Modern Wizard Archetype

[Kenneth New]

Modern Wizard Archetype

The modern wizard archetype uses the standard wizard class from the core rules with the following modifications.

Weapons: a modern wizard may take proficiency with firearms instead of crossbows.

Spells: A modern wizard prepares spells from their spellbook like any other wizard. They also get a number of spell slots each day based on their level. They get bonus spell slots per day for high Intelligence. They do not get to prepare more spells per day based on High Intelligence.

Specialist Wizards may prepare one extra spell from their school at each level 1st - 9th. It takes two preparation slots to prepare a spell from an opposed school.

Modern Wizards gain powers based on their school, like other wizards. They also gain the wizard's bonus feat at 1st, 5th, 10th, 15th and 20th level. If they desire, a 1st level Modern Wizard may take any wizard bonus feat in place of Scribe Scroll.
