power points work from a psychic warrior. Even just typing it hurts my brain. There is just WAAAY too much :):):):) to learn.
