Living spell
« on: January 22, 2013, 01:09:24 PM »
So I am a Dnd player. One of my favorite things in Dnd is the living spell in the eberron campaign setting. I think it would be a cool concept for a mage wars card.

Living Spell
Type: creature
Cost: X
Action Type: Full
Range: 0-0
Target: zone
School: Arcane(4)
Life: Y
Armor: Z

Attack(s): none

Spellbind

You may bind a non epic attack or incantation spell who's mana cost + spell level is less than X.
Living spell my cast the bound spell once per round for free.
Y is equal to the bound spell's mana cost.
Z is equal to the bound spell's level.

Probably rather broken in its current form, but should get my idea across.

That Thoughtspore looks great!  Sit four of them in a corner with various attack spells, maybe throw Battle Fury or the new Power Strike card on one, then have the Forcemaster charge into the fray.  Makes me wonder what kind of spawnpoint the Forcemaster will have.

I also like your idea of a living spell as a creature separate from the Thoughtspore, though I think you would have to make it so that casting the spell costs something.  Perhaps don't give it channeling, and require a full action to cast the spell regardless of what it is, but make the spell cost half its normal mana cost?
