In either case, wizards prove a cunning and potent lot, capable of smiting their foes, empowering their allies, and shaping the world to their every desire. While some might choose a particular field of magical study and become masters of such powers, others embrace versatility, reveling in the unbounded wonders of all magic. These shrewd magic-users seek, collect, and covet esoteric knowledge, drawing on cultic arts to work wonders beyond the abilities of mere mortals. The works of beings beyond mortals, the legends of realms where gods and spirits tread, the lore of creations both wondrous and terrible-such mysteries call to those with the ambition and the intellect to rise above the common folk to grasp true might. You have no trouble positing the existence of arcane magic, but you have trouble positing that you can't cast healing spells with it?Ī better analogy would be "Why can't a fighter sing?"īeyond the veil of the mundane hide the secrets of absolute power. There are plenty of likely explanations, and if you are that interested, why not explore them in a bit of world building in your own games? It might be that positive engergy needs a devotion to some outside power (a god, a 'patron', nature, some cause.music) in order to work effectively.

It also might, in part, be a cross guilds issue (not wanting to step on the holymen's toes), it might be because necromancy, which would be the appropriate school for such magic, has such a poor reputation (and the only existing full arcane class with cure spells are witches.and we know their reputation). Bards are willing to do it though, since they are jacks-of-all-trades that like to have a bit of everything to be self-sufficient. So many better things to do with their time than to reinvent the wheel when there is a wheel factory right next door.
ah, my point? Well, with the existence of infernal healing for emergencies (it takes most people from dying to right as rain in a minute) as well as the VERY extensive networks of clerics and other holy sorts running about, most wizards find that there is little reason to develop such techniques. *sweet guitar riff for which I lack the musical knowledge to make into onomatopoeia*
