Build Request La Deux - A Wizardess Summoner

Unread post by SharpGn2 »

A LA DEUX!

. . . Hello there!

This is a character idea I have for the server and would like to get a proper build in place prior to creating her in game. As I mentioned in my other post I just made (sorry for hitting you guys twice with this!!) This is my first time back to the server in give or take 6-7 years. I decided to tackle new character ideas, and get my feet wet whilst understanding the insane amount of custom content that has developed while I was gone . . . which is awesome!

In this particular case, I would like to develop a Halruaan Wizardess who has just arrived to Baldur's Gate. A member of a very very upper class family, the Jvianin's, who build skyships, she was cast aside for her slow speed in picking up the Arcane - not to a lack of intelligence, but because they pushed her in the wrong direction.

Before I continue, a few things on Halruaans,

1) At this point they completely shun Sorcerers - to the point that she would not have received the education I want her to have. With this in mind, Sorc is a no-go. Wizard it must be.

2) From what I've read, even Halruaans that develop outside of Halruaa tend to become pretty damn powerful and skillful in their execution of magic. I wouldn't mind seeing Arcane scholar in their somewhere (hint hint) to reflect this. I know that Thautermage (spelling) is probably going to be the focus here.

Goals of the character

1) Become acceptable in the Arcane - acceptable to her is 7th to 9th circle, so basically advance. She has an interest in summoning, hence why I want that to be the focus.

2) Pursue Knowledge - she is keen on learning all she can and is a total bookworm - I want her intelligence and certain Lores to skyrocket.

3) High Society - She wants to once again in the future engage with higher society, of what she is accustomed. In this regard, I am hoping to build some CHA and skills associated with it, to aide her (and have spells in her spellbook too!)

I hope this information is enough to get the creative juices working! Thank you for taking the time to read this!

This should give you a starting point, but feel free to make any changes. For instance at 18 instead of Craft Wand you could grab Improved Familiar. You could grab another epic spell and perhaps auto-quicken 0-1 by losing a couple points of INT. ESF: Conjuration, Augment Summoning and Thaumaturge will make your summons potent and your high INT will give you decent DCs on save or X spells. You could of course drop augment summoning for a SF: Illusion or Enchantment and take 4 levels of Archmage, such as W16/AM4/T5/AS5. There are lots of ways to take it and I recommend you read up on our Wiki classes section to determine how you want to take your character. Good luck and enjoy.
