Thane the Alchemist is a Tower hero. Thane starts with a spell book and the spell Magic Arrow.

Specialty

Besides the ability mentioned in his description, Thane also gives +1 speed to Genies and Master Genies. The in-game description "{{{herospec}}}" is erroneous in "each level attained" moment, and lacks the speed bonus information. (Description is fixed in HotA ).

Unlike the native terrain speed bonus, the creature specialty speed bonus can affect the hero's movement points in case the creature is the slowest one in the army.
