[QUOTE="SeaJay, post: 5762495, member: 6671435"] Re-tweaked for your discerning eye. [B]Alternative Magic System[/B] Players have two options when casting spells. 1. Cast the spell as normal, and it gets wiped from the caster’s mind as normal. 2. Roll against a target number of 13 + the spell’s level. This is known as the spell’s Difficulty Class (DC). Add the character’s Intelligence modifier (if any) to the d20 roll. Any result equal to or greater than the DC is a success. [B]A[/B] [B]Success[/B] = the spell is cast, no manna is lost, and the spell doesn't get wiped from the caster’s mind. [B]A[/B] [B]Fail[/B] = the spell fails, manna is lost, but the spell doesn’t get wiped from the caster’s mind. [B]A[/B] [B]Fail by 3 or more[/B] = the spell fails, manna is lost, and the spell is wiped from the caster’s mind. [B]Repetitive Castings[/B]: If the same spell is cast more than once during an 8 hour period, the casting of that spell carries a penalty equal to the number of times the spell is cast. For example, twice in a row and it’s a -2 penalty, three times in a row and it’s a -3 penalty and so on.
