"Did you really think I would tell you my plans and let you take me alive?"
The words of his spell tumbled quickly from his lips as sparks danced between his fingers. The lightning arced out, and I felt myself falling to the floor as the electricity washed over me.
I forced myself to stay conscious. (Needs 35 Willpower or 40 Body)I felt my muscles spasm and my body bounce around as the lightning flowed through me, but I kept my wits. When his spell concluded, I had enough presence of mind to blast him with a simple force spell. He flew backward into the wall, not expecting it, and was knocked out.

I took him to Master Durgan , who had finally managed to revive Archmage Lacius, who had been poisoned. They were overjoyed that I had found the source of their problems and rectified the situation.
"You saved the Academy," Master Lacius said solemnly.
"I told you that this one was special," Master Durgan said with a friendly smile.
They took Master Ballin into custody and set out criers to let the Academy know that the magical siege of their spells was over. Archmage Lacius put his arm around me and smiled happily. He told me that I would make a great Archmage someday, despite the fact that I hadn't graduated.They noticed that I didn't have a Wizardly Staff of my own, so they gave me one. It was made from solid oak and felt very good in my hands. They also gave me a wonderful present. It was a tome of ancient magic, detailing many glyphs, runes and ley lines. I knew that it must have come from the Archmage's personal library. I thanked them and went on my way.

I remember when a finely dressed human came into the Full Cup Inn to hire us for a specific job.
"I am Thaddeus Burrmont," the dandy said. "I have spent a lot of money to purchase the location of a powerfully enchanted weapon. My offer is simple: I give you the location, you get me the weapon and keep all of the other treasure."
It was an excellent proposal, so I took the deal.
We had an enjoyable ride, Dog enjoyed being outside and the horses of the other party members moved quickly.
(Geography +3)
We followed the road toward the destination marked on the map, a small cove in the far east along the shores of the Silver Sea. It was somewhere around the halfway mark that a very strange thing happened. We had a nice campsite alongside the road and it was my turn keeping watch. There was a soft, silvery glow on the edge of the campfire's light, when out stepped a miraculous creature straight from legend. At first, I thought it was a white horse, but the single horn on its forehead and fluffy white wings made me realize it was something special: a flying unicorn.
1) I approached it, hoping to befriend it.
2) I killed it, wondering what type of treasure it would have.
3) I watched it in awe.Gorl Rockeater, a troll wizard.
