Courteous Magocracy

Post by hollyfant »

The Courteous Magocracy background trait is currently still available to characters, even though half its original purpose (+2 to lore checks) no longer functions. In PnP, the feat has been renamed "Spellwise", and now functions thus:
Player's Guide to Faerûn wrote:Spellwise [Regional]
You were raised in a land where mighty wizards are common. Everyone in your homeland knows something about magic, and you have learned that things are sometimes not as they appear.

Prerequisite: Elf (Evermeet) or human (Calimshan, Halruaa, Nimbral, Samarach, Shadovar, or the Wizards’ Reach).
Benefit: You receive a +2 bonus on all Knowledge (arcana) and Spellcraft checks. You also get a +2 bonus on saving throws against illusion spells or effects.
Special: You may select this feat only as a 1st-level character. You may have only one regional feat.
Do we want to drop Courteous Magocracy, or modify it to match PnP? Can it even be modified? And what of players who now have the now gimped feat?
