• Hit points - You start with your constitution score + your max class HD (8 HP for rogues, etc.). You gain hit points as per normal rules.
• Wizards are the item creators and the MetaMagic manipulators. They wring everything they can out of a spell.
• Sorcerers are all about their magical energy. They now have a Sorcerer's focus, similar to a psionic focus, that takes a full-round action to gain. They are good at counter-spelling, absorbing spell energy cast at them, and using or returning it. They also steal energy from items to fuel their own spells or use their own energy to cast spells in items.
Only Clerics may counter cleric prayers, with their deity's faith.
• Scrolls
- Sorcerers may add a spell to their known spells for 1 hour from a scroll. The process takes 1 minute. They may then cast it as if it is on their list for the duration.
- Clerics may cast prayers from scrolls if the spell is on their spell list. It has one MetaMagic Feat attached to it for free, uses up a spell slot, and takes a full-round action.
• Potions - Sorcerers get a bonus to any spells they have as a learned spell. i.e., if it is in their blood, they cast it stronger with a potion of the same spell. i.e., if a sorcerer knows mage armor, and drinks a potion of mage armor, they get a +5 AC/DR bonus. If it is not known by them, they get a +3, as potions are slightly weaker.
- Wizards can hold on to the potion in their body for 1 minute per wizard level they have. i.e., a 4th level wizard who drinks a potion of mage armor can hold it and cast it four minutes later as a swift action.
- Only Alchemists and witches can brew potions.
• Wands - Anyone who wields a wand, or successfully activates a wand with a UMD check, may utilize it with Metamagic feats. Using Metamagic feats increases the UMD check by the number of levels the Metamagic feat requires.
If you want to use your wand of fireball with the maximized, quickened, and silenced Metamagic feats (+3 spell levels, +1 and +4), you use 1 (for the normal) +9, +3, +12 (each tripled) for a total of 25 charges, and a UMD DC of 26. This means you may use the wand twice before it is burnt out. It also is very expensive for just two attacks (or more, depending on how you play it), but you are more likely to use it.
- This is mostly for role-playing flavor -
