Wizard
The wizard strives to be a master of magical energies, shaping them and casting them as spells. To do so, he/she studies strange tongues and obscure facts and devotes much of his/her time to magical research. A wizard must rely on knowledge and wit to survive. Wizards are rarely seen adventuring without a retinue of fighters and men-at-arms. Because there are different types (or schools) of magic, there are different types of wizards. However, the most common sort studies all types of magic and learns a wide variety of spells. His/her broad range makes them well suited to the demands of adventuring. To cast a spell, a wizard must have an Intelligence equal or greater than the spells level plus 10. Intelligence is the casting statistic for a wizard. It affects their maximum spellcasting level, spells saving throw DCs and number of bonus spells. Dexterity and Constitution are also important to the wizard.
