Thanks, @soises! I knew he'd be fun to play but didn't expect THIS MUCH fun! 😂

@Len, your alliterations throughout that battle were so on point! 😄

I love how Jules turns from this


to this

Next stop? Becoming Rammsteins lead singer! XD

I need to pick 4 new spells from this list of 1st & 2nd level wizard spells.

Right now I'm considering:

• Mage Armor
✅ Tenser’s Floating Disk
✅ Protection From Evil & Good

---

✅ Rope Trick
• Blur
✅ Vortex Warp

I'm still staying away from too combat-y damage-dealing spells. Leaning heavily towards utility. In combat, will most likely continue to favor Silvery Barbs.

Any suggestions?

My issue with Protection from Evil and Good is that it consumes the material components, so you have to have a steady supply of holy water or powdered metal. The actual amount of holy water is debatable, so if we manage to get our hands on a couple of vials or flasks and Len is generous enough, you might get multiple castings off a few sprinkles here and there.

I love Tenser's disk and rope trick, personally, but I've never managed to use them in-game. I agree about the utility and would like to see it in play.

Vortex Warp sounds amazing and I would definitely pick that.

Great battle, everyone. I'm finding your character level up choices interesting to read as well :)
Thanks :) I've been trying to use alliteration and other language tricks to give the narration a light-hearted fairy tale feel.
CancerMan gave some great advice there, as usual!

I'm also open to reflavouring the spells to be more timey-wimey. Like, Tasha's Hideous Laughter could catch the opponent into a time loop instead of a fit of laughing. Ray of Frost could slow the opponent because of time manipulation. Same mechanics, different description!

That goes for other characters whose abilities don't quite match their character. We can always chat about it to make sure it fits the game.
Yeah, soises knows how to rogue! I liked the way the whole party played it: In addition to Jules' devastating hit-and-run attacks=, Twisp locked down Agdon early on with Tasha's Hideous Laughter; Reynard's chopped Agdon's HP in half during his devastating action surge; Quennan's entangle locked up a whole group of foes for the whole fight; Verrain milked every possible action out of Beven, simultaneously tanking the brigands' attacks, sleeping foes, and inspiring allies; and even though Sarynn's dice were rotten this time she still dished out and soaked up plenty of hurt.

Regarding Protection from Good and Evil, since it lists no cost I will considering it a negligible amount. But, it's not the kind of thing that would be auto-included in a component pouch or be replaced by an arcane focus.

7 years! Wheeeeeee! 🥳 I want to thank each one of you for being part of why I love this community!

It's having the intended effect. It's working really well!
Tasha's Hideous Time Loop! I love it! Yeah I was thinking the rope for Rope Trick could become a clock pendulum or some such. I've been having lots of fun with Silvery Barbs the way it's been reflavored for Twisp. I'm looking forward to seeing Jules' interpretation of that spell.
Side quest? 😁

Congrats! :)

In my country there is a saying about the damned 7th year, so be careful. ;)


And I/Jules will probably steal Twisps version. It was him who showed Jules how it's done. *G*

Beautiful scene, @Len! And the music was just perfect!

I had originally written Twisp just pocketing the items but I've gone back to rewrite it with Twisp intending to return the needle & thread to their owners.

Because:

Was Illig, the Baron of Muckstump mentioned before? I'm sorry I can't remember. Qnd the site's search function gave me nothing.

No, this is new information.

As posted in Absences thread.

Have a good trip!

Does Jules show the others the orb he stole?

Of course he plans to give the orb with the colour to Quennan. :)
