[QUOTE="HeavenShallBurn, post: 3013746, member: 39593"] [b]I think you have to go back to 2e for that[/b] Other than Lost Empires of FR I haven't found any 3e book that covers that time period adequately. Nor have I found any decent WOTC official 3e interpretations of the Arcanist class. But there is the 2e Netheril Age of Magic it had the original Netherese Arcanist class with background information on the time, described important and well known arcanists. A list of spells known in the time of Netheril with their period names. It was part of the boxed set and only contained part of what you're looking for you'd need the entire boxed set to get it all. But the book itself is over on the WOTC site as a free download. As for 3e conversions, Kain Darkwind did a very good direct conversion of the 2e class from that source on the WOTC boards. It was still up last time I went through there but that was a few months ago. If you can't find it give me a holler and I can e-mail you. BLATANT PLUG!!!
