School of Tax Evasion

This school is that of mages that focus their studies in the art of tax evasion. These mages are capable of deceiving others, and detecting similar deception within others, as well as evading taxes. Some tax evaders use their beguiling nature for mundane tasks, such as getting away with shoplifting. However, some tax evaders use their powers for far more sinister means, such as taking control of nations and using their charismatic abilities to rule unopposed. 

Minor Tax Evasion

Your training in the school of tax evasion enables you to, on occasion, completely avert the cost of transcribing spells into your spellbook. When copying a spell of a spell level lower than the maximum level you are capable of casting into your spellbook, you may roll 1d100. If a number from 00-05 is rolled, the spell costs nothing to transcribe. Anything between a 06-15, the spell costs half to transcribe. Anything between 16-94, the spell costs the normal amount. However, if you roll anything between from 95-99, the spell transcription fails, and you have wasted the cost of transcription, and the copying process must be attempted again.

Tax Conman

Beginning when you select this school at 2nd level, your abilities to con your way out of situations becomes extraordinary. You gain proficiency with the Deception and Persuasion skills, if you do not have them already. Additionally, you gain the Friends cantrip. If you already know this cantrip, you may learn a different wizard cantrip of your choice. This cantrip does not count against your number of cantrips known.

Deceiver's Clarity

Starting at 6th level, your ability to deceive others has grown to the extent that you can recognize the signs of it within other beings. When purchasing any items, you may roll an Insight check with advantage to learn if the price is fair or not. You also gain advantage on saving throws against being charmed.

Silver-Tongued

At 6th level, you add the Fast Friends spell to your spellbook, if it is not there already. You can cast Fast Friends without expending a spell slot. However, when you cast the spell in this way, the target does not know it was charmed by you upon the spell ending. 

Once you cast Fast Friends in this way, you can't do so again until you finish a short or long rest, though you can still cast it normally using an available spell slot.

Greater Tax Evasion

You have progressed in your studies in the School of Tax Evasion to the point where it has made evading taxes significantly easier. Starting at 10th level, when copying any spell into your spellbook, you may roll a d100. If a number from 00-15 is rolled, the spell costs nothing to transcribe. Anything between a 16-50, the spell costs half to transcribe. Anything between 51-94, the spell costs the normal amount. However, if you roll anything between from 95-99, the spell transcription fails, and you have wasted the cost of transcription, and the copying process must be attempted again.

Sight of the Misleader

Starting at 14th level, your ability to evade and cheat your way out of situations has grown to the extent where you can see through the trickery of others. As a bonus action, you may temporarily gain truesight until the end of your next turn. You may use this ability a number of times equivalent to your Intelligence modifier. You regain all expended uses upon finishing a long rest.
