I should really do it in a spreadsheet, all those numbers are making me batty. Anyway I've been dropping stuff and adding stuff to the character. What I'd like to do is go for a generalist wizard instead of a specialist, and use the Domain Wizard variant from Unearthed Arcana. The Storm Domain fits really well with the character concept, an out-doorsy, rangerish arcanist.  Also I have him joining the wizard's college in Silverymoon if that's ok (Silver Marches p 62.)Here's the background for Faelar, my Sun Elf. He's a Sun Elf through and through.Faelar was born and raised in the Sun Elf Fortress Home of Evereska, the last major settlement of sun elves left on Faerun. In the first few score years of his life, he saw few non-elves. He felt grateful to be under the care and protection of the Hill Elders, which allowed the citizens of Evereska to explore deep within the elven mysteries. As a young man, Faelar spent much of his time outside the city, communing with nature. In the daytime he would explore the great valley of the Fortress Home, harnessing the mythal's power to climb the twelve high hills and gaze out upon the world. To the east, stretching as far as the eye could see, was the Great Desert of Anauroch, home of the dread archwizards of Shade. To the south lay the Western Heartlands, where the scattered human city-states struggled to survive. To the west was the vast wilderness of the High Moors, filled with dangerous creatures. And to the northwest there were the Graypeak Mountains and The High Forest. Beyond that lay Silverymoon, where lay the only other enclave of Sun Elves left on the continent. At night he would study the stars, wondering what the future held for him. As he began to study wizardry, Faelar focused on reading the portents left by Corellon Larethian. Even after spending long days studying, he would continue to spend his nights communing with nature, and eventually gained the ability to read portents almost as well as the priests of Evereska.Wishing to learn more of his elven heritage, he travelled to Evermeet and Silverymoon, exploring the breadth and range of the dying Elven culture. Curiosity led him east to the Yuirwood, where the Star Elves had retreated to the demiplane of Sildeyuir, long before the Moon and Sun Elves had retreated to Evermeet. The Star Elf foresters welcomed Faelar into their ranks, and taught him the secrets of the Yuir.</blockquote>
