"Mages" [wizards] gain spontaneous casting in spells two levels lower than their max level. So, at 5th level, a mage need not choose/memorize/prepare their 1st level spells, but can use spells (that they know/are in their spellbook, of course!) as needed/the situation arises. At 7th level, this applies to their 1st and 2nd level spell slots. 1-3rd level spells at 9th. Beyond that, 4th+ level, spells must all be chosen/prepared/memorized each day.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Setting-specific: No Barbarian class as written. Homebrewed class/culture used.

Raise Dead through her temple her may or may not come with riders/demands being made/services to be performed upon your return to the mortal realm). 1 Evil (cuz he's an elder god with "tuh powaaah!" like that...that will bring you back to be his slave/lackey for the rest of your, now, unnatural life).</li> </ul>There's probably more, but yeah...all of those definitely "make [my] game better."</blockquote>
