My bad, I wasn't sure what Tarlyn had told Pietro, hence the assuming line of questioning.

Cornelius will attempt to identify the items.

Once Cornelius identifies the objects he discovers the following:

Personally I like the 2nd edition approach to the Identify spell. Ewan will probably agree with me on this. It's way too easy with the 3.5 version spell.

P.S - Where's Wraithform or Chariot of Sustarre in 3.5?????


Okay so enough of my ranting, as this is the result of the identifications:

Bullets are +1.
All 4 potions are Potions of Quintessence [3d8 hp]
Ring: 3 x day [Black Tentacles - P,S another rant they removed names
from spells in 3.5 :P]
: Blink 2 x day

The ring is one of my own invention so sue me!

Hey Tarlyn,

it's not like they've removed the names. They still exist in D&D 3.5. They've just taken it off D20 SRD because of copyright on the characters. But you can still say Evard's Black Tentacles if you wish, that's what comes in my PHB... or, better yet, prefix it with a mage's name of your own :-)

After all, these names don't make much sense for those of us who've never player GH or AD&D 1st, I guess...

Well, I always use the names! I have learnt the spells as Bigby's, Evard's, Leomuld's etc I like these names! :P

True but if you look in the book there are no names, so sue me :P ~~

Your copy must be odd in some fashion tarlyn because I have it listed as "Evard's Black Tentacles" as the name listed in my 3.5 PHB. Bigby, Mordenkainen, Otiluke, ect are all still heading the spells in my PHB so perhaps there where different printings?
Or as Ali said are you maybe refering to a different book maybe? :?

I guess as long as we know what the spell is it does not matter to much!
