06-12-07, 02:53 PM I have a question on the topic of Bonus Spells and Spell-Casting Prodigy.

It is shown on the table on page 8 of the PHB that the higher your INT,CHA or WIS, the more Bonus Spells you get. Also, using the feat Spell-Casting Prodigy for the sake of Bonus spells, gives you a +2 to your INT/CHA/WIS.

My question is, when it comes to Bonus spells does it mean Spells per day? In the case of Sorcerors or Bards/Assassins, or any other caster who has a very limited selection of Spells to choose from, does your Cha/Wis/Etc also affect your Spells Known?

Affects only spells per day. Spellcasting Prodigy *might* give you an extra first level spell at first level when you start with a wziard, but I'm not quite sure of that, I'd have to read Feat Description for that. But spontaneous casters do not gain extra spells known from a high ability modifier (well, none of the CORE spontaneous casters do. YMMV).
