[QUOTE="Blue, post: 8224494, member: 20564"] More ideas, pick one or more. Feel free to combine with my earlier list: [LIST] [*]Regaining spell slots requires spending a HD per spell level of the slot. Special addendum: slots may be brought back at a lower level. [*]Spells above 2nd level require Concentration to cast, which will interrupt other Concentration. Spells above 4th level also require a Concentration check to complete, DC 6 + 2 * spell slot level. Failure means you lose the slot. [LIST] [*]Alternate - failure means roll on the Wild Magic table. [/LIST] [*]Casting also costs HPs equal to the slot level. (Either magical feedback or needing to spend your own essence to cast.) [*]Casting more than 5 spell levels worth before taking a rest grants a level of Exhaustion. [*]Concentration is difficult and you grant Advantage to all attacks and have Disadvantage on ability checks while doing so. [*]Spells take up two slots. The second slot may be of any level that could cast the spell. Upcasting uses the lower of the two slots. [*]All spellcasting except innate (some monsters) have V&S components. The somatic components require both hands. [*]Spell attack rolls are made with disadvantage, save against spells are made with advantage. [*]Spells may only be cast as rituals. If they do not have the ritual tag they may still be cast as rituals but consume the slot as normal. [*]All dice used within a spell are shrunk one die size. A d4 becomes a d2. So fireball does 8d4 damage and Bless adds 1d2 to d20 rolls. [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
