Making an Occultist

<-Strong points and weak points, and effectiveness with party members.->

Abilities: Intelligence is the key ability score for spells and cantrips. Dexterity is useful for defense and ranged spell combat. Constitution, as always, aids Concentration and increases hit points. Charisma is useful, though not essential, for social skills.

Races: Any race might find something of value, though humans are more prone than most to pursing such studies.

Alignment: Any.

Starting Gold: <-starting gold; YdZ->×10 gp (<-average starting gold. This is calculated by multiplying the number of die rolls by the die size plus one and multiplying the result by 5 [Y × (Z + 1) × 5].-> gp).

Starting Age: "Complex".

Power Points/Day: A <-class name->’s ability to manifest powers is limited by the power points he has available. His base daily allotment of power points is given on Table: <-class name->. In addition, he receives bonus power points per day if he has a high <-relevant ability-> score (see Table: Ability Modifiers and Bonus Power Points). His race may also provide bonus power points per day, as may certain feats and items.

Powers Known: <-Delete this section if this class does not manifest powers.
