That was for Manny - Int 20.

Damn.... you smart Brownies...Makes Xavier's 18 look stupid

How'd it get so high?

Thanks, Kerlan. Note that even with that spell going, you still need a Comprehend Languages unless you understand the language of the book. Like I said, the chances of Magus Crus having the particular Pearls of Speech that you need is slim at best. Probably not a good idea to count on that, DeWar.

He's just a smart little XXXX, I guess. I'm pretty sure Brownies have a +2 (at least) to intelligence. But they have, like -4 or -6 to Str, too. If memory serves. Mowgli has the template posted in the RG for this game, I think.

Since the best possibility is Capizzio reading for 2 1/2 hours per day with comp lang, I think that his best bet is to read them another day.

500 hours div by 2.5 hours per day = 20 days

I can spend 6 days making scrolls or reading scrolls and putting them in his spell book

Since you're only going to be reading and scribing for 2.5 hours/day, you can still do lots of stuff during the rest of the day, too, can't you?

 

[Leif]

The fact that Wizards can use a second, third, fourth, or higher slot to prepare a first level spell, raises the question -- can spontaneous casters do likewise and expend a higher level slot to spontaneously cast a lower level spell? It seems like they should be able to do this, logically, but I think we've all seen how 'logic' does not apply in any sort of uniform fashion to D&D.

It must be that "herb" that gets put into the brownies, Man!

I'm sure you're exactly right!

 

[Scott DeWar]

now according to my math, 5 spells at 50 mins each spell = 250 mins of comp lang. that give him 4 hours to read the books and 10 mins to spare. that would there fore give him 4 hours of reading and 4 hours of scroll reading per day.



500hours of reading @ 4 hours/day = ...125 days?! unacceptable!

Scribble scribble scraatch...

ok, hows we try this:
daily spell casting:
spell one: comp lang for 50 mins
spell 2 through 5:
scolor's touch for 5 books each casting, total of 20 books
Will take 8 days and leaves 4 hours and 8 mins per day to do 'whatever'

8 days is not as good as 6, but much better then 125, eh?

so, that means he can do 8 half days of working on his spllbook. dc 16 to read and scribe a lv 1 spell from a scroll. if failure, then cant try until improvement is made on spellcraft score.

time to get to work. 8 days worth!

 

[Leif]

I'm feeling generous, and you have all of these other wizards to help you remember your Spellcraft lessons, too. For purposes of scribing and copying new spells into your spellbooks during these 8 (or however many) days, everyone automatically succeeds on their Spellcraft checks.
