I'm working on a new magic system now.  As soon as I complete it I'll
post it to the net.  It looks like the spellcaster will need to be part
of the starting team.  Having a spellcasting player should be no problem.
Very Intelligent?  Something may need to be made to replace that one.  Maybe
even spellcaster.  I'm trying to work it so the undead creation problem
(not enough MP) can be solved with the same rules.
