Ie, if you start doing that, the DM is encouraged to twist it and make consequences that make sense in his campaign world. The freedom of wish isn't something that should be mechanically limited any further than it already is. Wish isn't the ultimate player empowerment--it is the ultimate DM empowerment.A player is taking a risk anytime he asks to do anything other than duplicate a lower level spell. Even if the DM gives you what you ask for *this time* there is no guarantee he won't attach consequences the next time the spell is cast. Players (and NPCs) should approach the spell with the respect they would give to a great wyrm, and about as frequently.But I don't want hard rules for it. It takes away from the fear and wonder factors involved.</blockquote>
