And Restoration costs 100 gp or 1000 gp, depending on the use. For us, that will be 100 gp : once again you need blood money (Well, Mirelinda is bringing along a large stash of diamond dust that could be used for it too).

Lesser Restoration, on the other hand, is free (and level 1 for you): go for it !

Problem: you have too many good spell of level 1 to cast : Blood Money, Endure Element, Lesser Restoration, Create Water, Bless Water... Create Water is actually a cleric orison, which means all of us can take it with our one cleric level and cast it at will, so skip it or take it the same way. Stick with Endure Elements (Communal) after all. Forget Bless Water for now. That way you can take 5 Blood Money for your level 1 slot, fueling your Restorations, and 1 Lesser Restoration. And maybe take more Lesser Restorations in your higher level slots too...

Alternatively, be ready to beg diamond dust from Mirelinda, take one Blood Money per Bless Water (different material component, diamond dust won't help), and skip the lesser restorations. Then you can take Enhance Water and Endure Elements as first level spell.

How does this look in place of the sustenance spoon?

 Robe of Components

Aura moderate conjuration; CL 7th
Slot body; Price 5,000 gp; Weight 1 lb.
DESCRIPTION

The pockets of this simple blue robe always seem to carry just what the wearer needs whenever she casts a spell.

The robe functions as a spell component pouch, providing any spell components or focuses that are necessary for the wearer’s spellcasting. The robe can even produce spell components or focuses with a specific cost, though it provides no more than 50 gp worth of such materials in any single day. The materials supplied by the robe are suitable only for spellcasting, and disappear if they leave the wearer’s person or when the spell requiring them is cast.
CONSTRUCTION REQUIREMENTS

Craft Wondrous Item, minor creation; Cost 2,500 gp.

Well, it's better for you than me, obviously, since I have Eschew Materials: I'll need to recreate my focus components once, then I'll be set. The few spells with costly material components I have are too expensive for this anyway. Still, if it works for you, sure, after all you're the one paying for this :)

We all have eschew materials (at least if we followed the character generation rules).

I was thinking of the robe as it can create foci as needed up top 50 gp but after a few days on the new place, I think we will be creating our own from scratch.

However, since we have food covered between the spells and the paint, here is another revised version of the kit

Marvelous pigments (2)  8,000  -
Vest of tools (4)       7,200  20
Ring of sustenance      2,500
Handy Haversack         2,000  (5)
Wand endure elements(2) 1,500  -
Campfire bead (2)       1,440  -
Travelers Any-tool (4)  1,000  8
Ioun Torch (2)            150  -
potion cure lt wound (2)  100
Healer kit                 50   1
4 man tent                 30  40
Survival Kit(Common) (4)   20  16
map makers kit             10   2    25000      in haversack  87/120 lbs

Sounds good!.

So who is taking a kit?

Updated my spell list.

In reply to Baron Sider (msg # 100):

You don't take a kit, you wish for it once you are on the other side. Or you use two wish spells before crossing to have one created just as you arrived, and I'm already taking tattoos so I can't afford the wishes.

Pale and Tilly are the two characters using their available gold to make kits.

Don't forget Mirelinda's wardrobe ! I'm spending a whooping 1,000 gp (500 gp x 2) on this incredible kit !

I'm going for Baron's kit.  After all, he worked so hard on it for me!

Just a side note: upon their arrival, your characters are suddenly finding themselves some 40-50 years younger.

While they fully expect this, and so won't be surprised, they might (and probably should) still be somewhat affected by it... Even in a world where magic is almost as common as technology is in ours, this isn't something that happens every day - it's on par with a Wish, at least.

I am also still unsure what kind of gift pack Pale wants to get. I would suggest including some masterwork artisan tools, including masterwork artisan tools of spellcraft, since these are mundane items and therefore follow the time-consuming rules for crafting.

Finally, RAW sunk my Marble of Magica by making the Runestones of Power have a cost of 2k per level squared, so I will have to double the price of a MoM to 3k per level squared.

So, am I allowed to magic up my sword and armor?  And it's 25k of stuff per wish, right?

You fellows should really consider Pale at your disposal. I'll have a few ideas but you guys seem far more organized so please use his gold and spells at will.

Do we just post through now or what?

I am really supposed to introduce you guys as you arrive, but on the one hand these days have been a little hectic, and on the other I am not even entirely sure who the next one is.

On the gripping hand, I would like to know the details of the second kit, just so that I can save everything for future use.

I will try to fix this in the coming week, and hopefully then we will be all set to start the first week of in-game time.

Who's next?

I can go next if you want!

I'm still unsure what I'm wishing up. Sword and armor?

Zhorr's first day was more than a little messed up... And it isn't even done yet!

The following ones should be much easier, though, and the GM notes will be much shorter as well.

Prepare this set of spells (some of which may have to be borrowed from Archmage Sider's book, since Zhorr only has so many points of Arcane Pool).

Write down that set of spells that were not in the book yet.

Make this item.

Rest & story time.

Who's next?

I've been working on a post; hopefully tomorrow!

I'm not quite  sure what to post for game mechanics.

I could certainly make any number of posts otherwise.

I have finished most of my post, so I should definitely finish tomorrow.
