Saw a meme and thought it would make a good shirt:

"A School, Bala! Conphas has brought a School!"
[insert picture of yellow school bus]

And yet, it's the only way to avoid ambiguity. The IPA isn't that hard to learn, honestly, guys.

Remember when this was said?  I still don't believe you, and I've got the last several comments of confusion as for the why

Development continues!

I know nothing about p&p rpgs, and have never played one, but if there is something I could do, or learn to do, to help out, let me know.

I haven't been following extremely closely so forgive me if this have been throughly covered,  but have you found a workaround for the magic system? It seems to me that a schoolman would either be game-breakingly powerful, or entirely useless, depending on the situation.

...Then again, after some brief though, we've only ever seen upper lever schoolmen, so I guess development could be scaled without too much difficulty.

The only thing that is an issue, in my mind, if the fact that 'magic resistance' is either 100% or 0%.

Offensive cants and defensive wards could be adapted to party use (buffing, projectile protection, increased evasion% etc), such that even an encounter with fully choraed opponents could leave a schooman with some capabilities.

Entertaining ideas like stone/earthen armor that offers some physical protection to wielder/party-member come to mind.

I appreciate that, but I'm going to be real honest with you, that is not the slightest bit helpful 

Dunyain always sounds odd in my head but thats the best I came up with, I'm glad you agree.

btw which Momemn? There were two options

Aion is actually Ainon, but otherwise I agree.

My memory is so feeble... Guess I was thinking of the mmorpg called Aion, woops.

Kian is Kee-ahn for me.

I figured that one would be different for some. Probably makes mores sense that way.

I always pronounced Sranc as if it rhymed with tank, but your way of saying it sounds way cooler so I'm officially stealing it.

You're welcome

The whole reason I started reading Asimov is because its my Dad's favorite author. The Foundation trilogy that I pulled from his dusty bookshelf was much older than myself. He never much got into fantasy, always scifi, but recenly he's been reading mystery novels. I gave him DotD and thought it would be a hit (I'm very much my father's son) but he thought it was 'just ok' (I was shocked).

Foundation, Foundation and Empire, Second Foundation.

Or at least thats how I started. I really liked Foundation, Empire was pretty good, and I can't remember if I finished Second Foundation. Ahh yes, the Seldon Prophecy... takes me back.

Also notable, The Gods Themselves was a nebula/hugo award winner and there really aren't that many books that have won both. I haven't read it but it is on my list specifically for that reason.

The only other 'book' I read by Asimov was "I, Robot", though its not so much a book as it is a collection of related short stories. It's nothing like the movie (lol), but I enjoyed it.

Well I'm intrigued more than dissuaded by that response. Thanks Meyna
