[QUOTE="scholz, post: 785643, member: 10028"] In fact the claim was that Generic Mages should not be in the same campaign as the various colored mages. There are some good reasons for that, for instance multiclassing between the standard Mage and a Colored Mage would be overly front-loaded. I've created some "Frameworks" which are sort of sub-classes for the Mage. In fact they are limitations that Mages can impose on themselves in order to get extra boons: black/white elementalist cannot have the spell from the other list and is limited to one non-elemental spll per level = 1 bonus minor boon; lesser elementalist can only have spells of three related elements and 1 non-elemental spell per level = 1 bonus medium boon, greater elementalist can only have spells of one element period and 1 non-elemental spell per level. I have also looked into a mentalist (with mind-affecting spells only) and a fighter/mage/cleric type (advances 1/2 levels instead of full ones) but gets some better HD and BAB.
