Sorcerer

Sorcerer #

This spell-casting class can use spells that involve chanting words of true power to alter the world’s rules. Sorcerers possess spells that can directly attack enemies as well as strengthen their allies. They can also use spells for helpful tasks like lighting torches. They tend to be scholarly, so they have a broad range of knowledge as well.
