Casting ability

Your casting ability is the ability that governs your spellcasting effectiveness.


 * The highest level spell you can cast is your casting ability - 10. If your casting ability is 10 or lower, you cannot cast spells!
 * Your casting ability modifier affects your maximum spell points.
 * Your casting ability modifier adds to your spells' saving throw DCs.

Depending on your class, your casting ability may be Intelligence, Wisdom or Charisma.


 * Wizards use Intelligence
 * Bards, Sorcerers and Favored Souls use Charisma
 * Clerics, Paladins and Rangers use Wisdom
 * Favored Souls use Wisdom to determine maximum spell level and spell points, but use Charisma to determine spell DCs
