Redclaw's Eyes of the Lich Queen OOC

[EvolutionKB]

Two charges are fine with me.

On another note, we have 2 scrolls of CMW from Cholas(for an emergency. My little speech before was for everybody to pick out want they could use/want)

Of course, Hedowin will also heal non-lethal damage at a rate of 5 hp/hour now that he has been freed and fed.

[sblock=Redclaw] All ready to go, save for 2 questions- 1. What kind of HP/Spells available condition is Chevri in?, and 2. Is ther any chance she is still wearing her Ring of Sustenance, since otherwise it will need to be worn for a week to become active again?[/sblock]

After doing a quick scan of the IC thread, it seems our hp situation is not as bad as I initially thought it might be. Bregan looks uninjured, Drekhad is only down a hp or 2, as is Alexa. I am down 10 and Hedowin is has 21 nonlethal. Hedo might be okay with two charges from the wand, but I am not sure if we want to risk that. If we decide to wait an hour for him to prepare spells that would bring him to about 3/4 hp. That would also give us time to take care of Cholas' body.

[sblock=pathfinder] She will be effectively paralyzed due to strength damage, although not significantly damage in terms of hit points (10 points of strength damage, 27/37 hit points). She will not have any of her gear on her, so you'll be without the benefit of the ring of sustenance until she has worn it for a week. Sorry. [/sblock]

[sblock=Redclaw] Drat- I was afraid of that. Hmmm, may I should have bought some food, or a bedroll... How about spells available, at least once she starts recovering STR from the poison? Given that she is basically immobile, and without the benefit of her ring, she'll probably be sleeping now, unless the lizardmen are tormenting her- either way, they have managed to get on the bad side of her sunny disposition...[/sblock]

[sblock=pathfinder] Spells should be available, as she's conscious and therefore likely to at least be able to pray for them, even if she can't currently lift a finger to cast them. [/sblock]

@Redclaw:

If/when Hedowin advances a level, he would gain his first level in Ultimate Magus, which grants him a CL (spell selection) increase on the Sorc side only, along with a Arcane Power increase on CL (for casting purposes) on both sides, so he would be:

Wiz: Choose spells as CL4, cast spells as CL5
Sorc: Choose spells as CL2, cast spells as CL3

I was planning on taking practised spellcaster(sorcerer) to bring his CL up on the sorc side. What would be your interpretation of the final CL for him as a Sorc caster?

I see it as CL2 (base) +4 CL (practised spellcaster - brings him to CL6 which is his hit dice) then +1 for Arcane Power from Ultimate Magus Lvl 1 = CL7 for casting. Agree or disagree?

Sorry, S@squ@tch, but that's not how I read it. I don't have a book with Practiced Spellcaster, but I just got this description from the WOTC website

Practiced Spellcaster (from Complete Divine): When determining caster level for one of your spellcasting classes, you can add a bonus of up to +4. The amount of the bonus depends on the number of nonspellcasting class levels you have; you can add +1 for each nonspellcasting class level up to the limit of +4.

As I read it, the feat won't do Hedowin any good because he doesn't have any nonspellcasting class levels.

If the feat has changed, give me the new source and I'll take a look.

 

[s@squ@tch]

From Complete Divine pg82:

Prereq: Spellcraft 4 ranks
Benefit: Your caster level for the chosen spellcasting class increases by +4. This can't increase your caster level beyond your HD. However, even if you can't benefit from the full bonus immediately, if you later gain noncaster-level HD you may be able to apply the rest of the bonus.

A character with two or more spellcasting classes (such as a bard/sorcerer or a ranger/druid) must choose which class gains the feats effect.

This does not afect your spells per day or spells known. It only incrases your caster level, which would help you penetrate SR and increase the duration and other effects of your spells.
