Could someone PM me the wealth by level for a level 8 character? Also, if I submit a legal level 8 character that can cast 9th level wizard spells, will it be accepted? Will anyone want to fight it?
I would love to know how you do that...
Care to elaborate?
Hmm... maybe it's not actually doable till 9th level, now that I think about it, due to insufficient feats. You definitely need Earth Spell, and you have to be a gnome, unless you use the adapted version of SCM that isn't race specific.
Anyway: Cloistered Cleric 5/Shadowcraft Mage 3. You qualify early by using Divine Metamagic: Heighten on a 2nd level spell to raise it to 4th. You can actually DMM: Heighten things to 9th level with enough turn attempts, though, and when you also use Earth Spell, that becomes effectively a 10th level spell. Then using that with Shadow Illusion, you can emulate any Wizard Evocation or Conjuration (Creation or Summoning) spell of 9th level or lower.
You need: SF and GSF Illusion, Heighten Spell, DMM: Heighten Spell, Earth Sense, and Earth Spell, though. And even with flaws, I don't see how to get all that as a gnome CC5/SCM3... It might be possible to use Metamagic School Focus instead of Earth Spell, but I'm not sure that is legal due to how they're worded.
