It's in the name. The plausibility and detail of the fictional elements are determined by subgenre and focus.There's nothing wrong with reskinning spells. My point is that adapting the D&D spells system to an average sci-fi world by injecting science and balancing it with the existing classes would be as much work or possibly more than creating a new system designed for the setting itself.</blockquote>
