He must choose and prepare his spells ahead of time by getting 8 hours of sleep and spending 1 hour studying his spellbook. While studying the swordmage decides which spells to prepare. A swordmage must study his spellbook each day to prepare his spells. He cannot prepare any spell not recorded in his spellbook. A swordmage begins play with a spellbook containing all 0-level wizard spells plus three 1st-level wizard spells of his choice. The swordmage also selects a number of additional 1st-level wizard spells equal to his Intelligence modifier to add to his spellbook. At each new swordmage level, he gains two new wizard spells of any spell level or levels that he can cast (based on his new swordmage level) for his spellbook. At any time a swordmage can also add spells found in other spellbooks to his own. A swordmage can learn spells from a wizard’s spellbook, just as a wizard can from a swordmage.

 **<font inherit/inherit;;#ffc671;;inherit>Combat Magic (Ex):</font>    ** At 1st level, a swordmage learns to cast spells and wield his weapons at the same time. This functions much like two-weapon fighting, but the off-hand weapon is a spell that is being cast. To use this ability, the swordmage must have one hand free or holding an implement (even if the spell being cast does not have somatic components), while wielding a light or one-handed melee weapon in the other hand. As a full-round action, he can make all of his attacks with his melee weapon at a –2 penalty and can also cast any spell from the wizard spell list with a casting time of 1 standard action (any attack roll made as part of this spell also takes this penalty). The swordmage provokes attacks of opportunity as normal when casting a spell in this manner, and must cast defensively in order to avoid these attacks of opportunity. A swordmage can choose to cast the spell first or make the weapon attacks first, but if he has more than one attack, he cannot cast the spell between weapon attacks. **<font inherit/inherit;;#ffc671;;inherit>Combat Magic (Ex):</font>    ** At 1st level, a swordmage learns to cast spells and wield his weapons at the same time.

 **<font inherit/inherit;;rgb(255, 198, 113);;inherit>Spellstrike (Su):</font>    ** At 2nd level, whenever a swordmage casts a spell with a range of “touch” from the wizard spell list, he can deliver the spell through any weapon he is wielding as part of a melee attack. Instead of the free melee touch attack normally allowed to deliver the spell, a swordmage can make one free melee attack with his weapon (at his highest base attack bonus) as part of casting this spell. If successful, this melee attack deals its normal damage as well as the effects of the spell. If the swordmage makes this attack in concert with the combat magic ability, this melee attack takes all the penalties accrued by combat magic melee attacks. This attack uses the weapon’s critical range (20, 19–20, or 18–20 and modified by the keen weapon property or similar effects), but the spell effect only deals ×2 damage on a successful critical hit, while the weapon damage uses its own critical modifier. **<font inherit/inherit;;rgb(255, 198, 113);;inherit>Spellstrike (Su):</font>    ** At 2nd level, whenever a swordmage casts a spell with a range of “touch” from the wizard spell list, he can deliver the spell through any weapon he is wielding as part of a melee attack.

These special enhancements function only for the swordmage that inscribed the sigils. The enhancements last until the swordmage chooses to erase the sigils or is slain. A swordmage can only enhance one weapon in this way at one time. If he attunes to another weapon, the sigils on the previous weapon disappear. Each sigil the swordmage places on his weapon requires a certain amount of spell points. The swordmage has a number of spell points equal to his swordmage level to spend on abilities. Each ability can only be purchased once unless its description says otherwise.
