Excerpt

Wizards and Spells (Dungeons and Dragons) : A Young Adventurer's Guide

Introduction You are in a fantasy realm. That means there are fantastical creatures and even more fantastical abilities. What kind of magic do you wield? How will you use your powers? This book is a way to answer those two very important questions. It's a guide to the extraordinary abilities that enhance the world of Dungeons & Dragons and the magic-centered classes available to adventurers. It gives you a wide range of options to choose from, along with spells and magical items to outfit your heroic persona. Read this book from start to finish, or open it to any spot, get pulled in by the exciting illustrations, and start brainstorming from there. The more you read, the more character ideas will spring from your imagination. Every character is unique. Even when two of them share the same magical vocation, the decisions they make will take them on an exclusive journey that is yours to tell. Dungeons & Dragons is all about building memorable characters, and the tales of your magical exploits are about to begin. Let's explore!
