This is a universe where heroes dominate and clash for power. To represent this, allow players to use a 32 point buy when creating characters. In addition, at each level they may choose either hit points or magicka. Maximise their result for that die. For the other die, they may either roll normally, or take half the maximum result without rolling.

		Magicka Rules

7-
In addition to your hit die for each class, you also possess a magicka die, to be used in the same way, adding your Intelligence, Charisma or Wisdom modifier as appropiate for the class. If your class does not normally gain spells, you may choose which of Intelligence, Charisma, or Wisdom bonus to add. Magicka points gained from different classes stack, and can be spent on any spell.

Casting a spell requires the expenditure of magicka noted in its description. If using a spell from an existing D&D book, this can be taken as roughly the square of the spell level, although the DM may feel free to change this, providing changes are consistent. A 0th level spell costs 1 magicka. Magicka replenishes in same way as spell slots - by resting for 8 hours, or by drinking magicka potions. Any reference to spells per day are ignored, although casters that prepare spells must still do so, and those that do not still only know their normal number of spells.

11
When a metamagic feat alters the spell level, instead add the square of the total level adjustment to the magicka cost - add 1 for an adjustment of one, add 4 for an adjustment of two, and so on. If you would lose a spell slot for any reason, instead lose the square of that spell level from your magicka total for the peroid of time indicated.

Magicka potions may be brewed in the same way as any other potions. They require no specific spell to be known, and restore equal to the related Cure spell - a potion of Restore Moderate Magicka would restore 2d8+1/CL magicka points. Their value is the same as the related Cure potion.

The creation of magical equipment requires a soul gem - a repository of the souls of living beings, used for power. Potions and scrolls do not require experience to create, other items must have their experience cost paid by a soul gem. Once used, a soul gem is destroyed. This cost may not be paid by any other source, including from one's own experience pool. Multiple soul gems may be used on the same enchantment. Excess experience from using a soul gem is lost - a gem may not be partially used.

The soul trap spell is a 2nd level spell costing 4 magicka, with a range of 25'. If the target is slain within this encounter, its soul is placed in the smallest soul gem carried by the caster at the time of death. The souls of sentient creatures require a black soul gem.

A petty soul gem contributes 50xp towards crafting, and is typically filled by the soul of a creature with a CR of 1 or less. A lesser soul gem contributes 100xp, and is filled by the soul of something between CR2 and 6. A common soul gem contributes 250xp, and can contain a soul of a anything between CR7 and 12. A greater soul gem contributes 500xp, and is filled by the soul of a creature between CR13 and 17. A grand soul gem contributes 1000xp, and is filled by the soul of a creature with CR 18 or above. Black soul gems can contain the souls of intelligent creatures, which always count as grand. However, even the possession of the empty gems is considered highly illegal, to say nothing of a filled one.
