Human (I just like humans) they get that handy bonus feats. Gnome wizards con bonus ofsets the small hit dice a little, plus they are small so more bonuses there. If it is your first wizard, I wouldn't specialize unless you know what you want. The crossbow will be your most used weapon until you gain some levels.Try to plan out your feats ahead of time, depending on what books you have. Spell casting prodgidy is great if it is available to you (FRCS). I'd also recomend eventually heading into the archmage prestiege class. Lots of cool benefits there (if it is available to you, again FRCS).Do not take magic missle, or memorize it at low levels, there are much more useful spells. Charm person works wonders if your in an urban setting, mage armor is always nice for that much needed boost in ac when in the thick of it. Silent image can be great if you have a creative imaginiation. For combat spells, sleep and color spray are your killers here. With a decent intellgence most things will only have a 25-30% chance of making the save. If you wanted to be really effective at low levels (and still so but not to the same extent) at high levels, take spell focus and greater spell focus enchantment as your feats.  Not much will make sleep saves with that dc, and later on you can get the hold spells, suggestion, feeblemind, and charm/dominate monster.</blockquote>
