I would like to take the Sword of the Arcane Order feat later, but I'm guessing that the fluff will need to be changed. It is from Champions of Valor, and lets a ranger prepare wizard spells in their spell slots.
Sword of the Arcane Order [General] Prereq: pal4 of Azuth\Mystra or rgr4 Mystra, Int13, member of the Knights of the Mystic Fire, order of the Shooting Star, or Swords of the High One.
Benefit: Use spell slots to prepare known wizard spells. Add pal\rgr class levels to wiz level to determine caster level.
CoV p.34
I'd love to combine it with the
Mystic Ranger from Dragon 336, but I didn't think of this when we were starting. So I'd have to redo a couple of things (change the longsword into something else, mainly).
I realize this is a pretty powerful combination, but it's a gestalt game, and I'm not playing a full caster, so...
