Message: <blockquote data-quote="alkabong" data-source="post: 1125049" data-attributes="member: 14228">With the proposed system, a sorcerer doesn't take any change to his spells known (aka mastered) - they take bonus feats so that they have access to the sorcerer spells known table.  As they gain levels, they choose spell mastery as their bonus feats (at 5th, 10th, etc) so that they can master/know additional spells of higher levels.  Note that a character with a high Intelligence and a low Charisma might find he can cast more prepared spells than mastered ones.This is not quite what I was trying to allow - if I allowed mages to spontaneously cast any spell in their books, it would make this class far too powerful.  Mages can only spontaneously cast a spell if it is mastered.  To master spells of higher levels, they must spend additional feats (character level and/or bonus feats) to gain additional mastered spells, which will come at the expense of goodies like item creation feats and metamagic feats.Your bonus feats are quite close to what I had in mind, but they make the class less a "meta-class" (one which you could construct a wizard or sorcerer out of) and more of range of additional feats that wizards (only) or sorcerers (only) can take.  Still good suggestions, though.  Thanks for taking the time to look this through and provide feedback</blockquote>
