The effects on the body of channeling that kind of power should be... the power. Give the speaker spells which give him DR and energy resistance.As far as the spell system, you're making one from scatch so it'll probably be tough to get it just right. What about giving the speaker cumulative penalties to the check that disappear eventually. Something like "everytime a speaker channels a word he receives a -2 to Concentration checks to speak words for the next hour." This way he can't use his abilities left and right, but they're still fairly easy to make use of. This time can lessen as the class progresses too.</blockquote>
