[QUOTE="SylverFlame, post: 463168, member: 8423"] [b]My system[/b] I had a system in 2e that went like this. It was mostly for high level summons but would work for everything. ___________________________________ The casting time became 30minutes/spell level. ALL rituals had components with a cost of no less than 100gp/level (increase for exotic stuff). A one time purchase of "equipment" was required (alter, bowls, etc.). Preperations time was 10minutes/level (had to meet this before casting) and this could be reduced by additional casters (10min/caster). EG: A third level spell required 30min of prep but three casters could do it in 10min. These casters need not be able to cast the ritual (any fool can sweep the floor for example). As well, appropriate checks had to made. I would disallow taking twenty as casting a warding circle to hold a demon is EXTREMELY stressful since one mistake and you will be a smear on the wall. ____________________________________ That's really it. I tried keeping it simple because players would only use rituals occasionally. [/QUOTE]
