There are two new core classes in Heroes of Horror; the Dread Necromancer (A necromancer who becomes more undead as he gains levels) and the Archivist.
The Archivist is a Sage-like class with a focus on knowledge and lore, but it does have one strange class ability. He is a Divine spellcaster, but uses a spellbook and it is Intelligence based on spell access and DC, but Wisdom based on Bonus spells. {Edited in}
I have long wanted a class like this, but I had always seen it more as an Arcane caster, but now I was wondering, what if they could cast both types of magic?
I would keep the Arcane spells liked to Intelligence and Divine spells linked to Wisdom, which would require two good stats to have access to high levels in both.
As to bonus spells, they might have to decide when they choose their spells which to focus on today, Arcane or Divine.
Considering how many spells Wizards and Clerics already share and that an Archivist would not gain any more spells than either of them, what do you think of a dual type spellcaster?
