nerd test… PASS 0

what some D&D website said about me.
_____________

I Am A: True Neutral Human Druid/Sorcerer (2nd/2nd Level)

02

Ability Scores:
Strength-15
Dexterity-16
Constitution-14
Intelligence-17
Wisdom-11
Charisma-10

Alignment:
True Neutral A true neutral character does what seems to be a good idea. He doesn’t feel strongly one way or the other when it comes to good vs. evil or law vs. chaos. Most true neutral characters exhibit a lack of conviction or bias rather than a commitment to neutrality. Such a character thinks of good as better than evil after all, he would rather have good neighbors and rulers than evil ones. Still, he’s not personally committed to upholding good in any abstract or universal way. Some true neutral characters, on the other hand, commit themselves philosophically to neutrality. They see good, evil, law, and chaos as prejudices and dangerous extremes. They advocate the middle way of neutrality as the best, most balanced road in the long run. True neutral is the best alignment you can be because it means you act naturally, without prejudice or compulsion. However, true neutral can be a dangerous alignment because it represents apathy, indifference, and a lack of conviction.

Race:
Humans are the most adaptable of the common races. Short generations and a penchant for migration and conquest have made them physically diverse as well. Humans are often unorthodox in their dress, sporting unusual hairstyles, fanciful clothes, tattoos, and the like.

Primary Class:
Druids gain power not by ruling nature but by being at one with it. They hate the unnatural, including aberrations or undead, and destroy them where possible. Druids receive divine spells from nature, not the gods, and can gain an array of powers as they gain experience, including the ability to take the shapes of animals. The weapons and armor of a druid are restricted by their traditional oaths, not simply training. A druid’s Wisdom score should be high, as this determines the maximum spell level that they can cast.

Secondary Class:
Sorcerers are arcane spellcasters who manipulate magic energy with imagination and talent rather than studious discipline. They have no books, no mentors, no theories just raw power that they direct at will. Sorcerers know fewer spells than wizards do and acquire them more slowly, but they can cast individual spells more often and have no need to prepare their incantations ahead of time. Also unlike wizards, sorcerers cannot specialize in a school of magic. Since sorcerers gain their powers without undergoing the years of rigorous study that wizards go through, they have more time to learn fighting skills and are proficient with simple weapons. Charisma is very important for sorcerers; the higher their value in this ability, the higher the spell level they can cast.

oi oi 0

i’m once again in the united states. however, i’m never going to be reflective about traveling on this blog, so don’t hold your breath. i’d much rather return to the norm. so, without further delay…

item!
my buddy tyler is watching “An American Tale” off of youtube.com right now. i had no idea, as a small child, that this movie was full of so much social commentary. like, stuff they write about in grad programs.

item!
over the past two point five months, i’ve read more than i’ve ever read. on average, i finished a book every 12 days. i’m not sure if it was due to the relaxed nature of my traveling, or i’m going through some sort of literacy O.D. due to my not having money (my reason being that books are like paying for one movie, but that movie takes about two weeks to watch).

regardless, here are some picks:

  • American Gods; Neil Gaiman
  • Extremely Loud/Incredibly Close; Jonathan Saffron Foer
  • More Information Than You Require; Jon Hodgman
  • I Am Legend; Richard Matheson
  • Company of Liars; Karen Maitland
  • The Life of Pi; Yann Martel

i’m a novel reader. so keep that in mind.

item!
i really can’t get over how great of a city Glasgow is. in filling some in on my travels, i keep coming back to it.

equ

item!
mean, median, and mode. remember it.
