[QUOTE="TrizzlWizzl, post: 365820, member: 3510"] Man... I would totally not be cool with that at all. There's absolutely nothing reasonable about a wererat just up and deciding to thrash their own gear. Wererats don't just go totally mindless and destructive when they change shape. You keep all your base scores and most were-types increase ability scores. If you're a wizard with a Int of 17 you still have a 17 Int as a hybrid wererat. A creature with an Int 17 would no more thrash his gear than stab himself in the head... in fact, with the kind of low magic setting you describe, why didn't the DM just save you the trouble? I would beef with your DM [i]soon[/i]. He needs to find a way to restore your gear and quick. If he's recalcitrant and tells you "tough luck" just leave. Playing in a game with a DM like that is a nightmare. In a low magic setting you've got to pay attention to balancing the magic-using classes with the others. Taking away a wizard's spellbook in this setting is not balancing or fun. [/QUOTE]
