Tactics
Before Combat The ratfolk sage casts mage armor on himself each morning. Because he avoids entering direct combat, if battle is imminent, the ratfolk sage casts spider climb on himself and climbs to a defensible position. If he is with several allies, he uses his wand of blur and scrolls of magic weapon on them and their weapons before he does so.
During Combat The ratfolk sage casts wall of fire to divide up the battlefield and trap the ratfolk's enemies. He then casts offensive spells until he runs out, at which point he uses a scroll of magic weapon on his light crossbow before making attacks. If cornered, the sage uses dimension door to free himself.
Base Statistics Without mage armor and spider climb, the ratfolk sage's statistics are
AC 13, touch 13, flat-footed 11
Speed 20 ft.
Skills Climb –2.
Considered superior to spellcasting by many ratfolk, alchemy produces more items for sale and creates remedies that benefit the warren.
