[QUOTE="aco175, post: 8466512, member: 27385"] I would not like playing in a campaign that took the regular spells away to encourage me to find new ones. It nerfs the casters and not the martials. If my DM was trying to get buy-in, I guess I would play a non-caster. I would like a campaign more like [USER=90374]@payn[/USER] is saying with a mage college. There is a patron hiring the young mages and others to round out the group to seek these new spells. Later on, the patron is reveled to have problems with some of the other leaders of the school. He may be looking for certain schools of magic like necromancy or a specific spell. There could be a rise from another school that is trying to combat this and have another NPC party to confront the PCs to join with them or even fight them. This could be a fun campaign. One idea for a spell is to have it carved upon a wall so that the PCs need to copy it where it is. The problem is that it sits at a crossroad in a large dungeon where wandering monsters come or by a portal that lets in undead every so often. Some sort of challenge, like a skill challenge for the party to overcome. Another idea is a thieves' den where the spell dangles as a prize for those completing a challenge, like the D&D movie from 2000AD. This brings in the rogues and other classes to aid in the rewards. Maybe a spell buried in the family crypt of the local king. PCs need to sneak in past guards or magic wards. Maybe a guardian construct protects the crypt. [/QUOTE]
