Lol, it always seams that I'm the one bringing this up, but oh well. Many people believe that Elminster is "overpowered". I say no, maybe a little, but not much. Let's look at the facts...

-In the Shandril saga (I'll use that as an example), he is 200+ years old. I'm GUESSING that an archmage is atleast 60 years old? And that's probably only if they have studied into magic intensley. Elminster has done this for...200+ years. Statistically he's like at least 3-4 archmages for the price of one!

-He's very much favored my Mystra, seeing as how he's a "Chosen of Mystra".

So I ask you, thinking of this, should we be thinking that he is overpowered for no reason?
