The Wizardry Magic System is detailed
here.
|
|
Graduate Wizards learned their profession in an institution dedictated to teaching
the Arcane Art in a standardized fashion. The trade off in individualized instruction
was theoretically compensated for by the rigorous course blocks and least common
denominator instruction techniques employed in a formalized class environment.
|
|
Graduates tend to have a very solid textbook grasp on the basics of Wizardly Magic
(or they dont graduate) but also tend towards the inflexible. They also usually
have a complete lack of exposure to other types of Magic and their mindset is typically
not capable of applying basic comprehension of theory to deviations from textbook
examples they may encounter in a real world environment.
|
|
NOTE: Not all students at a University of Magic are necessarily Graduates;
representatives of all five Basic Wizard Packages may be found on campus. For example,
a Journeyman may be a student that is favored by an eccentric professor and receives
more personalized instruction or "do their own thing"; a Gifted student
is the naturally talented type that ignores their instruction, taking only what
they want from it; a Bookworm student would be the geeky over-scholarly type that
misses the bigger picture in favor of the details; a Maven is the type of student
that is really good at certain aspects of the instruction but cannot seem to master
certain others. However, Graduates would likely be the norm at most such schools,
and the ones most likely to maintain their "alumni" status with the school.
|
|
NOTE: Similarly, the Graduate Package may be taken for a character that did
not attend a University of Magic, but wants to use the Spell School model instead
of Spellcraft; simply switch out the Membership Perk with a 1 point Basic 8- Contact
Perk for the character's mentor.
