Wizards Wizards command staggering energies and make dangerous opponents. The power to control magical energies comes from the mind, and as such, Intelligence is very important.

Wizards cannot wear armor, as it not only interferes with the forces they control, but also goes against their way of thinking. They are limited in the number of weapons that they can wield in combat. Permissible weapons are: knife, dagger, staff, darts, and slings.

All wizards have the ability to cast numerous offensive, defensive, and informative spells. The spell progression chart for wizards is below. Just as there are spheres of clerical spells, there also are schools of wizard magic. There are eight schools, and details on them can be found in the Player’s Handbook.

Wizards also possess the capacity to use magical items such as wands, rods, staves, rings, scrolls, and potions. Finally, wizards can create new magical spells and items—from scrolls and elixirs to mighty weapons.
