Cantrips: Battlemages learn a number of cantrips, or 0-level spells, as noted above. These spells are cast like any other spell, but they do not consume any slots and may be used again.
Arcane Secret: As a battlemage gains experience, she learns a number of secrets that aid her and confound her foes. A battlemage cannot select an individual secret more than once. For convenience, the secrets are organized into secret chains.
Armor Training (Ex): A battlemage learns to be more maneuverable while wearing armor. Whenever she is wearing armor, she reduces the armor check penalty by 1 (to a minimum of 0) and increases the maximum Dexterity bonus allowed by her armor by 1.
In addition, a battlemage can also move at her normal speed while wearing medium armor.

Improved Arcane Channeling: The battlemage can cast any touch spell she knows as part of full-attack action; the spell affects each target hit with a melee weapon attack this round (including attacks of opportunity) until the start of the battlemage's next turn. Spells that would normally last longer than 1 round are discharged at the start of the battlemage's next turn. The battlemage must be 8th level to select this secret.
Quick Cast: The battlemage can cast one spell each day as a swift action, so long as the casting time of the spell is 1 standard action or less.

The battlemage can select this secret a number of times equal to her battlemage level; each time allows the battlemage to use quick cast an additional time per day.

After successfully damaging an opponent with a melee attack, the battlemage gains a +2 bonus on her caster level check to overcome spell resistence agains that opponent for 1 day.
