Both will depend on how much time I have left over.The resolution system I am planning on doing will use a deck of cards customized by the parts the player is assembled from. Last time I had a deck of card to resolve spells and wanted to expand it to all actions but couldn't figure out a way that I liked. I think I can build hazardous magic into this pretty easily, and I'm hoping I can get some actual discovery into it as well, but I'm not sure how that will work yet.I've figured out how I want the themes to work, but I still need to figure out the setting (medieval fantasy? post-apocalyptic?)</blockquote>
