	The Red Wizards are the masters of Thay, the conquerors of that land’s native Rashemi, and the would-be ~~[[File:Red_wizard.png\|thumb]]~~magical overlords of Faerûn. They focus on a school of magic more intently than any specialist, achieving incredible mastery of magic within a very narrow focus. Seen as cruel and evil tyrants by people across Toril, a few choose to leave their region, assume secret identities, and practice magic without having to worry about political alliances and possible slave uprisings.

Early in their careers, would-be Red Wizards specialize in a school of magic and acquire the Tattoo Focus feat that prepares them for entry into the full Red Wizard prestige class. All Red Wizards must be a specialist [[wizard]], and most follow that path exclusively, but a few dabble in other sorts of learning (such as combat or divine magic). While it is possible that some Red Wizards multiclass as a [[sorcerer]] or [[bard]], such misfits are ridiculed in their homeland and are incredibly rare.

	* unlike the original vanilla NWN 2 you can pick your second prohibited school freely. So it's not determined automatically on your specialized school. You ll be granted a feat on having your first Red Wizard level which will let you pick your 2nd prohibited school. This process is quite similar to picking a prohibited school at your first level as specialized Wizard.		* unlike the original vanilla NWN 2 you can pick your second prohibited school freely.

-*Spells Per Day/Spells Known: When a new Red Wizard level is gained, the character gains new spells per day (and spells known, if applicable) as though he had gained a level in Wizard.
+Red Wizard
-*Enhanced Specialization: Upon becoming a Red Wizard, the character becomes even more skilled at casting spells from his chosen school of specialization - gaining +1 to DC for spells requiring a save and +1 to attempts to penetrate spell resistance. '''Red Wizards also lose the ability to learn new spells and use scrolls from a second prohibited school of magic''' (already known spells are not lost, however)
+*Level 1. Spellcasting progression +1 (Wizard only), Specialist Defense +1, Circle Magic Feat Access
-*Circle Magic: Red Wizards gain access to the [[Casting_Forms| Circle Magic feats]].
-*Specialist Defense: A Red Wizard gains a bonus to defending against spells from his specialist school. This bonus is +1 at 1st level, +2 at 3rd level, +3 at 7th level, and +4 at 9th level.
+*Level 2. Spellcasting progression +2, Spellpower +1 (Chosen School only)
-*Spell Power: At 2nd level, The Red Wizard's effective caster level for determining level-dependent variable checks for spells is increased by +1. This bonus increases by +1 every even-numbered Red Wizard level, to a maximum of +5 at 10th level.
 **Note: Although not specified in the feat description, this bonus only applies to spells from the chosen school of Specialization. This includes any Epic Spells from the chosen school.
-**Note: Because spell-save DC is raised by +1 for every 3 caster levels over 20, this feat has the potential to raise the DC of spells from the chosen school of Specialization by an additional +1 or +2 points (e.g. a Wizard 7 / Red Wizard 10 with Practiced Spellcaster: Wizard casting spells from his chosen school of Specialization would be benefiting as a 26th-level caster, and would thus receive an Epic Bonus of +2 to his spell-save DC).
