Maester - General Prestige Class
This is a general Prestige class that may be applicable to the Forgotten Realms Campaign
Maesters are the master crafters of the gnome world, combining technical and magical expertise to create incredible marvels. They specialize in the creation of magic items, bending all their skill and ability toward the construction of items that are their art and livelihood.
