(sorry for the pun) for instance, you could imagine - not a stretch, since the whole game is about imagining - that your wizard is a new and rare form of mage called a "tinker" because they summon semi-robotic, steampunk like constructs to do their bidding. also, during the 1 round casting time (which tinkers call "assembling"), the bits of iron, steel and wood that actually constitute the creature they're summoning whirl around and rapidly assemble themselves within moments, ready to do their creator's bidding; furthermore, he records his spells on extremely thin gears of metal, using a blocky, numerical-like script, etc. when he casts "mage armour" a slowly spinning gear phases in to guard him; when he casts "magic missile", the sound of sputtering steam-cannons belch and magically, searing bolts of iron hurl toward his foes; should he cast "identify", a rotating series of gears and magnifying glasses magically adorn his head like goggles, forever whirling and rotating, helping him see the underlying "blueprints" of other, more traditional magics; you get the idea. mechanically, you're still a conjuror; thematically, you're something that will really impress people and stick out as new and unique. at any rate, try this link here for some extra ideas about conjuration magic: <a href="http://www.d20srd.org/srd/variant/classes/specialistWizardVariants.htm#conjurerVariants" target="_blank">Specialist Wizard Variants :: d20srd.org</a> <a href="http://www.d20srd.org/srd/variant/classes/specialistWizardVariants.htm#conjurerVariants" target="_blank">http://www.d20srd.org/srd/variant/classes/specialistWizardVariants.htm#conjurerVariants</a></blockquote>
