    Spell allotment for a level 7 enchanter (Xan)?
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    @Evinfuilt I thought you had more mentioned it as a possibility, but sure, okay! We'll go with that. :) Of course, I may have misread. Anyhoo, that's fine, then. (Still not feeling 100% there, mentally, but I am trying as best I can).

    @Fighting_Ferret Still waiting on your decision on Xan's gear.
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    @Fighting_Ferret Spells- 5, 4, 3, 2 With one of each level being an enchantment spell, of course.

    OOC:
    If we are playing 2E, you should have 4 in lvl1, 3 in lvl2, 2 in lvl3 and 1 in lvl4. Plus one each level because he is an specialist
    What means:
    Lvl 1: 5
    Lvl 2: 4
    Lvl 3: 3
    Lvl 4: 2
    And, I really don't know which spells you have, ask the DM.

    EDIT: Duh, the DM was quicker.

    OK... for gear:

    Ring of Spell Turning
    Ring of Warmth
    Cloak of Protection +1
    Periapt of Wound Closure
    Amulet of ESP 90' Radius
    Robe of Useful Items
    Wand of Paralysis (40)
    Wand of Wonder (81)
    Dust of Disappearance(7)
    Potion of Flying
    Scrolls: Protection from Undead, Protection from Demons, Protection from Petrification

    Are we limiting spells to baldur's gate games?
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    @Fighting_Ferret Yes, for now.

    Imoen's treasure:
    -Scarab of Protection.
    -Protection from Undead (scroll).
    -Dagger+2,+3 against bigger than Mankind.
    -Studded Leather Armor+1.
    -2 Arrows +2 (yes, only two).

    -Some normal arrows, preferably a stack of 77.

    Can I grab more items? I really like doing so! Besides being a pick pocket :D and a thief who abuses of her thieving skills.
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    @Fighting_Ferret So noted.

    @CrevsDaak You can carry the rest, if you like. :)

    Thanks, but I will get encumbred :P just tell Xan to give me the Prot from Undead scroll ;( I will carry all the weight-less things like scrolls and the sort.

    OOC: may I ask again? Can I research for spells if I dual-class now or I will have to get a scroll to get spells?
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    @CrevsDaak You can probably get spells that Xan or Quayle have. And any from scrolls you find, of course. But there's no place here to research, really. Research requires a Library you just don't have.
  • CrevsDaakCrevsDaak Member Posts: 7,155
    @LadyRhian OK, I thought that you were also able of researching via experimenting with magic, but maybe that is only for Wild Mages. I will dual-class some level later, just not now.

    I'll let everyone else choose equipment first. If anything fit for a fighter is left, I'll use it... for now Khalid is happy with his shiny brand new sword, armor and shield ;)
  • The_Potty_1The_Potty_1 Member Posts: 436
    Quayle wakes, and looks about. Oh good, more targets to hide behind, he thinks with a grin.

    He stands, and immediately gravitates to Xan's sword. This is brilliant! ... So, does anyone have any marshmallows? No one does. He sighs, but then brightens. The glowing sword! It can be identified.

    But first, it's time to dump some of the junk he's carrying. He wanders over to the much reduced pile of equipment. The two +3 maces go first, followed by the Scale Mail +1. Instead he grabs the Plate Mail +1.

    He then grabs the remaining potions, but throws the potion of speed and ring of fire resistance to Khalid, with an "if you can't think quick, at least you can hit quick". Whatever Khalid thought of that went unnoticed. He also gave all of the named swords to Keldorn to carry, the +1, +4 vs Reptiles, the +2 Dragonslayer, the +2 Giantslayer, and the +2, +3 vs Shapechangers.

    With a start, he remembers something else. He walks over to Minsc, and grabs the Holy Symbol of Ravenkind, so now he has both that and the Icon of Ravenloft.

    Finally, he sits down, and casts identify on the glowing sword.


    [OOC]
    Does the Holy Symbol of Ravenkind stack with the Icon of Ravenloft? Can I use both together, so Quayle turns undead at level 9?

    Minsc has been restored, does he still need to be healed?

    Is Quayle overloaded carrying the plate? Given my number of arcane spells, it probably makes sense to wear plate, unless he can't move.

    Do vampires count as Shapechangers?

    OOC:
    According to my knowledge, and how Nosferatu are defined as undead, they are not shapechangers.
    Also, in the book "Dracula" they say like 239 hundred zillion of times that he is an undead, but anyway he can shapechange, what is, well, strange, but in AD&D he is only treated as an undead fellow.



    Minsc has been restored, does he still need to be healed?

    If you casted Lesser Restoration from the scroll, yes, Lesser Restoration do not heals Hit Points, while Greater Restoration gives full Hit Points to all the party in a range of 50 (still not sure about the range), and is and incredible spell, because is one of the few that are worth a lvl7 spellslot, besides, it has short casting time, so, if you cast it in the middle of the battle, you can give it a turn, since it does all the things Heal (lvl6 spell) does plus, it restores lost levels.
  • The_Potty_1The_Potty_1 Member Posts: 436
    Grumble grumble ring of regeneration grumble Quayle will cast cure light wounds on Minsc, and will probably have to redo his spell book and sleep. Does anything else need to be identified? What about the sword hilt Minsc has? OK well Quayle will try to identify the sword hilt if he successfully identifies the glowing sword. Can identify fail?
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    Alora is peeved that Quayle is still attempting to identify the glowing sword after she already identified it to her own - if not everybody else's - satisfaction. She also doesn't like the idea of Quayle falling asleep again. He spends far too much time asleep in her opinion. And she doesn't like the way he looks at her feet.

    Alora is putting Quayle on her list (just below Kivan).
  • CrevsDaakCrevsDaak Member Posts: 7,155
    @Permidion_Stark what type of list? :P If it has something to do with pizza please add me, but don't do if not.
    Also, you can try pickpocketing Quayle while he sleeps, so you can Identify the sword and the hilt.
  • EvinfuiltEvinfuilt Member Posts: 505
    Sleep well Quayle, I will stand the night and protect us. Maybe the hamster will keep me company, it seems most agreeable.

    So many city folk here, I hope none wish to call this *castle* home when we rid it of its evil. It must be torn down and burnt to cinders.

    Alora's list has nothing to do with pizza. It works more like this:

    OOC: Alora won't attempt to steal anything from Quayle. She is a very poor pick-pocket and she can't really identify anything anyway.

    You spend too much time in the city child... The first thing you think of is insults, while we are mired in this unnatural place. Let us put away our differences for once and deal with the graver evils in this land. Nothing here feels right, nothing. It makes me skin crawl just being here.

    "There are dangers here, but that does not make me forget the path of a shadow druid. Ever are your kin strongest when underestimated or ignored. Your tools are the same as for the assassin: poisons, lies and stealth. Your faction claim that other druids are too weak to do what is needed. Do not make the mistake to believe that I am weak Faldorn.

    Khalid, we will stay away from her. You can take the last ring of fire protection, but I will keep the periapt against poison as I may well need it." (she looks over at Faldorn again).

    occ The group will need a leader. Due to mistrust I doubt Jaheira or Faldorn will accept one another. Keldorn? Quayle? Someone else?

    ME ME PICK ME!!! Or just let Keldorn be our leader, he deserves so.
  • mlnevesemlnevese Member, Moderator Posts: 10,214
    Sure my d-dear.... Khalid slides the ring on his finger while keeping an eye around him, expecting an attack any moment.
  • Awong124Awong124 Member Posts: 2,642
    Kivan walks up to the two quarreling druids and puts his arms around their shoulders, "alright ladies, our journey through this creepy castle looks like it would be rather perilous, so we should all be nice to each other and put aside our differences... Now kiss and make up."

    Kivan attempts to push Jaheira and Faldorn's faces together.

    WATCH OUT!!! YOU ARE TRYIN' TO PUT Nitrogen1 and Toluene3 together!!!!! ITS GONNA BLOW!!!!! WE ARE GONNA BE BLOWN!!!!!
    Imoen rans away and hides besides sleeping Quayle, after some seconds she wakes up, but she is feelin' lazy anyway. She starts drawing in the ground with a stick, she draws a beautiful sunset with flying cars.
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    @Lockmund Minsc has been around the castle before, more or less. "Minsc leads. Swords for Everybody!" ;) Seriously, though, he's the only one who has explored part of the castle. And… that's if you can get out… One of the doors locked when everyone ran in to fight the spiders. And it can only be opened from the other side… Oops.

    OOC:
    Wraithform? A useless spell in BG1/2 but it could help here :D IDK if it lets you got past over objects.
    Teleport without error or whatever its name is from PnP?
    Dimension Door? :P:D You'll say no :P
    Slight correction: "Magic is impressive, but now, Minsc leads, swords for everyone!!!!"
  • Fenris308Fenris308 Member Posts: 118
    When everyone is rested and ready Minsc explains the current situation. "We must save the little girl then bring the battle to Strahd! But this time we will be ready....." He then cordinates his understanding of the castle's layout with Alorah and Keldorn to figure out where they need to explore next.

    *bares her teeth at Jaheira, pulls back and lands a kiss on Kivan.

    "I'd always wondered, alas it was nothing like the stories. I'd find Quayle more to my liking I think."
