Finishing Touches


Possible Affiliations and Rivals


Commentary:

Battle Casters have a long tradition of providing communications and other services on the battlefield. Before the introduction of empowered Comlinks, telepathy spells were the most viable method of receiving and deploying orders throughout Eldlandria.

The Battle Caster’s spells make them good at what they do. Some of those spells include: Flaming Surface, Swift Healing, Globe of Light, Object of Light, Barrier Against Remote Senses, Magical Shield, Lift Object, Broadcast, Mind Link, Telepathic Communication, Fog, Blasting Wind, Calm Weather, and Stormy Weather.

Once the character can afford it, they will probably want to obtain a Mage Gauntlet, which can help with casting spells more efficiently.



Notes:

This character currently has 9 MP. Ancient Sign = 6, Social Class = +0 Charisma = +2, Increased Magic Points Feat = +1.
