Tywin always wanted the name Lannister to mean something again. 🤷♂️Which is impressive... to be known for nothing better than gossip rag material. But everywhere.
Spontaneous Divination is a great choice for him. Mia Netcatcher has that one, too. He doesn't need a crafting feat at 5th level like our standard Wizard students.Build suggestions for Samwell Tarly:
- Generalist Wizard
- Spontaneous Divination ACF at level 5 (replaces level 5 bonus feat)
- This is amazing versatility, and if you're not rising above level 5 it's impossible to find a better front-loaded PrC.
- Impromptu Metamagic ACF (replaces familiar)
- 4 free Extends a day is great at CL 5. I hesitated between Extend and Silent, but Extend is useful if he intends to self-buff somehow.
- Feats: Skill Focus (Knowledge (arcana)) + Extend Spell + Invisible Spell + Alacritous Cogitation + 2 Flaws + Scribe Scroll (B) at level 1, Fiery Burst at level 3
- This feat selection opens Loremaster if he ever manages to rise above level 5. It's also good for a versatile generalist: discreet spells as needed, Alacritous Cogitation to cover for a weird emergency, Fiery Burst for combat to impress his father and fit with the latest interlude.
Eh, I wouldn't expect Randyl to be generous with Samwell. He's too much of an ass for that.@Goldfish, are we paying to kit him out, or is his father expected to do it?
I'm not too sure why we'd kit him out (IIRC he's not actually working for us or anything, he's just our ward to score political points with Tarly and because we felt bad for him). Or is kitting out our wards something we do even if we don't expect to turn them into agents later? If so, then I suggest giving him a handy haversack too.
We are not turning him into our loyal minion?@Goldfish, are we paying to kit him out, or is his father expected to do it?

He'll be loyal, but will he be useful? Right now he's a mageling among others, who's unlikely to level higher. Eventually he'll be an extra loyal Lord, but not of an especially important/powerful place.We are not turning him into our loyal minion?
This concept makes no sense to me.
I have hopes that he will level further and that we can talk him into having Dickon inherit in his stead.He'll be loyal, but will he be useful?

We're not picky about minion power levels. That's discriminatory!He'll be loyal, but will he be useful? Right now he's a mageling among others, who's unlikely to level higher. Eventually he'll be an extra loyal Lord, but not of an especially important/powerful place.
Same here. He'd be wasted as a lordling.I have hopes that he will level further and that we can talk him into having Dickon inherit in his stead.
Still not over Dickon tbh. Between Elmo and Kermit, I swear GRRM has just been trolling us all this time.
Half the reason I like to use obscure languages to name my characters is that I can use troll names, like naming someone "Traitor McBackstab" or "Unimportant Character".Still not over Dickon tbh. Between Elmo and Kermit, I swear GRRM has just been trolling us all this time.
egoo please write a note to explicitly give Samwell Tarly a mind Blank ring for the RA.
