Yeah but J-Dawg can get you endless fish and breadsticks for snacking while you play

Yes, but the price of that temporary earthly magic is your immortal soul!

So, theoretically, it's not worth it.

But you need the sourcebooks to learn the spell...

Especially on a table with 3 women

If role playing games gave you the powers of your character I'm torn between Palladium druid and d&d 3.5 druid

3.5 druid is winning due to its ability to cast reincarnate, and to craft contingent spells. The trick being to get to level 11 for the contingent spell feat in the modern world

The Palladium druid doesn't get to live forever but has better access to fewer spells

Also I live in a city built along ley lines which is good for the Palladium druid

Since it's all made up though and the games are so closely related I'm sure I can blend them and give the Palladium druid the d&d feats and spells

The inflation calculator that I found online says that's the equivalent today of about $600 compared to the mid 80s when this was written.

But yeah, that is underwhelming for having literal magic powers.
