Elf

Gaining Levels

Elves are a people of otherworldly grace, living in the world but not
entirely part of it. They live in places of ethereal beauty, in the midst
of ancient forests or in silvery spires glittering with faerie light, where
soft music drifts through the air and gentle fragrances waft on the
breeze. Elves love nature and magic, art and artistry, music and poetry.
Elves can live over 700 years. They are more often amused than
excited, and more likely to be curious than greedy. They tend to remain
aloof and unfazed by petty happenstance, and they trust in diplomacy
and compromise to resolve differences before they escalate to violence.
Most elves dwell in small forest villages hidden among the trees.
Their contact with outsiders is usually limited, though a few elves
make a good living by trading crafted items for metals, which they have
no interest in mining.
In the Forgotten Realms, your people are named sun elves. Also
called gold elves or sunrise elves, sun elves have bronze skin and hair
of copper, black, or golden blond, and their eyes are golden, silver, or
black. They are more reclusive than the other branch of high elves, the
moon elves, but Oghma has called you to live among other peoples,
rather than in the sanctuaries of your kin.

As you adventure and overcome challenges, you gain experience

points (XP), as explained in the rulebook.
With each level you gain, you gain one additional Hit Die and add
1d6 + 2 to your hit point maximum.
You gain access to more spells as you gain levels. You can prepare
a number of spells equal to your level + your Intelligence modifier, as
shown in the Spellcasting Advancement table. You also gain more
spell slots.

Elves are considered children until they declare themselves adults,

sometime after the hundredth birthday. Before this period, they
are called by child names. On declaring adulthood, an elf selects
an adult name. Every elf also bears a family name, typically a
combination of Elvish words. Some elves traveling among other
races translate their family names into Common.
Child Names: Ara, Bryn, Del, Innil, Lael, Mella, Naeris, Phann,
Rael, Rinn, Syllin, Vall
Male Adult Names: Adran, Berrian, Carric, Erevan, Galinndan,
Hadarai, Immeral, Paelias, Quarion, Riardon, Soveliss, Theren,
Varis
Female Adult Names: Althaea, Bethrynna, Caelynn, Ielenia,
Leshanna, Meriele, Naivara, Quillathe, Silaqui, Thia, Vadania,
Valanthe, Xanaphia
Family Names (Common Translations): Amastacia (Starflower),
Galanodel (Moonwhisper), Liadon (Silverfrond), Meliamne
(Oakenheel), Siannodel (Moonbrook), Ilphelkiir (Gemblossom)

Wizard
Wizards are supreme magic-users. Drawing on the subtle weave of
magic that permeates the cosmos, they cast spells of explosive fire,
arcing lightning, subtle deception, and brute-force mind control. The
mightiest wizards learn to conjure elementals from other planes of
existence, glimpse the future, or turn slain foes into zombies.

Background
You have spent your life dedicated to Oghma, all-seeing god of
knowledge, and spent years learning the lore of the multiverse.
Personal Goal: Reconsecrate the Defiled Altar. Through visions
delivered in your trances, your god has called you to a new mission. A
goblin tribe has made its lair in an ancient ruin now called Cragmaw
Castle, where they have defiled a shrine once sacred to Oghma. Now
dedicated to the vile goblin god Maglubiyet, the altar is an offense to
Oghma that must not stand.
Youre sure Oghma has greater things in store for you if you can
complete this quest. In the meantime, your visions suggest that Sister
Garaelea priest of Tymora, the goddess of luckcan aid you in the
town of Phandalin.
Alignment: Chaotic Good. The pursuit and acquisition of
knowledge is for the benefit of all. Kingdoms and laws are useful so far
as they allow knowledge to flourish. Tyrants who seek to suppress and
control it are the worst villains. You share your knowledge freely, and
use what you have learned to help where you can.

Adding to Your Spellbook

Each time you gain a wizard level, you can add two wizard spells of
your choice to your spellbook, chosen from the wizard spell list in the
rulebook. Each of these spells must be of a level for which you have
spell slots. On your adventures, you might also find scrolls or books
containing other spells you can add to your spellbook.
Copying a Spell into the Book. When you find a wizard spell, you
can add it to your spellbook if it is of a level for which you have spell
slots and if you can spare the time to decipher and copy it.
For each level of the spell, the process takes 2 hours and requires
50 gp. The cost represents material components you expend as you
experiment with the spell to master it, as well as the fine inks you need
to record it. Once you have spent this time and money, you can prepare
the spell just like your other spells.

2nd Level: 300 XP

Evocation Savant. The gold and time you must spend to copy an
evocation spell into your spellbook is halved.
Sculpt Spells. When you cast an evocation spell that affects other
creatures you can see, you can choose a number of them equal to 1 +
the spells level. The chosen creatures automatically succeed on their
saving throws against the spell, and they take no damage if they would
normally take half damage from it.

3rd Level: 900 XP

Spells. You can now prepare and cast 2nd-level spells.

4th Level: 2,700 XP

Spells. You learn one more wizard cantrip of your choice.
Ability Score Improvement. Your Intelligence increases to 18,
which has the following effects:
Your Intelligence modifier becomes +4.
Your spell saving throw DC increases by 1.
Your bonus for your spell attacks increases by 1.
Your modifier to Intelligence saving throws increases by 1.
Your modifier to Intelligence-based skills increases by 1.

5th Level: 6,500 XP

Spells. You can prepare and cast 3rd-level spells.
Proficiency Bonus. Your proficiency bonus increases to +3, which
has the following effects:
Your attack bonus increases by 1 for your spell attacks and weapons
youre proficient with.
Your spell saving throw DC increases by 1.
Your modifier for saving throws and skills youre proficient in (indicated by a ) increases by 1.
Because the modifier for your Perception skill increased, your
passive Wisdom (Perception) score increases by 1.
