[QUOTE="Desdichado, post: 2429761, member: 2205"] I agree. A few months ago I ran a campaign where we used Cthulhu magic to replace D&D magic. The character with the lowest WIS (and hence, lowest SAN) was the most intrigued by magic, and he picked up tons of spells that had enough SAN penalty to cast that he was almost guaranteed to have "an episode" every time he cast a spell. Not that that stopped him ever. After an encounter (which the PCs totally caused; they could have easily avoided) one character was a charred husk in negative hitpoints, that guy was going through a bout of temporary insanity, and the other character was in single digit hitpoints. They had to leave their guide and their stuff back in town as they ran away into the desert to hide from the enraged populace. But it was tons of fun. We really enjoy that style of play. From what I've seen of Dark Legacies, it looks awesome, and totally up my alley. I'm a bit cash flow crunched at the moment, but I'm looking forward to picking up both of these books as soon as possible, RSP. [/QUOTE]
