Hey look, it's not the white-haired witch this time!
Alright, how does the Human's FCB for witches apply to a Ley Line Witch? I'm building one right now with 18 Int, so he should have four cantrips. I think. Can he still take his FCB, giving him five?
Human FCB: Add one spell from the witch spell list to the witch’s familiar.
Ley Line Guardian's Conduit Surge: This ability replaces familiar and the hexes gained at 1st and 8th levels.
You don't have a familiar to add the spell to, so the FCB does nothing.
Ouch, that sucks. Well, at least that gives me a little extra health.
One more question. Since they lose the familiar and turn spontaneous, does that mean they know all of their spells? Are they still able to shuffle them like a witst if they take an hour?
