AMG, I have a question, looking at how ridiculously expensive it is to scribe spells into my spellbook can we change the cost to 50gp per page instead of 100gp per page. I have to initially pay to get the spell somehow anyway (scroll or another wizard which ranges from 12.5gp for a 0 level spell to 150gp for a 2nd level spell). Otherwise I'm paying 350gp for a 2nd level spell, just to get it into my spellbook. Which is as much as buying a masterwork greatsword. Help my poor illusionist not be starving broke.

Hedwan, Gnome Illusionist
Appearance: Hedwan's appearance is constantly changing, although it seems always the case that the gnome's face is obscured or quite androgynous. Even the gnome's voice is assertive yet untainted by a specific colloquial gender pattern. Those who know Hedwan agree that whatever the case, the little gnome prefers this anonymity. Those have traveled with Hedwan recognize the arcane talents wielded, but Hedwan disdains of and silences talk of the gnome being a wizard of sorts.
Background: Much of Hedwan's past is unknown, specifically those who travel with the gnome now. Hedwan maintains this, either to reveal the past, or remove it from thought. The gnome joined the adventuring party without warning, they woke up on the road and Hedwan was there, stirring a fire.

Just so you know, Jerrick will take poorly to it if he sees you 'sploding anyone's eyeballs with foule magicks.
Of course, my semantically inclined mind makes me wonder if that statement applies if you 'splode his eyeballs.

Don't worry about it, you'll never see it ;-)
