We have introduced a number of new spells. [[Custom_Spells|Here]] is an exhaustive list of the [[Custom_Spells|custom spells]] which we have implemented to date for Wizards and Sorcerers.
=Familiars=
Familiars in EFU have been changed to creatures that more accurately reflect the setting.


This is a list of current familiars. Some of these are completely custom for EfU, while a few others have been extensively modified for balance purposes. For familiars, please note that spellcasters need not have a familiar that shares their alignment, but deliberately picking a familiar with a diametrical opposite alignment is discouraged.
'''Cantrips:''' Cantrips are unlimited on EFU. The slots are automatically refreshed after casting.
==Bat==
'''Alignment:''' True Neutral


The nightshrieker possesses an ability few can emulate: sonar. This allows the bat to strike with surgical precision, but it sadly lacks momentum to be of much use against big opponents. On the other hand, the sonar also grants a near perfect nightvision which is excellent for reconnaissance.
=Custom Arcane Spells=  
==Rat==
We have introduced a number of new spells. [[Custom_Spells|'''Here''']] is an exhaustive list of the custom spells which we have implemented for Wizards and Sorcerers.
'''Substitutes:''' Panther


'''Alignment:''' True Neutral
=Custom Specialization and Opposed Schools= 
EFU has implemented changes to the opposed schools for wizards who choose a school of magic specialization at creation. The schools and their opposed pairs as as follows:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Specialist School !! Opposed School
|-
| Abjuration || Evocation
|-
| Conjuration    || Transmutation
|-
| Divination    || Illusion
|-
| Enchantment    || Evocation
|-
| Evocation      || Conjuration
|-

|}


A traditional choice for arcane spellcasters, centuries have proven the rat a faithful companion. Often Underestimated due to it's size, the rat is capable of going places and seeing things that others cannot. With proper care, it won't even smell. Very much.
Otherwise the spell school specialization works as before: wizards gain one additional spell slot per spell level while losing the ability to cast spells from an opposed school. This prohibition extends to spells cast from scrolls, but not to spells cast from other kinds of items. In addition, specialist wizards have a bonus (+2) to identifying spells (through spellcraft) from their area of expertise and a penalty (-5) to identifying spells from the opposing school.  
==Floating Skull==
'''Substitutes:''' Hell Hound


'''Alignment:''' Chaotic Evil
Specialist wizards must also select spell focus in their chosen school prior to selecting focus in other schools. See [[Server_Rules#Wizard_School_Specialization,_Spell_Focus,_and_Greater_Spell_Focus|Guidlines and Rules]].


A floating, seemingly sentient skull with it's origins shrouded in mystery. While few know much of them, most who behold them find the sight frightening and most who hear their endless ramblings find it maddening. Such a familiar is boasting material only in few and small circles.
=Generalists and Impromptu Arcana=
A generalist wizard (a wizard who selects no spell school specialization) is given the '''Impromptu Arcana''' ability at creation. This ability allows the wizard to restore a spent spell slot of any level she can cast once per day.


This familiar is capable of intelligent conversation.
=Other class changes=  
==Imp==
Weapon Proficiency (Wizard) now includes Sling.
'''Alignment:''' Lawful Evil


Small but insidious devils often bound to the service of sorcerers and wizards. Imps have a gleeful attraction to pranks, riddles, and bawdy jokes and a natural apptitude for magic.

*[[Familiars#Rat|Rat]]
Highly intelligent coastal birds that have learned to co-exist with civilization in a scavenger role.

Although among the smarter species of birds, parrots are nevertheless more exotic as familiars, in part because of their relative rarity but as well because they tend to be overly possessive of their masters.

'''Substitutes:''' Pixie
 
'''Alignment:''' True Neutral
 
A niche more than a practicality, the chicken can provide hours upon hours of fun for its owner and act as an excellent vessel for magical energies. Easily frightened and seemingly lacking in mental capacity, those who have gazed into the eyes of a bound chicken swear they've seen something mezmerizing in those beady little eyes.
 
==Raven==
'''Alignment:''' True Neutral
 
Prized for its intelligence and cunning, the classy raven remains an ever popular choice of familiar. The blue-black bird possesses an almost unmatched aptitude for learning and adapting to unique situations, and its beak makes an excellent tool both for opening clasps and plucking out eyes.
 
This familiar can memorize a few simple phrases, but not lead an intelligent conversation.
==Snake==
'''Substitutes:''' Faerie Dragon
 
'''Alignment:''' True Neutral
 
Cunning hunters, snakes are often seen as lazy due to their preference to let their prey come to them. When pressed, however, snakes are quick, agile, and many possess extremely potent venoms. In many cases, a familiar shares traits with its master, so for rotund or crafty spellcasters to have snake familiars is not uncommon.
 
==Ooze==
'''Substitutes:''' Pseudodragon
 
'''Alignment:''' True Neutral
 
These amorphous creatures resemble tiny cubes of gelatinous goo. As actual lab tools, the unique ability of oozes to absorb and assimilate nearly anything have proven especially useful over time. Unfortunately, they do not care for being handled, and many who have tried have found they have little desire to do so again.
 
==Eyeball==
'''Alignment:''' Chaotic Evil


No larger than the size of a fist in diameter, the eyeball is a particularly frightening creature to command, not surprisingly because of its resemblance to the significantly larger beholder. The many taboos surrounding these alien natured creatures means only the most eccentric people would ever consider binding one as a familiar.

Spellcasting

Arcane (spell failure from armor is a factor), intelligence-based (a base intelligence score of 10 + the spell's level is required to cast a spell, bonus spells are based on modified intelligence, and the intelligence modifier affects spell DCs), and requires preparation. Wizards begin the game knowing all cantrips and four three + intelligence modifier 1st-level spells.

Cantrips: Cantrips are unlimited on EFU. The slots are automatically refreshed after casting.

Custom Arcane Spells

We have introduced a number of new spells. Here is an exhaustive list of the custom spells which we have implemented for Wizards and Sorcerers.

Custom Specialization and Opposed Schools

EFU has implemented changes to the opposed schools for wizards who choose a school of magic specialization at creation. The schools and their opposed pairs as as follows:

Specialist School Opposed School
Abjuration Evocation
Conjuration Transmutation
Divination Illusion
Enchantment Evocation
Evocation Conjuration
Illusion Divination
Necromancy Divination
Transmutation Conjuration

Otherwise the spell school specialization works as before: wizards gain one additional spell slot per spell level while losing the ability to cast spells from an opposed school. This prohibition extends to spells cast from scrolls, but not to spells cast from other kinds of items. In addition, specialist wizards have a bonus (+2) to identifying spells (through spellcraft) from their area of expertise and a penalty (-5) to identifying spells from the opposing school.

Specialist wizards must also select spell focus in their chosen school prior to selecting focus in other schools. See Guidlines and Rules.

Generalists and Impromptu Arcana

A generalist wizard (a wizard who selects no spell school specialization) is given the Impromptu Arcana ability at creation. This ability allows the wizard to restore a spent spell slot of any level she can cast once per day.

Other class changes

Weapon Proficiency (Wizard) now includes Sling.
