We're allowing character rebuilding? Can I switch around some base stats? :X

Save-or-dies.
Two problems.
1. Truenaming doesn't trigger saves.
2. Truenaming doesn't have many "die" effects. If they're underwater, though, I have something to work with.
"You Lose" effects, then. Lemme check.

Hence why "die" was in quotes.
And aside from Confusion or one-round petrification, there's nothing available ATM. Syllable of the Minotaur is pretty okay, although they get another save each turn to escape, and Level 6 has some goodies, but I don't want to wait 2-8 levels to be functional.

Possibly replacing some class levels.

[GreatWyrmGold] gets a little crown. May it forever be his mark of Cain; let no one argue pointless subjects with him lest they receive the same.

Mainly I wanted to funnel stats from Con to elsewhere since I'm going undead in a few levels.

@Grek: Can I have the true-seeing gem? I noticed you seem to have claimed all three of them, but I could sorely use some extra modes of vision.

Sure, as long as we're not leaving them behind/selling them.

If Drak doesn't want the amulet of the silver tongue, I'll take it.

If you can hit DC 32, Syllable of Affliction causes Nauseated for a minute, which should be more than enough to take care of an enemy who can't fight back.

Why would I want it?
Oh, right. You think it would help. No, that's all RP.

It's a +5 to Truespeak amulet. As the only other truespeaker in the party (and the only one that uses truename on people without knowing their truename first), I figured I would give you first dibs on it.

It is?
Hm...are you going to continue being a full truenamer? As opposed to multiclassing?

Not to mention that multiclassing out of any sort of casting class without continuing that advancement is much akin to shooting yourself in the food with large caliber poisoned bullets.


Did I mention that plenty of utterances work on teamates, and uses on allies do not need to conform to the absolute limit? If you have nothing do to, you only have yourself to blame.

Did I mention that darn near all of my Utterances are attacks?

Scratch that, did I mention that darn near all Utterances that aren't heavily situational are attacks? And all buffs are minor and 1-round? And that I have used buffs before, without feeling like I was helping?

Probably going Necronomist 20, yeah. It really really doesn't multiclass well, and there are basically no prestige classes you can qualify for with necronomist levels.
