Craft Wand
So at level 5 I can craft most of the major magic item types, and am taking the dwarven favored class bonus. I also have arcane builder for wondrous items to get a little extra out of them (making crafting of the road viable). In addition i have a valet familiar.
So you only get 2 hours of work done in a four hour work day for this, BUT, I can push that pretty hard:
(((((1000(base)+1000(dwarven favored class))*2(rushing))*3(valet familiar & hireling with cooperative))*1.25(wondrous item arcane builder))*.25(crafting while adventuring)) = 3750gp worth of wondrous items made a day while adventuring, more if I get a ring of sustenance and craft through the night.
I have 22 int, at level 5 I have a +4 int headband, so riding on 26 total int. I put this mainly towards craft skills, with Craft (Weapons), Craft (Armor), Craft (Jewelry), Craft (Clothing), Craft (Leather), and Craft (Alchemy) as my main ones.
We use the background skills system, so all my craft skills eat up 6 of my 13 skills per level. The rest go into knowledge skills, appraisal, spellcraft, and UMD. Knowledge Arcana, Religion, Nature, and Planes maxed, as they are the most common used.
Besides this I specialize in transmutation as a pure buffer with a bit of battlefield control. So, how terrible am I? Is this build something that would piss of GMs?
I've played wizard before, but this is my first hyper crafter. Most of the time I play an encounter ender transmuter/diviner wizard.

Welcome to Banished Quest!
You take the role of a young mage labeled a criminal by his people and cast out into the wider world. In the last thread you spooked a few grave robbers into serving your family and traveled through the spirit realm to return to your body.
It is currently the 24th of Svarthi, in the year 936 NH.

Notes:
Using names or trips in this quest is heavily discouraged. While it is impossible for me to prevent you from doing so, I ask that you not. I will also not count any votes made while using names or trips.
You passively wonder whether or not those warped lands will ever return to normal, somehow you doubt they will. The air there had seemed still, the wind did not stir the sands nor whistle through the arching pillars of black stone. An eerie silence blanketed the place, accompanied by an overwhelming sense of dread which seemed to weigh upon your chest despite your lack of physical form. It was an immense relief to escape its borders, and as you drift across the desert sands towards Nazir, you contemplate why you did not get the same sense of unease when you visited in your physical form to erect the cat spirit's shrine.
Lost in thought you soon find yourself approaching the city's walls without even realizing how far you've traveled. Curious that you felt so conscious and sure of yourself in that ancient tomb, yet here in lands not blanketed in corrupted vys you can barely keep yourself conscious and aware. In a way it's a blessing, time slips away from you with welcome rapidity when you can't both to keep track of who you are, but it's also concerning. Could it be a sign of the degradation of your physical form?
That thought drives you towards the palace with renewed haste. This late in the evening, the streets are abandoned save for the patrols of guardsmen through its streets. Much of the army is still camped outside the walls, what remains of it after the battle that is, but some soldiers have already left the city to return to their homes. These men are some of the very few to have faced a void beast and walked away from the encounter, it almost seems like a waste to let them simply slip away into obscurity.
(1/3)
You make it over the walls and through the city without incident, but the palace proves a slightly more daunting task. It practically glows with activity, even at this late hour. You think there might be some sort of celebration still going, as you spot a great mass of people in the courtyard. Dancers, jugglers, acrobats, indeed all manner of entertainers moving through a throng of well dressed men and women. Perhaps the local nobility, come to honor your brother's victory?
You fly around the side of the castle, in search of the window to your brother's solar. You feel Zahak's thoughts brush against yours, but they're indistinct. Flavored with tinges of memory and wisp of half-forgotten emotion. You think he's dreaming, and judging by the brief glimpse you're afforded it seems like a good dream. It's comforting to know that, even without your physical body, you can still communicate with Zahak should the need arise.
You find the solar soon enough, but slipping through the window you find it abandoned. Your body does not sit where you left it, and there is not a soul in sight. Frowning, you drift through the room and out the great wooden double doors. You suppose you were discovered, and dragged off somewhere upon discovery of your unconscious state. The most logical place to deposit your body would be your room, so that's the first place you resolve to check.
Before you even reach your own doorway, you can hear the voices of your companions engaged in heated argument. You pause outside the door to listen in, your curiosity getting the better of your judgment. “-brother! He's ruling in their father's stead, he'd be able to force the priest to keep Mik alive while he's off getting himself reduced to a gibbering idiot by the creatures of the void!”
(2/3)
That's Darzi's voice. To your surprise, it's Profectus who voices opposition to the idea. “Relax, Gun.” You think this is the first time you've ever heard someone use a shortening of Darzi's first name. “I'm sure he's fine. It hasn't even been a day yet, and yeah his pulse is weak but the same is true of anyone while they're asleep. I don't think that's any reason to go crashing through his brother's party demanding he drag the priest out of bed and force them to help Mik.”
You try to put your shoulder into the door to open it, but it seems in your own world you're far less physical than you were in the void. You pass straight through the wood, a strange sensation of nausea and dizziness momentarily overwhelming you. The conversation ceases immediately the eyes of your companions, Mortia, Fulvia, and Chrys included, turn towards you.
Darzi takes a few hesitant steps towards you, her head cocked to one side. “Mik?” She ask, but you don't respond. You just slip past her and through the doorway into your bedroom. Your body lies under the covers, head rested against a pillow. You'd almost think you were simply sleeping, were you not currently a disembodied spirit.

Can we just marvel, for a moment, that the Percy Jackson update allows you to import multiple companions and make them demigods?
I now have a bevy of demigod Sororitas. After Red is done I will have a bevy of Zendtradi demigod Sororitas.
This pleases me.
>>43708240
But that's heresy
What will the emprah think
What will they think when they figure out what the emprah will think
>>43708429
But anon.I'm their emprah now.
We are faced with 3 possibilities
1) <> is now the new colorless and colorless producing lands like painlands will be errated to reflect this fact.
2) <> is like half a new color and different than (1) and can only be produced by wastes/lands that specifically state they make <> which limits the lifetime of this type of mana to the Oath set.
3) <> reads as "<> can be payed with either (1) or <>", which would be a bridge between that two above possibilities but once again limits future use since you can't use <> as a symbol in a set that doesn't have a <> producing land which doesn't fit in every plane given that you need eldrazi to create Wastes.
Also, as pic shows, Wastes are a new basic land, not a new basic land type. There is no type.
>>43708180
It's not without precedence, as Snow lands are Basics. Bismuth has also been used in BfZ artwork involving Eldrazi, so it would fit the artistic direction. There's also been some evidence fluffwise that the Eldrazi aren't just destroying land, but rather re-purposing it to their own ends.
In terms of what <> represents, assuming that the spoilers are real (debatable), a cost of "8<><>" seems to imply that the new symbol does not denote a single colorless mana, but rather will be treated as a sixth "color" or type of mana. Similarly, the lack of reminder text in the card spoiled alongside "Wastes" suggests that this is not a case like Phyrexian mana that denotes an alternate cost.

Last thread:
>>43619826
The continuing adventures of an Anon, his phantom partner, and the mob that wants them dead(er).
Where we last left our heroes, Anon tried to pull a fast one on one of the ghost mafia's Shadowmen and ended up punched unconsciousness (and into a tree).
He awakens to find himself in a warehouse with a strange woman in a Chinese dress demanding he tell her everything about his investigation.
Being the resourceful guy he is, Anon managed to slip his bonds and fight back. After an intense struggle, he seems to have gotten the better of the strange woman--who may or may not be of the fae.
But hey, at least Anon is pretty sure she isn't a ghost. That's some form of progress, isn't it?
Catherine sits across from you on a wooden crate, trying not to seem as tired as really is in front of you.
"I'll fetch your things for you." She makes a motion with her fingers and a few feet in front of you a glob of shadows bubbles out of the air. Catherine flinches as she realizes what she's doing and stops. The shadows flicker and fade away.
"I'm sorry. I don't want you thinking I'm trying anything...underhanded. Would you mind if I summoned an extension to fetch your things?"
DO WE MIND?
Your intuition tells you that Catherine is trying to stall for...something. Something that might give her an edge over you. Could she be trying to find an excuse to summon up her shadows? But maybe that isn't what she's waiting for...
You notice the shadowed corners of the warehouse are...throbbing...slow and steady like a sleeping heartbeat. You might want to ASK CATHERINE about that.
Besides that, feel free to ASK CATHERINE about anything, including what she knows about the ghost mafia and Sarah and what the "System" is.
She might not be too forthcoming with the answers though...

And remember Morke and Holden are Liars.
>>43700783
I've seen enough of it to know that there's a good reason the stereotype exists, but also enough to tell the difference between somebody who's just looking for a bit more representation or some other perfectly fair objection and some sociopath screaming death threats at expecting mothers for wondering what gender their unborn child will be.
>>43701438
>What were the coolest manses and cities you had in your games?
Once had a manse that was several miles underground and literally hewn into the rock rather than being a discrete building.

Haha what?

I've seen enough mouthshit from the people preaching the stereotype to know it isn't based on anything they've seen. They like to call people subhuman over pretty much anything, from having the wrong opinion about a single issue to using the wrong punctuation on a sentence to being angry that they call people subhuman.
