[QUOTE="Argus Decimus Mokira, post: 753591, member: 10239"] Thanks for the ideas guys Looking at it again, I think Mistrum is correct - it might be a trifle better than a cleric, but not appreciably so. I think the progression/known could be ported right over. Another thing i was thinking of was ripping off the Shugenja instead of the sorcerer ... same spell progression/spells per day, but organized in a way that might help with the situational spells Oni mentioned. Ay every spell level the shugenja gains a school spell that is predetermined for him, a number of spells associated with his element, and a smaller number of spells that can be chosen from any element. For instance, a 1st level shugenja knows (1x predetermined, 2x element, 2x any element) 0th level spells, and (1x predetermined, 1x element, 1x any element) 1st level spells (same as sorcerer with 5x 0th and 3x 1st). What if, instead of having a predetermined school spell, the druid can change that spell every day, choosing any spell on the druid spell list that can be cast. A sample first level druid made with this system would have the following spells (say he chooses water as his element): [B]0th[/B] - Known: create water (water), cure minor wounds (water), virtue (earth), flare (fire) plus one spell chosen each day. Today he thinks he'll be going underground, so he chooses light (fire) [B]1st[/B] - Known: cure light wounds (water), obscuring mist (air) plus one spell chosen each day. Today he chooses entangle (earth). Just a random thought that popped into my head int he shower today. Tell me what you think. -Matt [/QUOTE]
