O.o I need to pick up Twinned... Well, Anya's level 14, so next level, I should be able to get it. I think.

Um, I'm not actually using Sudden Quicken, it has waaay too damn many feat prerequisites. I'm actually using Metamagic Trick (Quicken), from my Magical Trickster levels. Totally worth the lost level of caster progression, IMHO. Quickened Disintegrate is one thing, and Quickened Reverse Gravity is the next >=)  (no save in a lot of cases, hahaha... and it doesn't say I can't stack those "10-foot cubes" on top of each other... so, every melee combatant I don't like goes bye-bye until I say otherwise, and then takes 6d6 fall damage)

Or how about Quickened Limited Wish? I'm earnestly surprised Anarose hasn't uttered that phrase yet, with or without the word "limited".

Do notice that both Anarose and Eurika never uttered Wish at all.

I just don't like it >.>

By RAW, Eurika could have been cured by a single Wish, but I didn't do that.


... If Anarose has to, she could potentially cast 5 Quickened Wishes in a single turn, though :P


EDIT: Of course, Epic spells do everything Wishdoes and more. Hypocritical me :3

Wish is a little too versatile in my opinion. Reviving people that had their bodies destroyed, teleporting anywhere (even if you barred that school of magic), granting up to +5 in all stats, etc. Personally I would suggest that it not be used as a spell. If we need the spell we should have to go on a quest for an item that has wishes on it instead, because that is one overpowered spell.

Seconding Fool's suggestion, because seriously, I don't like it either. I can see the abuse potential in it. :-\ (Also, nice, new avatar Fool. ^^^)

So I'm writing up the information for my character's tribe. Should I just give out the information since Rudra and a few others would autopass any knowledge check, or should I leave that for my character to awkwardly discuss? If nothing else I can post this right now.

Awesome new avatar, you'd win a lot of the Rate the Avatar Above You games  :P
Also, you're a cannibal Elf? Hoo boy. This is going to be ‼fun‼

And, it looks like I'll be deliberately not using Quickined Limited Wish... Not sure exactly how much to selfnerf on that topic, because on the one hand I could use it to make a lot of things we can already do more convenient, but on the other hand not using it as the "I win the game" button would come off as... unbefitting my in-character INT score. So, I haven't decided whether to take the spell and apply it sparingly, or just not take it. Luckily I've got 1.5 caster levels to gain before this becomes an issue...

cannibal Elf

It hasn't been brought up in awhile, but Rae (and Ria and Bael, by extension) is a cannibal Elf too. (Check Encounter Levels Are Untrustable log, it's in there somewhere. :3)

I found it in that log. Goblins and orcs are one thing, but would she be up for eating other elves?

She didn't say one way or the other, just that she had never had the opportunity. :3 Given that they're somewhat DF-based, I'd say no, she has no problem eating other elves. Probably not of her clan, but outsiders, sure.

I'd say most Elves of the Tyrmitore clan are ambivalent about cannibalism-they might not care to do so if better food is available, but if they have to they do it, they enjoy it without complaining. Survival is more important. They probably would not resort to eating their clan mates....

All in all, they're probably not nearly as enthusiastic about it as the Fir’Selyth are. :P

In my mind, Bael already views them with measured Disdain.

Question for us to decide. Should our clans already have had regular violent contact in the past?

I'd be up for violent confrontations. Although our forests would have to be fairly close together for it to work.

EDIT: If that is the case I should send you what I have so far for my tribe's information?

You might as well just make the info public. Rudra can make almost any knowledge check you throw at him.
Or, failing that, Luke probably could...
Or the other Elves...

Also, I think I'll just not take Limited Wish as one of my spells when it becomes available, to be nice to the DM. It is moy powerful.

Also, do you know what's really, really weird? Epic Wizards don't get any more spells per day than non-epic wizards. Any low-level spells per day that Anarose gets that I don't, is solely because of her hugely insane int mod. By level 60, her int score should be... maybe 40, 45 tops? She still only gets 9 first-level spells in a day =\
She's probably got 6 epic-level spell slots per day, though.

Also, it'd be nice if your send your tribe's info, because then it's easier to integrate it into the current world :3

@shoruke
The Fortify epic seed allows you to possibly increase your INT modifier to infinity, as long as you have enough willing wizards.

Also, the Epic rules never seem to have considered high level Epic characters, because Anarose can fire off 5 automatically quickened spells per round, has a bunch of metamagic feats allowing her to cast Maximize cheaply, has lots of extra spell slots above 9th, HP that rivals a fighter, but doesn't get extra spells...


The seeeecret magic part, I'll do it today.

I think you're only supposed to be able to use one quickened spell in a round...
