However, anything that requires a special item requires getting hold of that item. The only spell the mage has researched that requires a special focus is Leomund's Secret Chest, for which she had to get a messenger to travel from Venice to northern Norway to hire dwarven smiths, and she's been waiting for months now. I think that balances it a little too much, but hey - the world's slightly low-magic (being medieval Europe).Then again, I don't track XP... or even gp, these days. The campaign's focused more on fighting evil, although the social interludes are often amusing too. Bookkeeping is kept to an absolute tiny minimum in this way.</blockquote>
