[QUOTE="Greenfield, post: 6074523, member: 6669384"] I was saying that I wasn't going to do more than complain a bit in the post. Normally I'd sit down and ask for some justification/rationalization, but in this case I don't think the character's going to be there to worry about. He mentioned that his character was wearing armor under his silks. As a Cleric that's all fine and dandy. As a Sorcerer that can be problematic. Arcane Spell failure and all of that fun. I suspect that he has something exotic to minimize that, such as Fey Leaf or perhaps Mythrll. Which runs afoul of his Vow of Poverty (no magic, no master worked). So his AC is probably going to drop by 4 or more, he's going to lose his extremely specialized weapon (Dark Metal can only be safely handled by undead types), he's probably going to lose his Familiar (Ghostly Visage is available to Dread Necromancer, not True Necromancer), and he's going to lose either his Cleric abilities or his Exalted feats, possibly both. At that point we won't need to ban the character. I expect that he'll withdraw it. As for other ACs: We're in the mid 20s for the most part, prior to buffs. [/QUOTE]
