[QUOTE="Undrave, post: 8384924, member: 7015698"] They also had restrictions based on favored schools, so a single Wizard couldn't learn EVERYTHING a Wizard could potentially learn. That's the part that bugs me. You can play, say, an Abjurer and a Diviner and they could both have the same spell list! I made a Gnome Blade Feylock once! He had been a slave on a ship in the Feywild but ended up thrown overboard and made a pact with a mysterious fey there. After that he was returned to the ship and took it over and became a pirate with his fellow liberated gnomes. At some point he got sent to the material plane by an errant portal and he's been looking to afford a way back to his crew ever since. DEX was his best stat, and I think he only had a +2 to CHA? We were at level 3 if I recall. I know that his spell list included Sleep, Mirror Image and Shadow Blade (and I forgot the last one... maybe Armor of Agathys?) and that I only had Toll the Dead as damaging cantrip as a backup. His invocations were the Mage Armor one and the Magic Sight ones. It was originally for an investigation style game and I only played him for one game so I don't know how good he would have turned out. At one point, the Paladin got challenged to a duel by a Suahgin and got hit by like 1 critical and two nearly max damage attack and fell in ONE turn. The [B]Barbarian[/B] and was too chicken to engage so my little Gnome, with his Pact Blade cutlass and funny pirate captain outfit, walked bravely into battle, activating his Mirror Image. Managed to keep that big guy busy for rounds after round as he kept failing to hit until the others figured out a plan of action. Pretty cool, if foolish. I think I had a single duplicate left by the time we finished him off. Also, earlier, the DM made the fatal mistake of having a single enemy against us (a monstrous impostor we exposed after some investigating and interrogation) so I simply dropped Sleep on it and ended the fight :p [/QUOTE]
