Truly I don't care about the FAQ, unless its in the book or a house rule its not part of my games and thats a FAQ, and I have very few house rules.I'm not real sure how anyone thinks the wizard or the sorcerer is too hard or too complicated.  If your a wizard you cast spells.  You have a spell book.  You memorize X amount of spells per day and then cast them.  The next day you do the same thing.  Don't know, but that is pretty simple to me.  There is not a single class in the book that a 12 year old with the appropriate reading level can't understand or figure out, so yeah I'm going to have to stick to simple and easy to learn.</blockquote>
