Hello, I am the Gnome on Isabella's shoulder.

DeepShadow, I am curious to know where the spell "Locate Mark" is from?

Depending on what kind of duration you need, you might consider using scrolls or a wand for reduce person as it doesn't really benefit from CL scaling.

You might also consider spells with a target of 'you' since you can cast those on your Eidolon with share spells. (Shield, Alter Self, etc)

I am agnostic on the question. I don't actually have anything to hide (I'm boring), so eh?

Hmm. Would this be a Pathfinder-ized version of the Locate Mark-spell from the Gazetteers? It'd be fun if it was...

Isabella and I have been working on Mulani Fashion! The Jarenberg colors are red and silver, hence (in part) the choice for the male garb.

This is for the up-in-the-mountains Mulani--down in the central plain, the south and the east, where it's much hotter, they wear more of what you see in the Gaz. This applies mostly to the outdoors; indoors people wear less so that you can see the tattoos.

Also, Isy has compiled this catalog of Hazlani fashion, which is awesome. I notice with relief that she has NOT included Eleni's "outfit", at least not on a live model, though one of them comes close!

A sad public service announcement--my carpals are tunneling, wrist and elbow pain in my right hand. :shock: I must be sparing in my typing for the next while, so I will have to limit my posting and will be more terse than I would like. I apologize for the inconvenience. :(

Podcast our posts to us, in a deep and soothing voice.

(I kid. Speaking from experience, keep those carpals untunneled 'til they're better.)

That would be correct.

Well, I expect I'd be casting it 1-3 times a day when not adventuring, which may get expensive with a wand. Average of twice a day, that would burn out a wand in under a month. Also, because the main reason for it is transportation, duration is a critical factor.

List looks good to me. Glad to see that even without a cleric, we've got some healing. I may have a little something I can add to that, but only in emergencies. :elena:

Neo, I think our PC's might be penpals. As a possible pretext, you might have had an interest in summoning, and a teacher told you about my character's unusual ability. I'll comb through your background to see what else I might find, but bear with me--that thing is long reading!

Well, main issue is that a cleric of my level could heal 3d8+5, so about twice as much per cast, and have more spells. I know a lot of spells, but I'm somewhat constrained by how often I can cast them. So we're good on out-of-combat healing, but in combat, better hope the eidolon tanks.

I suspect Lena will be in Hazlan on Diplomatic Business, but penpals are fine. Best chance might be during her time in Dementlieu, if your Boritsi ever traveled there for school or something? She might be a bit before his time though.

Well, the eidolon doesn't heal naturally, but other than that, it's a pretty decent bodyguard. Three to five attacks per round at 1d4+3, fifty HP? What else makes for a good tank?

Vasili hasn't ever traveled outside of Hazlan, except his childhood in Bergovista. Most of his penpals have never met him face-to-face. If you really think they should have met face-to-face, maybe they met via the Midnight Market? She enters in Dementlieu, he enters in Hazlan? That is, of course, if Nathan approves? :twisted:
