A Wizard That Is A Rock: Player Advice

Have the fighter throw you until you get resurrected.

Learn to cast without them and become a dungeon core. As a stone your bliff should be pretty high, see if you can bluff roll it and cast as if you already used the verbal and hand gestures.

Or have the fighter get someone to carve you into a doll and cast golem on you.

>>53869320
Can you make a golem out of something that's already infused with magic?
If not, you could just have the fighter pay some street urchin to smash the stone "killing" you and allowing you to take over their body

>>53869381
But they'd need to be able to cast the necessary spell first.

>>53869381
Does telekinesis require verbal or hand gestures?

I think low level eizards get that mixed bag of tricks spell, the one that lets you change colors of stuff, make rainbows, turn liquids into other liquids.

Maybe use it and start a cult. Barring that I say study up on eschew materials or see if you could land yourself in a mages guild. Chances are you would learn some neat stuff and eventually blow up, they always blow up eventually.

>>53868855
I think you need the help of a powerful wizard.

But can you see?

>>53869439
Telekinesis requires both verbal and somatic, I think prestidigitation requires both as well.
Maybe hire a cleric to do Thaumaturgy stuff for him

>>53868855
I don't want to tell you how to play and if you're okay with it and it makes the game fun (I can sort of see that) - and it obviously avoids PvP conflict (I can definitely see that) - but surely in the circumstances you outlined, the fighter killed you? I mean, if he had hit you with a sword I assume you wouldn't get to possess the sword?

>>53872833
Yeah, this was my first reaction after reading the OP.

>>53868855
What edition?

Yes. Don't ask me how, I don't understand it yet myself. One of those things to figure out.

>>53873248
2nd.

>>53872833
>>53872938
My understanding on the issue is that it didn't count because the fighter caused my death entirely by accident. He didn't mean to kill me, or to break the pillar - he wasn't even looking at my direction at the time.

Maybe if I'd thought about it on that precise moment I could've tried to possess him, but since I didn't, the spell just defaulted on the rock. Magic's weird like that.

But yes, I'm having a lot of fun, thanks for asking.

Awesome, that's what counts.

What do you think happens if they use your stone chip as the heart of a stone golem?

Since it's 2e you can't use subtle casting I think, which would solve all your problems. Magic Mouth doesn't seem to allow casting either, though you could see if your dm would allow it to allow you to cast spells with it since you are a sentient rock instead of a non sentient rock.


>have another wizard cast pebble to boulder on you
>then cast polymorph to turn you into a statue
>then cast magic mouth to have a movable mouth
From there figure out what spells would allow you to, well, actually move.

Alternatively have a wizard transmute you from normal rock to ringing (sonorous) rock, then see if he can't make a spell to make the ringing noise you make when they bang on you count as verbal casting. Then all your allies gotta do is bang on you to let you cast spells.

>>53874079
Dunno. Worth a shot.

We'll need to either fix the one we wrecked or find a whole new one, though, but no one ever said magic was easy.
