Oh, was that what was doing it? I was trying to figure that out, but to no success. Thanks

Actually, if I recall correctly, Midnight was only trying to cast a levitate spell. Judging by the fact that it turned up a dragon shows you how shaky the magic was during the Time of Troubles.

New question: How many would there be in a drow excursion to Undermountain, and what would they be carrying?

Oh, my little Wyrm, you call yourself a Sage. Magical Items worked to a degree. They were unpredictable, and tended to end short, and unpleasently. You really need to consult my shelves. Call me, and we will set up a date.

Yes, yes, I know that. Obviously, or else I wouldn't have posted this thread. I needed more specific information though, things that I don't remember from the Avatar trilogy -- otherwise I would have asked to borrow your copies.

I know it's hard to think with all those muscles squeezing your brain, though, so I won't hold it against you . . . .

Dragon of Justice has a gleam in his eye as he considers a drow incursion. Blood. Gore. More blood. Twould be . . .interesting. But how many is a good question. Which city of drow would be sending warriors? Or is it a family? Or, perhaps better yet, is it a plot of Jaraxle? (spelling? been a while since I read his name.)

And then more blood.

Ah, I need a beer. This is a thirsty vison.

New question!

What sort of spells would a ranger have?

Why would the ranger have spells? Innate abilities? Or things picked up along life's travels? It would be strange to see a ranger with magic that didn't somehow relate to his . . .er. .calling. Things like spells relating to animals, perhaps a silence spell, shapeshifting. These I can see. Throwing fireballs, not so much.

Once again, you reply to a question of mine without contributing. For your information, I know ranger are not like mages. As far as I can tell, the are to druids like paladins are to clerics. However, I wanted to know what spells they would have, as well as what level they would get them. Satisfied, O Big Brother?

The easy answer would be: look it up in the player's handbook... though you've admitted to not having played the game. Rangers cast spells similar to druids, most are plant or animal related. I can't recall of the top of my head when a ranger can start casting divine spells, but I believe it is similar to the paladin. (someone on-line with a PHB handy?)

Great Reader Bookwyrm,

Here is an excellent source: http://forgottenrealms.wikia.com/wiki/Time_of_Troubles

Best regards,

And second, how were magical items (i.e., enchanted objects working on a passive level like a ring of protection, or on an active level like a wand of fire) affected?

I'm just letting people know that I'm likely to ask other questions soon. Thanks.
