Xavier is ready... I hope

Does Xavier want to learn Sleep for free? I don't see it in his spellbook.

Renau1g

If Xavier doesn't want Sleep for whatever reason, Kerlan has established a precedent for substiuting Nerveskitter for it. But you could also pick out a completely different first level spell if you want. Crus is feeling generous at the moment. You might want to take full advantage of it before someone curdles his ovaltine!

 

[Leif]

ha, ha, ha!! renau1g took admirable steps to ensure that his wishes were followed: he listed on his character sheet which spells Xavier ordinarily prepares each day. So, if renau1g doesn't make an appearance on time, then we'll just assume that Xavier does indeed go with the party and that he has his usual spells prepared. Problem solved! And he still has one first level spell coming, too.

Hey Scotley, I just found out that gnome pcs are covered by 4e rules! Look in the Monster Manual on page 276, and you'll see a section for making "monster" pcs. Gnomes are the last entry on page 277. Interestingly enough, 4e Gnomes have the same racial ability adjustments as Doppelgangers. Go figure! But these are not your Grandma's Gnomes: 4e Halflings are actually closer to 3.5 Gnomes than 4e Gnomes are.

 

[Scotley]

Yes, I've seen the Gnomes. As you say they aren't quite the same. But most of the other races aren't either. It will be interesting to see what the full write up looks like.

Hey, I just noticed that 4e Living EnWorld is now open for business and you can play the MM races. So here's your chance to try a Gnome 4e style if you are interested.

[Leif]

Yeah, I know. LEW was what prompted me to check our the 4e MM the other night. I really thought about doing it, but I just don't think I'm ready for another new game right now. Good idea, though, thanks.

 

[renau1g]

I'm back! and yeah gnomes are a lot more mysterious and shadow-y now... less inventive and curious, more like the eberron gnomes I found.

 

[Leif]

And 4e halflings are a bit taller than they were before, and truthfully, seem to be a combination of the gnomes and halflings of previous editions. At least, that's the feeling that I get.
