Thanee said:Here's some more insight into my thoughts during the character design...
Yes indeed, there are many good reasons to play a conjurer.
The Beguiler, while what you say is certainly true, seems too limited in options (too focused), and the Battle Sorcerer has so few spells known mostly, which makes the class somewhat unattractive (the Sorcerer surely has few spells already, but even less?). I wanted to make a versatile character, and those two don't really fit that image.
Ya, both suggestions would do a lot to limit the character, but they would also have some perks. If you're happy with things the way they are though, I am too. After all, if you're looking for versatility, it's hard to do better than the wizard.
As for the stealth... Serrah has a ring of invisibility, which should help quite a bit there (of course, it's not perfect). I could probably get her 7 ranks in Hide and Move Silently, if I look hard enough at her skill selection, which would end up in +11 each (maybe even +16 with some cheap elvenkind items, which are probably affordable somehow). And there is always the option to use various spells for stealth.
Alright, now I just feel silly. I actually looked specifically for a ring of invisibility on your sheet before making that comment and it would seem I totally missed it. With that in mind, you'll really only need to make yourself silent capable, and if you're sneaking with Kipling, a silence spell on a token or something like that would do the trick (just be sure to put it back in your pack before trying to cast!).
Serrah has many options, and for the skills, I focused a bit more on social skills (while she is no bard, it's probably good enough to get by in a social environment), rather than stealth skills for now.
Which is obviously a good thing since you may run into a few such situations.
[/QUOTE]The first seems quite fitting, actually, considering what I had in mind. Even though, Serrah might not really be a hardcore theoretician, but she certainly came from that direction when she got initiated in the order.[/QUOTE]
Ok, when I get back home from work then I'll provide you with some more info on the College and what your obligations to them may be. Keep in mind that having some kind of allegiance to another organization will add another dynamic to the game.
