Spontaneous Casting and thuergic casters

I was wondering is a thuergic caster (e.g. a w3/c3/mt) could convert his prepared arcane spells into healing (or inflict in case of a neutral or evil cleric) spells.
The SRD just mentions "any prepared spell", not divine spells specificly.

SRD said:
A good cleric (or a neutral cleric of a good deity) can channel stored spell energy into healing spells that the cleric did not prepare ahead of time. The cleric can "lose" any prepared spell that is not a domain spell in order to cast any cure spell of the same spell level or lower (a cure spell is any spell with "cure" in its name).

An evil cleric (or a neutral cleric of an evil deity), can’t convert prepared spells to cure spells but can convert them to inflict spells (an inflict spell is one with "inflict" in its name).

A cleric who is neither good nor evil and whose deity is neither good nor evil can convert spells to either cure spells or inflict spells (player’s choice). Once the player makes this choice, it cannot be reversed. This choice also determines whether the cleric turns or commands undead.

Any opinions on this?

Often times in this game the fact that nothing is written is, in my opinion, intended be a rule. The mystic theurge PrC does not combine the spells or lists of your previous two classes, rather it simply lets you advance in the spellcasting ability of each class separately. Your divine half and arcane half are still seperate entities. They do not share lists and they do abide by each half's restrictions. Since a multiclass cleric/wizard cannot swap out each other's spells then a mystic theurge cannot swap spells between lists, either....


Long-winded, eh? Hope I came across clearly.... :lol:

Later!

No and no, is this just a "common sense" reply? or are there any RAW to back it up?

Well, you won't find a rule, that clearly says "No, you cannot do that!".
You also won't find a rule, that says "Yes, you can do that!".

Obviously, the cleric chapter is about clerics and cleric spells and how clerics cast cleric spells.
Mystic theurges have cleric and wizard spells, but they use them in the same way as clerics and wizards do, just that they have both. Their two spell lists are still distinct and seperate.

There really isn't any more to it.

And why don't you ask whether a specialist wizard/cleric/mystic theurge cannot cast healing spells at all, if he gave up Conjuration as a wizard school? ;)

Bye
Thanee
