OK, Renau1g/Theroc, some thoughts re: our background

I'm thinking that while on a mission for Thay, my character Whin ran across the strange drow and the two of them ended up working together to fight off a drow scouting party. They travelled together for a time, Whin Realizing as Nilah had years before that there was more to life than evil ways of his people.

Whin continued doing missions for the Thayans (Because he did not want to anger them before he had an escape plan), but rather than just murdering those of his 'targets' that were good people, he and Nilah found ways to convince the more innocent of his 'victims' that they needed to flee before the Thayans sent someone else, even going so far as to help hide some of them. During one of these forays, the two encountered a red knight who had come to protect the town from the 'Impending Thayan Assault'..
 

Hey Leif, I managed to afford an intelligent item after all!

Whadaya think?

"Razor" Intelligent +2 Vicious Adamantine Greatsword(25,510 GP, 960 XP)
Cost/Crafting breakdown:
Adamantine Greatsword: Take 10 on craft check = DC 20. Cost: 1010 gp
+2 Vicious: 18,000 GP Base = 9,000 GP Materials + 720 XP
Sentience: 15,500
Int 14; Wis14; Cha10; Speech (Common, Draconic, Undercommon), 120' Vision/Hearing
2 Lesser Powers: Knowledge: Religion(+12/10); Cure Moderate Wounds[2d8+3] 3/day
*The +2 Vicious Adamantine Greatsword is self crafted(Both physically and magically), But the Sentience emerged on its own. To represent this, I paid the crafting cost for the sword itself, then paid full GP cost for the intelligent part... I hope that's OK.*
 

Hey Verexx, I think you used the standard formula for your XP amounts instead of the Artificer amount...you may want to look at that, as right now it looks like you've spent well over the amount of XPs we had to spend on crafting.
 

Doing some quick comparisons on spell costs while I'm working on my PC...the standard cost per RAW, and the Leif "Scroll Only" cost...and I think I'd rather go with the RAW rules if that is okay. Your way saves some cash on the lower level spells, but gets way more expensive as spell level goes up. As noted below:

Spell level - RAW / Leif

1st level - 150 / 25
2nd level - 300 / 150
3rd level - 450 / 375
4th level - 600 / 700
5th level - 750 / 1125
6th level - 900 / 1650

So Leif, is it okay if I use the RAW rules for spell cost?

Ummm, sure! btw, what in the world is RAW? Feel free to use the scroll method for the lower level spells (1-3) and the RAW method (whatever that is) for the higher level ones (4-6), if it will save you some gold, everybody.
