So you've decided to run a gritty, low magic game. Your healing rate is glacial, your coin has been set to a silver standard, and you even differentiated bronze and steel weapons, but there is just one niggling point...
You want a low magic game, but not a NO magic game. Corrupt sorcerers with human sacrifices wriggling on their altars need to exist out there, but the Wizard, Sorcerer, and even the warlock are just too flashy, have too much magic... enter, The Magician.
Using a variant of the spell points system and fully empowered to keep up with short resting classes, the Magician stands ready to deliver the narratively impactful amount of magic you want to see in a game. Specialize your Magician in one of three archetypes:
Conjurors seek power at any price, making bargains with entities from beyond this world, relying upon their familiar and what energies they can conjure forth to see them through the rigors of battle.
Enchanters warp men's minds, controlling and altering the thoughts of those foolish enough to stand in your way. Silver tongued and manipulative, even a losing battle can feel like a victory for these schemers.
Necromancers can control life and death, literally sucking the souls from their enemies and offering great boons to those who help them attain their goals, even able to restore life, or a semblance of it, to the dead.
