(9nth to cantrip.)And now that I think about it, the formula for scaling spells up.(Hmm, apply the miniaturization effect backwards and you could pass along versions of 1st level spells that require higher level slots. Giving an advantage to you if you're attempting to control an arms race or just want your potential future opponents to have much weaker spells than you.)Modular Spells (Energy Golem Type)Problem: What spells should be in an emergency life support magical item?Correction: Progression of problems.1 What spells should be in an emergency life support magical item?2 How do we keep them at hand for quick use?3 What if we end up in outer space? What protections would we need?4 What about getting back home? How do we travel in space?5 What if it takes a while? Beyond the duration of the spell?6 How about using it on the ground when in dangerous weather?7 What if we need weapons?8 What if the pods weapons/legs/lights/comm system could be attached directly to the emergency survival pod after it had been activated by outside spells?9 What if you could switch them out?And wall-ah Modular spells. (Wall eh, wally, viola? Bah, Ta-Da!)Modular EquipmentProblem: Is there a way to keep our magical equipment from being destroyed?2 Is there a way to reduce the chance they'll be destroyed?3 Is there a way to reduce the price of replacing magical equipment?4 How would that work?Leading to equipment that channels spell effects and chips that provide effects.They're back and forth questions leading to answers leading to more questions which lead to...What I'm personally asking is if these methods seem fair enough to be allowed in games and what other building techniques and ? techniques could be applied to expand what magic and spells are able to do.</blockquote>
