This isyetm will work with regular D$D, Shock point (Ala d20 modern) and Grim N Gritty equally wellThe Sorcerer and Wizard are rolled into one class-- The Mage. A mage has the normal abilities of a wizard, the simple weapons feat and wizard bonus feats. He must choose 1 prime attribute either Charisma or Intellegence.There is no prepping of spells. Instead a mage learns spells as she can find them. The training of each level will gain the Mage access to three 3 new spellsAdditional spells are learned through study and if available may be purchased at 100 per level Note that there are no scribing costs.Skill list are as follows If Charisma is chosen his skill list  is Concentration (Con), Craft (Int), Profession (Wis), Scry (Int, exclusive skill),  Diplomacy (Cha), Intimidation (CHa) Bluff (Cha) Knwledge Arcana (Int) 2 Extra Knowledges (Int)and Spellknowing (Cha)If Intellegence is his chosen ability the list is are Alchemy (Int), Concentration (Con), Craft (Int), Knowledge (all skills, taken individually) (Int), Profession (Wis), Scry (Int, exclusive skill),  Gadgetry (Int) Alchemy (Int) and Spellcraft (Int)Instead of spells per day the Mage has Mana points Mana points are calculated as total of all spells per day (as Wizard) + 1 pt per spell level available each day.Frex: 6th level mage: 16 Cha prime attribute--his power pool is Total spells 4,3,3, 2 =12+Total Levels 4 x 0 +3 x 1+ 3 x 2+ 2 x 3= 27+Bonus spell1 l0 + 1 l1 +1 l2 +1 l3= total of 33Each spell cost level+meta magic feat + 1Offensive spells cost an additional +1 per die inflicted (max as usual) Thus a fifth level fireball costs 9 pointsOTOH a powerword kill costs only 10 (of course you have to be 17th level and have a prime attribute of 19 to cast it)To use a Meta magic feats you must be able to cast a spell of the spell level +meta magic featE.G.-- 10 die maximized lightning bolt requires a 13th level caster and costs 3+1+10+4 a whopping 18 points.A Meteor Swarm cost 34!!
