== Base Classes ==

'''Multiclass Restrictions''' - Monk/Druid is not allowed to be created due to the power of the build.

=== Barbarian ===
[[File:DBEPpoU - Imgur.png|right|220px]]
----
; Description
: Barbarians are brave, even reckless warriors, and their great strength and heartiness makes them well suited for adventure. Barbarians scornfully reject the fighter traditions of arms training and discipline, instead tapping into a powerful rage that makes them stronger, tougher, and better able to withstand attacks. They only have the energy for a few such displays per day, but it is usually sufficient. Constant exposure to danger also gives barbarians a sort of "sixth sense," a preternatural ability to sense danger and dodge attacks, and their running stamina is legendary. 

; Alignment Restrictions
: Non-Lawful 

; Mechanical Changes
* Class skill points changed to 5 per level
* Tumble has been added as a Barbarian Class Skill
* Number of Rages per day has been increased by 1
* Barbarian Damage Reduction now granted at levels 6, 9th, 12th, and 15th instead of as normal.

 

; Special Details
: None.
 

=== Bard ===
[[File:Bard.jpg|right|220px]]
----
; Description
: Bards often serve as negotiators, messengers, scouts, and spies. They love to accompany heroes (and villains) to witness heroic (or villainous) deeds firsthand, since a bard who can tell a story from personal experience earns renown among his fellows. A bard casts arcane spells without any advance preparation, much like a sorcerer. His magic emphasizes charms and illusions, and the bard can also play an inspiring song that strengthens him and his allies. Bards also share some specialized skills with rogues, and their knowledge of item lore is nearly unmatched. 

; Alignment Restrictions
: Non-Lawful 

; Mechanical Changes
: None 

; Special Details
: None. 

=== Cleric ===
[[File:948388f6a982bc947afcfed91d2e5536.jpg|right|220px]]
----
; Description
: Clerics act as intermediaries between the earthly and the divine (or infernal) worlds. A good cleric helps those in need, while an evil cleric seeks to spread his patron's vision of evil across the world. All clerics can heal wounds and bring people back from the brink of death, and powerful clerics can even raise the dead. Likewise, all clerics have authority over undead creatures, and they can turn away or even destroy these creatures. Clerics are trained in the use of simple weapons, and can use all forms of armor and shields without penalty, since armor does not interfere with the casting of divine spells. In addition to his normal complement of spells, every cleric chooses to focus on two of his deity's domains. These domains grant the cleric special powers, and give him access to spells that he might otherwise never learn. 

; Alignment Restrictions
: Special, see below. 

; Mechanical Changes
: Cleric's alignment and domain choices are now restricted to their choice of deity (Written in during character creation, or by talking to a certain npc before entering the story). For every incorrect domain a cleric will suffer 20% spell failure. For every opposing axis of alignment a cleric will suffer 10% spell failure. Not picking a deity at all will cause a cleric to suffer 100% spell failure. See "Cleric Domains" for a full list of valid deities and their associated alignments and domains.

 

; Special Details

: '''Divine Worshipper / Domains''': To be a Cleric in Netheril, you have to represent your [[Deities|Deity]] if you want their blessings. This means you must cast from within their [[Cleric Domains|Domains]], and you must espouse their ideals by remaining true to their alignment. For every incorrect domain a cleric will suffer 20% spell failure. For every opposing axes of alignment a cleric will suffer 10% spell failure. Not picking a deity at all will cause a cleric to suffer 100% spell failure. 

=== Druid ===
[[File:7lwjnJc - Imgur.jpg|right|220px]]
----
; Description
: Druids are divine spellcasters who receive their spells from nature, not the gods. They strive to live in harmony with the natural world, and hate anything that is not part of the natural cycle, especially aberrations and undead creatures. As they gain experience, they learn to take the shapes of animals and eventually of more powerful creatures. The strict oaths taken by every druid prohibit using weapons and armor outside their traditions. 

; Alignment Restrictions
: Any Neutral. 

; Mechanical Changes
: None 

; Special Details
: '''Nature Magic:''' Must select a [[Deities|god]] or mother nature in order to be able to channel energy for spellcasting. 

=== Fighter ===
[[File:22kOwb8 - Imgur.jpg|right|220px]]
----
; Description
: Fighters can be many things, from soldiers to criminal enforcers. Some see adventure as a way to get rich, while others use their skills to protect the innocent. Fighters have the best all-around fighting capabilities of the PC classes, and they are trained to use all standard weapons and armor. A fighter's rigorous martial training grants him many bonus feats as he progresses, and high-level fighters have access to special melee maneuvers and exotic weapons not available to any other character. 

; Alignment Restrictions
: Any. 

; Mechanical Changes
* Second wind power granted at 1st level, 1/day special ability to recover (Fighterlevel * CON) HP to self. 

; Special Details
: None. 

=== Monk ===
[[File:UGyRSw2 - Imgur.png|right|220px]]
----
; Description
: Monks are versatile warriors skilled at fighting without weapons or armor. Good-aligned monks serve as protectors of the people, while evil monks make ideal spies and assassins. Though they don't cast spells, monks channel a subtle energy, called ki. This energy allows them to perform amazing feats, such as healing themselves, catching arrows in flight, and dodging blows with lightning speed. Their mundane and ki-based abilities grow with experience, granting them more power over themselves and their environment. Monks suffer unique penalties to their abilities if they wear armor, as doing so violates their rigid oaths. Monks wearing armor lose their wisdom and level based armor class bonuses, their movement speed, and their additional unarmed attacks per round. 

; Alignment Restrictions
: Any Lawful. 

; Mechanical Changes
* Class skill points changed to 5 per level
* Spot, Search, and Taunt added as class skills.
* Changed to d10 HD
 

; Special Details
: None. 

=== Ranger ===
[[File:SkvA3Np - Imgur.jpg|right|220px]]
----
; Description
: Rangers are skilled stalkers and hunters who make their home in the wilderness. Their martial skill is nearly the equal of the fighter, but they lack the latter's dedication to the craft of fighting. Instead, the ranger focuses his skills and training on a specific enemy - a type of creature he bears a vengeful grudge against and hunts above all others. Rangers often accept the role of protector, aiding those who live in or travel through the woods. His skills allow him to move quietly and stick to the shadows, especially in natural settings, and he also has special knowledge of certain types of creatures. Finally, an experienced ranger has such a tie to nature that he can actually draw on natural power to cast divine spells, much as a druid does, and like a druid he is often accompanied by animal companions. 

; Alignment Restrictions
: None. 

; Mechanical Changes
* Rangers now gain Evasion at level 12
* Class skill points changed to 6 per level
* Added spells to class spell list:
** Bull's Strength as a 2nd level spell
** Endurance as a 2nd level spell
** Charm Person or Animal as a 2nd level spell
** Dominate Animal as a 3rd level spell
** Greater Magic Weapon as a 4th level spell
** Negative Energy Protection as a 4th level spell

 

; Special Details
: '''Nature Magic:''' Must select a [[Deities|god]] or mother nature in order to be able to channel energy for spellcasting. 

=== Rogue ===
[[File:ACKsAwG - Imgur.jpg|right|220px]]
----
; Description
: Rogues have little in common with each other. While some - maybe even the majority - are stealthy thieves, many serve as scouts, spies, investigators, diplomats, and simple thugs. Rogues are versatile, adaptable, and skilled at getting what others don't want them to get. While not equal to a fighter in combat, a rogue knows how to hit where it hurts, and a sneak attack can dish out a lot of damage. Rogues also seem to have a sixth sense when it comes to avoiding danger. Experienced rogues develop nearly magical powers and skills as they master the arts of stealth, evasion, and sneak attacks. In addition, while not capable of casting spells on their own, a rogue can sometimes "fake it" well enough to cast spells from scrolls, activate wands, and use just about any other magic item. 

; Alignment Restrictions
: None. 

; Mechanical Changes
: Evasion moved to level 4, Uncanny dodge 1 moved to level 2. 

; Special Details
: None. 

=== Sorcerers ===
[[File:AHHXvkf - Imgur.jpg|right|220px]]
----
; Description
: Sorcerers are arcane spellcasters who manipulate magic energy with imagination and talent rather than studious discipline. They have no books, no mentors, no theories - just raw power that they direct at will. Sorcerers know fewer spells than wizards do and acquire them more slowly, but they can cast individual spells more often and have no need to prepare their incantations ahead of time. Also unlike wizards, sorcerers cannot specialize in a school of magic. Since sorcerers gain their powers without undergoing the years of rigorous study that wizards go through, they have more time to learn fighting skills and are proficient with simple weapons. 

; Alignment Restrictions
: None. 

; Mechanical Changes
* Changed to d6 HD
* Base attack bonus changed to "3/4ths" Progression, same as bard.
* Wizard Bonus feats at levels 5, 10, 15, 20. a handful of martial feats can be selected using these bonus feats.
 

; Special Details
: '''Power Source:''' Sorcerers draw their power either from pacts, or awakened bloodlines to exotic powers; character's should be aware which they are drawing from. The four main sources are: Infernal, Abyssal, Draconic, Fey.
:: '''Awakened Bloodlines:''' Awakened bloodlines assumes your character has some small, dilute remnant of exotic-blood in them from a distant ancestor. This ancestor is half-a-dozen or more generations distant, unless the character is a partial-exotic race of that type i.e.: [[Races#Tiefling|Tiefling]], [[Races#Cambion|Cambion]], [[Races#Half-Dragon|Half-Dragon]] etc.
:: '''Pacted:''' Either to enhance a concentration of existing planar-blood, or to make up for a lack there of, some mortals may choose to make pacts with powerful planar entities, to substitute their patron's power to empower their own. The result of this union may be the awakening of a bloodline unawakened, the enhancement of one already awakened, or, in the cases of no prior bloodline, the appropriate substitute to power their arcane-efforts.
 

=== Wizard ===
[[File:Wizard.jpg|right|220px]]
----
; Description
: Wizards are arcane spellcasters who depend on intensive study to create their magic. To wizards, magic is not a talent but a difficult, rewarding art. When they are prepared for battle, wizards can use their spells to devastating effect. When caught by surprise, they are vulnerable. The wizard's strength is her spells; everything else is secondary. She learns new spells as she experiments and grows in experience, and she can also learn them from other wizards. In addition, over time a wizard learns to manipulate her spells so they go farther, work better, or are improved in some other way. A wizard can call a familiar, a magical creature, small or large, that serves her.

Things to know about Netheril

2021-07-18T10:29:01Z

ElvenStarr: /* Winning! I want to win Netheril: Age of Magic!! */

== Welcome to Netheril: Age of Discovery ==
Greetings and welcome to Netheril: Age of Discovery, a Neverwinter Nights Enhanced Edition Persistent World. Netheril is a roleplay server where everyone is welcome to log in and begin their characters journey where political intrigue and harsh lands await you.

This server is based around what the Netherese dubbed "The Golden Age - The First Falling", 2002 marks the end of Netheril's Golden Age when the nation was at the very pinnacle of its power and moving to the beginnings of the Netheril's Age of Discovery. Those familiar with the Forgotten Realms setting would know that this is set in -2154 DR which is an ancient time where the world is very different to how it is represented in the original game setting.

''It has been a long wait, but at last the return of the Netheril Age of Discovery server is imminent! Our DM and development team have been hard at work these past months upgrading and reinventing the server. While some elements of the previous incarnation remain, our new version is set 150 years later and a new city, Conch, will serve as the primary hub for the player characters.

Among the new features you will find on “Netheril v2” are many new maps, new quests, three all new DM factions and plenty of hooks for player factions, much improved loot, a more intuitive crafting system, new spells and a wealth of new domains and deities for clerics. A unique new housing system has been added which allows unprecedented customisation of a player character’s home or base. All new enemies and challenges await players, along with the strong RP focus for which the server is known. Netheril Age of Discovery will officially live Beta launch on 25th July 2021 … we hope to see you there!
''

== Roleplaying your character ==
Netheril: Age of Discovery is, above all else, a roleplaying server. This means the story your character tells/is involved in should be at the forefront of how you play the game and should be the focus of what you do when thinking about your character.

== What is "Roleplaying"? ==
Roleplaying is living your character. It means reacting to the people, places, sights, sounds and smells of the server based on the background you have given your character.

For example:
You are playing a mighty warrior who is a fearless fighter, however when he was young his home burned down - he could be scared of fire, fire-based enemies or even fire based spells, vowing never to have his sword alight as it reminded him of his burning home.

You are playing a dashing rogue thief who, when he was a young boy, became lost in a forest and was chased out by spiders - you would show fear toward spiders, and particularly try and help hunt down people who used poison as a weapon for example.

So keep in mind that you are free to build your character as you like, but play the character to reflect these physical and tangible flaws, as well as strengths.

'''Huh, showing fear makes my character weak!'''

There is nothing wrong with showing fear and having that as a part of a character's story. Fears and weaknesses are what make characters feel alive, and some of the best moments of roleplay are when your character has his back against the wall like that. The fear/weakness your character has can help someone else's story develop, which in turn makes the world more interesting for you.

== Ok then, what stats do I need to succeed? ==
If you are playing an 8 Charisma fighter then portray them as a grunt/footsoldier and not as a fearless leader! If you are playing a bard with 1 Perform then have him be rubbish at singing or writing epic stories! If you are playing a crooked guard with 1 Bluff you are probably going to be caught when you lie about what your motives are! All depends on what character you want to play! Succeeding doesn't mean winning, either.

== Winning! I want to win Netheril: Age of Discovery!! ==
You can't really win, sadly! Part of the reason people play RP servers is to craft a story, with a start a middle and an end. You have to go into playing with the notion that at some point your character will die, and his story will be over. But the impression left on the world is the closest you can get to a win. It's not the final goal you want to achieve that's important, it's the story you tell on the way to getting there.

== Player Death and Respawn Penalty ==
Death Happens; fortunately you live in a world where death is not the end, but in order to give it some meaning in our setting we have developed a Death System to represent this.

Level 3 and Under: no penalty and no level or xp loss on respawning
Level 4 and Above: 15% deduction of your total experience points to respawn (can't go below level 4)
Level 4 and Above; Raise Dead Spell: 10% deduction of your total experience points to get raised
Level 4 and Above; Resurrection Spell 5% deduction of your total experience points to get resurrected
Netheril Player Versus Player Guidelines
These are the player versus player rules that apply in the town of Conch and the lands surrounding it. There are certain aspects of PvP that are just common sense, the main one being:
"Do not do something to others you would not like done to you."

== Player Factions ==
Starting up a player faction can be done by anyone in the game, if you are pushing your story and involving a group of players there is no reason you cannot work to establishing your own faction or taking over your own plot of land. When you have three or more members in your group you can request a forum from anyone of the DM team. What DM’s will be looking for are groups that have interesting ideas and stories that they independently push along, involving a wide range of people on the server especially those outside of your group and above all else making it fun for not only yourself but others.

== Forum Spying ==
While forum spying isn't against the rules, there are certain stipulations that must be seen to before it can be deemed to have happened. Firstly, it must be done with the permission of the DM, and it must be done ingame with a DM overseeing, to properly represent the risks that are taken with stealing files from a factions' base.

== Exploits ==
If you come across something in the game that seems too good to be true it probably is.

Such things could include, but not limited to: A merchant that offers an item at a ridiculously low price or a merchant who will buy an item for more then you paid for it or you find something that drops on a quest that is above what you have seen anywhere else and seems too good to be true you should report it to the DM team. This should be done through the bug reporting tool or you can message one of us in private on Discord.

== [[Rules]] ==
Make sure you take a look at the server rules and know what is acceptable

; Description
: Wizards are arcane spellcasters who depend on intensive study to create their magic. To wizards, magic is not a talent but a difficult, rewarding art. When they are prepared for battle, wizards can use their spells to devastating effect. When caught by surprise, they are vulnerable. The wizard's strength is her spells; everything else is secondary. She learns new spells as she experiments and grows in experience, and she can also learn them from other wizards. In addition, over time a wizard learns to manipulate her spells so they go farther, work better, or are improved in some other way. A wizard can call a familiar, a magical creature, small or large, that serves her.

=== Barbarian ===
[[File:DBEPpoU - Imgur.png|right|220px]]
----
; Description
: Barbarians are brave, even reckless warriors, and their great strength and heartiness makes them well suited for adventure. Barbarians scornfully reject the fighter traditions of arms training and discipline, instead tapping into a powerful rage that makes them stronger, tougher, and better able to withstand attacks. They only have the energy for a few such displays per day, but it is usually sufficient. Constant exposure to danger also gives barbarians a sort of "sixth sense," a preternatural ability to sense danger and dodge attacks, and their running stamina is legendary. 

; Alignment Restrictions

=== Bard ===
[[File:Bard.jpg|right|220px]]
----
; Description
: Bards often serve as negotiators, messengers, scouts, and spies. They love to accompany heroes (and villains) to witness heroic (or villainous) deeds firsthand, since a bard who can tell a story from personal experience earns renown among his fellows. A bard casts arcane spells without any advance preparation, much like a sorcerer. His magic emphasizes charms and illusions, and the bard can also play an inspiring song that strengthens him and his allies. Bards also share some specialized skills with rogues, and their knowledge of item lore is nearly unmatched.

=== Cleric ===
[[File:948388f6a982bc947afcfed91d2e5536.jpg|right|220px]]
----
; Description
: Clerics act as intermediaries between the earthly and the divine (or infernal) worlds. A good cleric helps those in need, while an evil cleric seeks to spread his patron's vision of evil across the world. All clerics can heal wounds and bring people back from the brink of death, and powerful clerics can even raise the dead. Likewise, all clerics have authority over undead creatures, and they can turn away or even destroy these creatures. Clerics are trained in the use of simple weapons, and can use all forms of armor and shields without penalty, since armor does not interfere with the casting of divine spells. In addition to his normal complement of spells, every cleric chooses to focus on two of his deity's domains. These domains grant the cleric special powers, and give him access to spells that he might otherwise never learn. 

; Alignment Restrictions
: None. 

; Mechanical Changes
: None 

; Special Details

: '''Divine Worshipper / Domains''': To be a Cleric in Netheril, you have to represent your [[Deities|Deity]] if you want their blessings. This means you must cast from within their [[Cleric Domains|Domains]], and you must espouse their ideals by remaining true to their alignment. For every incorrect domain a cleric will suffer 20% spell failure. For every opposing axes of alignment a cleric will suffer 10% spell failure. Not picking a deity at all will cause a cleric to suffer 100% spell failure. 

=== Druid ===
[[File:7lwjnJc - Imgur.jpg|right|220px]]
----
; Description
: Druids are divine spellcasters who receive their spells from nature, not the gods. They strive to live in harmony with the natural world, and hate anything that is not part of the natural cycle, especially aberrations and undead creatures. As they gain experience, they learn to take the shapes of animals and eventually of more powerful creatures. The strict oaths taken by every druid prohibit using weapons and armor outside their traditions. 

; Alignment Restrictions
: Any Neutral. 

; Mechanical Changes
: None 

; Special Details
: '''Nature Magic:''' Must select a [[Deities|god]] or mother nature in order to be able to channel energy for spellcasting. 

=== Fighter ===
[[File:22kOwb8 - Imgur.jpg|right|240px]]
----
; Description
: Fighters can be many things, from soldiers to criminal enforcers. Some see adventure as a way to get rich, while others use their skills to protect the innocent. Fighters have the best all-around fighting capabilities of the PC classes, and they are trained to use all standard weapons and armor. A fighter's rigorous martial training grants him many bonus feats as he progresses, and high-level fighters have access to special melee maneuvers and exotic weapons not available to any other character. 

; Alignment Restrictions
: Any. 

; Mechanical Changes
: None 

; Special Details
: None. 

=== Monk ===
----
; Description
: Monks are versatile warriors skilled at fighting without weapons or armor. Good-aligned monks serve as protectors of the people, while evil monks make ideal spies and assassins. Though they don't cast spells, monks channel a subtle energy, called ki. This energy allows them to perform amazing feats, such as healing themselves, catching arrows in flight, and dodging blows with lightning speed. Their mundane and ki-based abilities grow with experience, granting them more power over themselves and their environment. Monks suffer unique penalties to their abilities if they wear armor, as doing so violates their rigid oaths. Monks wearing armor lose their wisdom and level based armor class bonuses, their movement speed, and their additional unarmed attacks per round. 

; Alignment Restrictions
: Any Lawful. 

; Mechanical Changes
: None 

; Special Details
: None. 

=== Ranger ===
----
; Description
: Rangers are skilled stalkers and hunters who make their home in the wilderness. Their martial skill is nearly the equal of the fighter, but they lack the latter's dedication to the craft of fighting. Instead, the ranger focuses his skills and training on a specific enemy - a type of creature he bears a vengeful grudge against and hunts above all others. Rangers often accept the role of protector, aiding those who live in or travel through the woods. His skills allow him to move quietly and stick to the shadows, especially in natural settings, and he also has special knowledge of certain types of creatures. Finally, an experienced ranger has such a tie to nature that he can actually draw on natural power to cast divine spells, much as a druid does, and like a druid he is often accompanied by animal companions. 

; Alignment Restrictions
: None. 

; Mechanical Changes
: None 

; Special Details
: '''Nature Magic:''' Must select a [[Deities|god]] or mother nature in order to be able to channel energy for spellcasting. 

=== Rogue ===
----
; Description
: Rogues have little in common with each other. While some - maybe even the majority - are stealthy thieves, many serve as scouts, spies, investigators, diplomats, and simple thugs. Rogues are versatile, adaptable, and skilled at getting what others don't want them to get. While not equal to a fighter in combat, a rogue knows how to hit where it hurts, and a sneak attack can dish out a lot of damage. Rogues also seem to have a sixth sense when it comes to avoiding danger. Experienced rogues develop nearly magical powers and skills as they master the arts of stealth, evasion, and sneak attacks. In addition, while not capable of casting spells on their own, a rogue can sometimes "fake it" well enough to cast spells from scrolls, activate wands, and use just about any other magic item. 

; Alignment Restrictions
: None. 

; Mechanical Changes
: None 

; Special Details
: None. 

=== Sorcerers ===
----
; Description
: Sorcerers are arcane spellcasters who manipulate magic energy with imagination and talent rather than studious discipline. They have no books, no mentors, no theories - just raw power that they direct at will. Sorcerers know fewer spells than wizards do and acquire them more slowly, but they can cast individual spells more often and have no need to prepare their incantations ahead of time. Also unlike wizards, sorcerers cannot specialize in a school of magic. Since sorcerers gain their powers without undergoing the years of rigorous study that wizards go through, they have more time to learn fighting skills and are proficient with simple weapons. 

; Alignment Restrictions
: None. 

; Mechanical Changes
: None. 

; Special Details
: '''Power Source:''' Sorcerers draw their power either from pacts, or awakened bloodlines to exotic powers; character's should be aware which they are drawing from. The four main sources are: Infernal, Abyssal, Draconic, Fey.
:: '''Awakened Bloodlines:''' Awakened bloodlines assumes your character has some small, dilute remnant of exotic-blood in them from a distant ancestor. This ancestor is half-a-dozen or more generations distant, unless the character is a partial-exotic race of that type i.e.: [[Races#Tiefling|Tiefling]], [[Races#Cambion|Cambion]], [[Races#Half-Dragon|Half-Dragon]] etc.
:: '''Pacted:''' Either to enhance a concentration of existing planar-blood, or to make up for a lack there of, some mortals may choose to make pacts with powerful planar entities, to substitute their patron's power to empower their own. The result of this union may be the awakening of a bloodline unawakened, the enhancement of one already awakened, or, in the cases of no prior bloodline, the appropriate substitute to power their arcane-efforts.

Instead, the ranger focuses his skills and training on a specific enemy - a type of creature he bears a vengeful grudge against and hunts above all others. Rangers often accept the role of protector, aiding those who live in or travel through the woods. His skills allow him to move quietly and stick to the shadows, especially in natural settings, and he also has special knowledge of certain types of creatures. Finally, an experienced ranger has such a tie to nature that he can actually draw on natural power to cast divine spells, much as a druid does, and like a druid he is often accompanied by animal companions.

: '''Nature Magic:''' Must select a [[Deities|god]] or mother nature in order to be able to channel energy for spellcasting. 

=== Rogue ===
----
; Description
: Rogues have little in common with each other. While some - maybe even the majority - are stealthy thieves, many serve as scouts, spies, investigators, diplomats, and simple thugs. Rogues are versatile, adaptable, and skilled at getting what others don't want them to get. While not equal to a fighter in combat, a rogue knows how to hit where it hurts, and a sneak attack can dish out a lot of damage. Rogues also seem to have a sixth sense when it comes to avoiding danger. Experienced rogues develop nearly magical powers and skills as they master the arts of stealth, evasion, and sneak attacks. In addition, while not capable of casting spells on their own, a rogue can sometimes "fake it" well enough to cast spells from scrolls, activate wands, and use just about any other magic item.

=== Sorcerers ===
----
; Description
: Sorcerers are arcane spellcasters who manipulate magic energy with imagination and talent rather than studious discipline. They have no books, no mentors, no theories - just raw power that they direct at will. Sorcerers know fewer spells than wizards do and acquire them more slowly, but they can cast individual spells more often and have no need to prepare their incantations ahead of time. Also unlike wizards, sorcerers cannot specialize in a school of magic. Since sorcerers gain their powers without undergoing the years of rigorous study that wizards go through, they have more time to learn fighting skills and are proficient with simple weapons. 

; Alignment Restrictions
: None. 

; Mechanical Changes
: None. 

; Special Details
: '''Power Source:''' Sorcerers draw their power either from pacts, or awakened bloodlines to exotic powers; character's should be aware which they are drawing from. The four main sources are: Infernal, Abyssal, Draconic, Fey.
:: '''Awakened Bloodlines:''' Awakened bloodlines assumes your character has some small, dilute remnant of exotic-blood in them from a distant ancestor. This ancestor is half-a-dozen or more generations distant, unless the character is a partial-exotic race of that type i.e.: [[Races#Tiefling|Tiefling]], [[Races#Cambion|Cambion]], [[Races#Half-Dragon|Half-Dragon]] etc.
:: '''Pacted:''' Either to enhance a concentration of existing planar-blood, or to make up for a lack there of, some mortals may choose to make pacts with powerful planar entities, to substitute their patron's power to empower their own. The result of this union may be the awakening of a bloodline unawakened, the enhancement of one already awakened, or, in the cases of no prior bloodline, the appropriate substitute to power their arcane-efforts.
 

=== Wizard ===
----
; Description
: Wizards are arcane spellcasters who depend on intensive study to create their magic. To wizards, magic is not a talent but a difficult, rewarding art. When they are prepared for battle, wizards can use their spells to devastating effect. When caught by surprise, they are vulnerable. The wizard's strength is her spells; everything else is secondary. She learns new spells as she experiments and grows in experience, and she can also learn them from other wizards. In addition, over time a wizard learns to manipulate her spells so they go farther, work better, or are improved in some other way. A wizard can call a familiar, a magical creature, small or large, that serves her.

== Base Classes ==

=== Barbarian ===
[[File:DBEPpoU - Imgur.png|right|280px]]
----
; Description
: Barbarians are brave, even reckless warriors, and their great strength and heartiness makes them well suited for adventure. Barbarians scornfully reject the fighter traditions of arms training and discipline, instead tapping into a powerful rage that makes them stronger, tougher, and better able to withstand attacks. They only have the energy for a few such displays per day, but it is usually sufficient. Constant exposure to danger also gives barbarians a sort of "sixth sense," a preternatural ability to sense danger and dodge attacks, and their running stamina is legendary. 

; Alignment Restrictions
: Non-Lawful 

; Mechanical Changes
: None 

; Special Details
: None.
 

=== Bard ===
----
; Description
: Bards often serve as negotiators, messengers, scouts, and spies. They love to accompany heroes (and villains) to witness heroic (or villainous) deeds firsthand, since a bard who can tell a story from personal experience earns renown among his fellows. A bard casts arcane spells without any advance preparation, much like a sorcerer. His magic emphasizes charms and illusions, and the bard can also play an inspiring song that strengthens him and his allies. Bards also share some specialized skills with rogues, and their knowledge of item lore is nearly unmatched. 

; Alignment Restrictions
: Non-Lawful 

; Mechanical Changes
: None 

; Special Details
: None. 

=== Cleric ===
----
; Description
: Clerics act as intermediaries between the earthly and the divine (or infernal) worlds. A good cleric helps those in need, while an evil cleric seeks to spread his patron's vision of evil across the world. All clerics can heal wounds and bring people back from the brink of death, and powerful clerics can even raise the dead. Likewise, all clerics have authority over undead creatures, and they can turn away or even destroy these creatures. Clerics are trained in the use of simple weapons, and can use all forms of armor and shields without penalty, since armor does not interfere with the casting of divine spells. In addition to his normal complement of spells, every cleric chooses to focus on two of his deity's domains. These domains grant the cleric special powers, and give him access to spells that he might otherwise never learn. 

; Alignment Restrictions
: None. 

; Mechanical Changes
: None 

; Special Details

: '''Divine Worshipper / Domains''': To be a Cleric in Netheril, you have to represent your [[Deities|Deity]] if you want their blessings. This means you must cast from within their [[Cleric Domains|Domains]], and you must espouse their ideals by remaining true to their alignment. For every incorrect domain a cleric will suffer 20% spell failure. For every opposing axes of alignment a cleric will suffer 10% spell failure. Not picking a deity at all will cause a cleric to suffer 100% spell failure. 

=== Druid ===
----
; Description
: Druids are divine spellcasters who receive their spells from nature, not the gods. They strive to live in harmony with the natural world, and hate anything that is not part of the natural cycle, especially aberrations and undead creatures. As they gain experience, they learn to take the shapes of animals and eventually of more powerful creatures. The strict oaths taken by every druid prohibit using weapons and armor outside their traditions. 

; Alignment Restrictions
: Any Neutral. 

; Mechanical Changes
: None 

; Special Details
: '''Nature Magic:''' Must select a [[Deities|god]] or mother nature in order to be able to channel energy for spellcasting. 

=== Fighter ===
----
; Description
: Fighters can be many things, from soldiers to criminal enforcers. Some see adventure as a way to get rich, while others use their skills to protect the innocent. Fighters have the best all-around fighting capabilities of the PC classes, and they are trained to use all standard weapons and armor. A fighter's rigorous martial training grants him many bonus feats as he progresses, and high-level fighters have access to special melee maneuvers and exotic weapons not available to any other character. 

; Alignment Restrictions
: Any. 

; Mechanical Changes
: None 

; Special Details
: None. 

=== Monk ===
----
; Description
: Monks are versatile warriors skilled at fighting without weapons or armor. Good-aligned monks serve as protectors of the people, while evil monks make ideal spies and assassins. Though they don't cast spells, monks channel a subtle energy, called ki. This energy allows them to perform amazing feats, such as healing themselves, catching arrows in flight, and dodging blows with lightning speed. Their mundane and ki-based abilities grow with experience, granting them more power over themselves and their environment. Monks suffer unique penalties to their abilities if they wear armor, as doing so violates their rigid oaths. Monks wearing armor lose their wisdom and level based armor class bonuses, their movement speed, and their additional unarmed attacks per round. 

; Alignment Restrictions
: Any Lawful. 

; Mechanical Changes
: None 

; Special Details
: None. 

=== Ranger ===

ElvenStarr: Created page with "Long ago, Gorellik was the one who originally taught gnolls how to train hyenas for use in hunting. Gorellik had the status of a lesser deity and was perhaps even a higher..."

Long ago, Gorellik was the one who originally taught gnolls how to train hyenas for use in hunting. Gorellik had the status of a lesser deity and was perhaps even a higher power, but his followers respected only force and they gradually turned toward the evil side of the giant pantheon. Early gnoll myths did not tell of a creation story for their race so Gorellik could not even claim this familial tie to bind the gnolls to him. Then Yeenoghu, an interloper demon lord that inserted himself with the giants (and made his avatar giant-sized) was able to grab attention from the rudderless gnolls and his power increased as Gorellik's faded away. Yeenoghu offered the gnoll priests new abilities, such as command undead and spells for witchdoctors, that Gorellik could not, and it was only a matter of time before they abandoned Gorellik in droves.
In modern history, Gorellik was worshiped by the gnoll tribes of the Shar, but saw a sharp decline in the Year of the Fanged Beast, 640 DR, as Yeenoghu surged in popularity and emboldened the tribes to attack the region around Lake Lhespen with their newly acquired shamanistic power.
Less than a millennium later, Yeenoghu's purview over the gnolls was, for all practical purposes, complete.
