Awesome! That's what I thought, but I wanted to make sure since I've never really played a Wizard before and am gearing up to play one in an upcoming campaign. I figure I'll add a few higher level spells to my spellbook with starting wealth in order to prepare for leveling up in the future...

If a wizard wants to add spells to his or her spellbook even though they're higher level than they can actually cast, is there any reason they couldn't do so? For instance, if a 3rd level Wizard finds a scroll with a 3rd level (or higher) spell, can they add the spell to their spellbook after...

Sorry, I meant just Paizo sources

I asked about the Artificer from Eberron already but unfortunately my DM has said that he wishes to use only official PF sources. I don't mind that he wants to do this, it'll make playing this sort of character more challenging and fun for me. I just want to make sure I provide the recommended...

I've got some questions about making a character who is the group's item crafter. Looking around it sounds like Wizard is the best option for doing this, especially with the Arcanamirium Crafter "specialty school" available for them. Obviously, having all the Item Creation feats would be Sky...

I'm working on each of their backstories. Would you like me to post them here, so you can give opinions based on those rather than on mechanical and/or party roles?

We're going to be starting a new campaign next Wednesday. One of my players wanted to take his turn DMing and wanted us to make new characters for his game. We're going to be level 3 and playing in a homebrew game taking place in Golarion where we're either from or traveled to a small town...

If I make a Strix Monk and want to grab an enemy and then take flight with him, would I need Improve Drag to do so, or would Improve Grapple be sufficient for this maneuver?

Ah, I understand. More for roleplaying purposes. I like stuff like that for characters, I just wasn't sure if there was anything in particular I was missing. Thank you!

What's the point of having ranks in the Craft skill if you can use Spellcraft for magic item creation?

Is there a feat which increases the range of a spell from Personal to Touch or Close? I know there's Reach Spell (Metamagic), but that doesn't mention anything about Personal. For instance, if I were playing a Diviner, could I make True Strike effect another person by using any metamagic...

Okay, cool. So I'll assume I can, but I will check with my DM regarding whether or not he wants to houserule otherwise. Thanks so much!

Quick question... If I'm playing a Wizard with Evocation as a banned school and have Magic Missile in my spellbook, can I cast Magic Missile through a wand without difficulty, or do I have to roll a UMD to activate it? Thanks!

I want to make sure I understand this feature of the Titan Mauler properly. If the Titan Mauler is adept at using inappropriately sized weapons, specifically using 2-Handed weapons in one hand, and they become more and more skilled at using these weapons, are they able to use a Large 2-Handed...

Right on :)

I've got a follow up question for this thread. In a game for 5th level characters I'm going to be running several types of Lycanthropes will be involved (Were- -rats, -boars, and a -tiger). The PCs overhear other patrons of the inn and tavern talking about the strange behavior of town...

Like I said, I'm going to give it a shot at the higher level. If it does not work out because they have difficulties I'll have them level down for the next session. I have faith in these players, I'm 95% positive that they'll be able to handle the higher level start and will have a great first...

I like the idea about a skeleton changing forms, I might use that even though it's not in the rules. Suddenly, the apparently human skeleton's bone structure shifts into a more "beastal" appearance leading the characters to question whether or not it is actually a human. In that state it gains...

I don't think there's anything special to keep in mind, but I wanted to ask anyway. If a Cleric uses Animate Dead on a deceased NPC with lycanthrope, does anything special happen? Or do they rise as a normal skeleton or zombie in the same way any other creature would?

I'm going to give it a whirl with the higher level characters. If things don't work out well, I'll have them lower their levels but I think the group will be able to handle it. They did make their own characters, which I agree will help them connect with them and allow them to have a better...
