Loremaster is prestige class in Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous. The Loremaster is a gatherer and keeper of secrets. He is often obsessed by the written word, with cryptic and arcane lore serving as his devoted mistress.
"Holding to the adage that knowledge is power, the loremaster often forsakes material wealth and personal glory for rare or unusual information, an endless quest that brings him ever closer to his unattainable goal: perfection through edification. Often rejecting what he views as the pointless affectations and transitory pleasures of his short-sighted neighbors, the loremaster believes that the only worthwhile goal in life is the acquisition of intellectual might. After all, wealth is spent, passions fade, and the power of the body is limited by age, while the mind’s capacity to grow greater with time is infinite."
Loremaster Prerequisites
- One of the following feats: Skill Focus - Knowledge (Arcana) or Skill Focus - Knowledge (World)

Spellbook Selection
When a new Loremaster level is gained, the character gains new Spells per day as if he had also gained a level in a spellcasting class he belonged to before adding the prestige class. He does not, however, gain other benefits a character of that class would have gained, except for additional Spells per day, Spells known (if he is a spontaneous spellcaster), and an increased effective level of spellcasting. If a character had more than one spellcasting class before becoming a Loremaster, he must decide to which Class he adds the new level for purposes of determining Spells per day.
Secret
At 1st level and every two levels higher than 1st (3rd, 5th, 7th, and 9th), the Loremaster chooses one Secret from the following list. He can't choose the same Secret twice.
Cleric Spell, Combat Feat, Druid Spell, Fortitude Secret, Reflex Secret, Rogue Secret, Will Secret, Wizard Feat, Wizard Spell.
Lore
At 2nd level, a Loremaster adds half his level to all Lore and Knowledge skill checks.
Greater Lore
At 6th level, a Loremaster gains the ability to understand magic items. Whenever a Loremaster examines a magic item to determine its properties, he gains a +10 circumstance bonus on his Spellcraft skill check.

As of writing this comment, trying this class on subclasses that replace spell list from one class to another (e.g. Nature Mage of an Arcanist) causes to split the spellbook between the list of the base class and sublcass (e.g. Nature Mage list up to level you reached, then it progresses base spell list of normal Arcanist), essentially preventing you from reaching maximum spell levels.
