if I’m interpreting this right alchemists or their hybrid classes can use extracts to functionally cast spells without like, actually casting spells
but they also don’t have access to daze
also, Still Spell + Silent Spell would push it up a couple levels
so if my understanding is correct it would be plausible for the guy to be a x level cleric but at least a. 7th level summoner. (or another class but higher level I guess)
or a wizard 7, or a sorcerer 8, or a wizard 3/rogue 1/arcane trickster 5,
or he has some other way to do it
hey you guys are doing so much more right. you’ve gathered heaps of information. you’re not going to have to explain yourselves when you all meet up.
Intellect Devourers get Daze Monster as an SLA, and SLAs don’t require components*
* I reserve the right to say that SLAs with expensive material components still require those components. This is not RAW, but the RAW makes it kind of difficult to have a coherent setting.
I refuse to play my first TTRPG as anything that is nowhere close to my real self.
but aren’t you playing a hero?
My actions are unaffected by others’ interpretations of my character.
m messing with you
Thank you for the clarification. 
hey I learned multiple names today
I count this as a success
you have been playing cards with these people for like half an hour and you don’t even know their names
they have names, their names are Scar Guy and Kerchief Woman-
well in the future dimension time is distorted to the effect of trying to match us all up
Meanwhile, Zone, in non-combat purgatory:

Technically… Technically, this is a better position than [in-combat] or [continuous loss].
Still… I am. so confused on what to do.
