> Arials also get a 23 int, and flight is a useful add-on for invokers.
Only if you're too lazy to carry potions, and not being able to go underwater can suck a bit.
> Gnomes: 18, Half-Elves: 19. However, the additional trains (and better starting stats) of a gnome will more than make up for that difference.
Make up for it and more easily, there is no noticeable hp gain difference between 18 and 19 con for a mage.
> Also, remember that you are going to spend a lot of time practicing. The 24 int of a half-elf will save you some time here. Vuln_iron is annoying, but then again so is vuln_blunt.
As a master invoker you'd have tome to help with learning spells and while you can get a form of protection for vulnerable to blunt, the iron vulnerabilty you can't and it cuts you out on a lot of nicer equipment.
