Warmage Spell List

Unlike other spellcasters, warmages only learn cantrips, which they pick from the following list when they gain certain levels in their class. If a cantrip appears on the wizard spell list which is not represented here, the GM can allow this cantrip to be a warmage spell as well. Spells marked with an asterisk (*) are new to this class.

Blade Cantrips:
When a warmage uses a cantrip which calls for a melee weapon attack, such as burning blade or frigid blade, they can apply their class features and warmage tricks to the weapon damage dealt.
Furthermore, blade cantrips aren’t intended to function with spells of 1st level or higher which conjure weapons made entirely of magic. The GM decides if blade cantrips can be cast with such weapons.
