Beneﬁ ts: You gain use of your deep pockets ability one

additional instance per day.

Special: You may take this feat more than once, each

time gaining another use of deep pockets. However, doing

so requires an Int increase of 2 for the prerequisite. For ex-

ample, taking this feat twice requires Int 14 whereas taking

it four times would require Int 18.

Energy Mastery (Type) (Specialist)

Your ability with spells of the selected energy type is

more potent than normal.

Prerequisites: 1 level of evoker, Spell Focus (evocation)

Beneﬁ ts: Select an energy form used as a spell descrip-

tion (acid, cold, electricity, ﬁ re or sonic) for which this feat

shall

apply. When casting spells of that descriptor,

a +1 bonus to the spell’s save DC and

you can choose to either increase the

spell’s range by 25% (if it has one

other than personal, touch or un-

limited), extend its duration by

25% (if it has one that is timed),

or affect an additional creature

(if it affects more than one.)

Special: You may select this

feat more than once, applying it to

a different energy type with each

new instance.

The Evoker

The evoker specialist wizard has

been transformed into its own 20-

level base class. The standard

wizard found in the PHB re-

mains the typical, universal

wizard base class.

* This is a Specialist feat

Beneﬁ ts: You can learn one spell of your

prohibited magic school, to a maximum spell level equal to

your Intelligence bonus.

Beneﬁ ts: If you successfully counterspell an evocation

spell with an energy descriptor you have selected the Life

Infusion feat for, you not only counter the spell’s effects but

steal its energies. Following the successful counterspell, you

gain a free dynamic spell slot of a spell level equal to half or

less (rounded down) that of the spell that was countered, to

a minimum spell level of 0. This dynamic spell slot must be

used on an evocation spell within the permitted spell level

range within as many rounds following the counter as you

have points of Wisdom bonus or it will be lost.

Life Infusion (Type) (Specialist)

You may give of your life force to increase an evocation’s

potency.

Prerequisites: 6 levels of evoker, Con 12

Beneﬁ ts: Choose an energy type (acid, cold, electricity,

ﬁ re or sonic.) By willingly suffering 1d2 hit points of dam-

age you may add an additional die of damage to a damage-

causing evocation spell using the selected energy descriptor.

You may do this in increments of 1d2, to a maximum of one

die per point of Constitution bonus. This allows you to in-

crease a spell’s damage beyond any normal limits, such as

ﬁ reball ’s 10d6 maximum.

Energy Thief Example

An evoker with Life Infusion (ﬁ re) and Wisdom 15

countering a ﬁ reball can cast an extra 0- or 1st-level

evocation spell within 2 rounds of having performed

the counterspell.

Special: This feat may be taken more than once with each

new instance applying to a different energy type.

Evoker’s Counterspell

(Type) (Specialist)

Mixed Energy (Type) (Specialist)

You are able to mix the types of energy your spells use.

(Type) (Specialist)

You are able to use magical ﬁ re to ﬁ ght magical ﬁ re, as

it were.

Prerequisites: 1 level of evoker, Knowledge (arcane) 4

ranks

Beneﬁ ts: Select an energy type (acid, cold, electricity,

ﬁ re, etc.) When casting spells of other energy types, as a free

action you can alter half the spell’s damage to be that of this

feat’s energy type.

Prerequisites: 3 levels of evoker, Energy Mastery (same

energy type), Spell Focus (evocation)

Beneﬁ ts: Select an energy form used as a spell descrip-

tion (acid, cold, electricity, ﬁ re or sonic) for which this feat

shall apply. When counterspelling a spell of the same en-

ergy descriptor as was applied to this feat, you may use a

spell of the same descriptor that is of equal or higher level in

the counterspell attempt.

Special: You may select this feat more than once, each

time applying it to a new type of energy.

Specialist Familiar (Specialist)

Your familiar is altered into a creature more suited to

your specialty.

Normal: Counterspell requires casting the same spell as

that which is to be countered.

Special: You may select this feat more than once, apply-

ing it to a different energy type with each new instance so

long as you also have the Energy Mastery feat for the energy

type.

Prerequisites: 4 levels of any single specialist wizard

class, Charisma 14+

Beneﬁ ts: Your familiar gains the following abilities, as

beﬁ tting your specialty wizard class:

Adventures

● Evoker : In much the same way as when using a

metamagic feat, the master may enchant the familiar with

an evocation spell by increasing the spell’s slot level by one

level. Once done, a simple thought releases the spell as a free

action, using the familiar as the point of origin, but only if

the familiar is within line of sight and 100 feet of its master.

Only one such spell may affect the familiar at once. Any con-

dition that causes the master to lose his memorized spells

also dissipates this spell.

Possessing the most combat-oriented spell repertoire of

all the specialists, evokers are welcomed by most adven-

turers. Aside from their combat spells, evokers are able to

summon any number of other effects—ranging from light

to winds to alternate space—that lend themselves greatly to

any number of situations and crises.

Characteristics

An evoker’s worth is in the wide application of their

spells. Evokers lean towards being very logical, reasonable

folks who believe what their senses tell them. However, they

also believe in altering that perception by creating their own

aspects of reality from nothing, making them highly imagi-

native and personable.

The Evoker Core Class

Most people consider it impossible to make something

from nothing. If that is the case, evokers specialize in work-

ing the impossible. Through careful study, evokers learn to

shape reality through their spells, allowing them to invoke

everything from the elements to pure force. They harness

the essence of what magic means and twist it to their wills,

shaping reality. Perhaps this is why they are amongst some

of the more populous specialists: the idea of tinkering with

existence itself on a fundamental level is so alluring to the

mortal imagination and sense of potential experience.

The Evoker Core Class

Alignment

Creation is not a matter of law or chaos, good or evil and

so evokers exist across the full spectrum of alignments.

Religion

Aside from the usual gods of magic, evokers may also

worship gods of creation and craftsmanship. They tend to

avoid following deities with inﬂ uence over subterfuge, il-

lusion, lies and the like. Evokers prefer reality rather than

falsehood.

Background

Class Skills

The evoker’s class skills (and the key ability for each skill)

are Concentration (Con), Craft (Int), Decipher Script (Int),

Knowledge (all skills, taken individually) (Int), Profession

(Wis), and Spellcraft (Int.)

There is little in the way of rivalry between most evok-

ers. Creating something from nothing is equally miraculous

regardless of where one lives or was trained. Some have

taken this one step further, however, and deem it necessary

to prove who can conduct this process best by engaging in

spell duels that sometimes last until one of the combatants is

dead—the ultimate way to prove

one’s point.

Races

Skill Points at 1st Level: (2 + Int modiﬁ er) x4.

Skill Points at Each

Additional Level: 2 + Int modi-

ﬁ er.

A few combat-prone races,

such as orcs and even dwarves,

have a higher ratio of evokers

than most other specialists, but

generally they are relatively un-

remarkable in their racial demo-

graphics. Elven evokers prefer

to employ their magics in artistic

displays rather than as a tool of

battle, while halﬂ ing evokers are

very creative when it comes to

using their magic for pranks.

Class Features

All of the following are class

features of the evoker.

Weapon and Armor

Proficiency

Evokers are proﬁ cient with

the club, dagger, heavy cross-

bow, light crossbow, and quar-

terstaff, but not with any type of

armor or shield. Armor of any

type interferes with an evoker’s

movements, which can cause his

spells with somatic components

to fail.

Other Classes

Considering their own pow-

ers have such an immediate and

direct inﬂ uence on the world

around tm, evokers tend to get

along well with ﬁ ghters and

other warriors, while not quite

approving of rogues, bards or

fellow spellcasters who prefer to

deal with their foes indirectly.

Role

Evocation

Specialization

An evoker gains a +2 bonus

on Spellcraft checks to learn

evoker spells. At this time, he

must also give up two other

schools of magic, which become

his prohibited schools.

Of all the specialists, the

evoker perhaps has the most

utility. Their spells are arguably

more adaptable to different situ-

ations than most and they also

provide the most ﬁ repower. As

such, evokers are usually effec-

tive in most situations, although

there are deﬁ nitely circumstanc-

es where other specialists or

even regular wizards are more

suited.

An evoker can never give up

divination to fulﬁ ll this require-

ment.

Spells of the prohibited

schools are not available to the

evoker, and he can’t even cast

such spells from scrolls or ﬁ re

them from wands. He may not

change his prohibited schools

later.

Spells

An evoker casts arcane spells

which are drawn from the sor-

cerer/wizard spell list. An evoker must choose and prepare

his spells ahead of time (see below.)

To learn, prepare, or cast a spell, the evoker must have

an Intelligence score equal to at least 10 + the spell level. The

Difﬁ culty Class for a saving throw against an evoker’s spell

is 10 + the spell level + the evoker’s Intelligence modiﬁ er.

Spells

Game Rule

Information

Evokers have the following game statistics.

Abilities: As with wizards, Intelligence determines the

strength of an evoker’s spells, how many he can cast, and

how difﬁ cult it is to resist those spells’ effects.

Alignment: Any.

Hit Die: d4.

Like other spellcasters, an evoker can cast only a cer-

tain number of spells of each spell level per day. His base

daily spell allotment is given on Table 7-1: The Evoker . In

addition, he receives bonus spells per day if he has a high

Intelligence score, as does a wizard.

Bonus Spell

At levels 3, 7, 11, 15 and 19 the character selects an

Evocation spell level that he is able to cast and he gains an

additional spell per day of that level. This ability can be ap-

plied to spell levels that have previously beneﬁ ted from in-

stance of Bonus Spell. The spell level selection can vary with

each new memorization of spells.

Unlike a bard or sorcerer, an evoker may know any num-

ber of spells. He must choose and prepare his spells ahead

of time by getting a good night’s sleep and spending 1 hour

studying his spellbook. While studying, the evoker decides

which spells to prepare.

Bonus Feats

At 6th, 13th and 17th level, an evoker gains a bonus feat.

At each such opportunity, he can choose a metamagic feat,

an item creation feat, a specialist feat, or Spell Focus (evoca-

tion) or Spell Mastery. The evoker must still meet all prereq-

uisites for a bonus feat, including caster level minimums.

These bonus feats are in addition to the feat that a charac-

ter of any class gets from advancing levels. The evoker is not

limited to the categories of item creation feats, metamagic

feats, or Spell Mastery when choosing these feats.

Bonus Languages

An evoker may substitute Draconic for one of the bonus

languages available to the character because of his race.

Summon Familiar

An evoker can obtain a familiar in exactly the same man-

ner as a sorcerer can. See the sorcerer description and the

information on Familiars in the PHB for details.

Special Ability

On attaining 10th level, and again at levels 14 and 18, an

evoker gains a special ability of his choice from among the

following options.

Deep Pockets

An evoker ﬁ ddles with reality so much that objects fre-

quently “drift” through existence towards them, whether

they like it or not. As such, any pocket, pouch or similar loca-

tion close to the evoker can be probed to pull out a mundane

(non-magical, non-masterwork) item. The desired item must

be able to easily ﬁ t into the location and that location can be

no larger than a belt pouch, nor can the item expressly be a

weapon. Random objects cannot be withdrawn using deep

pockets. The evoker must specify what is to be drawn and

it must be a real object, not one imagined just to suit current

needs (and it must be approved by the Gamemaster.)

Energy Afﬁ nity (Ex) : Choose an energy type (acid, cold,

electricity, ﬁ re or sonic); this choice cannot be altered later.

Casting a spell of the selected energy type allows the caster

to increase his effective caster level by one level. This ability

cannot be chosen more than once.

Evoker’s Resistance (Ex) : Select an energy type (acid, cold,

electricity, ﬁ re, etc.) Against that chosen energy you gain

energy resistance 5. This does not compound with any other

sources of the same type of energy resistance . You may take

this ability more than once, each time applying it to a differ-

ent energy type.

This ability may be used once per day by making a

Concentration check against the appropriate DC, as deter-

mined by the item’s value. The day’s attempt is still consid-

ered spent if this check fails and the Gamemaster has ﬁ nal

say over whether or not the desired item can be withdrawn

from the location using this ability (although disallowing an

item is announced before the attempt is made so it does not

count as using the day’s attempt.)

Feat: An evoker may gain an additional bonus feat in

place of a special ability. This special ability may be taken

more than once, each time acquiring a new bonus feat.

Innate Spell (Sp) : Choose any Evocation spell of a level

equal to the character’s Intelligence modiﬁ er or lower which

the evoker may now use as a spell-like ability once per day.

If the character has a negative Intelligence modiﬁ er, he may

not select this ability. This special ability may be taken more

than once, each time acquiring a new innate spell.

Energy Substitution (Ex) : The evoker may substitute one

type of energy (acid, cold, electricity, ﬁ re or sonic) for anoth-

er, changing the spell’s energy descriptor to another type.

This is a free action that must be declared before casting the

spell and it may be done as many times per day as the char-

acter’s Int bonus. Characters of 11 or less Intelligence cannot

select this ability.

Overcome Resistance (Ex) : Choose an energy type (acid,

cold, electricity, ﬁ re or sonic); this choice cannot be altered

later. Casting a spell of this energy descriptor against a tar-

get with resistance to the energy type reduces that resistance

by 10 points plus the evoker’s Int modiﬁ er (minimum resis-

At 5th, 10th, 15th, and 20th level, an evoker may attempt

to use deep pockets an additional instance per day. At 4th,

8th, 12 th , 16th and 20th level, the value of the item that may

be withdrawn increases, as previously indicated.
