Re: OOC:
We shall see if it gets boring. I am giving Kor and Shanaera a day to get their character up. I might open up a thread to get us started soon-ish, even if the sheets are not done yet.
"As the GM said 'he's more likely to say yes if he has the book' and he didn't list the book in his collection."
I know there are great spells in there, trust me, I cannot tell you how many times I have had to remove characters for refusing to ask about a specific spell and they throw a tantrum because it "ruins" their character build. I don't own the book, and I do own quite a few resources to draw from. If it is listed in the Compendium and another splat book in which I do own, go ahead and ask. I have access to it so I can let you know.
Overall, I think this will be a varied and interesting group. A heavy on the divine casting, but not such a bad thing, especially considering that we will have three different arcane casting types.
