'''Eldritch Knight''' is one of the [[Fighter#Level 3|Subclasses]] of [[Fighter]]. These Fighters specialize in [[Spells|spellcasting]], using their martial prowess and magic to attack enemies or support allies in combat. Eldritch Knights use [[Intelligence]] as their [[Spells#Spellcasting Ability and Proficiency|Spellcasting Ability]], and learn spells from the [[Wizard/Spells|Wizard spell list]], favouring the schools of [[Evocation]] and [[Abjuration]].

''*One spell learned at this level can be from [[Wizard/Spells|the entire Wizard Spell List]], the chosen spell must still be of a level for which the Eldritch Knight has spell slots for. (This is in contrast to the normal Eldritch Knight Spell List, which only contains the Abjuration and Evocation spells of the Wizard Spell List)''
