CIP DEFE: Which God?
I think my first book purchase should be Conjurations, for Searing Ray (better than Flame Tongue) and Battlesphere. Add in the Book of Fire, and perhaps that randart for Poisonous Cloud/Ignite Poison, and I have everything I need for a five-rune game right there. The necromancy books will support this with things like Regeneration, Animate Dead, and Corpse Rot.
What I'm wondering is which god to choose. Of the ones I know already, I don't feel ready to tackle Chei. Veh would give wizardry and range for conjurations, MP on kill, and likely Fire Storm eventually. With Sif, I could channel frequently since I don't really need to get to her book gifts to move beyond the starting book. Or maybe I ought to wait and get a god that helps me in the early game: Fedhas or Nemelex? I really don't know the best path to take here. Or even Gozag--I need money after all, and already have two food shops.
