Wizard Spell Learning

All classes capable of casting spells may choose any spells from the Mystical, Primal, Natural, and Illusion schools of magic. Each Wizard-secondary class has access to an exclusive school of magic. However, as they are not primarily Wizards, they will have less mana and spellpower to use them with.

Wizard Primaries are given three spells on character creation and select one spell every even level and two every odd level afterward. However, Wizard-primaries only select skills every 4th level.

Wizard Secondaries have a single spell chosen for them on character creation and select one spell each level afterward. Wizard-secondaries only select active abilities every 3rd level.

Spells are chosen from tiers of magic. Each tier spans across four levels. The first tier is for levels 1-4, the second from 5-8, etc. Characters cannot choose spells from tiers outside their level range.
