Message: <blockquote data-quote="Cam Banks" data-source="post: 3934796" data-attributes="member: 3817">Dragonlance wizards are core wizards. The Wizard of High Sorcery prestige class is a 10-level class they can take at their 5th character level but there is no requirement for them to take it. All they have to do is pass the Test before they cast 3rd level spells. That's an in-game event, roleplayed out. If they are invested in the Orders they can then pursue the PrC, but not having the PrC does not make you a renegade wizard.It's the same with Knights of Solamnia. Most are fighters, fighter/nobles, or occasionally paladins or rangers. They take levels in a Knight of Solamnia prestige class to reflect a commitment to their Order.In 4e I imagine all of this will be handled by paragon paths, and before that (at the heroic tier) by a combination of recommended feats and class powers.My hope was that the mage traditions would be packages of suggested feats and powers, provided as an example of how a mage tradition might work. I would prefer that the feats taken by Emerald Frost mages, Golden Wyvern adepts, etc not have their names attached to them. Otherwise I'll just have to say "and White Robe mages usually take Golden Wyvern Adept even though nobody calls it that."Dragonlance has had plenty of core revision over the last 20 years. I am not all that keen on the prospect of coming up with a Golden Wyvern tradition within the Orders of High Sorcery just because the 4e designers thought it would be a cool hook for new players and some fun IP.Cheers,Cam</blockquote>
