[QUOTE="James Heard, post: 2370587, member: 7280"] There weren't any rules for expending XP for item creation listed, so I took the explicit "You have 435,002 XP and are Lvl 30" thing at its word. Even mentioning item creation at all, abeit later on,when there's only 2 extra xp to spend on it sort of suggests that there's something else going on. Really, if you can create items and you only have 2 xp to spend on them then its a sort of bs create items element, and no one should bother at all. If that were the case then it should have been said, which it wasn't. :D The djinn is from the ring, which can only call her for an hour a day. There's no wishes involved, even though I wrote her up with the extra 3HD of a noble djinn, because there's no wishes involved - I'd have priced it as a ring of 3 wishes with a djinn slapped onto it otherwise I guess. Considering the power level we're at I didn't think it would really be a problem (though I considered adding 1.5 to the price for those HD), because she'd be more or less a one hit and poof speedbump in combat with anyone that's fighting in melee in anything other than pointy hats.

There's no familiar yet (Yes, I forgot completely) and most of the items were cobbled togther from other items - hence the strange DR I didn't catch from the ELH [i]Ring of Ironskin[/i], which happens a lot for me when I'm tossing through 3.0 to 3.5 sources and bitching loudly about it all night.;) [/QUOTE]
