And then there are spell that have a cost of D20 (i.e. the cost is entirely random). Those spells all have something in common, that's not at all "good". Sometimes the effect depends on the cost that was rolled, sometimes it doesn't. Having such a different mechanic in addition to whatever differences your descriptions have can be a nice bonus. | |
