Yes, twice the level is somewhat unreasonable, I can see this now.How about this?Learner Level + Level of Spell to be Learned = Minimum Level of Mentor.Thus, if the 5th Level Fighter wanted to learn Fireball, he or she would have to seek out an 8th level mentor. If the 17th level Paladin from the example far above wished to learn Wish, a 26th level Wizard's services need be sought as opposed to those of a 34th level Wizard. In retrospect, the main reason I erred on the side of "high teacher level" was to prevent interparty teaching and mentoring. The easier such a system is made for becoming more powerful, the more subject to abuse it is. In DOUBLE RETROSPECT, I fear that the bulk of this paragraph suggests rules for, indeed, getting spells too easily!Nay. Any sort of "attachment" (like an item or such) can easily be lost, broken, stolen, distorted, drained, or otherwise destroyed. OTOH, knowing a spell in one's brain is an entirely different matter!</blockquote>
