(This request doesn't seem like a change that requires LETO, so is this forum the right place to post it?)
So Lilibeza reached Level 9, and for her two 5th Level spell picks I chose Teleport and Animate Dead. Any players whose characters have interacted with Lilibeza are quite likely to know that she loathes Orlbar, regarding it as nothing more than an infectious, uncultured swine pit. So hey! New Teleport spell! It's time to teleport out of Orlbar and find a good place to take a long, warm bath!
"Such power as I've never seen! Kindly kiss my backside as I leave, peasants!"
"...what? Am I still here? How can the gods be so cruel?"
So her Teleport spell didn't work, even after I cast it three times. So I took Lili back to the OOC Entrance to check the notes and see if there's a mention of this.
...oh. Now you tell me. Clearly Teleport was a bad choice for one of my 5th Level spells.
To make matters worse, I only remembered after the fact that Lili already had an Animate Dead spell which she was saving for the specific purpose of learning the Animate Dead spell as soon as she reached Level 9! So picking Animate Dead as I leveled up was pretty dumb too.
I really carried the idiot ball tonight. Mea culpa.
So if it's okay with the DM team, could I erase my shame by having Lilibeza Hillington (on my Wids GSID) deleveled to Level 8 and releveled to Level 9, whenever a DM should catch me in-game? I would truly, madly appreciate it.

Okay, it's all sorted now. Thanks, Chilango! Energy Buffer and Lesser Planar Binding should help more than Teleport did. Now it's time for Lilibeza to go shopping for more spells in Secomber. (Didn't Kal mention that casting certain spells would result in Alignment shifts? I was so sure that Animate Dead and Lesser Planar Binding would be among those spells, but they're not. Ah, well. Lili will get her shiny Malefactor title yet!)

Nevermind! It turns out that it's not an "every time" thing; it's just an "every now and then" thing. (Don't worry, it's legitimate. Do you have any idea how many goblins, orcs, gnolls, bugbears, deer and rabbits have died at Minock's Hole over the years? There are bones all over the place!) Oh, cool! You can talk to the skeleton and tell it to equip this-and-that? This is the first server that's ever done that, at least in my experience. And "Equip a torch"? I want to meet the gamer who's going to take this mighty undead creature summoned by a 5th Level spell and make it the party's torch bearer. You have a crazy sense of humor, Kal!
