[QUOTE="Nyaricus, post: 2647224, member: 35678"] Hey, dont flame the poor guy; he is just asking for advice. Obviously, if Morgoth had a sense of balance in this particualr issue, he wouldn't be posting his question. Now, aside from that, i [b]have[/b] read the books, and they [b]are[/b] amazing (!!!!!). Infact, i recall a few times comparing his writting to Tolkien; and as a contemporary writer, he is quite fantastic. I am a bit crusty on the specifics of his world though. Goodkind (not Goodkin, as you originally posted) gives some very different associations with certain identifing naems in his world. War-Wizards are ones that can utilize wizards fire, a sort of "edritch blast" of greek fire that is MUCH more potent than either (seperate or combined). Sorcerers i beleive are never male (or are associated with them) They are all Sorceresses and are usually Sisters of the Light or Dark (good and evil factions) Divination spells are almost unheard of; Prophets are special spellcasters which are very scary and can have very bad implications for those that heed their words. Dreamwalkers are kinda like psions, but much more potent, they kinda have some Darth Vader-like killing abilities :D:D So i dunno, i personally don't think that Wizards or Sorcerers as are would do justice to Goodkinds works. There are many things to consider when using very specific classes; more-so with spellcasters since a new varient on them seems to spawn with every book series. I am going to have to go for now, its bedtime pretty much; but i have bookmarked your thread adn will respond back in more detail to it ASAP. Sorry for not responding to your original question purely, but IMHO, you need to flesh out a bit more of what you intecd to do with all of this, then build the class. [/QUOTE]
