[QUOTE="Quemar, post: 2145748, member: 17381"] Ok, first a little background: I'm a 9th level character (1 level fighter, 8 levels of wizard) high elf. I'm about to hit my next level. At 9th level wizard I gain 5th level spells. I also have a small air elemental as my familiar (improved familiar feat). I'm also planing on taking the Permanency spell. So... I was thinking of casting Reduce Person on my self, and making it permanent. This will make me 5.5 inches tall and way ~20 pounds. My familiar is 4 feet tall, weights 1 pound, and has a str of 10 (0-33 pounds for light load). Here is my questions: 1) Can I ride my familiar (with riding ranks)? 2) If I can, do I need riding gear? or does an air elemental "shape" it's self in what ever it likes. 3) Is there anything that I'm not thinking about when riding an air elemental? also: 1) Reduce person says: "All equipment worn or carried by a creature is similarly reduced by the spell." It doesn't say "at the time of casting." Does this mean that if people hand me "full grown" items, they are reduced? 2) If the Reduce Person is permanent, is there a way to suppress it for a short time? 3) If not, can I use Alter Self to appear as myself? 4) Is there any other down sides to Reduce Person being permanent? I think this is a great way to add a little "character" to my character. I mean, how many times have you seen a 5.5" tall elf, riding an air elemental? Thanks! [/QUOTE]
