Sorcerer

Sorcerer
(BASE CLASS)
Sorcerers are arcane spellcasters who manipulate magic energy with imagination and talent rather than studious discipline. They have no books, no mentors, no theories - just raw power that they direct at will. Sorcerers know fewer spells than wizards do and acquire them more slowly, but they can cast individual spells more often and have no need to prepare their incantations ahead of time. Also unlike wizards, sorcerers cannot specialize in a school of magic. Since sorcerers gain their powers without undergoing the years of rigorous study that wizards go through, they have more time to learn fighting skills and are proficient with simple weapons.

WARNING: To cast a spell, a sorcerer must have a Charisma score of 10 + the spell's level. For example, to cast a 9th-level spell, a sorcerer must have a Charisma of 19.

- Hit Die: d18.
- Proficiencies: All simple weapons. Sorcerers are not proficient with armor or shields.
- Skill Points (4 at 1st level): 2 + Intelligence Modifier.
- Spellcasting: Arcane (Charisma-based, no spell preparation, spell failure from armor is a factor).

Mystra, the deity of magic, is one of the patron deities of the Harpers; her predecessor being one of the deities who met at the Dancing Place centuries ago to inspire the founding of the Harpers organization.

Suel Archanamach
(PRESTIGE CLASS)
The ancient Suel Empire was known for the great and terrible power wielded by its mighty archmages. Suloise sorcerers delved deep into arcane lore that other folk avoided, unearthing many dark and dangerous secrets in the process. The Suel Empire was ruled by noble families headed by mages of unsurpassed power, and the countless rivalries and vendettas between these families led to the rise of an elite school of combat training: the way of the Archanamach. Conditioned for loyalty, determination, and absolute obedience, Archanamachs were skillful warriors who studied arcane magics for the express purpose of learning how to slay powerful wizards.
In the days of the Suel Empire, the Archanamachs were guards for their archmage masters, serving the greatest Suel wizards with sword and spell. They were also assassins and spies trained to slay powerful wizards of rival families, as well as defend the wizards of their own families. In hundreds of secret duels of spell and steel, Archanamachs practiced their art against others of their kind, learning their skills from hidden Archanamach academies.
