Last night on D&D.

Last night on D&D.
Last night taught us 2 things.
If you only have 2 hit points. You never go looking for Giant Rats by yourself. And if you are a Wizard you need to be flexible when fighting a reanimated polar bear.

To that end. I would like to touch on something i talked about before my game started. That is Cantrips.

The first mention of cantrips really got me interested in playing a MU in D&D. I could finally be more than a Magical Multimeter. Sure a lot of it is useless in combat, or so the layman would have you think. But it finally added a much more magical aspect to a character that was toast as soon as a bandit drew a blade.

A MU that is well versed in cantrips is a MU worth babysitting.
