[RPG] What other ways are there to make a Wizard more intelligent

optimizationpathfinder-1e

There are four ways I know of to get your intelligence increased as a Wizard:

This limits a wizard to a 'measly' maximum of 36 intelligence: base 18 + 2 (race) + 6 (headband or stones) + 5 (levels) + 5 (tome).

What other ways that will stack with these can a Wizard increase their intelligence?

Polymorphing (or race changing) is semi-acceptable, but this is not a ideal solution as a permanent bonus is preferred without changing race.

Become a Lich

Pathfinder Lich Template

You get +2 to Intelligence for forsaking your humanity.

Mind you, this means you value your own humanity at 4,000 gold and are willing to pay 120,000 gold.

Creating a Lich: Each lich must create its own phylactery by using the Craft Wondrous Item feat. The character must be able to cast spells and have a caster level of 11th or higher. The phylactery costs 120,000 gp to create and has a caster level equal to that of its creator at the time of creation.
