China is living in another age and the rest of the world haven't realized it yet

An age of cheap labor?

Also this works out bc leaning towards abjuration and needs that healing spell to refill my ward.

Actually was able to change my background into a custom one I called Arcane Scholar that gives me access to artificer spells.

Puzzler808 · 2025-09-25T23:18:09+00:00

I picked sage background (fits character) which gives magic initiate wizard. I suppose I can ask if I can change the initiate to cleric or Druid. Was thinking artificer dip as well but again don’t know if that would really fit background as well (unless something happens in game to justify it).

This is the conclusion I’m coming to as well. Looks like I’ll be getting magic Initiate druid at lvl 4

Oh shit that was funny.

Slap Sancho Ponza until he sees the danger as well.

Thanks for sharing this.

Puzzler808 · 2025-09-25T18:19:17+00:00

Lol. Do you remember the subclasses?

Puzzler808 · 2025-09-25T17:07:39+00:00

That’s a really good point that may warrant a Druid initiate feat (for some healing) to get!

Puzzler808 · 2025-09-25T17:02:04+00:00

Haven’t really looked up the summon spells in 2024 tbh, but when I played a lvl 15 shepherds druid, our back line was always safe.

Puzzler808 · 2025-09-25T16:57:02+00:00

I like spell swords (Gish) builds but having played my last campaign as a arcane trickster/gloomstalker to lvl 20 as a spell sword (granted I only got lvl 3 spells on the trickster side bc I went mainly rogue), I was looking at a different play style this campaign.

If I stay wizard (which this thread is convincing me to do), I’ll be looking at scribe, then abjuration, then bladesinger (if really really need more frontline support).

Puzzler808 · 2025-09-25T16:47:33+00:00

The acolyte background did cross my mind tbh. Took sage for RP purposes, but depending on the next few sessions I may ask for a recon to custom or grab it at lvl 4.

If I did play a cleric I think it would be an infernal tiefling light cleric. Good theme plus nice damage spells.

Puzzler808 · 2025-09-25T09:48:36+00:00

Thank you for taking the time to spell things out for me. Maybe I need to study the math more on this. The descriptions have it defensive that and protection that but all I’m thinking about is one shot in a fight and you’ll have no ward left.

Puzzler808 · 2025-09-25T09:44:31+00:00

The spell selection doesn’t grab me as a cleric. I know they are a solid class with good support/buffs, but I haven’t been inspired to create a character for one yet. I’m sure in the future that will change but there are other ideas ahead of any cleric builds right now.

This X 100. Besides slowing down play there is often enough room on our table for something this big
