The Scholar class is an Intelligence based non-spellcaster class that lets D&D players take on the role of tactical geniuses, medical prodigies, and savants of all stripes. It has been over a year since our last draft of the Scholar and, thanks to the persistence of readers who repeatedly requested a complete version of the class, presented here is the first full draft of the class from levels 1 to 20. This Scholar class was originally inspired by reddit user wdalright’s first draft of a class by the same name. You can find his take on this concept on the DM’s Guild.
