So, the Essentials Mage class operates off of schools of Magic. Each spell in that book contains either the Enchantment, Illusion, or Evocation Keyword.

Problem is, the only one of those 3 keywords that exists in other Wizard spells is Illusion. Which means that, while Illusionists have a wider selection of spells available to them in supplements like Arcane Power, Evocators and Enchanters have no such luck.

A quick houserule to expand the spell lists here:

- Any Wizard spell that deals Fire, Cold, Lightning, Acid, or Thunder damage gains the Evocation Keyword.

- Any Wizard spell that deals psychic damage and does not possess the Illusion keyword, or has the Charm keyword, gains the Enchantment keyword.

Thoughts?
