Swift Action: A swift action takes a small amount of time but Using an immediate action on your turn is the same as using represents a larger expenditure of effort than a free action. You a swift action, and doing so counts as your swift action for that can perform one swift action per turn without affecting your turn.

You cannot use another immediate action or a swift action ability to perform other actions. However, you can perform only until after your next turn if you have used an immediate action one swift action per turn, regardless of other actions you take.

Even people Unrefined magic cannot be seen, felt, tasted, smelled, or who wield the mightiest spells seem reluctant heard. Unrefined magic is best described as the poten- to give a simple answer. For purposes of this tial for the incredible that is inherent in the universe. Magic works sense unrefined magic in any way experts in the field its wonders without any discernible physical cause and often regard those who claim otherwise as eccentrics.

A variety of sensations magic, which is present in the universe in the same way that might accompany this awareness.

Practitioners ordinary matter is present. Magic is simply one element in report a surge of confidence, a tingle of raw power, or the combination of things that make up what mortals know an impression of potent harmonics.

Some perceive as reality. You can find matter almost everywhere you look in the harmonics as chords of unearthly music, while the universe. Some scholars contend that even the voids of others describe the same phenomenon as tremors interplanetary space and the Astral Plane hold infinitesimal rippling through their limbs and organs.

However bits of matter, too small to see or feel, but present neverthe- magic is perceived, the mere fact of that sensitivity less. Magic, too, infuses the universe, though most beings indicates the individual's potential to shape it into remain unaware of its invisible presence. Even those incapable of learning spells aren't alike. To the layperson, there's not much dif- the simplest spell can, with practice, learn to mimic the ference between the spells wielded by a wizard and those power of a spellcaster by way of various magic items.

After all, specific source that serves as both a conduit and a filter. Someone else—a true practitioner—has already or ideal. Regardless of the actual source, divine magic is performed the truly difficult task of shaping and binding raw intensely personal and comes to the user through devotion to magic into the item.

Put simply, to a divine spellcaster magic is a matter of faith, not learning. The protection from evil spells if they don't wish to rely on magic items that someone spell cast by a cleric functions identically to that cast by a else already has made.

Some creatures have a natural talent sorcerer, even though each caster would claim that his spell for casting arcane spells dragons and nagas, for example , but results from a different power. The mystical gestures required by divine For a wizard or similar arcanist, the initial period of prepa- spells tend to be less expansive and complicated than those ration represents the spell's lengthiest and most complex of their arcane counterparts, but no compelling theory element.

Preparing a spell involves drawing in unrefined explains why. For all practical fewer innate restrictions on their spells, since a higher power purposes, preparing a spell is the first step in casting it.

The has already entrusted them with the effect. The spellcaster prays or meditates, entreating the potential for a particular spell. Arcane spellcast- A rapidly growing number of individuals, however, master ers, on the other hand, see preparing a spell as an intellectual arcane practices that ignore the act of spell preparation.

These exercise. The arcane spellcaster ponders the spell's intricacies characters instead focus their talent in learning a narrow range and builds it within his or her mind, piece by piece. Instead of Divine casters must also obey certain strictures on spending long hours poring over spellbooks, these casters need their use of magic, varying from limited access to spell mere minutes each day to ready their magical potential.

Rare is Whether prepared or merely readied, a spell remains with the divine spellcaster who doesn't have to deal with at least the caster as magical potential until the caster chooses to trig- one quirk that an arcane caster might find quaint or even ger, or cast, the spell. Such an act typically requires a variety outright annoying. Curiously, one arcane caster—the wu of physical props components , ranging from a mystical jen—shares a similar stricture in the form of taboos.

This phrase or gesture to an expensive or rare substance required similarity suggests that the origins of the wu jen's magical to unleash the magic. Although arcanists have commonly accepted. These energetic sages assert that power. Once a spell has been cast, it's effectively impossible components aren't keys, but rather locks—suggesting that to tell whether it is arcane or divine.

If an observer actually even the most learned of arcanists don't fully control their witnesses the casting, the spell's components might give a own powers, and that components are necessary instruments clue to the spell's nature; for example, divine spells typically to keep the spells in check.

Whether these locks were placed employ a holy symbol as a focus for the spell. Otherwise, by the deities themselves or are simply such an old convention nothing distinguishes an arcane spell effect from a divine that no one today questions their utility is anyone's guess.

Such creatures have no explainable are the undisputed masters of crafting power-driven bar- awareness of how they actually manage their magical talents. No other creatures anything special to work their magic beyond willing their take as much pleasure from corrupting mortals with dark magical tricks to happen.

Such creatures seem to function as powers, and the sheer number of devils who traffic in such. They naturally collect pacts would send a chill down the spine of the staunchest. From ambitious horned devils and pit fiends to the This magical potential doesn't seem to have any clear link greatest archdevils themselves, these masters of artifice and either to arcane magic or to divine magic, though it creates duplicity take pride in sowing evil throughout the land, and results similar or identical to those arising from spells.

So far, this theory has gained little traction responsible for the pacts that create warlocks. As any planar among traditional sages. Although the end result of a breath a bare few of the so-called demon princes are so inclined. Mighty demons prefer to bestow their favor upon bloody Warlocks typically claim that this proficiency with magic cults of mad followers rather than reward a single individual comes from their bloodline—or, in some cases, from a pact with great power—after all, such an individual might easily made with powerful entities that permanently changes the become a threat to the demon prince's own rulership of his individual's interactions with the supernatural.

The various demon princes are updated for the v. In truth, while they might be the most visible and well-known exam- ples, fiendish warlocks make up only a thin majority of all those who use invocations. Instead, Fey: A growing number of warlocks draw their power schools provide labels that fit the facts various scholars and from the mystical realm of faerie.

Fey have always enjoyed practitioners have observed about magic over the years. Each school describes a group untapped potential that rests within faeriekind. True fey are more terrible and beautiful than mortal similar ways. Characters who grasp the concept of spell schools eyes can bear to perceive. Legends of rival courts of fey—one maintain a way of thinking about magic that helps them light and one dark—have persisted for ages, though the fey achieve the proper frame of mind for working arcane spells.

The increase in mortals who Spell schools, and the techniques associated with them, wield fey-given power, however, suggests that the realm of have proved such effective classifications that spellcasters of faerie might be awakening from a long slumber.

Woe to all kinds have adopted the terms and methods associated with those who underestimate the effect of this development on schools to sharpen their own understanding of magic and to the mortal realm. The detect magic spell is A feyblooded warlock is equally likely to be a well-meaning just one example that proves the usefulness of the concept of chaotic good, an unpredictable chaotic neutral, or a coldly spell schools.

The spell reveals magical auras, and anyone with malevolent neutral evil individual. Few have the discipline even a basic understanding of spell schools can examine an for a lawful evil bent, and most don't share the savage outlook aura and determine exactly what the aura's school is, regard- common to chaotic evil.

A trained observer can study an aura's characteristics mortals. Some of the most potent of them, however, such and relate them to one of the eight schools.

The Spell Focus feat allows any Warlocks whose powers derive from the slaadi can be of spellcaster not just a wizard to develop a knack for casting any alignment, but most are chaotic.

Celestials: The mere suggestion that the paragons of Schools aren't the only method for understanding and virtue would grant such dark powers to mortals seems at first working arcane magic, just the most successful one.

Other to be unworthy of discussion. However, some particularly approaches can prove just as effective, at least for some arcan- wild or chaotic celestials, such as the eladrins, share more ists. Warlocks, for example, are classified as users of arcane in common with the fey than with the archons or angels. Is magic because they don't rely on a deity or ethos for their it so inconceivable that the mighty denizens of the Court magical power , but they don't work their magic within the of Stars the eladrin lords detailed in Book of Exalted Deeds framework that schools have defined.

Doing this is commonly known as specializing soul. For another take on a celestial-themed warlock, see the in a school. When a wizard chooses one school as a specialty, enlightened spirit prestige class page Only time will tell if schools if the item is activated with a spell trigger.

In fact, a school specialist can choose any two prohibited schools. The uncertainties surrounding magic haven't stopped magical Still, rivalries between students of particular schools have practitioners from promulgating various theories and systems arisen over the years, and certain schools appeal more to for its use. Perhaps the most successful of these concepts is some practitioners than to others. Here's a quick look at each the system of schools of magic relied on by wizards.

They like to imagine that else. Whether it blocks, banishes, protects, or rescues, an through spellcasting, they take control of the fundamental abjuration spell is dedicated to preventing or ending some material of reality. Conjurers believe that their spells are drawn from the Specialists in this school call themselves abjurers, and they leftover energy that created the universe.

As such, their spells subscribe to the philosophy that an ounce of prevention is do not steal from the world around them, but instead draw worth a pound of cure. The school's detractors refer to abju- from an ever-expanding force of creation that is still spawn-.

Those who oppose this theory accuse. CHAPTER 1 of undoing, but abjurers contend that the power to unmake conjurers of weakening the fabric of reality, slowly draining something particularly another magical effect represents off imperceptible amounts of matter to fuel their spells. By extension, then, they Philosophically, conjurers stand in opposition to the hold abjuration as the most powerful school of magic.

Conjurers find evocation spells superficial and desire for equilibrium, the school's devotees claim. For every devoid of possibility, since they lack meaningful substance. Those who reject this theory claim simply that and unreliable for regular use. Likewise, conjurers regard abjuration spells result from long magical research driven illusion spells as distasteful, preferring to work only with by the desire to resist or reverse change. Abjurations aren't what is real.

Philosophically, abjurers are most likely to come into As a conjurer, you might exhibit any or all of the following conflict with illusionists. After all, abjuration deals with real personality traits. Since many abjura- You are naturally bossy and tell people what to do before tion spells deal with protecting or ending harmful ongoing earning their respect.

Evokers, with their love of You have little patience for uncultured or uneducated loud and flashy magic, also rub abjurers the wrong way.

Personality: Abjurers like to solve problems, and they try You prefer the company of your summoned creatures over to be ready for any situation that might arise. As an abjurer, your living companions. You prefer to summon You have to get the last word in any discussion or creatures that you can count on entirely, rather than ensnaring argument.

Illusion and You are annoyed by outside forces people, events, the transmutation are similarly perceived as a waste of time, weather interfering with your personal life or goals.

Prohibited Schools: As an abjurer, you can most afford to give up the school of illusion. Beyond that, The effect could disclose hidden traps, expose well-told lies, both enchantment and necromancy represent acceptable or foil enemy plans.

These schools' spells deal with only a Specialists in this school call themselves diviners, and limited range of foes or circumstances, which is contrary to they subscribe to the philosophy that you must know all the the typical abjurer's attitude. The effect could appear in the spellcaster's hand, Diviners see themselves as seekers of truth, even while they arrive from another plane of existence, or take shape in keep the most powerful secrets to themselves.

Diviners feel that their very existence epitomizes the never- Specialists in this school call themselves conjurers, and ending search for knowledge. Diviners justify their chosen they subscribe to the philosophy that two birds in the hand path of magic by claiming that if all things in the universe are worth four in the bush.

Critics of the conjuration school were known, divination magic would cease to exist. Those strong enough to Philosophically, diviners categorically oppose the school resist such mental coercion might speak against the social of abjuration, because abjurers are the most successful at corruption an enchanter can seed into a community.

The blocking their spells. The school of illusion is similarly enchanter blithely agrees, all the while manipulating politics irksome to diviners in search of the truth, often misleading to secure his or her position of influence.

Transmutation can be troublesome to diviners Philosophically, enchanters oppose the evocation school. Since enchanters are concerned with blending in without Personality: Diviners are being overtly noticed, necromancy is summarily creatures of intense curiosity rejected because of the stigma it attracts.

Personality: Enchanters are characters You are a good listener with a of subtlety who have an air of superior- highly analytical mind.

You are happiest work- You see conspiracies everywhere, per- ing in the background haps even where none exist.

You are an enchanter, giving up the indifferent about giving up the school of necromancy is almost a school of illusion, since diviners foregone conclusion, since you lack see the potential in deceiving scrying the ability to affect undead minds.

Those who disparage the enchant- explosive fire, or shock them with electrical current. Those who oppose the school of evocation cite the change of mind. For an enchanter, controlling the actions collateral damage of these spells, but evokers are quick to of another creature, particularly an influential one, is akin assure any concerned party that their spells are either care- to guiding fate. In truth, evokers are almost Enchanters regard domination of the mind as the ultimate fatalistically drawn to the limitless raw magical power of form of magical power.

They realize that their field of magic their spells, oblivious to the inherent danger. Critics of the illusion school claim that its spells focuses magic from its most turbulent and volatile state.

They believe that release it in controlled amounts. Opponents of the school, reality is defined by observation, and they focus on changing who believe that evokers contribute to rather than diminish individual perception as the supreme form of power.

Evokers regard the reality-based focus reality, and so are in fact altering the world on a deeply sub- of conjurers as limited in its outlook, missing the wealth of conscious level. Debunkers of this opportunities that evocation creates. By extension, theory retort that illusionists are the school of enchantment warrants a delicate either more than a little insane touch that is frequently lost on evokers.

The effect could hide your presence, summon a is a likely choice as one of your prohibited schools because target's greatest fear, or manifest a visage limited only by a well-crafted illusion can serve the same purpose as an your creativity.

Necromancy is perhaps the next Specialists in this school call themselves illusionists, and logical choice, since the schools have some overlap with they subscribe to the philosophy that reality is only what you spells that frighten their subject. Enchantment is over life and death. Their effects can also a good choice for a prohibited school, since necromancers drain the stamina out of an opponent's rarely have any need for living servants.

A transmutation spell modifies energy and matter. Specialists in this school call them- The effect could alter a creature's shape, selves necromancers, and they subscribe boost mental or physical qualities, or to the philosophy of waste not, want change the way something interacts not.

Detractors of the school con- with the world. Controlling such right to change creation, but trans- bodies, however, is secondary to muters feel that if something can be controlling life.

They claim that any an essential element in the hurdle, no matter how daunting, universe—one that can be can be solved by changing it into controlled and manipulated something harmless.

People who into something else. They merely challenge the necessity of this accelerate that ongoing evolution- school claim that necromancy ary momentum to suit their needs.

Necromancy trumps the mind by claiming dominion Philosophically, transmutation is opposed to the school of over life. Necromancy also finds little in common with conjuration. Rather than working with existing materials, conjuration; while conjurers must create their own power conjuration creates or summons new materials. Evocation by summoning and the like, necromancers work with is similar in this regard, in that both schools create effects whatever is on hand at the time.

Necromancy and Personality: Necromancers are introspective characters transmutation are complementary schools, since both share with a pragmatic approach to death. As a necromancer, you the same view of using whatever is available. Whether alive, might exhibit any or all of the following personality traits.

A grandstanding blaster is either supremely talented at quish illusion as one of your prohibited schools, since you calculating spell angles, diameters, and radii, or he is heedless focus on creating real changes rather than perceived ones.

Adventurers who find themselves Conjuration can also be sacrificed comparatively painlessly, in a party with a careless blaster don't need any additional.

They abilities. Evocation, despite being philosophically opposed endeavor to remain constantly aware of where everybody is to transmutation, is considered an asset, shoring up the situated to best apply their spells for maximum effect. It is transmuters effectiveness. Indeed, magicians portrayed in legend and popular Against an advancing army of soldiers, a blaster is completely fiction vary in focus as much as—or even more than—any in his element.

Weaknesses: For the same reason that a blaster is a boon This innate flexibility allows an arcane spellcaster to to any group of adventurers, he can also become a detriment.
