[IC] A Stolen Land

[Eran]

Nexendia gazes at Eran curiously while wondering, why an arcane spell caster who is so eager to get close to his enemies to cast color spray, wouldn't have mage armor in his repertoire.  Not that a wizard has to learn mage armor but it was one of the most useful defensive spells especially when first beginning to adventure, as they seem to be.  "Of course, Eran," Nex replies.  "Which spell would you suggest I give up?  Either Summon monster or Grease have to go."

Thanks. My magic is work a little different than your's. I should prepare spells similar like you, this is my daily repertoire. This is narrower than your's but I could use it in much flexible way, e.g. if I prepare Enlarge Person and Color Spray then I could casts these spells four times in a day in any possible combinations.
So, I have no free "slot" for my mage armor.If you interest it then I will explain it in later.
I think the Summon is less usefull at now.

"If you plan on leaping into the fray and doing this Colour Spray  magic, when would you be doing the enlarge? It would have to last a very long time to cast it ahead of time and ensure that it is still effective when they ride in. And it would also make hiding behind the wagon as they ride in just a little difficult. Maybe if you could find a way to cast it on me just before I and Nexendia's mule push the wagon back."

I'm going to hide behind of you and I will use my first spell to enlarge you.

Before dawn, Andra awakens and begins work on her potions. It is surprisingly swift, as within ten minutes, she has five vials before her.

OOC - Sorry for the bad news, but a 1st level Investigator with INT 18 could only create 2=1+1 potions daily.
