Dragon Magazine #317 has a class from the campaign setting Al-Qadim (which apparently means "old" in Arabic), called the Sha'ir. It's has a unique method of spell preparation that allows it to prepare any spell it knows (it gets a small list of those) in 1d4+spell level rounds, any sorc/wiz spell it doesn't know in 1d6+spell level minutes, or any divine spell from a list of cleric domains in 1d6+spell level hours.
Now, having every spell on the sorc/wiz list is awesome, and the prep time is pretty short (depending on what spells you want to prepare during the day). However, I want to optimize this up the butt and get those spells as quickly as possible.
I want the Sha'ir's spell preparation time to be as small as possible. Right now, Dragon #317 also provides a Ring of Meditation, which cuts spell prep time in half, so a spell known now comes in 0-6 rounds instead of 1-13, and an unkown spell comes in .5-7.5 minutes instead of 1-15.
I want to give it access to the whole sorc/wiz spell list at will. Any ideas?
