Re: House Rules, Ideas and the Like
Also note, we don't use the term "memorization" to describe the magic system in BFRPG. My rationale is this: It takes time to actually cast a spell, saying the words, making the gestures, and investing the energy in the dweomer. So magic-users do most of the casting in advance, holding th...

Re: House Rules, Ideas and the Like
