A Sorcerer is referred to as a pure spell caster. This means that they have access to three spell lists, and that they are expected to train in Spell Research at least twice per level. Hybrids in spiritual and elemental magic, sorcerers are masters of destruction, focusing heavily on combat-oriented magic. As development continues, Sorcery increasingly has more utility spells to offer as well.
Some professional highlights are as follows:
- Demonic Summoning
Sorcerers can summon small demonic entities that, among other things, can hold mana, hold coins, prevent the casting of the Minor Sanctuary (213) spell, find hidden and invisible people, and guard the summoner's pockets from thieves.
- Animation
Sorcerers also have the ability to animate the dead corpses of their fallen foes. These corpses will attack for the sorcerer, utilizing spells and abilities that they knew in life.
- Scroll Infusing
Sorcerers have the ability to unlock and recharge scrolls with the Scroll Infusion (714) spell. This allows scrolls to be used many more times than would be normally possible, granting a level of versatility to the profession that is almost unknown in other magical professions.
- Curses
Sorcerers have the ability to cast various curses on foes as well as items. Cursed items, when stolen, will impart their curse on the unlucky thief who has their hand caught in the sorcerer's pouches.
Sorcerers have access to a defensive spell that can strike out against their attackers when the sorcerer has been stunned. This defensive spell can turn the tides of a battle gone wrong quickly in the sorcerer's favor.
The following is a short list of links that are sorcery related.
