This is a long way from anything that could be
immediately implemented, but is an idea I was
toying around with. I think that there should,
to allow for a lot more creativity with character
design, quite a few more second and third circle
words. What would this mean to mages? They would
now have to pick and choose which words they want, if
we had enough. I mean enough words where noone even
possibly *could* get them all with practices available,
and some mages would have to sacrifice some skills
to get some of the words they might want. It would
allow characters to be more custom-tailored to the
players' desires, and would help keep things from
getting old!
I know this would be a major project to implement if
it came to that, requiring so many new spells, lots
of design, coding, etc, but would be quite neat!

Next to impossible to code, and imagine all the whining when people
don't have max cast level at once. And the whining until the
number of practices was raised in order to enable everyone to learn
all words.
I still like the thought, though, I wish I had thoughts. They do
sound nice.

Just in response to Habbeb's question... Based on what was
provided in the skill tree's FAQ on the website, no, new
spell words aren't part of skill trees.
FAQ 1.3 How will skill trees affect magic?
For the most part, they won't. Magic words and spells are not
touched by this upgrade to the code at all.
