In case you haven't noticed, I'm pretty much hooked in. Not much for pbp (too slow) but I'll join in on your OOC chat so long as I can remember I've been posting in here.

Oh, I don't really mind. Most of time I find what you write fun, useful and/or interesting.

Question: While the game is called Wizard college, I take it divine casters are alright as well?

EDIT: Assuming yes, I have a two more questions regarding Animal Companions:
1) Flaws & Traits for the AC? Since we already have things like Loredrake running around, I might as well ask :P
2) Swapping out/retraining feats for more useful ones? Things like Alertness and Improved Natural Attack are a bit lackluster...

Hey Aye, you could look into the feats in Dragon 298 as some fun necro boosters.

Shiks, do you care about carrying capacity or encumbrance?

Anything partly Neutral on any axis is fine over there.

1) Flaws & Traits for the AC? Since we already have things like Loredrake running around, I might as well ask :P

2) Swapping out/retraining feats for more useful ones? Things like Alertness and Improved Natural Attack are a bit lackluster...

I'm fine with that too.

I'm not pointy with those numbers, although don't be packed like a horse if you normally can't. :p

What's the list of item you want him to carry all the time? In the school you won't have to carry too much things anyhow because you can dump most of your stuff in the dorms.

Oh yeah!  I don't have to worry about crap like a bedroll or a tent, and if I do I can just by a freaking mule.  Rock on.

Question: How do we calculate HP?

Also, any suggestions for flaws for a Druid? Thought about Bestial Instinct, but unfortunately that's not compatible with Dissolving Spittle

You're highly allergic to pollen and incur a -1 penalty to ability checks, skills, saves, and attack rolls each round spent outdoors or wearing wooden armor. Immunity to poisons lessen this to only affect your saves.

With Focused Necromancer/Anima Mage, I'm fluffing this character as one that lets departed spirits inhabit his body to cast his spells.  Is there a decent second PrC for a debuff-focused Necromancer that fits that concept better than Dread Witch?

Crap... Shiki, I just realized that Master Transmogrifist doesn't allow you to choose monsters of your own type as favored shapes.  I'm going to rework into Swiftblade, ok?

There aren't any lockers because it's a boarding school.  Students keep their effects in their dorms.  Instructors likewise have their own living quarters.

That said, it's not a stretch for the school to provide bags of holding for students who request them and are found needing.  The school also has a crafting area and likely even class for those who are so inclined.

I don't remember if you posted this in the old thread, but how are you treating bloodlines?  The prereq feats for Swiftblade suck... would you accept a custom major bloodline?
