Whirtlestaff's Wizards' Acad. Revisited, OOC02

[Leif]

Yes, renau1g, take Xavier back. He's cast Lesser Orb of Electricity twice, by using the pearl of power, but otherwise he's as Leif left him.
It will take me all of today and possibly tomorrow to get Francheska Walova, Xavier's distant cousin, a chaotic good female fire elf Evoker 3 / Master Specialist 2 (forbidden schools: Illusion and Necromancy) (working towards Argent Savant) in the rogues gallery with background. If fire elf is too far out, then high elf, but I wanted to give her fire-red hair and that ash gray skin.

No, Fire Elf is fine for Francheska W. I was mainly worried that someone would be miffed if I let you choose a race that I didn't allow at the beginning, but, I guess, if anyone was going to do that, I'd already have caught major grief because of Manny the Brownie. ("House Elf" a la Harry Potter?) Anyway, the feedback that I've received about your Fire Elf has been positive, so go for it. One thing I'm curious about is how a Fire Elf is a distant cousin to Xavier, a human. I guess 'cousin' must be by marriage? Either that or there is some REAL weirdness going on amongst the tangled branches of Xavier's family tree! Do you want her to also be a Whirtlestaff's student, or do you want her to have her wizard training from elsewhere? If the latter, she will perhaps need to transfer to Whitelstaff's in the future, but we'll cross that bridge when we come to it. If you'd rather have her be mostly another class, I can probably deal with that, too, as long as you give her at least one level of Wizard, and not necessarily her last level as was the previous requirement. But, if you want her to be all wizard, that will certainly work, too.

Francheska Walova

Lou, I'm also curious as to your rationale for why Francheska is a "fire elf." If this a separate race altogether, some weird kind of magical mutation in her family or even just in herself? Did her grandma get it on with a Salamander? Maybe her family/clan/tribe emigrated here from a plane closely associatea with the elemental plane of fire? Maybe they're part dragon? In which case, you'd be wholly justified in making her a sorcerer rather than a wizard, which would also be a nifty twist.

Sorry Lou, I just now noticed that you've already said, Evoker 3 / Master Specialist 2 headed for Argent Savant. You've managed to pick my favorite prestige class, too! Force Mages are the coolest!

Woo-Hoo, hot-diggity. Thanks for taking good care of him for me Lou.

P.S. We're level 5 now? Did I miss something?

 

[Leif]

No, LOU's Francheska is level 5. Xavier, Capizzio, Tylara, and Manny have the xp for it, they just need to level-up to L5.

You can all level up when you rest for the current night, too. On looking at your spell books again, you notice that the spells for your next level advancement have already been added. (You just never looked that far back in the book before.) Apparently, your Profs at Whirtlestaff's wanted to be sure that you had all that you needed for continued growth between terms. The really amazing thing is that they know each of you so well that they added to your spellbooks that exact spells that you would have chosen! (Funny how that works, huh?)

 

[Lou]

Xavier has the Fey Heritage feat, so he has an ancestor with fey blood somewhere in the past. My reading of elves is that they have a different take on history, not tracking individuals as much as events. But since elves live longer than humans, Francheska Walova was able to determine that her mother's sister-in-law's grandfather or therabouts fathered a child with a human some dozen or so human generations ago. After some extensive digging through human archives, Fran thinks that the wizard Xavier is a decendant of that half-elf. (she could be wrong...) Fran originally studied at an elven school, but she is a bit of a wild child and did not get along with her elven teachers. After a professor from Whirtlestaff gave a demonstration on force conjuration at her school, her teachers recommended that she transfer there and out of their hair. Since Xavier is there, she is ready for the change.

 

[Leif]

Very cool stuff, Lou!! Now what about the FIRE part? hehe

 

[Scott DeWar]

got it on with a slamander? that had to have been....oh, wait. there is a clause in the rules about the 'granny clause to the pg rating of threads. never mind.

 

[Scotley]

I think we can safely say the 'encounter' with a salamander was 'hot' without raising the ire of Granny.

 

[Leif]

Yes, renau1g, take Xavier back. He's cast Lesser Orb of Electricity twice, by using the pearl of power, but otherwise he's as Leif left him.

If he's not as YOU left him, renau1g, it's still Lou's fault! If I made any changes to him, they would only have been improvements! Actually, come to think of it, I did monkey with his description a bit and maybe some other fluff as well. Disregard that and put your own stamp back on him!

 

[Leif]

I think we can safely say the 'encounter' with a salamander was 'hot' without raising the ire of Granny.

Let's just say that a steamy tryst with a Salamander would definitely make even Granny's temperature rise!
