What items do you feel that he should be able to have even with a Cha 10? A sword, surely. A shield, too. And a helmet, armor, and either boots or some other trinket. So lets say that a character can, with Cha 10, hold 5 magic items. that covers a Wizard's staff, robe, and evil eye with two left to go. Of course, he can still activate magic items, but this is for the number to be allowed constantly running. Now one stipulation I feel that I should make is the characters' ability to bypass what are currently established as the limits for specific items. If my Wizard has 8 Cha, and feels the need to have 4 rings of elemental command, that is now a very serious sacrifice for him. Of course it won't be as much of a sacrifice for the Sorcerer with a Cha 19, but then again he has had to miss out on skill points the Wizard has, as well as other benefits of being extremely intelligent (all those lost games of chess in Mordenkainen's Magnificent Mansion...). The only exceptions to this are when the character actually cannot wear any more of a particular item. However, I would have no problem with a fighter putting magical padded armor under his magical full-plate. He gets a bonus to AC, yes. Overpowered? I don't think so. Like I said, I have no problem with a character wearing four rings. It balances out in the end, because everyone gets it. The incredibly n00b potent items can (and should) be hidden out of safe reach. Also, it adds a layer of balance to the bard that many believe to be sorely lacking.As to your questions-- I am not majoring in Asian studies, mostly because I am in high school. I do not plan to major in Asian studies, as there is more money to be had in translating.And as to your second... well, I wrote up something long but thought better of posting a critical self-analysis on this site. It might be off-topic. If you want, I can send it to you. The short answer and incomplete answer is "I know way too much."</blockquote>
