Was reading about this wiki https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apotropaic_magic There is a picture there about a wand that provides protection. Then it crossed my mind, why not personalize a wand using spells that you already know? Rather than settle for what was created before, what if a sorcerer wanted to create a wand with other spells, and maybe some other features thrown in? Seems cumbersome to create a rule system with artifice and maybe some of those other smithing options thrown in but its just an idea. I guess there are few of those high level sorcerors kicking about and any time wasted on manufacturing is time not spent in an underwurlde. Just thinking about some original works. What about new potion types? |

What about new potion types? I'm not sure you need a whole system, just maybe something like '5 spells to a wand, closely related spells no MP limit (see Shaun's spell relation chart floating around here somewhere), distant relation 10 MP limit (Level 5 + Level 3 + Level 2, etc.), no relation 7MP or 5MP limit.' Thoughts? |

Well, I figure it would take a page or two, but some originality would be nice, like a wand of whatever magics you would actually use and rename it. Perhaps some basic mechanics that might take up a page. Creation of a theme like staff of a particular nature and give it a suitable name. Thought this might be a good place to brainstorm magic items and potions. |
