Archetypes
Arcane Bomber
To many wizards, the experimentation of the alchemist seems quaint, if not dangerous or frightening. A few wizards take up the secrets of the bomb, however, fusing alchemy with their already considerable magical power.
Thassilonian Specialist
While the concept of wizard specializations along the classically recognized schools of magic certainly dates back to the time of Azlant, and perhaps beyond into the dim recesses of time before humanity rose to prominence, it was the runelords of Thassilon who explored school specialization to its full extreme. Focusing their research on the discovery that each school of magic was opposed by two specific opposition schools, the runelords developed methods of further enhancing their mastery over their chosen arcane specialties. Essentially, they defined these seven schools as much by what they couldn't do as by what they could. By excising "impurities" introduced by fixed oppositional schools, they traded arcane versatility for greater strength in their chosen fields.

Exploiter Wizard
Contrary to traditional wizardly study, an exploiter wizard forgoes the tried and true methods of arcane focus and arcane schools for the exploits favored by an arcanist. Some wizards regard this blatant exploitation of arcane magic as somehow "cheating," but most exploiters believe this prejudice is close-minded and overly traditional.

Elemental Specialist
Wizards sometimes specialize in utilizing one element, converting other elements into their own.
Spell Master
Usually wizards specialize in a magic school, delivering greater impact in a focused manner, but spell masters try to make their expertise as broad as possible.

Cruoromancer
To those who know how to manipulate it, the blood of a dhampir can be a powerful component to magic. A cruoromancer infuses his necromantic magic with the power of his unique mixture of living blood and undead ichor. As his power increases in this strange arcane art, a cruoromancer finds potent ways to infuse his unique blood with Necromancy spells.

Shadowcaster
Shadowcasters wield the dark powers of the Shadow Plane to achieve their ends. These masters of illusions can control shadows, summon shadow creatures, and induce fear in their foes, though this darkness has corrupted many a heedless wizard.
