Description

Human wizard 3

While the vulgar adventurer may wield magic like a hammer, the senior students of Golarion’s oldest school direct it like an artisan’s tools. After years of hard study and brutal abuse, the mavens stand ready to graduate and change their world with their arcane skills. While this specific stat block represents a maven dedicated to public health and civic planning, almost any arcane expert can be made by changing out Craft and Skill Focus specialties.
