Invoker (Specialist Mage)

A wizard who specializes in the manipulation of raw and elemental energies.

School affinity

• School: Invocation/Evocation.
• Opposed schools: Enchantment/Charm and Conjuration/Summoning — Invokers cannot learn spells from either.

Specialist bonus

• One additional spell of each spell level memorisable per day.

When to pick it

• The classic "blaster mage" — extra Magic Missile, Fireball, Lightning Bolt, Cone of Cold, Chain Lightning charges.
• Two opposed schools is the worst restriction in the specialist list — no charm, no summoning, no Stinking Cloud or Web. Best for parties that handle crowd-control elsewhere.
