[QUOTE="garrowolf, post: 5320506, member: 31900"] Not to *just* toot my own horn but my Nexus D20 system does many of those things. It has fast but fairly gritty combat. I have a really good magic system based on novels and comic books and not vancian magic. Each power is a skill with a set of feats under it. So the basic power is something like Fire and then the feats are new ways to use the basic power. So if you want to you can have just that power. Or you can get several powers such as Astral, Shadow, and Fire, or whatever you want. Now there is also the Sorcery power that allows you to take other powers as feats. Then you gain the ability to buy Fire feats and use the Fire power but as a ritual action (Complex Action). So if you have the power directly then most of the actions are simple actions and you do them faster, plus you gain an immunity to even natural Fire based on how good you are with Fire. If you just have it as a sorcery feat then you don't gain the immunity. You could run a Buffy style game where most magic users have Sorcery and Telekinesis. You could run Shadowrun with Sorcery and Astral. You could run Raven from Teen Titans as Sorcery and Shadow and Shift. You can create a Warlock with Totemic and Sorcery. etc. check it out! [/QUOTE]
