Ok. No problem.

James, you might want to swap Maximize Spell for Sudden Maximize from Complete Arcane (allows you to apply Maximize to one spell spontaneously without raising the spell level once per day; you cannot use it normally, tho, only that one time each day; prerequisite is any other metamagic feat). That's pretty nifty for a wizard.

Also, you have 45 hit points.

One question, what does the (s) in the spell list stand for? I first thought specialist slot, but he doesn't seem to be a specialist wizard.

In order :
1. I thought about it, but I like having multiple maximized MM and fireballs.
2. Yeah, like I said I cut n pasted from Etools which doesn't do specialized PbP rules very well.
3. He's an evoker with prohibited schools in Enchantment and Illusion. I'm debating on if I should change that, considering the whole "giants" thing though.

Basically I wouldn't have posted him as rough as he is right now at all except everyone else seems to be rolling like a stone down hill toward completion and I won't be able to work on him for several hours tonight and I thought I'd let everyone see something.

For all you non-spontaneous arcane spellcasters out there, remember that you can buy a spell and transcribe it into your spellbooks for the cost of a scroll of that level. I'm also going to rule that in addition to the spells that you gain from research every Wizard level (see p. 178 of the 3.5 PHB), you found two spells every CHARACTER level (of any level you can cast) through adventuring (making killing enemy wizards very popular among this crowd.)

I can see the following conversation happening in the midst of batte:

Figher: Quick, Pointyhat, take out that spellcaster before he kills us all!
Wizard: What? That guy? He's just a sorcerer, not worth my time.

Oh, and don't forget that if you use the magic word, party members might let you copy spells from their spellbooks. If wizards have anything over sorcerers, it's versatility.

Branding, I am looking at the LG Deity list now, and Mayaheine looks basically just like Heironeous, except Demigod instead of Full, what would be the difference as far as choosing her? Would I be more influential? (Big fish small pond scenario?) Or is she more revered in Sterich? (doesnt really say that)

Or leadership and a Cleric cohort. I like the cleric cohort idea.

Potentially worth noting - James has Leadership, but no cohort figured out yet

Your point buy looks off, somehow - a 15 in Str costs 8, and a 17 in Cha costs 13.

Str: 16(18)+4 (7) Class Level 4 +1
Dex: 10 +0 (2)
Con: 14 +2 (6)
Int: 10 +0 (2)
Wis: 12 +1 (4)
Cha: 18(22)+6 (11) Class level 8 +1

Either you are an amazingly fast character creator, or Reivik has been sitting around for a little, waiting to jump back into action. Either way, good job!

He's been sitting around for a week or so at 9th level, but missed out on a game... didn't take much to tweak to 11th

Quick comment on the subject of your heirloom weapon. A concept that I have loved for years, and have been wanting to incorporate into a D&D game is the basic concept of magic weapons from the Earthdawn game. If memory serves, the more you research the history of a weapon, the stronger it becomes.

A similar idea was presented in a Dragon magazine article a few years back (something about "leveled magic items") where you sacrifice XP to improve the power of the weapon.

I'm not saying we should incorporate this, just thinking out loud ... well, typing out loud anyway

I'm certainly up for the idea... after all, who better to research the history of a weapon than a War Chanter?

Mayaheine is classier. She's hip. She's now. She's edgy. Yay!

Heironeous is a stuffy deity for boring old retired Paladin judges. Blah.

Wouldn't you rather worship "Yay!" than "Blah."?

Thanks Hyper, I dont use pb much, and I was at work. Stat errors crept in. I know you and Thanee will catch all errors, so I am good to go. =)

If he has a cohort already, I am gonna finish out with ftr 3/pal 5/CVL 3.
