[QUOTE="Turanil, post: 1624649, member: 9646"] Would it be an idea you would consider for a next product of yours? Personnaly, I would well see it also reminding of Dark Sun, where the world's ambiance is concerned, but with gunslingers instead of templars... Otherwise, it seems that the lobster-like creature depicted p.170 of Grim Tales, is one of the [I]Dud-a-chum / Dod-a-chock[/I] monsters who plague Roland in [I]The Drawing of the Three[/I]. ;) Well, I am now considering this houserule for a [B]Stormbringer / Grim tales[/B] campaign: Level of spellcasting is equal to the spell-level + the caster's number of [I]Magical Adept[/I] talents. However, this is only when in a place predominently under the rule of Chaos. In places where Law rules stronger, magic becomes much more difficult to cast. In terms of game mechanics, it "locally / temporarily reduces" the number of [I]Magical Adept[/I] talents a caster may have. As such, if a character has 3 [I]Magical Adept[/I] talents, in a region where magic is at -2, he will operate as if he had only 1 [I]Magical Adept[/I] talent. In a region where magic is at -3, he will operate as if he had no [I]Magical Adept[/I] talent, so here spells burn again his Constitution. This could even lead to spell no functioning any more at all (as should be obviously the case in planes only ruled by Law). [/QUOTE]
