Combining Rituals and Skill Challenges

hmm..

I also had an idea a while back regarding rituals and skill challenges. Not in the acquisition of the rituals, but in the actual casting of them.

Many of them have associated skill checks already. Making that skill check a skill challenge could be really fun. Imagine a group of people working together to summon a demon, a task which, if they get wrong, will result in a major problem for them!

I'm not sure how I'd break down the various skill rolls, etc. But the process of summoning the demon could be an encounter in itself.

I really like that idea!

One thing I'd like to see is the "Ye Olde Spellcasters Trying to Wrest Control from One Another", or the situation where you have two dudes shooting energy at one another, and it's a test of wills and power, the energy going towards one guy, then towards the other.
