[QUOTE="BryonD, post: 3911148, member: 957"] Every one of these clearly gives some idea of what the spell does implictly. They completely fail to compare. Your claim that this is precendented is not accurate. Golden Wyvern School of Magic doesn't tell you anything either. As I said earlier, it is easy to keep straight right now because there is only one case. When there are 12 or 40, it will suck (even more than it already does). Player: What does "Golden Wyvern Adept" do? DM: It makes you better at Golden Wyvern school stuff Player: :confused: You don't need to know jack about Evard to recall what Evard's Black Tentacles does. Same with every other spell you listed. And if you don't like shape spell all you need in your homebrew notes is something along the lines of "Golden Wyvern Adept" replaces shape spell. This keeps the flavor AND avoids confusion AND helps new DMs more AND allows different flavor if you just happen to think that "Golden Wyvern" is a really dumb choice for a name. Quite simply, this would be better in every way. [/QUOTE]
