[QUOTE="fuindordm, post: 6552101, member: 5435"] Sounds like a really fun game. Good luck! A thought about the gothi: norse stories involving magic were more about learning magic than having it innately; therefore the wizard method of learning and preparing spells might be a better fit. There were a lot of secret codes going on too, such as the "tree runes" that signified a letter in the futhark by referencing its number. So it could be fun to have the gothi protecting their trade secrets (spells) from each other, and researching new spells, and so on. Linguisitics would be a good class skill for them to read each other's coded spells and messages. In fact, the more I think about it the more I'm inclined to just create a single spell list for skalds and gothi by cherry-picking spells from all the PH classes. Then gothi are the versatile casters, skalds are nearly as powerful but more limited in spell knowledge, and anyone else has to dabble through feats or half-classes. [/QUOTE]
