Order of Scribes wizards specialize in quickly copying spells into their spellbooks, modifying spell damage types, gaining tactical advantage during combat or exploration, crafting spell scrolls, and surviving lethal blows by sacrificing bits of their magic. In other words, there’s no better time to hit the books and experiment with the Order of Scribes. While there may be flashier schools of wizardry in D&D, if you’re someone who loves the image of an elderly magus who’s so fond of his spell tome that he actually managed to create a spectral version of it to fight alongside him, then a certain Arcane Tradition from Tasha’s Cauldron of Everything is perfect for you - particularly with this week’s release of Candlekeep Mysteries, a collection of adventures featuring the grandest library of the Forgotten Realms as a hub. While other enchanters might receive their powers from bloodlines and eldritch patrons, wizards fill out their spell slots the old-fashioned way - through careful study and transcription of the printed page.

Wizards are without a doubt the most bookish class in Dungeons & Dragons.
