Make sure you retain Illusion and Abjuration.

With those, you'll be fine.

If you have more specific problems, I'll be happy to help you.

Red wizards can choose which their 2nd prohibited school will be. This gives more options to the character concept
Mendel - Ranger, Harper, Villi | Tahlaer of the High Forest | Nikos Berenicus - Initiate of the Mirari | Efialtes Rodius - Blood Magus | Olaf Garaeif - Dwarven Slayer

They'll tell you. Those who never played one cannot advise you better than those who are currently playing one. :D

Those who never played one or those who arent in the Thayan guild. Two different things. ;)

I have done both. See "Ishamael Nymar" for reference.

And I play wizard quite well, regardless of the build.

Taking advice from me is probably a good idea, mate.

I likely have some for you, too :lol:

I can piss on you all from three streets away easily enough, when wizards are concerned.

Maybe starting it wasn't such a good idea :)

Since you started, you should probably follow your own advice :P.

Available to "finish" at your convenience, btw, even though I didn't start.

Never been able to resist a good, old-fashioned challenge.
