I might not be posting this evening,I have been bloodying my knuckles punching out the faulty computers at work (having to reboot twice for each case due to server freeze...) and I need to be more present at home.

Goodnews is a returning player, formerly Zeelzeel Shadowspear and Mythos Songau.

In reply to Narrator (msg # 286):

He is looking to bring in a rogue type so The wastrel cre doesn't need Mischa, unless Sorsha is going to be active there.

I want the cabinet maker... ifnhe is a wood worker he might be able to.build ships ;)

that's apples to oranges, really.

In reply to Chye Isuel (msg # 289):

I am a henchman. If Sorsha isn't playing, I can't play

In reply to Chye Isuel (msg # 289):

Oh hi, what thread are we suppose to be in?  :)

I don't thibnk we're in one yet - not properly anyway... just preluding to our adventure in the Wastrel's Hope

Actually, not just apples and oranges, more like expecting a watchmaker to be able to build a car.  Even if (big, BIG if) able to default the skills at substantial penalty, won't have the tools or materials.

lol... exactly what i meant... i just didn't wanna sound so bludgeoning. xD

Yea, i don't agree.

Maybe I should ask the 'wizards' instead.

In reply to Haveron Stormwal (msg # 295):

Sorsha is in the Wastrel's hope. Sorry.

Enjoyed a day out with the missus, picknicking and such. Be back on tomorrow.

Narrator, do you use the Impulse Buys rules from either Basic or Power-Ups 5?

In reply to Jareth Mooncalled (msg # 297):

The impulse buys rules with the misses are always in effect...

So we have three mages in the Wastrels Hope now?

There can never be too many mages!

At least now they might be able to do what they promise, eh Berry?

In reply to Haveron Stormwal (msg # 299):

Gareth only promises to burn things! He will keep it to, given half a chance...like him to show you?

Go ahead,

I got my ale. It'd be good to have a wizard that likes to blow some stuff up :)

In reply to Haveron Stormwal (msg # 301):

"I will blow stuff if I can, but mostly I like to burn stuff. And create food from time to time..."

He gives a little gesture, and some rice and vegetables appear on the table, some of which he starts to eat.

"Haff shome..." he offers through a mouthful.

[Private to GM: Rolled 11 under skill. He ould make it rather spicy or fiery, as might be expected! Can the Cook spell be used to simultaneously make it tasty?]

In reply to Gareth (msg # 302):

You do know this is Ooc...

Dont stifle the creativity!

Takes some food and nom noms "Mmm mmfggooodd"

:D

Ah sweet a second food mage! This means I won't be responsible for feeding the whole party!

Fun Fact: If you use food magic to turn the dungeon walls into food you can eat your way through the dungeon! I recommend cotton candy because it has the highest volume/meals ratio. They also are a great way to start combat. Just turn your opponents sword into cookies!

Actual Question: Should I assume spells with a cost by unit like Create Water and Create Food has a minimum of one unit?

Also how much in the way of healing are wizards allowed to take? I know it says anything thats another college or a prereq for another college, but I think that's everything. Hell, Resurrection is a Necromancy spell!

By RAW?  Zero.  Technically*.

The best is to use Pyramid 3-60 Dungeon Fantasy III article Wizardry Redefined which reworks the prereq chain for spells that need to be reworked.

If necessary (like you don't have the magazine and don't wish to buy it) I can PM you the list of re-prereqed spells.



* In practice however, the Narrator has been allowing for us to take the Charm Perk, and then a single spell (or two or three, with two or three Perks) that fits to theme.

For instance Ulo, a Troll'wife' [1] 'Witch' [2], has Steal Energy and Steal Vitality [3] and will be picking up Share Energy [4] and Share Vitality as that fits to theme.


1 - She's unmarried.  For any eligible bachelor troll guys out there.  She's young and hungry... (and ugly as the day is long, someone done beat her with the burning ugly stick).
2 - Witch is a term of .. art?  She's a Wizard Harry!  And almost a Druid.  Almost.
3 - In my book Steal Vitality is totes a healing spell.  Just sayin.
4 - Share Energy is a Wizard spell.  Share Vitality is not.

In reply to Jareth Mooncalled (msg # 306):

Charms nonwithstanding, a straight up "Witch" usually has Magery1 and Power investiture 1, (usually in druid) or Wild Talent with spell retention, even at 125pt level.  In a way, using an Initate/Adept or Apprentice/Priest templates from DF 15 will get you something like the old Bishop  class, from Wizardry! (Funny thing, the Nintendo version of that, which I recently purchased, calls that hybrid class a Wizard rather than a Bishop)... for those inquiring, the Bishop of Sonne is a Veteran Treasure Hunting Initiate Adept. Yes, like other "name level" types he is clocking in at 500 points, but busy with a crusade someplace, which is why he is hiring adventurers not of his faith to clear the abbey...

In reply to Narrator (msg # 307):

Oops, sorry, wrong thread. Posted in the right one this time. Berry, the dungeon walls may work, but I doubt they will hold the sword still for long enough!

Worth noting that without any extensions, DF does allow wizards to learn Lend Energy and Recover Energy, both Healing college, because a wizard without Recover Energy is like a battery powered toy without spare batteries.
