Well, that was fun

I thought spellcasters might find this useful. Or not.

Looks like it'll be useful both as a quick reference as well as something to stick on the back of your character sheet to mark which spell lists you know, and plan your progression. I can't speak for anybody else but I'd definitely use it.
 

OK, so here's a challenge.

I need a name for each white box on that chart. A name which describes it succinctly and flavourfully. Anyone care to take a stab at it?

I've started to take a look at it but it's harder than it seems. The Good and Evil virtues were easy but I'm struggling with the rest.

Also I noticed something that might be a bit off with the table. The Virtues section of the current playtest lists Free-Willed as a viable virtue for spells (effecting both Good and Evil) but it's missing on the table. I'm not sure if it was overlooked or if it's been removed since the playtest document was released though.


[EDIT] It's nowhere near finished but I'd love to hear your thoughts on it, be they good or bad, before I finish (Plus I need to get some sleep anyways). Here's what I've got so far:

[/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] I'm not sure how to add lines on a bbcode table so I'm sorry that they're not showing up. Long names included with the Force spells for human-readability (I know they don't all fit with the formula used and some are quite a stretch, but I couldn't think of better options offhand. Suggestions welcome).




Came across a couple other things when I drew up the table:
  • The Virtues section of the current playtest lists Free-Willed as a viable virtue for spells (effecting both Good and Evil) but it's missing on the table. (Listed Above)
  • As of the current playtest document infuse force and nature have no effects and drain force doesn't have any either.
  • Does Heal life heal anything that's living? And Heal death heal anything that's dead? If so what's the purpose of heal Animal/Plant/Fey/Undead? I'm not sure whether whether constructs count as alive, dead, or neither so they may be a useful target but... Unless I'm missing something?
  • You've got the para-elements marked as options for Move but the playtest document only allows for cardinal and unifying elements

It is damnably hard! It may be that it's not possible to do, but I thought some more user-friendly names for spell lists could help immersion a bit.

Attack of the Jello, indeed!
 

Anyone feel like a quick game of spot the difference? This altered chart should hint at some of the changes in the next update!

You might also find some of this interesting. The below has no actual changes; it's simply a reformatting and rearrangement of the same info to help make things clearer. Ignore the heal cantrip reference to virtue. It's heal [creature] or mend [element].

About the only difference i noticed was illusion being replaced by weave and see, and of course the removal of the three lists with no targets that you mentioned earlier. I'll be interested to See how those work, and figure out how to weave them into my playtest.

The new format does look far easier to sort through.

[Edit] you've still got non-cardinal elements listed under move in the new list. Is that a change, or a mistake?

Is there any chance we will get expanded information on the Spell Lists such as examples of what each combination could do?

For instance looking at Abjure/Hex, what would Abjure Space do? My guess only from looking at the table on p117 is that maybe protect against/dispel dimension, teleport, phasing magic. Hex? Unwilling teleport or intangibility?
