[QUOTE="cybernetic, post: 3615252, member: 1542"] I was pondering over doing via the Saga rules today and here are some ideas and observations. -- Sorcerers -- I think it would make things interesting if we just dropped the Sorcerer class and made it into a feat. Sorcery. The Sorcery feat would be similar to Force Sensitivity - Anyone can take it. - It allows the character to make "Use Magic" (or whatever skill is created for arcane magic) skill checks Untrained. - It grants a number of Inherent Spells or Powers (maybe 1+Cha Mod when you take it and Cha Mod for each additional instance of the feat taken). - These powers are considered to be a part of the character's natural abilities even though they work like other spells. If a character takes the Wizard/Mage class, the Sorcerer and Wizard spells are accounted seperately. - This would allow for anyone to be a "Sorcerer". (i.e. you could have both a Fighter Sorcerer and a Mage Sorcerer). -- Wizards (I prefer the term Mage) -- My wizard works by a hybrid of old and new. - The Wizard class grants an evolving (by level) Spell Matrix (SP). - Wizards also keep Grimoires to store their known spells in. - A Wizard can have a number of Spell Formulae "loaded" into their SP at any given time (dependant on level). - When a spell is cast, it is spent from the SP (like a Force Power Array). - The Wizard can recover (and change) his SP contents by studying his Grimoire much like a Jedi does with force. - A Wizard can reload a spell from his Grimoire into a spent space with a Full Round Action and a Successful Concentration Check (DC could be increased in combat). - Wizards would also require a Focus for their spells (i.e. Wand, Staff, etc). This could even be the above Spell Matrix. What do you all think? [/QUOTE]
