Re: Nerdgasm

Do not try to strictly map Harry Potter wizards into AD&D. That way lies madness. It's worse than trying to build point-balanced Marvel and DC superheroes in Champions.

I do think you inflated Alexandra's stats a bit, though. ST 12? She's pretty athletic, but she's still a skinny teenage girl. Though I guess climbing Witches' Rock does suggest unusual upper body strength.

Oh, and unless Baldur's Gate lied to me, you could have specialist mages in 2nd edition. HAH!


It was probably one of those optional rules that no one ever used. Interpreting the 2nd edition Dungeon Master's Guide was an art and a science akin to rabbinical scholarship.
