Base Features[]
 |
Specialist School - Universalist |
|
Wizards who do not specialize (known as universalists) have the most diversity of all arcane spellcasters. Universalist gains the following abilities:
| |
 |
Arcane Bond - Object |
|
A bonded object can be used once per day to restore any one spell that the wizard had prepared for this day. | |
| No image yet | Focused Spells |
|
At 1st level, once per day the spell master's understanding of spells allows him to increase his caster level by 4 for a single spell cast. He can do this twice per day at 8th level, and three times per day at 16th level. | |
 |
Hand of the Apprentice |
|
You cause your melee weapon to fly from your grasp and strike a foe before instantly returning to you. As a standard action, you can make a single attack using a melee weapon at a range of 30 feet. This attack is treated as a ranged attack with a thrown weapon, except that you add your Intelligence modifier on the attack roll instead of your Dexterity modifier (damage still relies on Strength). This ability cannot be used to perform a combat maneuver. You can use this ability a number of times per day equal to 3 + your Intelligence modifier. | |
| No image yet | Object Bond Specialization |
|
At 5th level and every 5 levels thereafter, a spell master gains an additional use of his arcane bond — object class feature. | |
