The Academician

ADD TO WISHLIST >

It's time to get schooled.

This document presents options for characters who fulfill the archetype of the academic magical scholar. Here we call them Academicians. Use this document to support characters who are members of arcane orders, students at magical colleges, or professors doing a bit of research on their sabbaticals. 

In here you will find:

  • The Academician Arcane Traditon, for those who focus on their mastery of spellcraft.
  • The Scribe background, for those with a history in copying texts.
  • The Scribe feat, for scribes who bring their skills to bear on their adventuring life.
  • Four strongholds for academicians hoping to leave their mark on the world.
  • The Academician NPC, for DMs who want to use a visiting arcanist as an ally or adversary.

PURCHASER
I am loving this subclass for an Out of the Abyss campaign. I was wondering about the 14th level feature though. Is it just what is mentioned in "Magical Secrets" at 10th level?

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
