Besides, we're playing 3.5, where wizards are no longer as menacing as they used to be. They're best at controlling the battlefield and providing buffs so the melee brutes can mop everyone up. I have no problem taking a level away from Faelar, he did craft a lot of items. Besides, he doesn't have the money to craft anything else anyway. I was thinking more of if Ferrix makes a wizard or druid and wanted to scribe a few scrolls he would have to drop a level back to do so.The Conclave of Silverymoon is a magic university set up by Lady Alustriel. "She persuaded several formerly independent centers of lore and learning to combine into a single institution in order to share their learning more effectively and make many fields of study available to students. Lady Alustriel personally defrays the costs of housing and tuition for promising students and sponsors esoteric researches.""The tuition is steep - 500 gp plus 500 gp per wizard level, to a maximum of 4,000 gp per year for a wizard of 7th level. Wizards of 8th level or higher are not accepted as students, but may join the college as "fellows" at a cost of 5,000 gp per year. Students (and fellows) of 5th level or higher who agree to spend half their time serving in the Spellguard pay only half the normal tuition.""Why would anyone pay thousands of gold pieces for the privilege of attending a wizard's college? The answer is simple: Attending a wizard college provides access to many new spells...""First, a student or fellow attempting to learn a new spell gains a +2 bonus on her Spellcraft checks to do so, provided she makes the attempt on the college grounds.""Second, once per quarter a student or fellow may add a spell of her choice to her spellbook for free, just like the new spells gained at each level. She must spend a total of at least 4 hours per day for at least thirty days during the quarter attending classes and studying to gain this benefit.""Third, a student or fellow may copy spells from the college's spellbooks at any time, provided she pays a special fee equal to half the market price of a scroll of that spell. For example, a mage who wishes to copy haste from the college library may do so for a cost of 188 gp.""Finally, a student or fellow may use the college's laboratories and libraries for creating magic items even if she does not have the appropriate item creation feat. The character must pay a special fee equal to 10% of the market price of the item she creates. The wizard must meet all other requirements of the item to be created. For example, a wizard who wanted to create a wand of lightning bolt despite the fact she does not know the Craft Wand feat could do so by using the college's resources - at a cost of 1,125 gp, 10% of the wand's normal market price."</blockquote>
