Topic: Where is the sage or "lore master" class

[tommysl]

I'm hoping someone can help me finding a lost class. I'm almost sure that I've read about a "sage" or a "lore master" in RMSS or RMFRP but I've searched all my books but I haven’t been able to find it. So I wonder, does it really exist ? If so, where ? IF not, what class would a wise scholar be?

The Sage is in RMFRP's School of Hard Knocks.

Found it, thank you very much!

I also seem to recall a scholar or something similar in RoCo III.

You had both: the Scholar, a non-spellcaster, and the Sage (or Lore Master), a pure Mentalist spellcaster, in the RoCo II.

There was also a Loremaster profession in one of the Shadow World products.  Can't remember which since it was in a 1st edition product which I no longer possess.  I remember that Shadow World Loremaster was better and cooler than the later Sage and other generic Loremaster that came out for the RM systems.  However, the SW Loremaster was specifically made for Shadow World, but could easily be integrated into other settings.

The Loremaster, I think, goes back to the early RM1 stuff.

If all alse fails, the Mage prof has excellent lore skill cost and could be a defacto loremaster/sage.

There was also a Loremaster profession in one of the Shadow World products.

IIRC, though, the SW LoreMaster wasn't a "true" profession, as  the LoreMasters was more of an organization one would join (similar to the Navigators), and in the process "merge" one's original profession with the LoreMaster profession, including "exchanging" some base lists of one's original profession with the LoreMaster's ones.
