At 2nd level, and every even level afterwards, the White Mage may select one Opal Talent. Each talent can only be selected once unless specified afterwards.
Arcane Gift
Instead of discharging a spell directly, for an additional MP, you may bestow the spell onto an allies weapon. For a number of rounds equal to the White Mage's Wisdom modifier, the spell lingers. Whenever the gifted weapon connects with an attack, the wielder can discharge the spell, resolving as if the original spell had hit 1 over the target's AC, and resolving normally otherwise
Practiced Metamagic
The White Mage may select one of their Metamagic feats. The selected Metamagic feat may then be used once per day without increasing MP costs. This feat may be taken more than once. Each time, a different feat must be selected.
Prerequisite: 1 Metamagic Feat
Opal Fighter
The White Mage counts his White Mage levels as Fighter levels for the purposes of meeting the prerequisites for feats that specifically select his spells, such as Weapon Specialization (ray). The White mage treats his spells as weapons for the purposes of taking feats like Improved Critical, or using feats like Arcane Strike.
Magical Artisan
The White Mage may take an item creation feat. They must meet the prerequisites of the item creation feat. This talent can be taken multiple times, to a maximum of 1 per 5 levels in White Mage.
Prerequisite: White Mage Level 5.
Familiar
The White mage forms a powerful bond with a familiar. A familiar is a magical pet that enhances the White mage’s skills and senses and can aid him in magic. See this link for more information on familiars, substituting the White Mage’s White Mage levels in place of wizard levels.
Kindness Is Power
The White mage’s understanding of physical forces gives him power over them. He adds his Wisdom modifier on combat maneuver checks and to his CMD. He also adds his Wisdom modifier on Strength checks to break or lift objects.
Magical Expertise
The White Mage may take a metamagic feat. They must meet the prerequisites of the metamagic feat. This talent can be taken multiple times, to a maximum of 1 per 5 levels in White Mage.
Prerequisite: White Mage Level 5.
Ritual Lore
The White mage is privy to the rituals of the occult. He gains Practiced Ritualist as a bonus feat without needing to meet the prerequisites. In addition, he can apply the benefits of the feat to Spellcraft checks in order to tap into leylines for a ritual.
Aetheric Dispelling
The White Mage learns to pull on his extra reserves to remove magic. He may spend Aetherial MP in place of normal MP to cast Dispel.
Prerequisite: Dispel spell
Aetheric Counterspell
The White Mage learns to pull on his extra reserves to remove magic. He may spend Aetherial MP in place of normal MP to cast Counterspell.
Prerequisite: Aetheric Dispelling, Dispel Spell, Counterspell Spell
Staff-Like Wand
The White mage’s research has unlocked a new power in conjunction with using a wand. Similar to using a magic staff, he uses his own Wisdom score and relevant feats to set the DC for saves against spells he casts from a wand, and he can use his caster level when activating the power of a wand if it’s higher than the caster level of the wand.
Prerequisite: He must have the Craft Staff feat to select this talent.
