Minimalist, the Poor Son of a Baron
He takes the path of a rebel
by King of Pain & Charis

Class: Any
Tag: SOB or MIN

Introduction

Born of SNOB parents, the minimalist takes the path of a rebel, disdaining what his parents loved and selecting only minimalist material possessions. He likewise uses utility spells, plus offensive spells not allowed to SNOBs. He holds nothing against his parents or other elitists, but prefers this path. A minimalist will coop with anyone. Basically, the SOB wears items that are extremely meager (base AC 1) or have but the lightest enchantment.

Rules

Starting off, sell your goods; you can't use them. Earn some cash, and check Griswold and Wirt frequently for a suitable weapon and/or armor.

Statistic points need not be distributed at the time of leveling

Warriors may only add points to strength to wield a legal weapon that has been found/bought, until it becomes 90 or all stats maxed.

Rogues may only add points to dexterity to wield a legal bow that has been found/bought, until it becomes 90 or all stats maxed.

Sorcerers may only assign +1 Magic point per level up. Once he has reached 30th lvl he may freely assign any such points.

Items

An item must be either meager (AC 1) or minimally magic, defined as follows: As long as one prefix or suffix is totally minimal, the other may be anything. Thus the best combinations usable on larger items would be red/white/blue +10% of the eagle; topaz +10% of the stars/brilliance/accuracy/giants/vigor/wolf/swiftness; Raven's of the Sky +1; etc. On a meager item, you could get something like Godly Cap (AC 1) of the Whale from Wirt.

Armor & Helms
Cloth Armor of AC 1 may have any pref/suff. Any other type of armor is allowed as long as it's minimally magic.
Similar restrictions are in effect for head gear.

Shields
Buckler AC 1 may have any pref/suff. Any other type of shield is allowed as long as it's minimally magic.

Staves
Angel Staff and Staves with spells are not usable unless all charges are drained from it.

Weapons
Only a bow, melee weapon or staff which has a minimalist prefix or suffix may be used, else the character uses fists/feet.

Enchantment Note
Although Angel, Lightning and Flaming do not have lower enchantments, they are not really minimalistic and should not be used without a proper suffix

Uniques
None. SOBs are the rebel children of SNOBs.

Note: See below for complete tables of minimalist items and attributes, and special bonus allowance for high level characters.

Shrines

No shrines other than Hidden and Religious.

Spells

All spells & scrolls are ok, except Mana Shield. Special spell restrictions on Stone Curse, Chain Lightning, Fireball, Elemental and Teleport.

No books can bought from Adria.

Table of Minimal Items and Affixes

Any items are usable if the base attribute and or pref/suff match one of the following.

Special Allowance for Higher Clvls
From clvl 10, add 1 bonus point to the item's attribute(s). Add one more for every 10th clvl thereafter. This means a clvl 30 sob can wear a cape with a base ac of 1 to 4, for example. While the extended base value itself does next to nothing, it will open up more chances for getting better items.
