Spells
Within PathRunner, all Spells are sorted into Spell Tiers, which dictate the power of the spell, and in turn the minimum amount of Mana required to cast it. To cast a spell, you must expend Mana equal to the Tier of the spell. For example, casting a Tier 4 spell costs 4 MP. When casting a spell, a character typically expends the Mana required as a Standard Action which provokes Attacks of Opportunity. Unless otherwise stated, the saving throw DC against a Spell is equal to (10 + Spell Tier + the caster's Primary Casting Attribute modifier).
To learn Spells, you must buy them with Experience. Spells cost an amount of Experience to learn equal to their Tier. This means that learning a Tier 4 spell costs 4 EXP.
Cantrips do not cost any Experience to learn. Instead, any character who possesses a Caster Level of 1 or more may study magic for a period of four hours to learn any Cantrip. Succeeding at a Spellcraft check (DC 10) progressively lowers this time requirement, at GM discretion.
