The Mage's Companion
Wizardry is more than working a charm or brewing a potion. There are fantastic beasts to capture¸ battles to be won¸ and doorways into other worlds that can be opened.
The Mage's Companion is designed for players and referees who need a new challenge for their "name level" characters. Instead of exploring dungeons - learn the secret of why they exist. Instead of fighting fantastic creatures¸ find out how to create constructs and hybrids. If you've ever asked why the tales and tropes about wizards exist¸ but have found no rules that allow yours to live up to them¸ look no further.
Features:
• How did the Wizard dig that Dungeon? (and why did he do it?)
• Ideas for Nefarious Traps (and how much they cost)
• Battle Magic (and its Corrupting effects)
• Crafting Magic Items (and where to find the Secret Ingredients)
• Breeding new Beasts (and why it may bring Divine Intervention)
• Some Familiar spells (and not-so-familiar ones)
• Adding new friends to your Circle (and getting them to leave)
• Animations and Constructs (some are out of this world!)
• A Bestiary of Monsters that get along (and a few that don't)
• Apprentices¸ Libraries¸ and Laboratories (what are they good for?)
If your old school game has gotten a little stale¸ this supplement has more than its fair share of adventure hooks¸ head scratchers¸ and new things to try at the gaming table. At last some FUN for upper-level Wizards and those who dare to travel in their company.
