Default Re: Why are Sages fair? Opinions wanted!

Just to be clear, I don't think there is any reason to nerf sages. That said, they're basically lazy academics who want to sit around in library lounge sofas all day. They're probably old and frail, and have a lifetime of resentment from being picked last for the sports teams in school.

...so, to be "nice and thematic", give them 6 HP, 15 base encumbrance, 2 AP, and a new weapon, "Feeble Slap" (-4 damage, -2 defense, -2 attack). And make them a little confused in chaotic situations - randomly swap the order of their spell scripts for combat. And last but not least, since forging smacks of "real work", give them a -50 forge bonus=)

0 strat moves might be interesting, too.

"Sir, Ermor is invading! Their ghoul hordes will eat you alive! We have to leave now!"

"Ehhh... what's that you say, sonny? Don't play soldier in the library, you hear? Now let me finish this book."
