[QUOTE="CockyWriter, post: 1957380, member: 27637"] As a guy writing a webcomic based on a DnD game, my advice is: Stay the hell away from DnD as much as possible. What I mean is instead of sticking to the basic mechanics, make your own. You want magic to be casted only a few times a day? Maybe in your world, excessive magic use can disrupt the flow of energy, weaken your senses (eyesight, hearing), or cause physical strain. As for spells, remember that magic can be literally anything. I don't say in my storyline "This spell will last six seconds. I casted "Charm Monster"." Instead, they just do it and describe it's effects. Instead of "Charm Monster", just describe the creature's pupil turning blank and obey it's master commands. If you are casting mage armor, you can make up your own effects, like a glowing purple armor shrouds the caster. That way, you can avoid any serious conflict with other publishers and WOTC. As long as you make it look like you created it, instead of stole it, then it would be hard to for them to show proof that you 'stole' it from them. [/QUOTE]
