Design a Spell Contest

 

  The Design a Spell contest was launched today.  I'm excited to see your ideas.  I know a lot of people will want baselines to create within, after all its hard to design an implementable spell if you don't know exactly what can be done.  But I encourage you to forget the technical limitations for the moment and just design spells that you would love to play with.  Sure it means that some great ideas might not make it to the final 5 because they aren't practical, but I would rather see those dream spells and spend some time to see if we can make them, then limit everyone's creativity.

  Remember we need spells for outside of combat as well as in combat and that we will have global mana by the time these spells are implemented (one mana pool that all that player's casters share).  We are looking for a mix of a good strategic function and cool flavor.\

  Good luck!
