[QUOTE="Draugin, post: 1182123, member: 12173"] Sorry I was too foggy. :) So far my Sage has got: -d6 hit dice (d4 was too low), -poor BAB (but it could be upgraded to medium), -strong Will, -8 skill points (base), -casts arcane spells as a bard, but with a different list (too long to translate now since I've written it all in Italian); it has got many divinations, some abjurations and enchantments and a few from other schools (no flashy spells). It has access to some spells from the cleric and druid lists (mainly divinations). -bardic knowledge, -some nonmagical healing abilities and bonuses in certain situations (I will post that). The Sage class should cover the literate/erudite sort of characters (historians, philosophers, physicians/surgeons, travellers etc.) but should also make an interesting PC. Think about Marco Polo, Erodotus, ecc. and put them in a fantasy world. Yes, I know there is a generic Expert NpC class, but I'm trying to make a specific PC class. :) Obviously he should be a backup character, covering the role of a bard and sometimes that of a cleric (his nonmagical healing is good). For example, I'm looking for some really cool uses for the Knowledge skills, special abilities limited to the sage class (something like "trapfinding" for Search and Disable Device to the rogue class). What can you suggest for Knowledge (history) and Knowledge (nobility and royalty)? Hope I was clearer now. :) [/QUOTE]
