My first AD&D character for a long time

Back in the day, I played AD&D 1E for about 2 months in college. I wanted to get into a friend's The Fantasy Trip campaign, and so I joined his AD&D campaign in order to secure a seat. I played a druid, and at the time, I was appalled by the weird shit. You, see, at the time, I was a Serious Gamer, and the frivolous things of AD&D annoyed me. I felt it was a joke that my druid could have a trained rhino that I rode into battle that had a +1 enchanted horn. I never played AD&D again, until I got into the OSR. And that was first Oriental Adventures and later 2nd Ed, so not straight AD&D and not 1E.

So this is my first straight AD&D 1E character that I've rolled up since 1980. I did this in preparation for a new AD&D campaign a friend is running through the A1-4 series Scourge of the Slave Lords. I wanted to get used to the rules, especially multiclassing, so I wouldn't be completely lost when I created my character.

I think I did everything right. The attributes were rolled 4d6 drop lowest. The attributes that weren't up to the minimum required for an Illusionist, I raised to the minimum. I swapped the two 17s into INT and DEX to meet the Illusionist minimums. I traded one of my 7 minimum 1st level spells for 4 cantrips (it was a stupid spell anyway).

Here's what I have. I like him.
