Still less than a wizard, though. (And I'm kinda worried about the spell list.)
::::::::::::The False Prophet is one level slower, and 2 9th level spells per day +high Charisma is still enough spells to wreak all sorts of havok. --[[User:Foxwarrior|Foxwarrior]] ([[User talk:Foxwarrior|talk]]) 18:34, 4 December 2012 (UTC)

:Still less than a wizard, though. Which is kinda the point. I don't see how the False Prophet's progression is slower - theoretical spell slots means that the character can still cast spells of that level, it just needs a better ability score than usual. And I should have made it clearer, but just like with the Viewtiful Shogun, level 8 is when you're supposed to fully meet the prerequisites; I made the BAB requirement +7 because I figured a lot of characters might dip into a class with a weaker BAB progression for extra skill points, and I didn't want that to be ''too'' much of a setback. I'm not quite sure what the order of events is when leveling up (I may need to look that up again), but I think that the 1st level of Viewtiful Monarch will be at least the 9th character level.
:And before anyone asks, I know the spell list is really big (maybe getting [[#About the spell list...|a little ''too'' big]]), which is why I'm intentionally leaving ''wish'', ''miracle'', and ''lesser wish'' off of it. I'm pretty sure that the spell list of a class that has to put effort into learning its spells (like, say, wizard) or can only know a finite number of them (like a sorcerer) should be bigger than the spell list of a class that gets all of its spells for free (like a cleric or druid), but this feels a little ridiculous. (Also, I'm kinda curious about how to determine the crown's price. How much of an 8th or 9th-level character's wealth-by-level would 10,000 gp be?) --[[User:Luigifan18|Luigifan18]] ([[User talk:Luigifan18|talk]]) 21:47, 4 December 2012 (UTC)
== About the spell list... ==
The Viewtiful Monarch intentionally gets a large range of spells, from the spell lists of various classes. It learns spells like a wizard does, so I feel like a sizable spell list is justified. But they this is perhaps a ''little'' too much. You'll notice that not all of the wizard's spells are on the list - this is because the Viewtiful Monarch's spells do all have a common theme - they, albeit a broad one. Viewtiful Monarch spells are all meant to be either ''really''re visually impressive, to look at or to empower the Viewtiful Monarch can project herself through themto do really impressive things. Spells whose effects are subtle or take a long time to be felt don't get to be on the spell list. Also, spells that deal with religion or the undead generally don't get to appear on her spell list, and she doesn't get a lot of healing magic more potent than the ''cure'', ''repair'', and ''inflict'' series. There are some things that an arcane caster just shouldn't be able to do, after all. With that said... are there any spells I included that don't actually seem to have a place on her spell list? Because I'm not sure that all of [[Viewtiful Monarch (3.5e Class)#Spells|the spells I put on the page]] are really appropriate for the sort of character I'm envisioning... --[[User:Luigifan18|Luigifan18]] ([[User talk:Luigifan18|talk]]) 16:53, 4 December 2012 (UTC)
