Still, I can't let this get too close to me. That more slaves from Arcadia were to come. I must try to keep the others thinking that it doesn't face me, but I am frightened by what Mr. Perhaps the only reason I didn't go insane from this terror is the mere fact that I'm playing it down. Corpses are lining the streets, people are being killed publicly, and the accents of those gnomes are just horrendous! Somehow my mind still refuses to accept this place actually exists and that we are in the middle of it. I still refuse to vote for just one, as I don't like 99.9% of them.We arrived in the town. Here's a partial list of Prestige Classes which you could add to the poll. At some point, I hope D&D completely does away with the notion of Classes and goes to a Skill based system instead, because the current system is ridiculous. The number of different classes has been growing like an out-of-control virus since then. I wouldn't even mind if the class choices were just: Fighter, Cleric, Mage, Thief. I always saw sorcerers as a draw for the perennial underaged player: magic missile x4, flaming sphere x4, fireball x3. but all of the bonii of magic-users without the Big Book of Every-Eight-Hours and all those scribing material costs? Heh. If it was a racially-limited prestige (draconian or dragonkin), I could understand. On the flip side, I've -never- cottoned to the idea of Sorcererness. how else to pull off the Parlor Trick to end all parlor tricks than through flared cerulean sleeves? My illusionists have always worn blue, however.
Of course, one could argue that magic-users technically have access to much of the bounty of the class, glamers and illusions and such. The biggest bonus, in my opinion, is that the illusionist is readily accessible to the novice player in that most real-life prestidigitators can be classified as 'illusionists' rather than true magicians. where traditional magic-users fling fireballs and magic missiles to put the beat-down on 'em, the illusionist seeks to sway or mystify or mislead: meat and drink for the avid roleplayer.
but I have come to see that the Illusionist is actually, the way I see it, more of a conceptual way to run a traditional magic-user: paired with certain other classes, individually (ie: multiclassed gnome thief) or by companion (eg: support for melee folk and traditional casters), they can be the specialist-in-the-spotlight.
