In one of the chapter narratives there was a character that could taste magic. In one of the illustrations, the character was licking a window sill to determine if it was enspelled. I found the idea very strange but quite unique and evocative.Anyway, I digress. What about basing the mechanics around Invocations from Unearthed Arcana (pg 174)? The balancing element here is, like you suggest, a time factor.Unfortunately, it is skill based mechanic (which I know you said you didn’t want), but you can determine which is appropriate on a case by case basis (such as a cooking skill), and give bonuses as you feel are necessary (Scent = +10?)…Just a thought…</blockquote>
