Sorcerer

A Sorcerer is a spellcasting machine, like the Wizard but there are a few major differences. As a sorcerer you are able to cast more spells per rest period, represented by your greater amount of spell points, but unlike the Wizard you can only learn a small number of the availible spells. As a Sorcerer you can also cast spells faster than a Wizard.

=Playing a Sorcerer= "Sorcerers are arcane spellcasters who manipulate magic energy with imagination and talent rather than studious discipline. They have no books, no mentors, no theories—just raw power that they direct at will. Sorcerers know fewer spells than wizards, and acquire them more slowly, but they can cast individual spells more quickly and more often before resting and have no need to prepare their incantations ahead of time. Since sorcerers gain their powers without undergoing the years of rigorous study that wizards go through, they have more time to learn fighting skills and are proficient with simple weapons. Charisma is very important for sorcerers; the higher their value in this ability, the higher the spell level she can cast." (DUNGEONS & DRAGONS ONLINE™: STORMREACH™ instruction manual page 62)
