[edit] Class Features

[edit] Arcane Caster Rank

A Wizard is an Arcane Spell Caster as described in the rules on Magic. Their Arcane Caster Rank is equal to their level as a Wizard.

In order to cast a spell, the Wizard's intelligence score must match or excede the 10 plus the level of the spell.

The DC for spells cast by the wizard equals 10 + The level of the Spell + The Wizards Intelligence Modifier (DC:10+Spell Level+INT)

[edit] Book Magic

Wizards are book casters. This means that their knowledge of magic comes from books, and their study of the arcane. A Wizard's spellbook is his most prized posession.

In any given twenty four hour period a Wizard must spend at least one hour studying from their spellbook. As long as they do, they may cast any spell that is in that book as normal. If they go more than twenty four hours without studying a spellbook, then the information from the book starts to become less focused and clear, and the spells become harder to cast. When this happens, those spells cost double the normal energy cost to cast.

If a Wizard goes more than a week without studying spells from a spell book then he loses the ability to cast those spells all together until he spends the appropriate time in studies.

This difficulty does not apply to spells that have been thuroughly mastered (Purchased with CP).

It is also possible to have more than one spellbook, and to have the same spell in more than one book. Some wizards horde entire libraries.

[edit] Summon Familiar

A wizard can obtain a familiar. Doing so takes 24 hours and uses up magical materials that cost 100 gp. A familiar is a magical beast that resembles a small animal and is unusually tough and intelligent. The creature serves as a companion and servant.

The wizard chooses the kind of familiar he gets. As the sorcerer advances in level, his familiar also increases in power.

If the familiar dies or is dismissed by the wizard, the wizard must attempt a DC 15 Fortitude saving throw. Failure means he loses 200 experience points per wizard level; success reduces the loss to one-half that amount. However, a wizard’s experience point total can never go below 0 as the result of a familiar’s demise or dismissal. A slain or dismissed familiar cannot be replaced for a year and day. A slain familiar can be raised from the dead just as a character can be, and it does not lose a level or a Constitution point when this happy event occurs.

A character with more than one class that grants a familiar may have only one familiar at a time.

[edit] Bonus Feats

At 5th, 10th, 15th, and 20th level, a wizard gains a bonus feat. At each such opportunity, she can choose a metamagic feat, an item creation feat, or other designated Wizard feat. At their option, the wizard may choose to permenantly master two spells in place of taking this feat. The wizard must still meet all prerequisites for a bonus feat, including caster level minimums.
