Woot.If you are a caster: two options.One, you choose Initiate of a different class to your main class - same as above.Two, you choose a Initiate of your own class: you learn an extra spell but do not add a spell slot. So your number of spells known increases, but your spell slots remain the same. So you have a wee bit more to choose from but the same amount of actual spells to cast.Plus, whatever else you spend your 1st level slots on, you always have your chosen Initiate spell to cast "for free".Crawford's clarification was saying, you can use your initiate spell from your spell slot allocation as well because it's an extra Spell Known.Lets say you have:2 level 1 spell slots2 cantrips4 spells known (away from books buts for the sake of the argument).Taking Initiate in your main class gives you:2 level 1 spell slots (no change)4 cantrips 5 spells known (including the initiate spell)Let's say your level 1 initiate spell is Create Internet Discussion. You can:Cast two other spells plus a "free" casting of Create Internet Discussion, or Cast Create Internet Discussion up to 3 times. No?</blockquote>
