A pure sorcerer is not a very popular archtype currently in the lands of Elanthia. The two most popular paths of learning are demonology or necromancy. Some sorcerers swear that demon summoning and its use is the best skills to learn, and others say necromancy is. Seldom few aspire to accuire the use of both powerful talents.

A pure sorcerer learns all spells from all three circles and how these spells interact together. A pure sorcerer would also learn and master the skills tought in the sorcerer guild. Alchemy is a practice that some sorcerers do not learn to do till they are well into their prime. When a sorcerer is 15 and invited to the guild, start right away. The potions and wands that can be made will help out in may situations in the wild when you are older. Focus of spell learning and useage as well as potions and trinket making form the basis of a pure sorcerer.

Sorcery can have a dark side seen by those who do not practice our magics. Our kind use terror and fear to defeat enemies but it is no means insight into the mind of a pure sorcerer. The magic we wield is very powerful and dangerous, to ourselves and to others. Being able to control and focus our magic to achieve goals makes us sought out to work with other classes. Those that hunt with us see the terror we can create, and should be most greatful that we do not direct it at other people.

Balancing development of skills and spells make a pure sorcerer reach their full potential later than a focused training plan. There are a few differences for a pure sorcerer than a brawling sorcerer. First is that we do not train in weapons use or shield use at all. Thus more focus is put into mana contol and lores. There is no way to learn all the different lores equally. So, some lore learning is focused for certain uses. For those that live in cold climates and use spells that can benefit from elemental lores like fire, should get some ranks in them to make spells like Dark Catalyst more effective in their hunting areas. A pure sorcerer will also study the useage and development of spells and lores. Learning and knowledge are primary to the development and growth of any pure sorcerer.
