I think not, if you not installed the game, it does not exist(the kit)

When a wild mage casts a spell, a random effect, such as cows falling from the sky will take place. For a full list, you can refer to the TOB manual. There are 100 different effects according to the dice roll.

No.

In addition to what mitsos said, wild mages can:

- cast three additional spells (Nahals Reckless Dweomer, Sphere of Chaos, and something else)
- have a percentage chance of a Wild Magic Surge happening each time they cast
- can cast in Wild Magic Zones with a higher rate of success

Think of wild mages as being walking Wands of Wonder (with 100 different effects, both good and bad).

Wild Mages are just like normal mages except they rock! They get an extra spell per level like a specialist, but they don't have an opposition school. They also get some extra spells, like Nahal's Reckless Dwoemer, which gives them a small chance of casting any spell in their book. The main "disadvantage" is that there's a 5% chance of something totally random happening each time you cast a spell, but the random thing can be good so it's all cool. I'd recommend them over any other mage in the game, even more than a sorcerer, which are some pretty kickass spellcasters.

Hey isn't there a actual wild mage NPC in SoA? (I won't say where but all the veterans should remember) - I'm almost totally clueless w/Shadowkeeper & Infinity Editor but wouldn't there be some way to use that NPC's data to make your own w/out ToB? Just curious if it was possible...if for no other reason than to see those cows.

--I KNOW, I KNOW: "Just get ToB, you moron!"...
Alright I will as soon as I finish SoA for the first time - can't defeat YouKnowWho in the final battle yet...
