Silver Crusade

Hi to all,

This evening I've been converting an NPC I created for a 3.5 campaign set in Greyhawk using the rules of Nephandum.
The NPC was an elf illusionist 7/master of the absurd 7 (a Nephandum PrC based on empowering figments). In the conversion, I decided to ditch the PrC, since some of its powers were similar to those ofm the illusionist specialist. The NPC became thus a 14th level illusionist.

During the creation, I realized something that made things quite difficult: the wizard has too many powers, and creating one really is time consuming, even more so than in 3.5...
I mean, it took about 30 minutes, not counting spells (prepared and spellbook) and feats (I had already decided both when I first created the NPC). The most time consuming thing was deciding the extra spells obtained at 2nd, 4th, 6th and so on level... Really, the creation seemed neverending.

Anyone else felt the same? Am I exaggerating?
