Name: SibbicaiLogin ID: silverbladesclass: WizardCurrent level: 20race: humanDiety: LucindaOriginal submission: http://layonara.com/threads/10163783-new-character-submission-sibbicai-drelmSubmittal for adding 2nd class SpellswordSo I continued to explore the lands and help those who needed it. Offering what services I was capable of for those in need. As I grew in knowledge i also grew in power over my spells with lucindas blessing. In time I was allowed entry into the Angels guild to help create scrolls for guild and in return they would help me along in my dreams of becoming a trader like my parents. Unlike my parents who traded in mostly mundane items i wished to become a trader in in fine gems both magical and non-magical in nature. With the help of the guild my skills flourished. Scribing, gem cutting and polishing, enchanting, alchemy. I trained myself to polish emeralds with ease. These skills were both a benefit to the guild of which I am indebted to and myself.I would return home often, as the guild hall is not far from home, making sure my parents were taken care of. My travels brought riches so I made sure they had no need.  As I grew in age I grew in power as I was always showing mother a new spell that I had learned or ones that I had recently scribed. Gems that I had polished and enchanted or bottles or potions that I had made. I would always point out that these were not a benefit to me but to those that had put me in charge or carrying on the business of the guild and keeping things in order at the guild hall.I would often tell of great exploits were I had traveled to far away lands even to the vast Deep to gather diamonds.  As I grew my father would continue to instruct me in different weapons besides the staff and the crossbow. Eventually my father showed me a mightly greatsword that was extremely deadly because it was a Mecurial blade. I took an intrest with it, perhaps becuase of it deadly nature and  Iwanted something more powerful than my now flimsy staff. It had served me in my younger days, but now that Iwas able to weild greater spells and had obtained magical devices that made me capable of weilding such a weapon, I only needed training in its use. Father was more than eager to show me.  it took me a few years to learn its use and how to handle its mighty weight but I had managed it. I give the credit to Lucinda becuase it is her magic that made it all possible once again. I eventually had a great Iron mecurial greatsword crafted by the guild. I only wanted Iron nothing more, becuase I would recieve the blessings of Lucinda to make it even more magical, adding to its already potent acidic blade.  It is this sword that had carried many a foe to their deaths after a fiery ball was sent their way or flaming missiles took most of thier health and the mighty blade consumed their remaining life.  Charging into battle had become a way of practice for me for it was Lucinda's magic that was protecting this soldier or hers, and I felt her magic surround me in its protections in every way as I faced down each remaining fow with my blade.As time grew I would often ask my parents on battle tactics of situations that I had experienced in my travels. My mother would offer her insight using her spells to best advantage in situations with groups or alone. While my father would show me how best to employ my weapon to offer defensive and offensive advantages of how the weapon is weilded. I would tell great stories of me and my companion summons fighting side by side cleaving through enemies with little use of spells outside of Her Lady's protections that surrounded me and how Her magics allowed me to weild this mighty sword in battle and protected me from the enemies  blows as the spells misdirected thier once fatal blows. This made my father smile, seeing his son at last weilding a might sword.As time grew on it was my father that had suggested I wear something more fitting for a warrior and suggest I wear armors.  He had recognized Lucindas magic in making me able to weild a sword, why could I not also wear armor and cast magic. My mother had heard stories of heroic spellweaving battle scarred warriors, capable of wearing armor and able to cast spells with ease. She was quick to point out this was possible with much training and discipline, without having to resort to a metamagic feat.I must say I failed at casting more often than I succeeded in the beginning, while wearing even simple leathers, but with my mothers instruction and skill with magic she help me overcome my failures and turned more of them into successes. My father instructed my on all the various armor types and how best to get in and out of them quickly, fasteners and straps and buckles. He explained each armors strength and weakness. How to face your enemy with only a sword and no shield to offer the best protection should my spells fail based on the type of armor I am wearing. While mother went int othe best protection spells to cast on warriors and on oneself during close combat battles, and those to cast before charging into battle to best weaken the enemies and strike fear into thier hearts before charging into battle.As I tried casting in the different armor types I had a tough time with it. The armor was heavy and hindered my csting. weighing on my shoulders, it made it hard to freely move my arms as I had always done so easily wearing simple robes. Some of the most heavy armors made it nearly impossible to cast without having to relearn the proper movement for the spell. But as I learned when I was young attempting to cast spell for the first time and preserve them to memory. It takes practice and patience.I started with the simplest of spells, the familar cantrips, something that di not cause much damage should it misfire or tax my strength too much when I failed. Eventually I had managed to cast wearing the simplest of armors while casting the simplest of spells. With much patience and practice I know I can go on the learn even greater things.// As a side not in regards to his progression towards a Spellsword, he has a weapon proficiency Exotic since lvl 16. Dropping use of the staff and the x-bow in favor of the greatsword since. This progression is not a class change but more of a class progression to continue on a path that I feel he has been on since aquiring the Exotic proficiency.  I realize this does not meet the requirement of two  weeks of character development logs as per the requirement, but I could have easily split this character development story above into several weeks. Please see fit to excuse the 2 week of logs in light of the character development here.

Hello silverblades,This request would ordinarily be approved for a CDQ rather than the asked for CDT entries. Due to the limited amount of GMs and GM time, I am investigating options for you. Also, do you have any kind of CDT for this character? Even if it hasn't been contributed to lately, I'd still possibly find something helpful for the request.Thanks in advance for your patience,~row

Just one entry I made shortly after I started with him.  I doubt I can get this thread to work, cant cut and paste, so heres the written out link.http://layonara.com/chardev/master-sibbicai-trader-explorer-mage-warrior Date of this entry is june 21  2016 Also I just recently noticed the  prereqs of spellsword having weapon proficiencies and all armor type proficiencies, I misread it and thought these were bonus' to class, not requirements. With that being said I would also like to continue my submission for PrC Spellsword and add fighter as a class split. I doubt Ill ever make it to see spellsword after five levels of fighter though, especially this late in the game.  

Rowana:
Hi Silverblades,Since you didn't up date the original thread I am writing to confirm. Are you now applying for a second AND third class for sibbicai? And you would like to have both of them under the condition of no CDT requirements, is that correct?~row
