About the spells: I have had some time to think about them and have come to the following conclusion:

The game is supposed to be freeform. I feel that if I added fix spell lists to the game, it would take away a large part of this away. The HP and MP were only added in the beginning along with the basic stats so as to be able to feel what your character is like a bit better.

I would propose that there be no fix spell-system. Apart from not needing several hours, maybe days of thinking, equalising power and all that from me, IMO it would greatly simplify the game.

However I am not the only one concerned by this, so I would be interested, whether the casters in the game would accept running with this system, meaning occasional consultations (would not be necessary, I would be happy also with a system, where you post what you do and how much MP you think it would cost and if it is very far from what I think it should be I would ask for an edit) and possible corrections. Very rarely it could happen that I judge that you do not have enough MP for what you wanted to do, then I would maybe change the magnitude of the spell or ask for an edit.

So to cut a post getting long short, would the casters (currently Tiva, Ghar Dien and Zevin along with DM characters) agree to a system like this?
