[QUOTE="Morrus, post: 6404841, member: 1"] OK, take a look at this. It's a rough draft and very subject to opinion. The spell lists themselves are built using EoM, but a character doesn't have to directly interact with EoM unless he/she decides to start creating spell lists. The thing I like about this is that new spell-lists of any theme can be created ad infinitum, and simply by tagging them with secrets you can give existing traditions access to them. If sometime in a year's time I make a new fiery spell-list, I just tag it [fire] and the firemage is able to learn it, because he knows the[I] secret of fire[/I]. He can learn any spell lists tagged with [fire]. So we have three levels now: [B]Traditions[/B] which discover... [B]Secrets[/B] which provide access to... [B]Spell Lists[/B]. You still have to learn spell lists by spending XP, but the Secrets come for free. You can even give Secrets as treasure. Imagine a quest to discover the lost [I]secret of fish[/I]. Wait, maybe that's not the best example. But you get my meaning! [/QUOTE]
