Yep, a new thread. This one works similar to my
Lone Wolf thread, only this time, you're Grey Star, a Shianti wizard in the very southern part of the continent of Magnamund. It's the same world as Lone Wolf, but very far from Sommerlund this time around

The Grey Star series is contemporaneous with Lone Wolf, so I figure that I should introduce it to all of you. It only has 4 books, although they're pretty tough and tricky toward the beginning!
[
Of The Coming of Grey Star] and [
The Story So Far] The gist of it is that you are Grey Star, a human who was rescued by the Shianti, a.k.a. the Ancients. You were trained in wizardry. The humans in that part of Magnamund are slaves to the Wytch-King of Shadaki, and Grey Star must go to the Daziarn plane to get the Moonstone to save his people. His first goal is finding the Kundi, a lost race who can see Shadow Gates that go to the Daziarn.
This time around, we have 3 numerical stats. Combat Skill and Endurance work like they do in Lone Wolf, but we also now have Willpower, which is magical energy, like MP in electronic RPG systems. Willpower, strangely, has no upper bound. It's used to both perform magic and multiply enemy damage when using our weapon, the Wizard's Staff.
Our random initial scores are:
CS: 12 (a high CS isn't quite as important in this game, at least)
WP: 25
EP: 25/25
[
Magical Powers] There are 7 Magical Powers to choose from, of which Grey Star now knows 5. They are:
Sorcery - Uses a lot of WP, but can create force fields to block doors, move objects, etc.
Enchantment - Can charm other creatures.
Elementalism - Can use the powers of Earth, Air, Fire, and Water.
Alchemy - Can create magical potions. This needs no WP.
Prophecy - Can tell the future.
Psychomancy - Gathers information about things that Grey Star touches.
Evocation - Can talk to the dead, but possibly at the cost of a wizard's life!
You may notice that Grey Star has no direct equivalent of Lone Wolf's Healing ability

Select the 5 Magical Powers you want.
