Saterus: [sblock] If you want to free up some more points you can just have 1 or 2 ranks in the profession slot vice placing all four in them. This can give you at least 1 rank in another cc skill, or 2 ranks in a class skill. I know you are feeling a little out of sorts with the char coming out of the gate, but I think you will be fine once things get going.
As for feats, if you only want to use the Complete Arcane and see Samuel as a more finesse mage than a walking arcane tank, might I suggest Battlecaster? As he is learning the ropes his own way, the feat would show that he learned how to cast spells while wearing the light leathers he wore when travelling with his father before the bottom fell out of things. Plus it will give him the ability to stay around longer when subtly fails and the fecal matter hits the osculating cooling device.
Another option for roleplay purposes would be Draconic Heritage, your pick on the color, and how you handled it throughout your life. I know that aspect might make you have to retweak the history a little, or perhaps it is just something that Allustan has recently informed you of after your first "talk" with him.
Just a few suggestions from the hip, but nothing you have to take as gospel.[/sblock]
Ozmar:[sblock]When you say garrison, do you mean town Constable work or working with the garrison outside of town proper? Either is fine, but just wanted to know which one you meant for my personal notes/future hooks.[/sblock]
[Elocin]:[sblock]When making your skills/background, don't forget to include the profession/craft/preform skill he has, or tell me how he has been earning his keep without a trade to get him a job. Otherwise, everything looks good so far.[/sblock]
Unleashed:[sblock]Char looks good so far, but wanted to ask if your char would have any training with the Bronze Lodge, a hunting guild that has a small "gathering house" in the woods to the southwest. I am still reading about them, but for the most part they are a small group of rangers and druids that patrol the woods and supply the town with meat and various other "wild" supplies.[/sblock]

). An association with the Brozewood Lodge (yeah, I have the overload too, but haven't read that either) may be something for the future once he begins to explore a life outside his apprenticeship, but he may well have heard of them from Venelle. Hope that helps.[/SBLOCK]
