Eberron rules.

It really does. There's a lot of great stuff in the setting, but my favorite is all stuff like the above. You take something from the game, develop it to a logical, but flawed outcome, and then stick a whole bunch of them next to each other to watch the sparks fly.

That's how you get magi-tech, and the great houses that rule them. That's how you get double-immortal elven assholes, and it's how you get more than one nation ruled (in various levels of secrecy) by powerful intelligent undead like vampires and liches.

I love how Durkon will overcome his obsessive passivity in a character arc where he's reduced to complete passivity.

16th or 17th, though probably 16th since a ninth-level spell would probably be more interesting at this point

He might have a bonus spell for high int. A single 8th-level bonus spell requires a 26 int, which isn't too hard to get since you can easily afford a +6 int headband by that level.

V's level 15, they have an additional spell slot from being a specialist wizard.

Any higher and they'd be able to cast Mind Blank 3 times a sitting, at least.

Mind Blank is abjuration, and V is an Evoker, so s/he can't prepare Mind Blank in the specialist slot.

I guess to be complete, V's either 16, or 15 with 26+ int or a bonus 8th level spell slot item.

Apparently, the forums figured out that V's level 16 with a 24 Int a while ago, by working backwards from the "in excess of 26 spells remaining" comment way back when.

Those people have a lot of free time.

I do enjoy how Rich maintains he doesn't know/care about the characters' exact sheets, even as he continues to bait his fan base with tidbits like this.

Yeah, he's on record as saying he keeps an eye on the thread to keep track of spell lists.

My personal theory is that he does have records, but he's willing to change them if it'd make the story better in some way, and trying to explain that to the :spergin: would cause even more grog than just saying he doesn't keep track.
