Hi, guys!

Sorry for the silly question but, here it goes:

A character in my table is playing an Apprentice Wizard for the first time and I never had a wizard in the group before, so the question is WITH HOW MANY Spells does the apprentice wiZard begin play?
Does he buy them like action cards? Or does he have some for free (like those Petty Magics)?

Thanks for the attention!

He starts with Cantrip, Magic Dart, Channel Power and Counter Spell for free and buys the others in the same way any other character would buy action cards both before and after character creation (0-3 character points before and at least 1XP each after).

But you only get the free spells if you start as a wizard, transferring into the career does not get you the free spells, you have to buy them like any other actions cards.

What does a Witch start with?

Ok! Thanks!

Surely my friend will be a little disappointed, but… Well, he has too many spells already! lol!
