[QUOTE="Michael Morris, post: 4717453, member: 87"] This isn't a trust issue - I don't know where you're getting that at. The point of the setting as it is currently written is that spells and the like are attached to color. Learning a spell of a color puts the player under the influence of that color. Because of the way the system currently works any spellcasting class can learn any spell, but no one character can short of acquiring on the order of 30th level spell slots or the like (in which case they're already broken beyond repair, and the ability to use any spell is the least of the DM's concerns in that theoretical situation). As to supporting all 18 classes? Meh - I used to try poupouri world a long time ago but it's been a long time since I'd allow anything. Honestly I can't allow dragonborn or tiefling into the setting as is so why should I worry about whether or not all 18 classes are supported. PHB II and the discussions I'll be bringing up over the next few weeks in this forum are basically it. If I can't figure out how to get 4e to work with my setting then I guess I'll live with being a grognard. One thing I have learned, 4e is more deeply flawed as a D&D base ruleset than 3e is despite being a major improvement over it in several areas. It has promise so I'm going to try to come up with something just like I did with Player's Option. [/QUOTE]
