How far along are you in your studies? The options are Apprentice, Mage and Wizard. What level you are at is determined by how many spells you have learned.

Level Descriptions

Appentice. The trick here is finding someone who has the ability and the time to teach you magic. This usually takes folks a while, so the average age of the Wizard Apprentice is 15. Younger apprentices are allowed only with special BOD approval. If you have a charcater who has started as something else and who now wants to learn magic, roll on the following table to see if you can find a teacher:

Next, you have to study with this person for a certain number of rotations per cantrip. You are only allowed to advance to Mage after you have learned twenty cantrips. This means that most folks never get beyond this point. You are not guaranteed advancement to the next level simply because you've been studying a long time.

To learn a cantrip, you must study for at least two full rotations. At the end of the second rotation, roll a six-sided die (d6). On a roll of 4, 5 or 6, you learn the cantrip. If you roll a 1, 2, or 3, you must study another rotation before you roll again.

To figure out how long the apprentice period took a mage character who is starting play at a higher rank, roll 2 d20 and add 40 to the result. That's how many rotations you have to allow in your character's background for study as an apprentice.

If you are playing an apprentice who is about to advance to mage-level, you must roll a 6 on a d6. You get 19 tries to make this roll, one try every rotation your character is able to study for the full rotation. If you don't make the roll after 19 tries, your character remains at apprentice level forever and simply doesn't have what it takes to make Mage. If you do roll the 6, your character must journey to Tor and be tested by Ailan at the School of Wizards. If Ailan approves, your character may advance in rank.

Mage. If you manage to learn twenty cantrips, you are a mage. That means you get to learn other spells. You need to learn twenty mage spells before you can become a Wizard.

To learn a mage-level spell, you must first complete the requirements for Apprentice level and pass your apprentice exams. Then you must study for at least three full rotations per spell. At the end of the third rotation, roll a six-sided die (d6). On a roll of 5 or 6, you learn the spell. If you roll a 1, 2, 3, or 4, you must study another rotation before you roll again.

To figure out how long the mage period took a wizard character who is starting play at a higher rank, roll 4 d20 and add 60 to the result. That's how many rotations you have to allow in your character's background for study as a mage in addition to what s/he studied as an apprentice.

If you are playing a mage who is about to advance to wizard-level, you must roll a 6 on a d6. You get 19 tries to make this roll, one try every rotation your character is able to study for the full rotation. If you don't make the roll after 19 tries, your character remains at mage level forever and simply doesn't have what it takes to make wizard. If you do roll the 6, your character must journey to Tor and be tested by Ailan at the School of Wizards. If Ailan approves, your character may advance in rank.

Wizard. If you manage to become a Wizard, you can learn all the spells your furry little heart desires. Any spells not listed must be approved by L.A. Malcor. You can message her at Legend@malcor.com.

To learn a wizard-level spell, you must study for at least four full rotations. At the end of the fourth rotation, roll a six-sided die (d6). On a roll of 6, you learn the spell. If you roll 1-5, you must study another rotation before you roll again.

No backdated wizard character starts with a full compliment of spells. To find out how many spells your wizard character has learned, roll a d6. The number that comes up is the number of spells you may choose for your character. Remember to allow study time in your wizard's background! For each spell that your wizard has learned, roll a d20, and that's the number of rotations you must allow in the character's timeline for learning that spell.

Note: While a character is studying for a spell, s/he cannot be doing anything else that rotation. That means your character may not be showing up for RPs and the like when s/he is studying for a spell. If you have a Dragonrider character who is learning magic, that character may only study while on leave (which happens only six times per year). So a Dragonrider character can only learn a maximum of three cantrips or spells per year and will learn less than that if s/he doesn't make the rolls. When backdating a Dragonrider mage, remember to allow only 6 rotations per year instead of the usual 19.

Additional Notes

An apprentice, mage or wizard can create different items that have magical properties, such as potions, scrolls, wands, staves, and weapons. All we ask is that you be a bit reasonable about what you expect your character to create. The person should be able to afford the raw materials (such as lab equipment or a sword) needed for the item and have the time to complete the necessary spells (It takes a lot longer to make a talking sword than to brew up a love potion.).

Here are some ideas for level-appropriate magic items:

• Apprentice-level
  • Potions:
    • love potion
    • mistakes (higher level potions that do a fraction of what they are supposed to do or that do the opposite of what they are supposed to do)
  • Scrolls:
    • Apprentice-level Spells
    • Magic Maps
  • Items:
    • Items of Protection (scarabs, amulets, brooches, rings, etc.)
    • Items that shrink or grow but are otherwise normal
    • Items used by higher-level wizards to create more advanced items
    • Pouches that hold more than they should
• Mage-level
  • Potions:
    • Courage
    • Delusion
    • Healing
    • Obedience
  • Scrolls:
    • Mage-level Spells
    • Spell Books
  • Items:
    • Items that cast spells (like wands and staves)
    • Items use simple spells (like flying carpets and bags that hold more than they should)
    • Magic weapons that don't do anything to advanced
    • Scrying items (like crystal balls)
• Wizard-level
  • Potions:
    • Invisibility
    • Transformation (changing the drinker into something else)
  • Scrolls:
    • Wizard-level Spells
    • Magic Books (Special books, more complicated the normal spell books)
  • Items:
    • Items of Teleporation or Invisibility (such as rings or cloaks)
    • Items that contain other beings (such as magic lamps and rings ala Aladdin)
    • Items use major spells (like magic harps)
    • Magic weapons that use spells or do something else major
    • Staves that cast major spells

If you want your character to create an item that you don't see listed here, contact L.A. Malcor for permission to create the item.

IF THE PRIMARY CONTACT PERSON FOR SOMETHING DOES NOT RESPOND WITHIN A REASONABLE PERIOD OF TIME, CONTACT DRAGONLORD KRIN AT Legend@malcor.com.
