Very well. This will have taken her an hour of meditation, performed in her room while the others broke their fast in the common room.

Some of you may have read elsewhere that I've taken on the task of editing the Delving Deeper OD&D clone.

This is just a quick note to reassure you that I intend to keep running Hinterlands in the meanwhile. The pace might (or might not) slow up from time to time, but I have every intention of keeping this thing rolling.

Thanks all for your contributions -- some of you over more than a year of real time -- fantastic effort!

Who will be first to hit level 4??

;D

Whew! Glad to hear it. I'm really enjoying this game.

Waysoftheearth,

How does Pelenwin learn new spells. Must he go in to study at the great library or is there another way.

If you mean "how does he memorise a different spell from his existing repertoire?" then that is simply a matter of a daily meditation upon the spell book or scroll which will take one hour.

If you mean "How does he add a new spell to his repertoire?" then that is a matter of researching the new spell. Assuming he has access to the appropriate scriptures and tomes (i.e., a copy of the spell to be researched) and a peaceful place to conduct his meditations (i.e., a temple, abbey or nave) then dice rolls will determine exactly how many hours are required, as per Ulric and Highbough's research.

A templar cannot, however, invent new spells -- he can only study those that are pre-existing.

p.s. Now that Pelenwin is an Argimer (2nd level templar) with 15 wisdom he can memorise two 1st level spells each day.

Thanks, Waysoftheearth. Where could Pelenwin research spells be research spells. In the library or in the monastery?

The Temple of Thuul would be the ideal place to conduct his meditations. The Concourse library might also do, if Pelenwin can find or bring the material to be studied.

Just a heads up that I'll be traveling for the next two weeks with limited Internet access. If you want to blend Dorgan into the background for that period, fine by me.

Happy holidays to all!
