In fact, skip "somatic" and "verbal" entirely. If the rules say "you need to be able to speak and you must have one hand free" then add a line to each and every spell with an exception: "You can cast this spell even while tied up" (or some easy language like that) and then make sure that only applies for spells where it actually makes sense (keeping the number of exceptions as low as possible).If a class relies on holding weapons or shields in his hands, don't make him have to shuffle that around. If he gets spells, assume he has learned to cast them without any hands free! (Either that, or give him only out-of-combat spells)</blockquote>
