    Correct! If I could take one 'thing' with me, it would be one nice example of me! :p

    Yes, yes Faragon, of course I would like to roam the realms with you! And I'm honored you would take me with you. ;) I would buy you a nice magic sword or axe when we get there.

    Well, now for a thing I would take with me.
    Probably my FRCS-books for some backgrounds and knowledge of the realms. Knowledge is power, you see?

    Hmmm ... could I bring with my Neverwinter Nights character (especially after he finishes Hordes of the Underdark)? He would keep me safe and sound.

    If not, I'd bring with my Bible and the reality therein.

    He preached to the masses and brought repentance to the lands, they burned their books of witchcraft and turned to the real and living God.

    Probably my guitar. I could earn myself a living as a bard. I can sing feasibly well, and my guitar skills are getting there. Who's to say that I can't?

    Yuch! The chocolate on them is pumped full of chemicals to stop them melting in the 40+ degree celsius heat where they were made. If you are looking for decent chocolate, then at least get it from somewhere cooler.

    Although, I guess everyone has their own personal taste.

    Hmm, tough one. A battlecruiser full of supplies and ammunition?

    Nah. Forgotten Realms is a dangerous place, not much exists in modern world that can beat a low-level magic in FR.

    Still, I guess I'd go for a weapon. The only thing with a clear advantage as I can think is a Desert Eagle .50 AE and a bag full of ammunition. Sure, it's 40kg of stuff to carry around all the time but it's worth it. And the ammo won't run out any time soon as you wouldn't have to use the gun too many times. But no damn platemail would help against that one. Hard to say how defensive missile protection spells would work though.

    If it was the other way around, I'd take a familiar like Fairy Dragon. Or even more likely a ring of invisibility (set times per day, so it would never really run out). Or a ring of regeneration. Or assuming the magic really worked here, I'd learn the ability to read a single Wish scroll and take it with me here. :)
