[QUOTE="ThoughtBubble, post: 1327250, member: 9723"] I was working on one of those a little while back. As long as you keep it low level, it works pretty well. Magic becomes another commodity. What's fun to think about though, is how it affects society. Entertainers are far more likely to be illusionists. I mean, you could tell a story, sure, or you could show it right there. Anyone of respect had at least a couple of +1 items. Magical healing was available to those with enough cash for it. Then, just for kicks, I dropped it on a highly decadant and 'classed based' society. A member of a highborn family is probably better trained, more educated, and probablly never has to worry about things like getting hurt because a potion or a healer is always on hand. Then, you have the arcanists forming the upper middle class. Skilled craftsmen (needed to make magical items, but not as necessary as the spell guys) fell into the lower middle class, they can get healing and such if they need it, but it's not the sort of easy to come by occurrance the nobles have. The bottom class was all the normal working folks who still have to do things like manual labor. [/QUOTE]
