Advantages = Cheeper than a mage because they don't have to buy spells, more directed towards battle magic and a lot easier to play.
Disadvantages = Not as versitile as a normal mage and can't cast the smae massive number of spells.
Weapons = Staff of the magi, any good sling or the firetooth dagger.
Spells = Chromatic orb, stoneskin Albi-dazims anything a mage would use.
Why = Sheer destructive power and it makes a nice change from fighters/barbarians/paladins.
Quest = None, if you play mage you get the planar sphear.
Opinion = Mage is better but both are fun...
