[Spellcasting] Feats

Spellcasting feats are a type of scaling feat that grants increasing bonuses based on the highest spell level you can cast. They were created to mimic the structure [Combat] and [Skill] feats, and make the acquisition of additional thematic ability sets possible at higher levels. As a result they have no prerequisites and provide a significant benefit at whatever level they are taken.

They were suggested in Races of War, part of the Tome series of Homebrew, but no feats of this type appear in that work.
