Spell points

Spell points are the resource used for casting spells. The source of these spell points can vary from class to class, such as being drawn from the arcane essence or granted by a divine power.

Here is a summary of how different classes and subclasses are categorized. Each class entry also denotes the category it belongs to:

Cost of casting a spell

Casting a spell deducts spell points equal to the spell’s level from the character’s total. Ritual casting does not consume spell points. For example, casting a third-level spell like “Fireball” would reduce a character’s spell points by 3.

Regaining spell points

Spell points are regained according to specific class or subclass guidelines, which detail the conditions under which these points are recovered.
