spread out across the multiverse like pearls sewn into lace. Not all of them are <i>real</i>, though.<br /> <br /> <b>Reality and Unreality</b><br /> 'Realness' is a property of the universe, like time or matter. Some things are real (like dragons), some are unreal (like illusions or gremlins), and most things fall somewhere in the middle (humans are about 80% real).<br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibrutvOZGPb4LzLAv3jXN-I11rSTYjL7NzhHbxBAowlMiD417sdFK84qKlkdSq0fDGhLsuSkdYCfyFFVI4Dnkh0VPjx1Eajzw4q2pPHNwF7E9LWjO6t-Wxsm4dJyYZELijZBT6gA_2emc/s1600/illusions+of+grandeur.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="530" data-original-width="663" height="255" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibrutvOZGPb4LzLAv3jXN-I11rSTYjL7NzhHbxBAowlMiD417sdFK84qKlkdSq0fDGhLsuSkdYCfyFFVI4Dnkh0VPjx1Eajzw4q2pPHNwF7E9LWjO6t-Wxsm4dJyYZELijZBT6gA_2emc/s320/illusions+of+grandeur.jpg" width="320" /></a></div> Unreal things can have all the other properties, such as mass, inertia, shape, although frequently they are lacking one or more of those things (Real things must have ALL the properties of Realness, while Unreal things are less fettered). But they are unstable, they flicker, warp, and dissolve. Few unreal things last more than a day, more often they pop as soon as they would undergo a change, since there is nothing to anchor their existence through such an experience.<br /> <br /> Every time you flip a coin, turn left instead of right, you create another iteration of the universe where the other outcome occurred. But none of those are <i>real. </i>There is only finite energy, finite information to 'render' and maintain all of the unused versions of a path.<i> </i>All around the central causality, the world we all experience, there are soap-bubble like fragments of probability; jam-packed and nearly solid near the centre, and then spreading out into misty shards as you get into less plausible 'what-ifs'. The Material Worlds hurtle through non-existence, pulling the possible into being, dragging the improbable in their wake like smoke, before discarding the impossible back into the void.<br /> <br /> But all those little scraps of unreality have to go <i>somewhere</i>.<br /> <br /> <b>Overmorrow & Ereyester</b><br /> You can walk out into the shoals and sandbars of realness, wander through the might-bes and might-have-beens. Soothsaying techniques use this to a limited extent, looking out across this archipelago by flattening out a map sketched in guts or bones or runes or cards. But with the right twist of magic, you can step out of This Place, and into one of the side corridors. You can even go there physically, unlike the purely psychological landscape of the Dreaming. You might not even notice when you step over the border.<br /><br />The near places are very similar to your own. You can see what might have happened if you'd made a different choice. You can peek into the room ahead of you, to see what lurks there. You can bring a little bit of that timeline back with you, with the right magic, for a little. As you get further away, specific iterations get harder to find. The bubble-realities further out start to warp and get weird, merge into each other and dissolve.<br /> <br /> If you go far enough, by the right roads, you might step off the islands and into another kingdom. The land of Overmorrow lies in the future, east of the sun. Ereyester lies in the past, west of the moon. These are lands apart, gathered up from the fragments of cast off timelines, like the shell of a caddisfly nymph<br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiSvu0EUWIfLpVSbButCscAVs5LC6dIz56Ci0vYlkEKER89H9M2vX3vLoJMMKPYTPokqMIu7ArTwWe0WfYiqAnj4W7kuYnle1JwoXfZ42gL5f6vgu9LLkcB2NEFCmjqIOkwnB-xL1zxkqw/s1600/image_18.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="186" data-original-width="480" height="124" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiSvu0EUWIfLpVSbButCscAVs5LC6dIz56Ci0vYlkEKER89H9M2vX3vLoJMMKPYTPokqMIu7ArTwWe0WfYiqAnj4W7kuYnle1JwoXfZ42gL5f6vgu9LLkcB2NEFCmjqIOkwnB-xL1zxkqw/s320/image_18.png" width="320" /></a></div> <br /> Over the eons, peoples have settled these timelost realms, fleeing into unreality when their own worlds fell into shadow. These are the Elves, Gnomes, and other Fey folk- as well as the Raksha, the true fae, who are children of Unreality itself, and the destroyed world they fled the nonexistent one. <br /> <br /> Not all realms have peoples wise enough to know the Ways, hidden behind mirrors and across streams, and not all who can find the Ways survive their wanderings. But of those who do, many make the journey across the Long Earth, and find their way to the realms of <a href="https://roseandkingfisher.blogspot.com/2018/02/worlds-of-creation-ii.html" target="_blank">Annwn</a>.<br /> <br /> <b>The Abyss</b><br /> Throughout the eons, the legions of demons, voracious monsters who gnaw on the fabric of reality, have boiled out of their dimensions and destroyed world after world. Scholars believe there were once thousands, perhaps millions, but now there are <a href="https://roseandkingfisher.blogspot.com/2018/02/the-worlds-of-creation-i.html" target="_blank">only five</a>- and of those, two are unreality-scoured wastelands. Perhaps there are more, but they are lost in the mists.<br /> <br /> The Abyss, once crafted as a prison, constantly grows by the hunger of these monsters, pushing ever outward, chipping at the roof of hell.<br /> <br /> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgpV577XBjGQWLfaG0qcwxr7xX9e-v0G35L5PJRsKJkKAoYz6VJhIJSErINPg55kdGK1dmoNrGXaW4zkdLDWIMGPWmRxw05bMjgIfm3k0nA-fiRIEkHbQPZq8nrvPeVbpJCEjvRAIfjrk/s1600/stepper.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><br /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgpV577XBjGQWLfaG0qcwxr7xX9e-v0G35L5PJRsKJkKAoYz6VJhIJSErINPg55kdGK1dmoNrGXaW4zkdLDWIMGPWmRxw05bMjgIfm3k0nA-fiRIEkHbQPZq8nrvPeVbpJCEjvRAIfjrk/s1600/stepper.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="480" data-original-width="640" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgpV577XBjGQWLfaG0qcwxr7xX9e-v0G35L5PJRsKJkKAoYz6VJhIJSErINPg55kdGK1dmoNrGXaW4zkdLDWIMGPWmRxw05bMjgIfm3k0nA-fiRIEkHbQPZq8nrvPeVbpJCEjvRAIfjrk/s320/stepper.jpg" width="320" /></a><br /> <b>The Long Earth</b><br /> Between the five known Material worlds lies a path. A twisting and changing chain, but one that can <br /> be walked by those with the right skill. Called the Green by some, for all of these mayfly worlds have never seen the axe or the sickle. While the worlds come and go, the trees seem to have a wisdom and a Reality all of their own, persisting between iterations, growing strong alongside the path the runs through the Great Forest between worlds. It is along these ways that the elves first walked, when they made their way to Annwn.<br /> <br /> <b>the Dreaming</b><br /> There is only one Dreaming. All the little realities connect to it. There might be a million, a billion iterations of you, but you only ever have one dream. Why do you think it sometimes seems like, when you dream, your memories of your waking life seem to belong to somebody else? <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> <span class='post-author vcard'> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> at <meta content='http://roseandkingfisher.blogspot.com/2018/11/faerie-and-long-earth.html' itemprop='url'/> <a class='timestamp-link' href='https://roseandkingfisher.blogspot.com/2018/11/faerie-and-long-earth.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' itemprop='datePublished' title='2018-11-21T08:38:00-08:00'>November 21, 2018</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='https://roseandkingfisher.blogspot.com/2018/11/faerie-and-long-earth.html#comment-form' onclick=''> No comments: </a> </span> <span class='post-icons'> <span class='item-control blog-admin pid-798178966'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=5758057333660224874&postID=7987314983842236171&from=pencil' title='Edit Post'> <img alt='' class='icon-action' height='18' src='https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif' width='18'/> </a> </span> </span> <div class='post-share-buttons goog-inline-block'> <a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-email' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=5758057333660224874&postID=7987314983842236171&target=email' target='_blank' title='Email This'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Email This</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-blog' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=5758057333660224874&postID=7987314983842236171&target=blog' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=270,width=475"); return false;' target='_blank' title='BlogThis!'><span class='share-button-link-text'>BlogThis!</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-twitter' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=5758057333660224874&postID=7987314983842236171&target=twitter' target='_blank' title='Share to X'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to X</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-facebook' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=5758057333660224874&postID=7987314983842236171&target=facebook' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=430,width=640"); return false;' target='_blank' title='Share to Facebook'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to Facebook</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-pinterest' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=5758057333660224874&postID=7987314983842236171&target=pinterest' target='_blank' title='Share to Pinterest'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to Pinterest</span></a> </div> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-2'> <span class='post-labels'> Labels: <a href='https://roseandkingfisher.blogspot.com/search/label/world%20building' rel='tag'>world building</a> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-3'> <span class='post-location'> </span> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div></div> <div class="date-outer"> <h2 class='date-header'><span>Monday, 19 November 2018</span></h2> <div class="date-posts"> <div class='post-outer'> <div class='post hentry uncustomized-post-template' itemprop='blogPost' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/BlogPosting'> <meta content='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2K67Fn5lXuGGMgjfdCdcl6HEuV1camynRS2CnUuDWPTZQiWDhsdGwL9ex2ceo0cKon33RUCzkw4LW_JON2QLCZ8mwfJpsnefNrr4EWMAVw7QNx1khjFwyHO7lWIWuWXbOE-4a4rYISAE/s320/math+meme.jpg' itemprop='image_url'/> <meta content='5758057333660224874' itemprop='blogId'/> <meta content='1032542656862715188' itemprop='postId'/> <a name='1032542656862715188'></a> <h3 class='post-title entry-title' itemprop='name'> <a href='https://roseandkingfisher.blogspot.com/2018/11/alignment-languages-redux.html'>Alignment Languages Redux</a> </h3> <div class='post-header'> <div class='post-header-line-1'></div> </div> <div class='post-body entry-content' id='post-body-1032542656862715188' itemprop='description articleBody'> I like <a href="http://jrients.blogspot.com/2008/11/making-sense-of-alignment-languages.html" target="_blank">alignment languages.</a><br /> <br /> There, I said it.

But let's expand on this. <br /> <br /> <b>Abati </b>is 'Neutral' with a capital '<b>N</b>'- that is, it's a 'natural' language, in the sense of natural philosophy. It springs up everywhere, like norse runes, just lying around in the patterns of sticks on the ground, in the flight of birds, in the way the river carves the landscape. It's inscribed on every atom of the universe, like the ten commandments on a slab of stone. There are many different varieties, based on the biology and culture of the interpreter (because that's what speakers essentially are- they're speaking a language that already existed). The 'elemental languages' <b>Terran, Ignan, Aquan, </b>and <b>Auran </b>are non-human forms of this language.<br /> How to describe it spoken: to non-speakers, it sounds familiar, like maybe you've heard it every day of your life and just can't quite remember. It feels like if you just concentrated hard enough, you could figure it out- and in fact, sufficiently 'mystically attuned' characters might be able to make a concentration or meditation-type check to grasp a few key words or the gist of a sentence. However, it takes a lifetime to unravel the full language, and there's always more to learn. <br /> Because of this, and because of the language's universal nature, many speakers develop inflections, vocabularies, and whole dialects of the language, which reflect their own nature and being. Most of the time, this is just an accent, but in it's extreme form this gives rise to <b><i>Alignment Languages.</i></b><br /> <br /> <br /> <b><span style="font-size: large;">Cosmic good and evil:</span> </b>imagine if the question of whether you were a good person wasn't simply a measure of ethics. If the nature of a person was stamped indelibly on a person's soul, for anyone with wise enough eyes to read. Where, in extreme cases, not only the persons past actions, but their future ones, figure into this universal evaluation.<br /> <br /> This is kind of like the anti lovecraft ...but only kinda. At a certain point, whatever is making this decision is so far removed from human experience, you have to wonder if it's version of evil really meaningfully relates to any human priority or understanding at all. It's not optimizing for 'good' or 'justice' it's optimizing for something humans aren't capable of understanding. Unlike lovecraft, where the universe fundamentally doesn't care about humans, where we're just too small, in this formulation the universe cares hugely - but not necessarily in a way humans would find 'meaningful' because 'meaning' is a human hobby<br /> <br /> <table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody> <tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnuNiAukX4pesXJyiJDdM7pqcjiNXHu0I8EoxYvPNKpOWGZ2pXYJQhnzT80IMVxyKzvK2Gb6qTHRsmjZJvqwAdT-aMiNfhm2LJqFjgTAHE3GRexO2_oy2Sjff-hMJO99NAjZeKwgZT74Y/s1600/1504189764-20170831.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="690" data-original-width="684" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnuNiAukX4pesXJyiJDdM7pqcjiNXHu0I8EoxYvPNKpOWGZ2pXYJQhnzT80IMVxyKzvK2Gb6qTHRsmjZJvqwAdT-aMiNfhm2LJqFjgTAHE3GRexO2_oy2Sjff-hMJO99NAjZeKwgZT74Y/s320/1504189764-20170831.png" width="317" /></a></td></tr> <tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.smbc-comics.com/comic/quorf" target="_blank">SMBC</a> </td></tr> </tbody></table> But, humans being humans, I'm sure such a force would still massively influence culture, religion, and understanding of morality. After all, it might not be meaningful, but it's <i>testable</i>.<br /> <br /> <b>The Way of Nine Swords</b>: the Church absolutely believes in alignment, but there's is a more old-school view. There are but three alignments: Law, Neutrality, and Chaos. The 'heresy of the Nine Swords' is a grave slip into sin in the eyes of the church. The nine swords philosophers contend that there are nine alignments, each as perilous to mortals as a sword. Like a sword, a person's alignment can be studied and mastered, but such a path is a burden, like the burden of a warrior, and not to be taken up or turned aside from lightly. The Church condemns this as obfuscating acts of iniquity: what the Nine Swords monks call 'Chaotic Good' is simply someone slipping away from the true path of morality, their soul tainted by chaos (but perhaps not permanently- the Church is very adept at conversions)<br /> <br /> <b>What do the Elves think?</b> Non-humans don't have much truck for all of this. Elves see themselves as above all this rigmarole, although they ALSO see themselves as intrinsically Good (in whatever manner is most fashionable these days in the courts of the Fey). Dwarves insist there are five alignments, although they refuse to elaborate more on what that means. Elves care more about Beauty vs Ugliness (and elf characters should have an alignment based on such), and Dwarves care about things like Work, Honour, and Tradition. Other beings have likewise varying preoccupations. Most human-like beings do mostly understand what humans are going on about when it comes to morals, ethics, good and evil, etc, they just think we're a little <i>obsessed</i><b style="font-style: italic;"> </b>with it, in the same way Elves are kind of overly preoccupied with Beauty. And just as there are humans who don't 'get' art (a failing no elf has ever suffered from), there are elves who don't 'get' morality.<br /> <br /> <br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b>There should be a lot of Alignment Languages</b></span><br /> More than there are alignments, by a long shot. Make room for culturally specific variations. It always bugged me that vanilla D&D has <i>Sylvan</i> and <i>Druidic</i> and <i>Elven</i> all as separate languages. Not anymore!<br /> <br /> <b>Druidic</b> is a language that is attempting to get rid of language. Based on Shalk, a language that sings in the blood of those born with it, it uses Abati loan words to convey as much meaning in as few words as possible, especially avoiding nouns, and avoiding names almost completely. Part of the language is one of signs, both gestural, in the lynx-like shrug of the shoulders, and physical, in the acorn tucked in the crook of a pine tree, left as a sign to another speaker of the nonlanguage. Much of the language is comprised of periods of silence.<br /> <br /> <b>Sylvan</b> is the alignment language of the Fey. When the elves were exiled and fled into the Long Earth, they found many similar exiles there: gnomes, sprites, and nature spirits such as dryads, who call the Green Lands their home. <b>Tuathan</b> is the non-alignment language spoken by Eladrin today, <b>Elvish</b> is for Elves, <b>Bolgish</b> is for Firbolg (the cousins of the Eladrin), etc.<br /> <br /> And then there should be other languages: one for Paladins, <b>Thieves Cant</b> for those CN types.

If you roll equal or under your training </span><span style="font-weight: normal;">score</span><span style="font-weight: normal;">, you succeed! Take the thing. If you roll </span><span style="font-weight: normal;">over</span><span style="font-weight: normal;">, too bad, but you keep the training points.<br /> If you have a trainer, you can add </span><i><span style="font-weight: normal;">their</span></i><span style="font-weight: normal;"> stat (usually Wisdom or Intelligence) to </span><span style="font-weight: normal;">your training score, before you roll. The trainer bonus isn’t cumulative, and it doesn’t stick around if the trainer isn’t available next time you roll.</span><span style="font-weight: normal;"><br /> Training points are flexible. If you start training at punching goats, but then realize before you’</span><span style="font-weight: normal;">re</span><span style="font-weight: normal;"> done that punching ninjas is better, that’s fine. If you switch from training at punching to training at magicking, tho, you’ll have to start over from scratch. Also, you can only have one pool of training points going at a time.<br /> <br /> </span><b><span style="font-size: large;"><i>Ability testing:</i></span></b><span style="font-weight: normal;"><i> </i>Sometimes, the training rules will tell you to ‘roll dex’ or ‘roll intelligence’ or some other ability score. When you do this, roll a d20, and if the result is equal to or lower than that ability score, you succeed! Take the thing. If not, too bad, you get nothing. <br /> <br /> <br /> Here are some basic applications of the training action:</span><br /> <br /> <b>Get a Rando ability:</b><span style="font-weight: normal;"> </span><span style="font-weight: normal;">For if you just want a cool thing, but you’re not fussed which thing. All the random advancement tables can be found here, there’s a lot of them and you don’t get to read through them first. Roll the primary ability for the class you’re trying to gain an ability for. You can only have one of these per HD that you have. Please keep track of this.<br /> <br /> </span><b>Get a feat</b><span style="font-weight: normal;">: 5e feats are too powerful, but luckily they’re broken up into little pieces, so you can get them one at a time. Roll training. You can still get feats at the regular level increments.<br /> <br /> </span><b>Increase an ability score:</b><span style="font-weight: normal;"> Roll training </span><i><span style="font-weight: normal;">and</span></i><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"> roll OVER the ability you’re trying to level (the better you get, the harder it is to progress further). I might change this if it seems too strong, or make them temporary boosts, but I’m also planning on including more stat-drain type effects, so it might balance out <3<br /> <br /> </span></span><span style="font-style: normal;"><b>Gain a skill/tool:</b></span><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"> Roll training.<br /> <br /> </span></span><span style="font-style: normal;"><b>Saving throws: </b></span><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">For each of these, you have to roll training, plus a specific ability score assigned to each save.</span></span></div> <ul> <li> <div style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0in;"> <span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Death – roll wisdom</span></span></div> </li> <li> <div style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0in;"> <span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Doom – roll charisma</span></span></div> </li> <li> <div style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0in;"> <span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Destruction – roll strength</span></span></div> </li> <li> <div style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0in;"> <span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Poison – roll constitution</span></span></div> </li> <li> <div style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0in;"> <span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Law – roll wisdom</span></span></div> </li> <li> <div style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0in;"> <span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Chaos – roll charisma</span></span></div> </li> </ul> <div style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0in;"> <span style="font-style: normal;"><b>Weapon Mastery:</b></span><span style="font-style: normal;"> To do this you need to have a certain number of kills with the weapon.

The median party level is probably around 8 or 10, so that's a significant bump down, but it's also at the point where the Backgrounds in the Player's Handbook don't always cut it. Plus, and this is the real headache, character creation takes way too long. Stuff like this '<a href="http://tenfootpolemic.blogspot.com/2016/09/1d100-retroactive-backstory.html" target="_blank">retroactive backstory</a>' table speed things along, but not enough.<br /><br />I'm almost tempted to make people start at level one, but I know I'd have a mutiny on my hands (perfectly justifiable at this point in the campaign)<br /><br />So instead, I want to make 'Level 5' as much like 'Level 1' as possible. This will include beefed up backgrounds, semi-randomized starting gear and magic items, and set spell lists for wizards and their ilk- so you're a 5th level wizard, well I can just hand you a spell list, I guess that was on the curriculum. And you can tweak it from there<br /><br />Not all of this is binding of course, customization is encouraged, but this way you don't have to hem and haw over stuff you don't care about (you can keep your valuable hemming and hawing to stuff you really do care about!), and anyway, 5th-level characters need some place in the world, otherwise how did they get to 5th level? That's the added advantage, it gives a chance to embed context and world building into the character creation process<br /><br /><br />Here are the first four- I'm aiming for at least eight or twelve, and Backgrounds to go with them, but I'm writing kinda slow at the moment so I figure I better just get these out there for starters<br /><br /> <br /> <b>Legionnaire's Pack</b><br /> <i>depending on your standing with the army, you might have kinda sorta 'stolen' these items when you were discharged.

A dreamer must be properly trained to a degree appropriate for the power of the spirit, and several properly trained dreamers can share responsibilities.</li> <li>Staff of Holding- Enchanted to count as magic and cold iron. Can switch between +2 attack and +2 defence as a bonus action. Weilder knows <i>hold person</i> and can cast it 1/day without using a spell slot.
