I run a different kind of reincarnation, anyway - characters can only return in an existing, nearby body. The availability determines the sex and race, rather than the standard table.

Wouldn't that just encourage people to steal bodies with better physical stats than theirs?

It would.

But the campaign has a general prohibition against resurrection-type spells, anyway, which help balance them (If reincarnate is a crime, only criminals will reincarnate! ;)). As it is, it is a powerful motivator for the Evil of the world to dabble in dark magics (such as reincarnation). Without really changing much of the rules, it gives a usually beneficial magic a sinister cast.

It's alright. Even I don't spell it correctly most of the time.

But I think we're hijacking a thread, so...

How about that reincarnation? Eh?

I think it's a pity the rules dont allow for gender change. I mean, whay's the point in dying if I can't come back as a.. Well, something else. Reading the spell description.. You come back as a youn adult. So, if you're willing to lose a level every once in a while, get yourself killed before you croak naturally, and accept a good chance of a new race, this seems a great way to get out of dying of old age!
