Philosopher

Philosophers can be found in urban centers throughout Dragon Pass, seeking to understand the cosmos through abstract reasoning. Many wander from city to city, supporting themselves through teaching. Philosophers learn sorcery, and start having mastered the understanding of one Rune and one technique (see the Sorcery chapter). They also start with three sorcery spells.
