[QUOTE="Plane Sailing, post: 3716991, member: 114"] I think that would be too complex to manage. I'd bet that they have three different categories of spells: - a list of 'powers' that can be used at will (possible talent tree talents, with the option for higher level characters to gain upper elements in a tree for more power, perhaps); - a list of spells that can be used per encounter (takes meditation/prayer/reading spell book to re-prepare these spells, so happens after an encounter - like the SAGA force powers) - a list of rituals(?) that are pure vancian preparation. They take a long time to prepare, and once shot they are gone for the next day. You could then have some spells and some rituals that scale fully with caster level (but perhaps start becoming available only at certain levels), other one-off spells and rituals that just exist at a certain spell level. Maybe a given caster can have a certain number of powers, certain number of spells readied and certain number of rituals prepared; higher level characters typically pick more powerful spells and rituals to prepare.
