Robes, apparently, and wizard school
Sep. 30th, 2021 07:45 amI have gone quiet again.
I have been fiddling around with Pathfinder rule books for a while
to describe characters that I then decide dont fit
so make up my own ideas instead.
The bending process in between is sometimes productive, but honestly, trying to write a whole page of dialogue tells me more anyways.
My laptop is back from the repair place.
... kind of made me realise how little I use my laptop.
... I dont do much but scroll scroll scroll the internet lately.
Today I was poking around looking for wizard robes, only then I started thinking, exactly what are we spinning off from here, and why?
Like, we could pick religious robes, or academic robes, or 1500s clothes, or 1000s clothes, or current not usually British clothes because actually a lot of places are still wearing your basic tube, or, we could draw a wizard as basically a bloke in a dress.
Funnily enough, v different statements, each and all.
And you can find wizardy stereotypes to go with all of them I think.
( Read more... )
So. Anyway.
That's what I've been thinking.
Also, the wizard academy module with the three in ten death rate seems implausible, but then I look at the challenge rating for random encounters around the city, and I am unsure what the ten year survival rate is outside the Academy either.
At least inside they're going to learn a few spells.
... you kind of have to figure that Adventures happen to Adventurers though, otherwise the whole ecosystem just... is way too lethal to work.
... I should probably go and have breakfast now.
