The plucky mage is the ideal magic hero. Seemingly effortlessly he makes a fool of enemies and charms his way through the world. But plucky mages often have sad origins.

Class Features

This archetype has all normal class features, except as noted.

Arcane Bond (Su)

At 1st level, you gain an arcane bond, as a wizard equal to your sorcerer level. Your sorcerer levels stack with any wizard levels you possess when determining the powers of your familiar or bonded object. If you pick a bonded object, it is generally a memento of a mentor, parent, or loved one. Besides the normal options, it can be any kind of small personal object. In this case it need only be in your possession to not disturb your magic, but must be held in your hand to be used. Once per day, your bonded item allows you to cast any one of your spell list (unlike a wizard’s bonded item, which allows him to cast any one spell in his spellbook). This ability does not allow you to have both a familiar and a bonded item. This replaces bloodline arcana.

Bonus Spells

A plucky mage learns the following spells at the indicated levels, adding them to his known spells and spell list, as applicable. This replaces bloodline bonus spells.

Mage armor (3rd), find traps (as a 2nd level sorcerer spell) (5th), haste (7th), arcane eye (9th), telepathic bond (11th), getaway (13th), mage's magnificent mansion (15th), binding (17th), freedom (19th).
