O, that is the last one I was expecting, but it also makes sense when you look back. In the end, character-wise, this is amazing, and I love it. But the gamer in me is screaming because of the only +1 in char making all the paladin spells week, but I will admit SMITE will be a very powerful tool. The funny thing is, mechanics-wise wise, he hasn't chosen his holy Oath that binds his power to tenants, and I don't think he ever will because Wizard LV 18 is way too good to pass up. Unless you are letting him get to 20+, where at that point, boons from the Seven Heavens will be needed. (Also Oath of the Ancients sounds right for his character if you are ignoring Cornerstone Wizard)

I do like the fine print that he added, just in case there is a way home. But I have a feeling that it's going to come into play in a way no one expected (Hi Yggdrasil). Well, I do have one thought of the way home ... all it needs is a wish on a ninth-pointed star. And maybe the help from a certain chaos god to move if caught in Limbo.

That Hydra is an EMBARRASSMENT to the mother of dragons. If she was there and not in the Nine Hells, I bet she would have killed it herself.

But I think it will be good to talk to the sisters about his realm's gods. ESPECIALLY Mystra or her old name Midnight. A mortal Human who ascended into godhood when the mother of magic sacrificed herself to save the weave.

LIKE GRANNY APPLE USED TO SAY

THE BEST DEFENSE IS TO KILL THE THING BEFORE IT EVEN GETS A TURN

I definitely did have the thought of the paladin due to the presence of the Oath, I just didn’t have any thoughts about it specifically.

I do agree with the choice though. Good Luck to Ignis on his Paladin-ing I wonder if he would take the 3rd level for an oath subclass, and which would he be?

I will say, however, that saying the paladin class has given cantrips is the same as saying what fighting style was chosen.

“Well I do have an oath of sorts I remember from my previous world that I think is pretty solid. I’ll just tweak it to be more inline with my own personal wishes.”

I bet it's going to be the green lantern one

damn, I guessed wrong. Anyway, I think Lucas should explain what he thinks happened during those 20 years to his familiar

Shit you right

US Dept of defense, green lantern corp, same thing really :P

Yeah mechanically speaking he very likely won't have an oath I only planned on doing a 2 level dip, but thematically he did swear on his soul, so I'm sure there'd be some dire consequences for breaking the oath

Level 18 wizard is definitely too strong to give up though for a level 3 subclass feature :P

Yeah, that’s understandable.

Wizard 18 also feels pretty good as a capstone, giving a 1st and 2nd level spell to cast at will like a cantrip is good, and picking a combination like Shield and Misty Step (or whatever Ignis uses most out of those 2 levels) sound really nice.

Not sure if anyone will check this without me actually uploading a chapter, but just wanted to say my daily upload streak ends today unfortunately. For the first time ever I am going to sleep with a chapter only 40% of the way done. I can usually slam it out before I go to bed, but I just keep getting distracted and now I'm passing out while typing.

Definitely will upload tomorrow, and it should be around 6-8k words since it'll basically be 1.5 chapters

“No, Your Grace. I, Ghaele Ignis Ferrum of the Natsume Clan, swear upon my very soul that I will support and protect the Princess of the Night, I will bear true faith and allegiance to the very same, and I will defend against all who oppose her, be they friend or for, I will bare my blade against this entire realm in her name. Hear ye all gathered here today, as I declare myself to exist purely as the sword and shield of Her Grace, Princess Luna Concordia, my Dark Maiden until the day I no longer exist in this realm.”

I think I get why so many words are wrong along the trail: spellcheck. Spellcheck is a handy tool, but if you're in a hurry to get your work out there sometimes you end up picking the wrong words and then you move on without noticing. You need a proofreader, and they need to go over the entire fic.
