My Elven Wizard as started adventuring as part of her magical university's "mandatory study-abroad program" (they want students to go out and develop a proper understanding of the outside world, and in my elf's case to learn some humility while she's at it). As a roleplay thing, I'd like to be able to list of her knowledge rolls or other things she knows as "Oh yeah, I read about/studied/wrote an essay collection about [sting of knowledge here]"

Please help me come up with names of some of the courses she took! Ridiculous liberal artsy sounding names would be hilarious.

"Normal" sounding classes are needed as well. Everyone has to take their basics like Magical Laws and Ethics.

Background: One of my good friends and I were discussing halfling feats, especially the one allowing halflings bonuses against foes of larger size categories. "Too bad this is a race exclusive feat, or else you could make, like, a pixie barbarian or something." Of course, this idea sounded ridiculous and I NEED to build it.

The Idea: "Name's Glitterpuff Snoweye. Call me Puff. Call me 'Cute' and you die." I need a tiny bloodrager that can back up her "don't call me cute" attitude as strongly as possible.

Here's the race (DM approved) for 15 RP
-fey (2 RP)
-tiny(4 RP)
-slow speed (-1 RP)
-weakness modifiers (-1 RP) {+2 CON +2 CHA -4 WIS}
-standard language abilities (0 RP)
-fey damage resistance ( 3 RP)
-flight (40 ft poor) (6 RP)
-enclave protector (2 RP)
The size bonus to flight negates the poor flight penalty. Constant nondetection is lovely along with abjuration bonuses and spelllike abilities. And who doesn't love DR?

This yields a bonus spread of -2 STR, +2 DEX, +2 CON, -4 WIS, +2 CHA.
I've done a 20 point buy for 15 STR, 12 DEX, 16 CON, 10 INT, 6 WIS, 14 CHA.

Do you guys have any advice on feats, magic items, or other ways for this pixie to punch a guy across the room?

There is literally a MAGICAL GIRL archetype for paladins and nobody talks about it.

I want discussion about this hilarious and fun archetype!

Let me introduce you to the Chosen One for Paladin. A young hero is greeted by an emissary familiar sent be Deity-Of-Choice and grants the young hero great powers to defeat the forces of evi... its a magical girl archetype. It exists. Your welcome, nerds.

Or maybe, and this is something I've been toying with for my heretics, for people as focused on magic as elves, it's strange that magic isn't a larger part of Calistria's portfolio, though Knowledge is one of her domains. Adding Chaos and Trickery into the mix, perhaps Calistria does know a great magical secret, but she seduced Nethys to get it, and the god of magic hasn't noticed yet, which is just how Calistria wants it, so she's keeping it very secret indeed. Or so your character believes.

Now THIS is something I (and my DM) could really work with.
