 <php>echo "<b><font color=\"#FFC671\">Arcane Bond (Ex):</font></b>";</php> At 1st level, wizards form a powerful bond with an object or a creature. The wizard selects one of the following abilities:
-  * <php>echo "<i><font color=\"#BDDEFF\">Familiar:</font></i>";</php> A familiar is a magical pet that enhances the wizard’s skills and senses and can aid him in magical endeavors. Rules for familiars appear on the familiars page of the wiki.
+  * <php>echo "<i><font color=\"#BDDEFF\">Familiar:</font></i>";</php> A familiar is a magical pet that enhances the wizard’s skills and senses and can aid him in magical endeavors. Rules for familiars appear on the [[Familiars|Familiars]] page of the wiki.
   * <php>echo "<i><font color=\"#BDDEFF\">Bonded Object:</font></i>";</php> Wizards who select a bonded object begin play with one at no cost. Objects that are the subject of an arcane bond must fall into one of the following categories: amulet, ring, staff, wand, or weapon. These objects always possess the masterwork quality. Weapons acquired at 1st level are not made of any special material. If the object is an amulet or ring, it must be worn to have effect, while staves, wands, and weapons must be wielded. If a wizard attempts to cast a spell without his bonded object worn or in hand, he must make a Concentration check or lose the spell. The DC for this check is equal to 20 + the spell’s level. If the object is a ring or amulet, it occupies the ring or neck slot accordingly. A bonded object can be used once per day to cast any one spell that the wizard has in his spellbook and is capable of casting, even if the spell is not prepared. This spell is treated like any other spell cast by the wizard, including casting time, duration, and other effects dependent on the wizard’s level. This spell cannot be modified by metamagic feats or other abilities. The bonded object cannot be used to cast spells from the wizard’s opposition schools (see arcane school). A wizard can add additional magic abilities to his bonded object as if he has the required crafting feats and if he meets the level prerequisites of the feat. For example, a wizard with a bonded dagger must be at least 5th level to add magic abilities to the dagger (see the Craft Magic Arms and Armor feat). If the bonded object is a wand, it loses its wand abilities when its last charge is consumed, but it is not destroyed and it retains all of its bonded object properties and can be used to craft a new wand. The magic properties of a bonded object, including any magic abilities added to the object, only function for the wizard who owns it. If a bonded object’s owner dies, or the item is replaced, the object reverts to being an ordinary masterwork item of the appropriate type. If a bonded object is damaged, it is restored to full hit points the next time the wizard prepares his spells. If the object of an arcane bond is lost or destroyed, it can be replaced after 1 week in a special ritual that costs 200 gp per wizard level plus the cost of the masterwork item. This ritual takes 8 hours to complete. Items replaced in this way do not possess any of the additional enchantments of the previous bonded item. A wizard can designate an existing magic item as his bonded item. This functions in the same way as replacing a lost or destroyed item except that the new magic item retains its abilities while gaining the benefits and drawbacks of becoming a bonded item.

This enhancement does not affect the spell’s level. This ability cannot be used to extend a spell with a duration of concentration, instantaneous, or permanent.

 <php>echo "<i><font color=\"#BDDEFF\">Versatile Evocation (Su):</font></i>";</php> At 4th level, when you cast an evocation spell that does acid, cold, electricity, or fire damage, you may change the damage dealt to one of the other three energy types. This changes the descriptor of the spell to match the new energy type. Any non-damaging effects remain unchanged unless the new energy type invalidates them (an ice storm that deals fire damage might still provide a penalty on Perception checks due to smoke, but it would not create difficult terrain). Such effects are subject to DM discretion. You can use this ability a number of times per day equal to 3 + your Intelligence modifier.\\

This ability is treated in all ways as per the magic missile spell, except that the amount of missiles fired is equal to the level of the consumed spell slot, and each missile deals 1d6+1 force damage. This ability is treated as an evocation (force) effect with a spell level equal to the level of the consumed spell slot.

 Additionally, whenever you cast an evocation (force) spell, you gain a +4 bonus on caster level checks to overcome spell resistance.\\
 <php>echo "<i><font color=\"#BDDEFF\">Piercing Energy (Ex):</font></i>";</php> At 20th level, any energy spells that you cast can ignore some or all of a target’s resistance to energy. When casting an evocation spell with an energy descriptor, every creature affected by the spell is treated as if its resistance to the spell’s energy type was 15 points lower, to a minimum of 0. (This lowered resistance applies only for the purposes of this spell; other effects with the same energy descriptor must get through the creature’s normal resistance.) This ability does not give the affected spell any ability to affect creatures with immunity to the spell’s energy type, nor does the affected spell have any additional effect on creatures that do not have resistance to energy. Additionally, whenever you roll a caster level check to overcome spell resistance when casting an evocation spell, you may roll twice and taker the higher result.
