'''Main Spells:''' Main spells are regular spell slots, prepared and expended the normal way, with a spell level up to the highest level the class could normally cast (class level divided by 2, rounded up).

'''Backup Spells:''' Backup spells are prepared like normal, but are not expended when cast and can be used at-will. If you have the ability to fill an empty slot with 15 minutes of preparation (or similar), then you can swap out a filled backup slot in that time.

You are limited in the number of backup spells active at once to the number of backup spells you have. If you cast a backup spell with a duration other than instantaneous, and you already had the maximum number of backup spells with durations active at once, you choose one backup spell to end immediately.

Backup spells have a maximum spell level of two levels lower than the class could normally cast, or 0, whichever is higher (class level divided by 2, rounded up, minus 2).
