well... your lv 1 bishop could only cast the lv 1 shpere, but youd still have 18 lv's of priest under your belt so you could cast whatever sphere you wanted.

the shpere's are geeen based on three things, the spells base lv, your book skill, and your realm skill.

so if you had a lv 18 priset they should have at least 100 in the divine book and 100 in the divine realm (heal) and alot in water(stamina).

So... you could cast whateer divine skills you had at whatever lv you could have already done ( you would lose the 25% bonus to divine book that the priest gets though).

Now... for spell picking, you would only be able to pick lv 1 spells(as you were picking based on the bishop, not the priest).

this means that the only real neg change is that you will have to wait forever to learn anything but lv 1 or lv 2 spells in the alch/psi/mage/priest books (though you can read a book to learn the spell as you would have sufficient skill)

Now... if you chose a pure caster instead of a bishop, you would again still be able to cast all the spells you know now at the same lv, however, you could never learn any more priest spells(but for books). The upside is that you would gain more proficiency with whatever class you chose, so instead of possibly getting lv 3 spells in mage/psi/alch/priest, you would have a much better chance to get spells of lv 3 or 4 (depeding on how long you play), and a much much larger chance to be able to cast those spells with proficiency(more bubbles as you have will have more condenced skill points)

hope this makes sence...

Overview:
Priest lv 18+ bishop lv 1 = can cast all spells known already at current lv, and cal learn lv 1 spells from alch/prist/mage/psi+ book stuff from priest (rare): will get aerage proficincy in thsoe spells

Priest lv 18 + pure class lv 1 = can cast all spells known already at current lv, and can learn lv 1 spells from the pure class of choise + book stuff from priest: will get avg/good proficiency in those spells

take you pick. Personaly i would go with pure caster as you would get better in that specific area, and because you lv faster, and because you only will only be able to pick 4-6 spells at the most as you pogress (if you end at lv 24 or so)
