  • Playtest: Wizard
    Playtest: Wizard Illustrations by William O’Connor and Steve Ellis Why This Is the Class for You: You like to master the battlefield and control your enemies, while also having the tools to handle any situation you face. Some things no person is meant to know, some powers no mortal should ever wield, and some mysteries are best left buried in the lost manuscripts. Common wisdom advises all this, yet wizards have little use for such quaint warnings and plunge headlong into the occult without fear. For this reason, most people fear wizards, or if they don’t fear them, they at least steer clear of them—for who knows what magic they work in their laboratories or what terrible secrets they have unearthed? If wizards notice such an attitude, they pay it no heed or, perhaps, cultivate it to keep the uninitiated from peering too closely at the forces these magicians wield. A wizard, it has been said, is an arcane scion, a gifted individual trained in the mystical arts who accesses the power that permeates the cosmos and molds it into useful and often destructive forms. A wizard’s approach to magic is one of scholar- ship and accomplishment. To a wizard, there is no easy path to power; there is only research, discipline, and intellect. Those who circumvent the proper order, such as the dubious warlocks and their untamed cousins the sorcerers, pervert magi- cal energy—or, worse, are ruled by it. For this reason wizards guard their secrets well, teaching their lore only to those worthy candidates who have both the mental acuity and the strength of will to use it.

  • Sample File This Book Presents Two New Godling Base Classes, Mystical Counterparts to the Ones from the Previous Book
    mortal with the blood of a god flowing through Aher veins—a hero with one foot in the world of man and the other in the realm of the divine. This concept was explored in the best-selling Genius Guide to the Godling, but that material hardly exhausted the subject. The godlings in that first volume focused on flesh and blood, brawn and brains, striding the world as paragons of human endeavors. They did not, however, touch on the idea of godlings whose affinities lie closer to the mystical world—channeling their connections to divinity into magical effects that no mortal spellcaster could ever equal. The Genius Guide to Mystic Godlings expands the concept of semi-divine characters to include those whose godly heritage manifests itself through magics and spellcasting. These godlings do not fit as readily into the ordinary world. Mortals can sense the power they wield and sometimes find it unsettling. Even the godlings themselves have an uneasy relationship with their own powers—some finding their earthly bodies barely up to the task of containing so much raw energy. Sample file This book presents two new godling base classes, mystical counterparts to the ones from the previous book. It also contains a collection of godling spells— magic so tightly bound to the gods that only those with divine blood can wield it. In addition, there are also new godling feats, divine traits, and scion talents that can be used with these classes or the previously published mighty and clever godlings. The Genius Guide to Mystic Godlings stands on its own, containing everything you need to create semi- divine spellcasting heroes for the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game.

    Complete Dragon and Dungeon Magazine 3.5 Spells - Introduction WHO AM I? INTRODUCTION Plain and simple: nobody. I’m not a graphic artist. I do not design layouts for magazines or newsletters of any sort. INTRODUCTION TO V3.0 While I would love to say who I am, I’d rather not be hassled The inclusion of DUNGEON MAGAZINE in this compilation for creating this compilation for the gaming community. I yielded only 10 new spells none of which had images often go by the name of EldritchHorror or some variation associated with them. All of them were Sor/Wiz spells with and sometimes can be found as Strider. the exception of the two Epic level spells. Most of the spells Look for my other compilations: Arms and Equipment, found in DUNGEON MAGAZINE already come from another Feats, Flaws, and Fighting Styles, and Magic Items. source. There are no new Spellbooks and no new Domains. Adding these spells doesn’t significantly change much at all but is done more for uniformity between the compilations. INTRODUCTION Collected here is a listing of all the spells found in DRAGON MAGAZINE issues 309-362. Most of the spells in the earlier issues have found their way into the SPELL COMPENDIUM. Other spells appear in various printed books. These spells have not been reproduced here. Even though there may be slight differences between the spells in the magazine and the spells in the books, it is my belief that newer issues and newer printed material supersedes anything that came before it. There is one exception to this reprinting rule.
