Hmm, I like where this is going. I had difficulty doing it because, like you said, Enchantment and Charm are different. If we're splitting things, however, we could make an argument for splitting Necromancy into Life and Death, yes? Or, if we wanted to be elegant, we could keep Necromancy with spells like Animate Dead, Horrid Wilting, Chill Touch (very mage-y Necromancy spells) in the Necromancy category, while putting the Cure spells, Raise Dead, et cetera, into a new category... What if we had a Planar category? This all depends on how thinly we want to classify things, but in the context of this discussion the Cure spells don't belong with Necromancy. I think we could make an argument for putting the Cure spells in a planar-type category (Channeling energy from the Positive Energy plane), as well as spells like Holy Smite/Unholy Blight, Holy Word, Sunray, Teleport Field, and the demon-related spells into that category. Maybe that's a bit too insane, but it's food for thought. I'm not sure where it would all go for opposition schools, but I need sleep now. I'll be back tomorrow and we can reconsider it all.
