#####R=== Sorcerors ===

#####GDescription
Sorcerors are to magic what Unbelievers are to melee. They are the all-
around best magicians, being able to cast spells from any school using
only a single skill. They cannot comfortably use any weapon but a Mage Staff, and even with a Mage Staff, they will be unable to achieve anything remotely resembling battle effectiveness. 

The energies used for learning Sorcery also sap the life force of a
Sorceror, penalising them with the loss of a percentage of their hit
points equal to their Sorcery skill score and penalising their combat
ability even more strongly.

For more information on magic schools and spell effects see the 
*****magic.txt*01[Magic help file].
